Is there a cardiac rehabilitation center in your area? If so, I strongly advise your husband to participate. Exercise is done while wired up and one gains confidence as success is achieved. That being said, is he taking beta blockers? If so, it may be almost impossible for his heart rate to exceed 100 beats per minute, and the rules for aerobic exercise and heart beat are thrown out the window... the rehab folks teach "perceived exercise thresholds" instead.
Has anyone on here been to or known anyone that has been to Haven House Rehab Center in Oxford, MS??? I will be going in a couple of days and just curious if anyone has an opinion on it.
Also, to all the women.... I haven't had a period since jan 19. The only other times I have skipped, I was pregnant but I have taken 2 tests and they were both negative. Can withdrawals from lortab cause you to miss a cycle for 2 months? Has anyone else experienced this as a side effect of detox and relapse?
anyone have a family member in drug rehab? my DH has been gone 6 days into his 30 days of treatment. i am left alone with a three year old.. i want him to get help for drugs and depression, but now i am left alone with my son and i am now severly depressed, lonely, hurt, feeling guilty, and so on, and so on. his problem has torn me apart. i am a nervous wreck. i dont know what to do, or who to talk to. i am begging for some kind of help.. someone to talk to, somewhere to go.
ve heard on our community and from others, too. The link is in our Health Pages or comes up on top if you put it in as NY Thyroid Center.
Keep us posted and good luck. I had micro's so the need isn't great for specialized care for me at this point beyond a good good endo who specializes in thyroids and emphasis on thy cancer.
Hello everyone. My journey with endometriosis started when I was 15. I am now 30. I started getting the very bad cramps, long and heavy periods, and most important, the horrific pains that drops us to the floor. My mom had me to multiple doctors and all they came up with was bad periods and cramps. Nothing done. One doctor even tried telling me that I was lactose intolerant and the pain was being caused from eating ice cream. Yea! What a quack.
There are several types of muscle disorders that can lead to intermittent elevations in CK with intermittent worsening pain. These include glycogen storage disorders such as Pompe, which you mention above, but also others, that may be associated with a normal routine muscle biopsy, but that can be diagnosed with specific staining. Other muscle disorders that would require special stains to diagnose include some of the dysferlinopathies and other rare muscle disorders.
We do not have thousands of dollars to send her to a medical detox center. If she agrees, we will be bringing her to our home which is in a different state. We are well aware of how painful this process can be as we have all witnessed it once before when she came to visit and took all of her pills in 3 days. She currently has a doctor prescribing her morphine for pain, but she also buys from the street.
I would start by telling him/her about her addiction so that s/he can refer her to an inpatient rehab center. When she is done with rehab, she can go to Narcotics Anon meetings, and see/do whatever else they recommend at the rehab center.
Now, there are doctors that specialize in addiction and pain management, but it really seems like she needs to get into rehab...fast.
Hopefully others with more experience will chime in.
m not sure I fully understand your post, but have you gone to the Langone Dysautonomia Center in NYC? Were you, or your child diagnosed with a genetic Dysautonomia?

Now we have had her in a rehab center for 3 weeks and she has been detoxed and sober now for over a week. The real work and therapy has begun. The doctors say there is a big difference between sober and recovered. We have spent countless hours in family therapy and learning how to change things when she gets out so that nothing can cause one of her triggers to make her want to take again. This has been the hardest thing our family has done but we decided that she was worth every effort.
and in NY there is the Chiari Institute....as well as The Chiari Neurosurgical Center at NSP and a few other Drs.....I will list them below...the list is not a referral nor an endorsement for those listed..it is meant to be used as a starting point to research Drs.
