fibromyalgia

Avatar n tn I am going through my first cycle of IVF, and my partner and I would like to donate any "extra" embryos for stem cell research. Does anyone know who we donate them too? I can't find any info online. All I can find is embryo donation for people looking to have a baby, and though I find that a very nice thought, we are not comfortable with the idea that our child will have siblings out there that we don't know. Any info would be great. Thanks!

It is the best way to stay informed and make sure that your physician is informed.

196469 tn?1365387975 Kelly Ripa was on Good Morning America today talking about her deal w/Electrolux and OVCA research. For every TEAL washer and dryer purchased, Electrolux will give $200 to research. Here is a link http://www.celebrity-gossip.net/celebrities/hollywood/kelly-ripas-electrolux-launch-207470/ I also heard a new song today about cancer. It is called Stand Up and it was awesome............. I don't know who sings it but I will find out.

Avatar m tn I found this new research by Dr. Catherine M.Pittman - one of the foremost brain researchers in the country, to be interesting. We are finding through both animal and human research that the medication class of benzodiazepines may actually prevent learning, both neuronal and cognitive and may prevent long term anxiety recovery. Our work has shown that the neuronal process for learning and also the process for unlearning (called extinction) is slowed or prevented by this class of medications.
Avatar f tn Hello, My name is Sunny and my best friend,Dorethy Allen, died of breast cancer 19 years ago. They've come a long way in finding a cure since then. I would like to donate 25% of the net profits from my bakery , sunnybutterpoundcakes.webs.com to breast cancer research in honor of Dorethy and all survivors. I would also like to do something else for all survivors but don't know what. Does anyone have any ideas?
Avatar n tn Fibromyalgia can last forever. There are treatments and even possible cures out there (research protocols). Fatigue, dizziness and so many other symptoms are common in fibro patients and in fact, 29% of fibro patients have a positive ANA titer. I hope that you will consider joining us on MedHelp's fibro/CFS board. I'm the Community Leader there.
Avatar f tn 1. Liver enzymes were off, now they're normal 2. Triglycerides were off, now normal 3. Blood pressure have been a little high due to anxiety, I don't know if that could affect me? 4. I faint. And get dizzy. These are all because of electrolytes being off in my blood 5. I'm on Provera for PCOS (polycystic ovarian disease) and I don't know if I can be on med and donate blood 6. I'm on Gabapentin for nerve pain 7. I'm on amitriptyline for anxiety and stomach pains 8.
Avatar f tn I know that one can donate EBV positive plasma for in vitro diagnostic research purposes. What about regular red cross donations? Do they screen for EBV? If so, can you get EBV from a blood transfusion?
Avatar f tn I am torn about what to do with the frozen eggs. Part of me thinks that we should donate them. But the thought of somone making money off my eggs, not to mention not knowing who got my babies. But the thought of destroying them makes my stomach turn. Any thoughts?
Avatar m tn Unfortunately, you will carry the HCV antibodies for a long time; probably for life. This status will preclude donation of blood/plasma, regardless of HCV RNA status. I recently inquired about donating my body for research purposes to the University of California, and was routinely denied. I informally appealed this decision, without luck. Kind hearted of you to ask; I have heard that some facilities might take organ donation to other HCV-infected patients in a pinch, but I’ve yet to find one.
Avatar n tn Because we are not allowed to post any personal contact information on this site, I have some other recommendations for where you can donate your sterile, unused pump supplies. In your local area, look for a chapter of Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), the same group that sponsors this website on Med Help. JDRF staff are in contact with many families for whom your supplies would be such a valuable gift.
572651 tn?1530999357 And yes, the blood bank folks had my complete med history and they rules have been revised so MS patients can donate as long as they are ambulatory. I'm wondering if perhaps the blood donation set off some strange MS reaction - anyone out there with a clue?
Avatar f tn I think it is awesome that this center is not only going to benefit people who have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but it will also benefit people with fibromyalgia, autism, atypical MS and if I remember right... multiple chemical sensitivities as well. For everyone here, please remember that this institute has already come up with a blood test to diagnose CFS. From what I've heard and understand, the test should be available in a year (hopefully FDA approved by then).
Avatar f tn Hi everyone! My boyfriend has sickle cell and I've been doing some research and found that cord blood may be a potential cure, my sister is pregnant and wants to donate her baby's cord blood to him and I was wondering exactly how that would work and how we find out if her baby is a match??
Avatar f tn I still hv no idea if i can donate here or not. I live in Pakistan n i hv to do a research if there is any hosp here which deals this kind of donation. I still need some info as for whats best to be done. I really want to donate since i read about it on web.
Avatar m tn Hi I am pretty for sure I have Fibromyalgia some of my symptoms include Soar and stiff muscles in my legs and I just have a Flu like feeling all the time and also the pressure points you have. I have those also. Does this sound like Fibromyalgia to you.
554442 tn?1221235225 Great fibro info ! Here is what Dr. Mark Shaw (author of "Beat Fibromyalgia and Fatigue") says about the possible triggers. I know I read the actual research study on this as well: Fibromyalgia/CFS can be caused by a whole range of factors. All of which, it is most likely your doctor or practitioner will not be able to diagnose.
