    • Close Multiple Myeloma
      Stage: III

      my mom was diagnosed w/ mm in july of 2006. we could never get any dr.s to tell us which stage mom was in. I guess it was the worst because we lost her 1-10-2007 at least God gave me those last few months to love and care for her. I just wish i could keep from crying. it's just hurts so freaking bad. I know she is in abetter place, but i miss her.

      Treatments

      Dexamethasone Working / Worked
      the chemo worked, her blood and urine tests kept getting better, but her immune system was so bad it was like taking 2 steps forward and 3 sideways.
      Revlimid Not Working
      Velcade Not Working
    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Parent

      I just lost my mom to multiple myeloma on jan. 10,2007. I still miss her and I cannot keep from crying. My husband has been such a tremendoud help thru this , but now it seem he feels like I am suppost to be over this and iam not! mom was only diagnosed in july of '06 and lasted 6 months, which most were spent in the hospital. i really thought we would have her around at least several more years. that is what's so shocking. I know she's in heaven, but i wish so much i could have a sign.

      Treatments

      Crying Too Soon to Tell
      i have only had a few days that i did not cry. otherwise i cannot quit!!!
      Grief Counseling Considering
      i think i need it.
      Prayer Somewhat Helpful
      I pray, and my chuch family has kept me in their prayers, as well as my other friends. i know prayer works.
      Psychotherapy Considering
      Sleep Working / Worked
      when i sleep, i usually dont think of her-except the 2 concecutive dreams i had where mom was having a baby?! on the 2nd dream, i saw the baby--perfect, but stillborn.
    • Open TMJ

      I HAVE HAD TMJ FOR SO LONG I CAN'T REMEMBER WHEN IT ALL STARTED--LIKE 15-20 YRS AGO. I EVEN HAD A DOUBLE CONDOLOTOMY (BROKE MY JAW ON BOTH SIDES TO LET THEM EASE BACK INTO PLACE W/O MESSING W/ THE JOINT). THAT DID NOT HELP THE PAIN. I NEED HELP W/ THIS THING, TOO!!!!

      Treatments

      Mouthguard Not Working

    • Open Fibromyalgia

      DIAGNOSED IN 1991, STILL CANT FIND OUT WHAT TO DO FOR IT.

    • Open Depression

      i have been depressed most of my 47 yrs. of life. some days are better than others. my concern is that my mom and sister have been diagnoised w/ manic depression---does that mean i have that kind??? I have been on zoloft for awhile and it seems to do ok. i even double up the 10 days before my period, so i'm not too much of a high riding bitch.

      Treatments

      Zoloft Somewhat Helpful
      it seems to help ok, and i up the dose 10 days before my period---so i don;t turn into lizzie borden.

      hated it---made me fat, too.

      i just remember it didn't help.

      this worked ok for me
      Psychotherapy Considering
    • Open Migraine Headaches

      i started getting the headaches my last trimester of pregnancy in 1989. i think my hormones are the main cause of these.

    • Open Infidelity

      this is about my parents. my mom just died 1-10-07, and 1 week after the funeral, my dad told my sister that he had been seeing someone. he kept saying how much he misses mom and there will never ever be another like her and he wishes she were still here. but now, he and his 'friend' plan to marry. this was to happen in may, but is now moved up to april, just a few days from my mother's birthday. this is a 2nd marriage for my dad, i'm not sure about the friend.
