depression

Avatar n tn Approximately two years ago I start experiencing pain and twitching and after a lot of tests and a nerve biopsy it was concluded that I have nerve damage from B6 toxicity .I have numbness in my feet and hands, tingling all over and am very tired all the time.I am going to start working with my family doctor to get this reversed. I will post and let you know how it goes.
Avatar f tn Nerve pain should be treated with something like neurotin or Lyrica that specifically works on nerve pain. Narcotics will not do much to help that sort of pain. Hope you get to feeling better soon!
Avatar m tn I have tried all sorts of cushion. I think this pain is caused by a nerve somewhere. Im having an MRI scan next week. Nerve root inflammation has been suggested. Im trying acupuncture, and its possible this is beginning to have a slight effect, in that the duration I can sit has increased a few minutes. This new pain is baffling, as I cannot think of anything that would have brought it on.
Avatar m tn Hello, Sexual problem or weakness is also known as erectile dysfunction. The causes are many like diabetes, depression, autonomic nervous system problem, excessive alcohol ingestion or tobacco smoking etc. You may need to consult your doctor to see which amongst these causes are responsible for your problem. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar m tn The only medication that helps with nerve pain is nerve meds like Xanax Valium, Gabitril, ect I have permanent nerve damage and took Gabitril for a while then when my symptoms lessened started taking the Valium as needed. The Valium also helps with leg spasms. Complex B vitamins help to heal the nerves. I was on a medication called Mentanx which is just a complex b vitamin mix and it was working. Unfortunately I have herniated disc and had to stop due to the pain.
Avatar f tn Hi does anyone have nerve issues due to hashi? I have mild hypothyroidism but very high tpo. I feel like I have peripheral neuropathy in one leg? Anyone else with simular symptoms?
230948 tn?1235844329 I get alot of nerve pain with my fibro and with most illness like MS etc there is evidence for this with lesion seen in brain and spine so what causes the fibro nerve pain i can be in agony for a day or mths and then suddenly it goes and they can never find anything on the mri, do you think in time they will find a mri stronger enough to pick up these differences? is the hyper sensitivity where i cant bare to be touched a type of nerve pain too?
Avatar n tn yep, it's nerve pain between the shoulder blades. Do you know what the problem is? Did you have an MRI? Depending on what the problem is, a chiropractor might be helpful... but it all depends on the problem. My Neuro has told me never to let anyone manipulate my neck because of my large cervical herniations. So, again - IF your Dr gives you the ok - go see a chiropractor (always check with them first)... they can really can help in some instances...
209591 tn?1267414714 s advice to take Lyrica. That is also a drug for nerve pain. I have back pain from a nerve problem that doctors missed for a long time, and when I took Lyrica, it was the only thing, including ineffective opiates, that stopped my back discomfort. So, Lyrica is another one to consider, perhaps, for your Lyme symptoms. Patsy, I didn't mean to get all worked up over our opposing views on Lyrica a few days ago, I always like a lively debate, didn't mean to get personal about it.
Avatar f tn Hi I hope this will help! Vitamin B-12 deficiency causes nerve pain or tingling, dementia, mental illness, tremors and difficulty walking. Also when vitamin B-12 and vitamin D deficiency together can mimic multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome and postpartom depression/phychosis. The way I found this info is I have some of these symtoms. I searched (surfed) the internet individual searches like vitamin A deficiency symptoms.and so on.
Avatar f tn You may have a condition called meralgia parasthetica. This is pressure on a nerve that causes this pain and also you will feel pain or numbness on the skin. If you are overweight, the only way to stop this, or from it getting worse is to lose weight. Groin pay can also indicate osteoarthritis in the hips. I would suggest you see your doctor so that he can evaluate and find what is causing this problem. Best wishes.
Avatar m tn Im not a doc but had these signs in the past and turned out to be pinched nerve from lifting boat. The nerve eventually broke and i lost feeling on the bottom side of my little finger. Tingling was the nerve being pinched. Did they do and EKG with your tests and was it done after you had these symptoms?
Avatar n tn Hi, I think you should be seeing an orthopedist and a neurosurgeon at earliest to further evaluate your condition and imaging study if required. Low back pain affects up to 85% of the population at some point in their lives. Low back pain is one of the leading causes of disability in patients <50 years old. Herniation of a lumbar disc is one of the major causes of acute and chronic lower back pain which may be associated with leg pain, weakness, and numbness, often referred to as sciatica.
Avatar n tn I'm not sure if I have pac or pvc, I only know I can feel the skip. Sometimes they will come in bigeminy where every second beat is skipped and sometimes trgeminy where every third beat is skipped, this lasts about 5-6 seconds. My family all suffer from skippedheart beats, my brother has bibigeminal pulse where his heart skips every second beat 24/7 but this has never caused problems for anyone in my family so it must not be life threatening just nerve racking .
Avatar f tn Ever since then i started experiencing tingling and pain up and down my arms and the pain is now going to my legs. It is generalized to my joints mainly, there are times where the top of my skin on my arm is tingling and numb. My Dr. ran calcuim, tsh, sed rate, ana and a lot more that i cannot think of at the moment. The pain continues and nothing has worked to keep the pain low or away. Six months after that started My joints started swelling. Mainly my bursa but my wrists swell at times too.
Avatar n tn There is a mild broad-based disc bulge with a superimposed moderate central disc extrusion which, along with a mild bilateral facet and ligamentam flavum hypertrophy causes mild impingement of the traversing l5 nerve roots in the subarticular recesses. The disc bulge causes mild inferior narrowing of both rt and lt neural foramen but without impingement of the L4 nerve roots. What?
Avatar n tn t have fibromyalgia--there are no sore spots on my body, etc--no muscle pain/irritation. All of my pain is nerve pain--nerve pain in my back, in my legs, in my head... EVERYWHERE. I'm on Lyrica, which helps a lot - was up to 600 mg a day (the max) but thanks to the Prednisone I'm down to taking it once a day - max of 150 mg. I take a ton of pain pills, ibuprofen, beta blockers (thanks to the mystery palpitations), I'm on stomach meds thanks to all of this drug intake...
Avatar f tn No tylenol or ibuprofen was helping with her pain so the hospital told her it might be stress and gave her morphine. That did help with the pain but she couldn't function properly. She went to see her regular doctor today and the doctor diagnosed her with Neuralgia. Can Neuraligia come from nowhere and hit you like this or was it caused by the little bump on her head?
Avatar f tn Causes Causes of itchy skin include: Skin conditions. Many skin conditions itch, including dry skin (xerosis), eczema (dermatitis), psoriasis, scabies, burns, scars, insect bites and hives. Internal diseases. Itchy skin can be a symptom of an underlying illness.

Avatar n tn I do know that FOR ME my Dr has me on 180mg of Cymbalta its a Anti/depressant and it works with pain meds and will help with nerve pain. But bottom line that is something you and your Dr need to talk about Good Luck PS I have suffered depression my whole adult life, with me the pain meds seemed to aggravate my dep.
2169353 tn?1337797093 I have also found that my prolonged use of my pain med mixed with my unending pain has caused depression and anxiety. Do not anticipate that, but if you feel you are already suffering from that duo, it helps to be treated before you start tapering. You can do it!! Praises to your wife for being behind you and not letting you spiral down!!!
Avatar m tn what are other causes for the pancreas to become inflammed, to the point the pain sent me to the hospital, other than booze as I haven't drank heavily for years and now only have 1 or 2 drinks a month if that. the Doctors are persistant in saying that this is alcohol related but, I haven't had a drink in three weeks prior to this incodent. Please help me to understand!!! This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/522945'>pancreatitius</a>.
