There really aren't very many specialists in the area of dysautonomia, I'm afraid.
I was told P.O.T.S. could be hereditary and later learned I have a second cousin who has been diagnosed with the same thing. I've not had any official testing to determine the underlying cause of my autonomic dysfunction. I was diagnosed with P.O.T.S. back in 2004.
But this time I am going to ask the GP to try for Gout immediately (VIOXX and/or Allopurinol for Uric Acid/Gout). I notice it seems to reoccur every 5 years.
Advice appreciated?
Symptons are always have been cold, tired, joint and muscle pain worse in fingers, I took Vioxx before it was removed , high blood pressure , tinnitus, completely deaf over 2,500 cycles in both ears. Hearing aids made no difference. Dentist last month couldn't freeze my gums with 2 needles of Carbocaine.
7mm nodule on thyroid. Blood tests TSH 2.15 ( range .465 to 4.68 ) FT4 11.17 ( range 10 to 28.2 ) Total T3 2.02 ( range .92 to 2.
Ohhh well thank you very much.
I had a DVT that went through my heart and into my lungs(PE).
A valve was damaged, also one chanber of my heart.
My problem is that I wasn't diagnosed as a "heart attack", but rather a "pulmonary embolism", and the lawyers representing me in my vioxx lawsuit say it has to be a heart attack, not a PE.
Isn't a heart attack part of a PE? Rather, did I suffer a heart attack as well as a pulmonary embolism?
There was no money exchanged or special consideration given to get Vioxx on the market. However, Vioxx is a good example of a study not digging deep enough into long term effects of a new drug. Vioxx was introduced in 1999 and was originally thought of as a treatment for polyps in the intestinal track.
Of course, as a Gt 3 I must keep in mind what Hector posted on another site, this week about the study of tx follow-up where out of 863 people 85 relapsed and 83 of those did so before Week 12. Two relapsed AFTER Week 12 and they were both Gt3s.
However I am thanking God for the blessing of SVR 12 and am going to be aware of the possibility, but not stress over it. My Dr has already given me the paperwork for Labs end of May for a June appt.
Well, it's official. I received my diagnosis today. I was getting a EMG and while I was in there my neuro busted in and filled me in. I also have arthritis in my spine. Awesomesauce! :-/ I am supposed to start a 3-5 day IV treatment of steroids and I think they gave me homework? I have a butt load of stuff to read about MS and medications and then in a month I go back for another appointment and decide what I want to take. Why do they all of the meds have to be injectable!?
Like Cheerpul, I wonder if your wife was told she had a BI-RADS Category 5 imaging result, rather than a Stage 5 cancer? (If she was told "Stage 5" this is not part of the official TNM staging classification.)
The official stages for breast cancer are Stages 0 through Stage IV, and each stage and subcategory of the stages has clearly defined features.
Another breast cancer Web site had an article that mentioned Stage V in its title, but not in the article itself.
[2] A series of small-scale studies completed in Germany found that H. procumbens was indistinguishable from Vioxx in the treatment of chronic low back pain,[3] and was well-tolerated after more than four years of treatment of H. procumbens alone.[4] H. procumbens also seems efficacious in the treatment of arthritis-caused hip and knee pain.
hi guys I would really appreciated if you guys answer the following questions for me. my first concern is is this site official meaning are you guys actually expert when it comes to std transmission? and my 2nd concern is if two male is engaged in oral sex with one female and male 1 is infected with hiv or other stds and male 2 is not , is it possible to transmit std from the male to the other male from this exposure?
Make sure you use lube and go slow! Listen to your body and go at the pace it is comfortable for you. It is even safer if you use a condom. It is safe.
