I have muscle spazms along with the in my arms and legs. Chest pain occasionally. Ive had acid reflux and IBS since i was 16. Taking nexium, and whatever else they can prescribe to help, but mine is cronic so theres not much they can do. I have only had one seizure so far.. But im wondering what i can tell myself with all these symtoms im having. Iv heard people talk about Raynauds syndrom? But i dont seam to have cold feet or hands alot of the time, occasionally. And no discoloration.
My opth has diagnosed me with blepharitis, I use sterilid w/ compresses and take flaxseed oil, and I also use preservative free eyedrops for moisture. However nothing has worked to my satisfaction besides tobradex which I've used for about a year and half- my eyelid inflammation is pretty severe even with the other treatments, however w/ tobradex my symptoms are almost nonexistent.
i wouldnt lower the tacrolimus dose further
(interestingly though, a few days before at the vet, the schirmer test was 12 in both eyes). Now 6 weeks later, the right eye has a 6 and the left eye still has 0. The specialist reviewed all of the options with us - cyclosporine, pilocarpine or tacrolimus with sirolimus. She said that very rarely has she seen any dog respond to cyclosporine after not responding to tacrolimus.
I got blood work done and an MRI of my brain and neck about a month ago and the MRI came back showing i have a bulge in my neck ( a disc issue) Could a simple herniated disc be causing all these problems? Its really starting to freak me out. I'd rather be dead then have a debilitating disease like MS....My neurologist didn't find anything beyond disc issue. I also have had anxiety and i'm wondering if this could be part of the cause?
The treatments of this condition are application of topical corticosteroids (betamethasone, clobatesol, flucinolone) which will reduce the inflammatory process. Topical immunomodulators like pimecrolimus and tacrolimus can be used in severe conditions.
I hope it helps. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor.
I lost my insurance after 13 years post-transplant.
AS I HAVE SUFFERED BREATHLESSNESS AND WALKING PROBLEMS,I HAVE BEEN TAKEN OFF TACROLIMUS AND PUT ON NEORAL-YET THERE IS NO IMPROVEMENT IN MY CONDITION.IS THERE ANY OTHER ANTI REJECTION DRUG THAT YOU WOULD RECOMMEND (I HAVE HAD A LIVER TRANSPLANT RECENTLY)? IN YOUR EXPERIENCE,CAN MY SITUATION BE IMPROVED?THANKS.
i would be extremely cautious about using it until more data is available especially since its purported effects on tacrolimus and cyclosporine metabolism are extreme. i am quite confident that there will be clinical trials coming down the road extremely soon.
Antihistaminics, topical steroids, PUVA therapy, retinoic acid and tacrolimus are the available treatment options for lichen planus.It is best to clarify your doubts by your dermatologist. I hope it helps.
Take care and regards!
My tacrolimus level is 4.2 after 4 months of liver transplant, Is it dangerous? what should i do?
i have been having seizures since 2008 , i was pregnant and began sick with fever and found out i had a spleen tumor which ended in a partial spleenectomy, after that i began having seizures. Every seizure is worst for me itake dilantin for the seizures, I has a seizure about 3months ago and i havent been the same since i have extreme back left shoulder pain tender almost, my left side of my stomach aches a dull pain like when i had the tumor on my spleen.
I am taking Tacrolimus 3mg and Myfortic 360mg twice a day, FK level is around 5. Am I going to take these two immunosuppressants (probably same dosages) for life or might be reducing the dosage ?
