598902 tn?1219887213 I am a new patient of the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Center of Philadelphia. So far they have discovered that I have hypothyroid, reactivated EBV, and elevated HHV6 when other doctors didn't have a clue. I just started on bio-identical T3 hormone for my thyroid which is suppose to boost my immune system and some other supplements to get my body ready to fight the chronic infection. Two months from now the doctor is going to begin me on anti-viral treatment.

Avatar f tn I am a new patient of the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Center in Philadelphia, PA. You do have to pay for your visits and any treatments (e.g. IV) upfront and then the center gives you the appropriate diagnostic codes and information to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. My insurance company reimbursed me for some of it, but it is still rather expensive.
Avatar m tn Does YAG treatment put the retina at risk? I am learning to play the saxaphone and wonder if the pressure created from playing this instrument is harmful to the eyes. Sounds like a strange question but when I had a breathing test the technician asked if I had recent surgery or eye problems because of the exertion.
Avatar f tn I am a 44 yo female who up until this past 2 years was healthy and served as a volunteer firefighter. I would have occasional muscle twitches and spasms, but usually wrote them off. But that changed in February. I woke up unable to see out of my right eye. I has weakness in both my right arm and leg. My balance was off and experienced vertigo. At that time, the MRI with contrast showed several lesions at various spots in the brain and spinal cord.
Avatar m tn 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. Neurons must fire to rewire: this is basic to all neuroplasticity and learning.

Avatar n tn Dr. Lipschultz at the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Center of Philadelphia reported to me that even igenix can produce false negavtive tests. He treats for Lyme based on symptoms and doesn't rely heavily on any Lyme tests because they are so unreliable.

Avatar f tn I'm so sorry he is suffering and having to go through the frustrating journey of getting a diagnosis. Can you tell me what kind of doctor did his testing? A rheumatologist is the best one to diagnose and treat. And if you are seeing one and he left it like this then you need a second opinion. A positive ANA does not indicate fibromyalgia. However, fibromyalgia often does go hand in hand with some auto-immune diseases. My ANA was positive one time and negative the next.
