Avatar n tn I was taking Linzess and it didn't work and they offer a refund as long as you have your receipt and tell them why, etc.? Do you know if the manufacturer who makes Lubiprostone offers a refund if it doesn't work?
Avatar f tn I have heard that when pain reaches a certain degree,the chemistry of the brain is altered not only in how pain is processed but our moods,thought process,ability to do the very basic of functions.I believe that unless the total person is treated physicians overlook the relevance of treatment for a person living with chronic pain.Does anyone else consider this to make a difference when a doctor decides on a treatment plan?
Avatar m tn Alosetron has been approved for women with IBS and severe diarrhea and that too under strict vigilance and research program. Similarly Lubiprostone may be prescribed to men and women with IBS and constipation, again under strict vigilance. Please consult your doctor regarding this. Take care! I sincerely hope you will find this information useful in your journey towards better health. Hope you get well soon! Good Luck and take care!
Avatar f tn Have I altered my brain chemistry to a point where it would be impossible for me to ever get off of opiates at all? I tend to think this must be the case. After 40+ years of opiate addiction, how could my brain ever get back to normal? I guess I can live with being on suboxone long term, but what happens if I ever need surgery or get a disease which is painful. Will I ever be able to get pain relief?
366811 tn?1217422672 Many folks attribute their anxiety, panic or other related problems to a "chemical imbalance." In one sense, this MUST be true because there is a lot of chemistry in our feelings; in fact, we could argue that it is "all about" the chemistry. Put another way, if our chemistry were different, we'd feel better. That's all true enough -but also a POTENTIALLY dangerous way to think about it.
Avatar m tn The treatment definitely can alter brain chemistry and Hep C symptoms can make a contribution too. Rather than immediately starting on antipsychotics, it be good if you could talk your options over with someone who can discern what is really going on. ToX can throw the whole ecosystem off balance. Prolonged sleep disturbance alone can have a person bouncing off white walls.
Avatar f tn It all fell out and when it grew back, it was curly. His doctor told him that something about his body chemistry had changed. Maybe something about your body chemistry has just changed naturally.
Avatar m tn your brain chemistry needs to begin to reproduce again. exercise helps with getting the brain chemistry regulated. congratulations on your clean time. you are doing great.
Avatar m tn During my time at university I found chemistry labs a haven because initially hardly anyone reacted. It’s funny because the whole lab is surrounded by glass because the whole building is glass all around with several floors. It’s sealed with no windows, just a giant air conditioning system (AC). I got a few reactions which I didn’t expect and I didn’t know why either.
192291 tn?1345400135 Hi, if you're taking chem lab you should speak to the instructor and ask them if you'll be exposed to anything potentially harmful to the baby, either through exposure to skin or through your lungs (and ask your ob/gyn). It depends on the level of the course too. If the room itself is used for multiple chem labs of varying levels, then you might want to skip the course b/c you don't know what residue is hidden where.
Avatar f tn I just recently requested his records from that visit and discovered an abnormal ECG - Inferior infarct - age undetermined, and his blood chemistry for Troponin I was 0.04 (range indicates Inconclusive for Myocardial damage). While in the ER, no one discussed the results of the ECG with neither my son or a family member, nor did they discuss the blood chemistry results. We are in the process of getting a referral to a cardiologist to follow up on this ECG.
Avatar m tn Although technically it takes only one sperm to fertilize an egg, sperm need to be surrounded by a lot of ejaculate from the man to neutralize vaginal chemistry and give the sperm a medium to swim around in safely. A few lonely little sperm with no ejaculate will die pretty quickly.
Avatar n tn Has anyone checked your magnesium and potassium levels along with a thorough chemistry panel (not usually done by a Neurologist but usually a PCP)? Do you have any back pain? Have you ever had any trauma to your legs or back or feet? What other medical conditions do you have and what other medications do you take? Are you seeing any other specialists for this?
Avatar m tn Unfortunately, the unique chemistry of each individual and their response to a med that is designed to balance chemistry can make medical treatment a bit of a crap shoot. He may need more medication or if he is at the max amount and the desired response is not achieved, another med might be indicated. Hang in there. I feel our pain. I have (2) 7 year olds, one with ADD and the other with ADHD, ODD , OCD, and anxiety.... I am running the gauntlet.
Avatar n tn She also indicates that she cant remember things -- for instance she insisted on staying home from school yesterday - One of her friends came over after school and said that our dau had missed a chemistry exam. I asked her about it - and she notes that she did NOT know that she had an exam. She thinks that we are just intruding on privacy. I seriously doubt any drug whatsoever. I am confused - is this emotional (hormones), is this depression - is this teenage angst?
Avatar n tn We need to realize that all of our thoughts and feelings are ultimately the result of brain chemistry. Imbalances in brain chemistry can cause enormous pain. Thankfully, science has given us medications that can improve the lives of people who suffer. I do appreciate that you cared enough to respond to my post. I have my answer to the question I posted and am moving forward accordingly.
1116728 tn?1276797124 Tell your doctor tomorrow about how your moods are swinging from depression to normal and then happy and then....talk to him about those side effects, and your obsessions. Tell him also about the "noises" you hear and your fears. It is all important for him to know. Write it down on paper so you can look at it tomorrow and not forget something you wanted to tell him. You aren't crazy. You are a survivor of abuse which can make a lot of things threatening to you.
