3072999 tn?1356414732 Hi Tink, I am actually a medical coder for a hospital -the ICD-10 code would be G93.5. The ICD-9 code is 384.4. Since ICD-9 is not very specific they may have put a I after to show it is a Chiari Malformation type 1. In ICD-10 it is more specific - G93.5 states Chiari Malformation 1. So I am assuming since the ICD-9 code of 384.4 just states compression of brain they had to add a 1 so it was more specific for their notes.
Avatar f tn 8 weeks today! I think its a sticker. I suffer from generalized anxiety and stress over the smallest things!
Avatar n tn I am also a clinical depressive, had my first episode at age 9. I take Klonopin, 3 times a day .5 mg for the anxiety and Celexa 60 mg, for the depression. My GAD got real bad about 7 months ago after I underwent colon surgery but prior to that, in the mid 90;s, I was having panic attacks and have suffered from anxiety just didn't have a name for it. This is a wonderful place to post and I am glad that you are going to see a "shrink". I love mine.
Avatar f tn ll stick my neck out - I think he does have an anxiety disorder. Many children develop GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) about eight years of age. You might wish to google phrases a "GAD and children" or "anxiety disorders in children" or "behaviors of anxiety in children" or similar words/phrases to better educate yourself on this issue. There are also tons of books on this topic in bookstores, the internet and in public libraries.
Avatar f tn I have a question. I was diagnosed years ago with Generalized Anxiety Disorder with Anxiety Attacks and Agoraphobia. I had a discussion tonight with a friend who keeps saying I do it to myself. I have had this along with a diagnosis of ADD as well as Bipolar 2 and then Clinical Depression. I was wondering if Anxiety is really something that can be controlled by the mind or if it really does need to be treated with medication?
1132574 tn?1271672466 Hi Everyone, I am new to the anxiety forum. Had a a few weeks of anxiety hit me in January when I was having medical testing done. I am 36 and have high blood pressure every time I see a doctor as I just get so nervous when I go to the doctor. They ran tests which freaked me out even more and wham, I was then anxiouss all the time. The tests eventually all came back normal. With that reassurance my anxiety vanished.& I was even able ot take my BP at home with no anxiety.
Avatar m tn I have a generalized anxiety disorder and a phobia of HIV and rabies. I went to get my blood work down and the nurse used a vacutainer to draw blood. However, the vacutainer holder was reused ( the nurse confirmed it is only the needle which is changed and not the holder as it does not come into contact with the patient) and now I think I will get HIV and I keep thinking about HIV until I get tested again at 3 months after the window period. luckily I have medicines however I hate this.
Avatar f tn F45.0 ICD-9: 300.
444864 tn?1205155893 I am having alot of anxiety about passing out and hurting myself again. I realize the ICD is a life saving device and am so thankful to have one. Without it...I would not be here. Do you know of any websites that have information on ICD's?? I have checked out the Medtronic website and found it to be impersonal, and not all the helpful. I have sent the company an e-mail about setting up a forum for those with ICD's.
Avatar f tn Recap I Performed protected oral on another man and mutual masturbation on 4/9/17 Girlfriend got cough and green mucus from nose on 5/20 I received a massage with happy ending on 5/28 I have generalized anxiety disorder and this has really taken a toll on me worrying.
Avatar m tn I would like to know if anyone has had an ICD implanted and what is the pros and cons of having it done?
Avatar f tn Yes, yes, and yes!! This is called GAD, generalized anxiety lingering in the background between attacks, very common!
709686 tn?1277432159 I have been on 10mg of Lexapro daily for more or less the last few years. It has worked wonders for my Generalized Anxiety. I am much more balanced mentally, I wished I would of gotten help long ago. Having said that, I have tried to quit a couple times. It's a very difficult process, it takes several weeks of gradual withdraw and even then I suffered through the weird shocks and vertigo. The shocks felt like a pinch somewhere on my body and WHAM an electric shock!!
Avatar f tn I have an icd and it has shocked me several times, i now have ptsd due to it, real bad anxiety.The doctor prescribed lexapro. I wanted to know if anyone out there ever had the same problem caused by icd shocks and if they also take lexapro?
391834 tn?1229342874 ve just started taking meds for my thyroid so hopefully my symptoms (fatigue and generalized felling of anxiety/nervousness) will be no more!
Avatar f tn In 2009 they developed another International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD 10-CM), which will be implemented in 2013. Fibromyalgia will be classified as a disease of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue. This is puzzling and more confusing (IMHO). Everything we have been consistently told is FMS either does not exist or is a by-product of mental illness. We have been told it is not a disease.
Avatar n tn Try not to let your anxiety about your ICD run your life. The shock does suck but it only last a split second and is more scary than anything else. If you want I can send you a link for a very good ICD support group, Helps to talk with others with your same problems.
Avatar n tn t meet the official criteria for an ICD but was still having problems - my doctor suggested an ICD which I had implanted. The ICD really helped the anxiety and my symptoms have improved signifigantly and the NSVT has stopped or at least it has never been serious enough for my ICD to pace me and I have never had it go off. Now 5 years later, my device lead has fractured so I have to have the entire thing removed and I am considering not having it put back in.
1390847 tn?1344657468 I was just curious about generalized anxiety vs. anxiety over a specific thing. For me, I dont have generalized anxiety, I have a specific anxiety of throwing up (emetophobia). I wonder which is more "popular"...generalized or specialized?
Avatar f tn You may get some realted experience from the Anxiety Community, if you try you may improve results focusing on dealing with anxiety, while relating to the ICD. Most there may have no idea what an ICD is. As for Ablation, I'd say go for it if you can get a EP Cardiologist to tell you what the risk/benefit estimate is. In my case of long term AFib and other facts I'll not load this reply with my Cardiologist and a consulting EP both said my reward is too low to take the risk..
Avatar m tn Benzodiazepines have robust efficacy in the short-term management of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), but were not shown to be effective in producing long-term improvement overall. Although benzodiazepines are much safer in overdose than their predecessors, the barbiturates, they can still cause problems in overdose.
