invega
Finally, since about year he began giving him INVEGA (paliperidone) injection 50 mg which he is fine with it.
The problem is that he has become sperm non-existent as he told me.
Will it disappear in case he stop taking the injection after a long period of use???? I am very confused, particularly as he wants to get married and be a father.
For the past couple years I have been on paliperidone which is generic for invega which I know can cause extreme weight gain. Couple that with my increasingly poor eating habits, I definitely ballooned in weight. For about the past two months I have gone on a heavy calorie restriction that I know is deemed to be unsafe and unhealthy. I want to say now that with respect, I would prefer you focus on my question at hand and not about telling me to eat more food than I currently do. Thanks.
Well will wonders never cease? Are we surprised about the information? I guess they had to spend money on something after they couldn't buy donuts for doctors offices anymore.
This refers to a Sentinel node biopsy I had 6 years ago. The surgeon suggested it and I blindly trusted him to have it done. First, no family was allowed in with me. (If they had, they would have realized the trauma that I was going through). With the first injection, I bolted upright, fully screaming. It was the WORST pain I have ever been through. He had his assistants push me back down on the table and kept going with me screaming nonstop. I was so frightened. I was in a daze.
Have any of you chronic pain sufferers noticed how many of our fellow patients who surround us in the waiting room seem to laugh and talk and never dwell on why they are really at the Pain Clinic in the first place. This annoys the hell out of me. These very same people will mope and drag theirselves into the office, check in at the sign up desk, and once that is done start socializing.
I was wondering if anyone else here was considered "high risk" for treatment (the "typical" treatment w/ pegasys (interfuron) and copegasys (ribaviron) and what their experience has been with both access to Doctors willing to try the therapy with them being "high risk" patients, and the therapy itself.
I am wondering if anyone has ideas what we can do as chronic pain patients do to change our laws. Do we get a class action attorney? Do we get petition send to Congress? I know with as many people who are legitimate pain we can do something if we join together. Anyone have ideas?
m quite knowlegable about transmission from blood borne diseases
However I, no too long ago, handled a patients (hiv and hep status unknown)blood samples after a phlebotomy done with a canula (wearing latex gloves).
Got some blood on the gloves (as expected) and disposed of it, washing my hand with soap and water right afterwards
I remembered then that I had a two or three tiny puncture wound from the previous day (from unrelated injury- doing some home chores).
I was a cna years ago... I remember reading about how elderly patients should not be lay on their left side for too long because it hinders blood flow. I want to find the written material on this before I share it aloud to a class. I feel it will be in a cna book for elderly care- thank you.
Signs include slurred speech and difficulty in balance. Is this common for cancer patients or something more. She is taking morphine for the pain, but they seem to think it isn't that. She didn't take any the last couple of days, yet the symptoms are still there. I know that every person is different when it comes to cancer, but what should we expect in the comming weeks as the chemo has stopped. Could she feasibly live for another few months in the amount of pain she's in?
thank yo for your feedback. I have been off of SSRI's for all most 1 year. I weened off slowly and still had terrible nausea and pain in the process. The reason I came off of the Paxil is that I read that the SSRI's only help about 15% of patients with GAD, social phobias etc. I occassionaly take alprazolam when i feel the flight response.
How many of PAIN MANAGEMENT patients have the same problems out there? Pain management doesn't help you and you have to fight with SSD for your legal right to collect what is rightfully yours? The other problem you get hit with is now your local pharmacy which always refilled any of your prescriptions in the past up to six days early now has got you waiting till the last 30th day.
Four ongoing Phase 3 studies will support Gilead’s initial regulatory filing in mid-2013 for an all-oral therapy with sofosbuvir plus RBV among genotype 2/3 treatment-naïve, treatment-experienced and interferon-intolerant patients, and for sofosbuvir in combination with RBV and peg-IFN among treatment-naïve patients with HCV genotypes 1, 4, 5 and 6.
