Avatar n tn Wow -- I can't believe that his doctor would recommend waiting until the thyroid has "died off" to start treating the thyroid issue. Do you have a copy of his latest lab report? It would be great if you could post the tests run, along with their results and the lab's reference ranges, since different labs use different ranges. If you don't have a copy of the lab report, it would be a good idea to get one.
Avatar n tn sometimes Tenex is also used in conjunction with stimulants to help control ADHD symptoms....first I have heard of inderal (brand name for propranolol) being used but makes sense...Always to remember to ask your doctor any questions about your meds and health care...the only stupid questions are the ones not asked....Also beta blockers are also given to help control migraines to regulate fluxs in BP...not because too high but slight changes can trigger migraines...
Avatar f tn Hyperhidrosis Surgery - Known as endoscopic sympathectomy (ETS), is the treatment of choice for severe hyperhidrosis. In this surgery there is interruption of nerve impulses to sweat glands of the palms, face, axillae (armpits) by cutting or electrocautery. ref:http://www.hyperhidrosis-usa.com/hyperhidrosis.html Maybe you could visit a dermatologist/surgeon and dicuss treatment modalities.
1243620 tn?1274790697 Does anyone take propranolol for anxiety and panic attacks? I've had crippling anxiety for my whole life. Antidepressants increase it to the point where I'm in such a state I almost pass out from hypervenitlating. I've heard propranolol is good for this, and is effective.
Avatar f tn I also do take the beta-blocker pindolol which has kept my BP at 125/70 for years. Shrink says very occasional and use of propranolol on top of pindolol should not be a problem but I still have concerns which I will run by my GP. I actually did receive a call from my pharmacy pointing out the risk of a low BP problem. So...I am wondering if anyone has used propranolol or has an educated opinion on both its use in ED and possible interactions.
578589 tn?1217724049 I've had sweaty hands for as long as I could remember. Many times I started to think it was a condition of Hyperhidrosis, but there has also been other reasons explaining why my hands excessively sweat. The other reason why I might have sweaty hands, not Hyperhidrosis, could be due to my personality. Sometimes I get a little nervous when I have to meet new people or just in a unsafe situation. In other words, during a tense situation in my mind.
Avatar m tn Is there anything more I can do to treat my hyperhidrosis more thoroughly? Do you know if botox injections for hyperhidrosis are limited to forheads/hands/feet/armpits? Or could I receive them in other places such as my nose or back? Are there any more comprehensive solutions (ie. surgery) for hyperhidrosis? I'm willing to do almost anythign at this point - it really is paralyzing my life.
Avatar f tn I'm looking for an answer to my dilemma. I have an AV fistula or AVM in femoral artery/vein. Probably congenital. 2 weeks ago I had 3 stents placed, but unfortunately that didn't provide lasting results. I did get 3 days relief from severe pelvic pain (due to vasculature congestion?) and the hyperhidrosis stopped as well. The pain and hyperhidrosis have returned and I'm awaiting another surgery.
Avatar f tn I know propranolol is used for PTSD...but what should I ask for in the pharmacy and what is the dosage? Are there any serious effect if taken without proper knowledge?
Avatar m tn For the longest time ever I sweat profusely. I am a 17 year old male. It's not just my palms that sweat but also my feet (to the point where I can leave pools of water on a tile/wood floor that people mistake for "spilled water". I've been researching and found this type of swearing where you sweat all over your body when your asleep. This explains what I have BUT I'm awake when this happens.
Avatar n tn Hi, Thank you for your question. Usually, propranolol (beta blocker) is suggested for prophylactic treatment of migraine. Acute or prompt treatment require over the counter pain killers and triptans. Avoiding the triggering factors of cluster headache might help you in order to prevent its recurrence. Hope it helps.
Avatar m tn I used to take a slow-release Propranolol 80 mg every day, which caused severe tiredness and extreme fatigue, to the point that I was not able to think straight and sometimes could not even get out of bed. Apparently, Propranolol also inhibits the ability for you to burn fat, not to mention gastrointestinal issues. Depression is also significantly higher when taking Propranolol.
Avatar m tn m taking the referred supplement for maybe around 2 months and despite not curing my axillary hyperhidrosis it helps me feeling calmer overall.
Avatar f tn Sometimes, I will sweat around my armpits when it is cold out. This is not enough to cause dripping sweat, but it is enough to darken the armpit-area of my clothes and feel moist to touch. It started when I was 17, but actually went away for a couple of years and I have noticed it coming back. I would not consider this excessive sweat, just inappropriate sweat. Using certain-dri has helped, but I would like to try and find a way to deal with this without things like that.
Avatar f tn My daughter is 14 years old now, very active and battling a sever underarm odor. For a while I thought she was simply not doing a good job with her personal hygiene and would yell at her if I smelled her underarm odor. We just recently had a long talk about her personal hygiene and she told me that she does the best she can but the odor will not go away completely. She said when she gets out the shower, she can still smell the underarm odor and she also have some bumps under her arms.
Avatar f tn I take propranolol for my blood pressure and keeps my heart steady when a panic attack comes around. For my anxiety, the dr put me on celexa, propranolol, and Ativan. This combo usually works pretty well.
Avatar n tn t worry about it, but when I walk a litter faster for 15-20 min my lower back gets really sweaty, and my shirt wet, but when I do normal things around house or sit I never sweat, unless it's summer and really hot...Do I have Hyperhidrosis?
149184 tn?1235618905 I was watching discovery health channel tonight and the topic was hyperhidrosis & hyohidrosis. i didnt know there's a medical diagnosis for it. i have noticed that i dont sweat a lot like normal people do, but i thought its nothing serious. now im concerned, and scared. can anyone tell me more about the condition? i know its something to do with the hypothalamus but i couldnt find good information online. seem like most people experience hyperhidrosis instead of hypohidrosis.
Avatar m tn Thank for your input, but I do not have hyperhidrosis. I do not excessevly sweat during the day. Just when eating citric acid fruits, like lemons and oranges.
Avatar n tn Its now to the point that i dont have a life,i am in the bed 90% of the time.Recently my sweat tasted really bitter on my lips for about a week.I cant even do the normal things each day with my hygiene.Im 46 years old and i cant live the rest of my life like this,im running out of hope.Is there any clinical trials or any thing that might help me?
Avatar n tn Anyways due to having OCD i kept moving my feet around trying to get the blood circulating and kept this up for like 4 days straight til my ankles hurt and i had swelling. I stopped doing that thing but now the bottoms of my feet are sweaty.. and it isnt a lot, doesnt drip or even wrinkled looking. however it seems to stay slightly wet as long as my feet are down.. if i lay down with them elevated or with the soles up it doesnt do this...
