Hello,
Short term memory loss after brain surgery is more common than you might think.
Let me break this into a two part answer, first the basic info about standard approaches, and second, what I have seen happen over the years working with patients that had brain trauma from different sources;
First, Rehabilitation after brain tumor surgery that results in memory loss typically involves psychotherapy and cognitive therapy.
She is taking hydralazine 50mg for high BP, Sertraline 25mg for depression, Nitrofur Mac 50mg for UTI, Donepezil 10mg for memory loss, and Novolin for high blood sugar. We also have a PT that comes to her house but that is not really helping.
Here goes...
I have been seeing several doctors (all cross referred) and all are perplexed (thier words). Meanwhile I am confused, frustrated and suffering.
I am a married 53yo tall otherwise avg male. Until 18mo ago I was in good health, very active, and a college professor. I do not drink or do drugs. I am now unable to work or do most of the activities I once enjoyed. My mother died of cancer and my father died ostensibly from alcohol induced cerebral ataxia.
In my and others experience, the best withdrawal method is a process of cutting back your dosage over time. Going into a rehab unit is pure hell. And anyway you are not an addict. Take it slow friend. In my humble opinion the vicodin you may want to stay on the longest. Percs make me feel depressed. Vicodin does not do that. I am a pain patient. This may sound counter intuitive but oxycontin acts longer with getting a less addictive buzz or high like one does on vikes(hydrocodone).
I have been taking vicodin and tramadol for over 15 years and really want to stop taking them because they are ruining my life. But the pain from withdrawal is unbearable. I am at my wits end n don't know how to ease the withdrawal symptoms. Any ideas?
will i experience withdrawal symptoms? i know that no one can say for sure, but there must be someone out there who can speak to this situation that i am in. i am frightened, or more appropriately, i have a sense of dread about having to go through withdrawal on top of all of the other health problems that i have right now. in may of last year i was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and in feb of this year i was diagnosed with crohn's.
I am trying to ween off I am down to 1/2 in morning 1/2 at night. I am feeling withdrawal symptoms already is it going to get worse once I stop? I am taking a lot of vitamin and trying the thomas recipe but I feel terrible and I have to work.
I think the typical withdrawal is 4-5 days of the intense phsyical symptoms. I do not know about methadone. Try wrapping your legs in ace bandage for the rls. It helped me.
Can anyone tell me how long the withdrawal symptoms last when coming off Oxycontin? I've been taking 300mg a day for the last four years because of spinal disease. I've now decided I'd rather suffer the pain than deal with this drug anymore. I no longer have any interest in anything and spend most of my days watching TV. After doing my research, I've decided it's the drug from hell and I really need to stop.
I hope someone can help me. I have been doing the Ashton Manual withdrawal method to come off of Klonopin. I am done with the Klonopin but now have to wean off the Valium. Everyday is pure agony. When will this end? I have been off of Klonopin for 2 months now and have been doing the withdrawal for 8 months and it is NOT getting better, only worse. I am now on 10 mg of Valium in the morning and 4 mg at night cutting 1 mg a week. I cannot see this getting any better.
Could be withdrawal, but also during the night our blood sugar changes as we sleep so maybe get it checked. Good luck!
If you are having blurred vision and confusion I would encourage you to seek medical care asap - I highly doubt that is still from vicodin withdrawal and you may have other issues going on.
Usually the worst of the withdrawals is the first 5 days then you would just feel weak for a couple weeks. What you are experiencing is not normal.
Call your doctor or go to ER.
I have been trough this before but I dont know what I can do to make the withdrawal symptoms not so bad. What kind of vitamins, if any, can I take or does anyone have any suggetions on making it a little easier?
