Close Endometriosis
I was diagnosed with Endo last May. They removed it but nothing has changed, I was still in daily pain but they said they had done all they could and maybe my problems were psycoschomatic. I know my body and knew they were wrong. I have now been put on zoladex for 6 months. I have my 3rd injection in a week and am considering not having it. I feel worse than ever and can see no end in sight.
Treatments
- Laser Surgery Not Working
- I had about 2 days of pain free. but that was only because I had been doped up with morphine and also the local anaesthetic
- Surgery Not Working
- Zoladex Too Soon to Tell
- I have my 3rd injection in a week but the side effects are horrendous. I cry every day, can't sleep, hot flashes, night sweats, daily headaches, stupidly anxious and acne. The only good thing is no bleeding but I am yet to see if it has an effect.
Close Celiac Disease
I was diagnosed in 2002 with coeliacs disease via an endoscopy.
Treatments
- Gluten Free Diet Somewhat Helpful
- I've always had a hate/hate relationship with food and after bein overweight most of my life, after living on a gluten free diet, I lost over 4 stone. Unfortunately it affected me so much to the point where I took it to the extreme and I now suffer with anorexia. All my own doing I know.
Open Eating Disorders
Type: AnorexiaI was diagnosed with coeliacs disease in 2002 and after following a gluten free diet I lost 4 stone. I've always had a rough relationship with food and because I saw how much weight I could lose eating gluten free, it got way out of control to the point where I now suffer with anorexia. Having coeliacs makes it a lot easier for me to defend myself when I know what I'm doing is wrong, I just can't help it.
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Too Soon to Tell
- I'm only on my 3rd appt which is in a week. I have been given a food diary to fill in but I've realised that this just makes things worse for me as even though I'm eating very little at the mo, I haven't eaten for 3 days now all so I don't have to write it down. I have been honest with my counsellor about this though. I've suffered with anorexia since 2003 but only now I've seeked help.
Open Insomnia
I suffer with insomnia which goes back as long as I can remember, even before I was 10 years old. I don't think it's something that will ever change.
Treatments
- Ambien Not Working
- Felt like hell
- Ativan Not Working
- nothing.
- Counting Sheep Somewhat Helpful
- In rare cases when I feel exhausted, I don't count sheep but things like names beginning with the alphabet etc
- Dalmane Not Working
- Felt like hell.
- Halcion Not Working
- Felt like hell.
- Lavender Somewhat Helpful
- My pillow spray and my neck and wrist balm relaxes me but no sleep.
- Music Somewhat Helpful
- Sometimes the radio keeps me company but I've listened to 4 albums in a row and I'm still awake!
- Reading Somewhat Helpful
- It passes the long nights but doesn't send me to sleep.
- Restoril Somewhat Helpful
- Very ocassionally it will send me off to sleep but I wake after two hrs exactly. Everytime!
- Remeron Working / Worked
- The one tablet that worked. But the side effects were so horrendous Id rather not sleep. And for me to say that they were hell.
