Avatar m tn I finished my second round of TX about 7 weeks ago and most side effects have gotten much better. Depression and brain fog have not. First TX in 08 everything improved very quickly. Has anyone else had this problem. Hope this is not a stupid question to ask.

Avatar n tn I believe that you and your doctors should take a multidimensional approach in the treatment of your depression. Drugs like the SSRI's are only one aspect of the treatment and it is important to have a sociological approach to it (like peer groups or support groups). Depression can indeed cause sensation of severe fatigue that is very hard to explain. Regards and God bless.
Avatar f tn Hepatologists are more knowledgeable about hep C treatment and its side effect management than GI Drs, and if possible, you should have one in charge of your treatment. Also, if there is any chance of pregnancy, you may have to delay your treatment as the ribavirin caused birth defects. (If you plan on being sexually active, your Dr should have you on birth control for the duration of the treatment and 1 year after.
Avatar f tn Hi it's been a while. I am passed the pity depression stage. Now I'm just mad. But that comes from having the people around you that you trust, take advantage of you after you have done nothing but support them. I would call it my " looking out for number one" stage and don't cross me cause I will pounce.
Avatar f tn Other factors that may induce your migraine attack may be pills, stress or depression, bright lights, loud noise and traveling. The mainstay of the migraine treatment is always to identify the triggering factors and to avoid them. Triggering factors could be different foods such as cheese, chocolate, alcohol and even few fruits. I would suggest careful record of events that have proceeded with the attack and avoid those factors.
Avatar f tn I also had a stroke 16 months ago located in the brain stem/ left thalamus and have recurrent headaches probably two a week, sometimes very dibilitating. I have yet to find anything to help..but of course my doctor doesnt seem to find interest in what type of headach it is... Did you have any luck? Im a curious Kimberly.
Avatar m tn Thank you for your question. Although without being able to examine you I can not offer you the specific advice on diagnosis and treatment that you need, but I would try to provide you some relevant information about your health concern. There might be two possibilities here that need to be evaluated thoroughly. First, one sided throbbing (or sharp) headache & orbital pain (eye pain) with numbness symptoms could be suggestive of migraine.
Avatar n tn Another possibility is Cervical spondylosis or pinched nerve in cervical spine in which pain may be referred and perceived as occurring in the back of head, shoulders, arms or chest, rather than just the neck. Other symptoms may include vertigo, nausea (dizziness).
Avatar f tn I am experiencing a whooshing sound that is in sync with my pulse. I also get a severe pain in both eyes. My doctor has ordered a carotid ultrasound. However, I Googled my symptoms, and wonder if I have hypotensive intracranial pressure. Would an ultrasound find that? I have had these symptoms for some time, but they have recently become more severe and bothersome.
Avatar f tn In Sept. '07 I had fallen 5' onto my face/head and felt like my brain was coming out of my head.
Avatar f tn Fibro is believed to be caused by over active nerve receptors in the brain so the gabba works to calm them down. It also works good on depression. It has really helped my mood. Can you get to a Dr that would consider this treatment?
Avatar m tn Hello! I'm posting here because I've been reading a lot of the posts and feeling such relief that I'm not the only person feeling how I feel. So here's what's going on with me. I was diagnosed with Grave's disease when I was 19, so I've always dealt with some degree of fatigue. I had radioactive iodine and am on replacement therapy. Anyway, I didn't notice the fatigue and depression creeping on because of my thyroid issue.
Avatar f tn First of all find a new doctor...one who has your best interest at heart. It sounds to me like you are depressed which causes us to not want to do anything, sleep a lot, have no motivation to do anything, and physically hurt. Make an appt. to see a psychiatrist so the two of you can decide the best course of treatment for you. I recommend a psychiatrist because they are most knowledagble with the kinds of medication to treat depression.
Avatar m tn Thank you for your question. You need to evaluate migraine like headache possibility here that can be throbbing, limited to one sided of head and preceded by aura (starts with blurred vision). Triggering factors could be different foods such as cheese, chocolate, alcohol and even few fruits. Other factors that may induce your migraine attack may be stress or depression, bright lights, loud noise and traveling.
897070 tn?1320652629 I used Sho-Saiko-To (a hepatitis treatment used in Japan), took tons of blood-building vitamins -especially folic acid and vitamin B complex, ate well rounded meals and got plenty of exercise, and cut out alcohol completely. I also had my grumpy gallbladder removed. My viral load dropped from 465,000 to 65,000 and my liver enzymes dropped to normal ranges. 4 weeks after starting treatment, my hep C was undetectable and remained that way. (I'm 2 years post treatment now and still UND!
Avatar f tn i was diagnosed with hep c in 2004 and its took me 7 years to get the treatment due to the fact i used to be a self harmer and the treatment could make you deppressed, i started 16 weeks ago and iv never been more mentally stable, i no longer take my anti-depressants of which iv been on for almost 16 years (since i was 16), what is getting me down is the weight loss and my skin has started to peel, does anyone else have that problem?
Avatar n tn I am former smoker now but it hasnt been very long since i did quit smoking. I dont know what to do, i am going for 2nd ct scan in 4 months but that doesnt get rid of the fear. What happens if it is cancer from smoking then what? What is the 5year survival rate i have read about with lung cancer? Whats the percentage of chance that it is cancer i have researched this and came up with several answers?
Avatar f tn re not already on anti-depressants, they may be recommended before you start treatment as the treatment drugs can make depression worse.
1691275 tn?1322327507 ve been suffering from vertigo, fatigue, a sort of pinching pressure around and behind my eyes - especially while walking, talking, or driving - and, most alarmingly, a feeling of cognitive detachment and rather severe depression for almost three months now. I got a CT scan a few weeks ago, and the doctor said, "I have great news: you have massive sinus disease!" (Great news because he didn't see a tumor or aneurysm.
