Avatar f tn s primary function is to RAPIDLY convey information to FIRST RESPONDERS who are NOT doctors. There are a lot of medical terms that first responders simply are not familiar with, so it is best to keep it simple, include information that will be most likely to be helpful to those folks in light of what they will be seeing and the decisions they will be having to make, and to put more detailed information in your purse/wallet/backpack/glove compartment (i.e.
Avatar f tn I am 51 and am very frightened as last week I suffered my first ever seizure. It lasted about 30 seconds and I was just apparently staring glassily at my husband after shaking. I have been told I won't be able to drive for a year. My CT scan was clear though. I'm asthmatic as well, and at the time of seizure had been in intense pain from a urinary tract infection.
1986676 tn?1329862471 The did say new drugs show hope as the cocktail approach enlarges but it is unlikely that cirrotic non respomders will be excepted in the first studies, just non responders. Perhaps that 15 will go to 40 with additional drugs so ill just hang in there till these new additions become available in trials. Lots of love to all you special med help people.
Avatar f tn Both times my ivf cycles were converted to iui. Both of them failed. Were any of you poor responders or have ivf cycles like mine that were converted to iui. Did you go on to have better cycles with more follicles. I'm just afraid that 5 is all i'll ever end up with. i could use some encouragement.
Avatar f tn Gradually (in the span of a minute or two) I lost the rigidity and my body began to feel normal again. Soon first responders were there and I told them my fear of TIA. They took blood sugar and blood pressure and it was normal. Did the FAST test and it was normal. I went to the ER and they conducted some blood tests and an EKG, everything was normal. Electrolytes, blood sugar, everything normal. Does this sound like a TIA?
Avatar f tn You may not even read this comment since it has been 2 years since you posted but I had my first seizure at the age of 52 (late last year) It was diagnosed as a complex partial seizure. I lost conciesness 2 time within a minute. I was unable to speak or see and although I could hear my wife yelling to me, she seemed far away. I came out of it and went into hyperventalation. I was wrung out when it was over. I slept half the time for the next 3 days.
1653487 tn?1303524162 I just recently had my first (that I am aware of) seizure at 35 years of age... My husband witnessed the episode but I have no memory of it happening. This happened in my sleep this past Sunday night (March 27th)... After two days in the hospital and the plethora of tests, the MRI came back normal but the EEG showed abnormalities in the back right lobe of my brain. I was placed on an anti-seizure medication - Keppra 1000mg and told that I can not drive for at least 6 months...

Avatar f tn Our 4 year old Aussie just had a first seizure this morning. I have dealt with seizures before in another dog, but the aftermath of this is very different and hard. The jerking and then the stiffness lasted about 5 minutes or so, but when he started to come out of it and relax, he jumped up and started barking fiercely at us like he didn't know us. We got the other dogs out of the room in case of agitation or attack.
479244 tn?1271563659 Prove 3 is (was) the first trial held by Vertex for previous non-responders to SOC tx (see below announcement). I was in the 24 week arm that got VX950 + INF +RBV for 12 weeks followed by 12 weeks of SOC. Technically I wasn't a non-responder to SOC because I got a 2+log drop by week 4 on SOC, then a slow decline from 3M to 9,600. Around week 32 it went up, viral breakthrough, game over. Like dmhrdh said, Prove 3 people had previous treated (some multiple times) unsuccessfully.
762726 tn?1234708736 WHY DO THE FIRST RESPONDERS NOT WANT TO FACE THE MUSIC THEY ARE IN REAL DANGER AND I WANT TO FIND OUT WHY THEY DO NOT WANT TO GET INVOLVED AND HELP THEM SELVES AND THEIR LOVED ONES ,WHO WATE AT HOME FOR THE UNKNOWN TO COME HOME FROM WORK WITH THEM. I HAD THIS HAPPEN AND WHEN I FOUND OUT AFTER 15 YEARS OF PROTECTING THE PUBLIC AND BEING EXPOSED TO KNOWN JUNKIES AND ALL KINDS OF CRIMINALS. I TESTED POSITIVE FOR HEPATITIS C 1A AND THE ONLY REAL EXPOSURE WAS AT WORK.

Avatar f tn Vertex hopefully will get approval for their new drug to treat non-responders first. Even so if you watch your diet with no alcohol you should be ok for the regular approval in the next few years.
Avatar f tn I am having my first-ever root canal tomorrow, and I'm terrified. Will the procedure hurt? I've never been a fan of shots, but several years ago when having my wisdom teeth removed I went into a seizure as the oral surgeon injected the anesthetic, so I'm really nervous, and I keep hearing horror stories about people accidentally getting painful shots directly into the nerve, and how the procedure itself is extremely painful. I am not currently in any pain.
Avatar n tn Having a seizure for the first time is very frightening. I too had a seizure for the first time in 2009. My seizures are complex and some of the symptoms your experiencing may be from a fear of having another seizure. With that said, you should see a Neurologist who specializes and treats epilepsy to make sure these symptoms are not different kinds of seizure or symptoms of epileptic discharges. Try to keep your blood sugar, stress and sleep patterns stable.
Avatar m tn I was looking at some phase 3 results for telaprevir and non responders and it sounds like non reponders who have telaprevir added to int-reb have a 44% success rate. I'm not a real gambler but I dont like those #s. They're better that nothing, true, but still ! lol If anyone has a somewhat rosier outlook I'm all ears !

Avatar m tn If you were UND along the way but the virus later returned then you relapsed. If you never achieved UND status then you are a non-responder. I'm guessing you relapsed because current futility rules state that non responders are not supposed to stay on tx past 12 weeks. I'm so sorry to hear that you did relapse. If you were UND for a long time it at least may have given your liver a break from the relentless assault of the virus. I hope you can get rid of it the next time around.
