      From tendonshurt Tuesday

      I can't tell you how many sleepless nights I've had nothing tearing but it sure feels like it is. I see PM doctor I recommend contacting a pain management doctor. Primary doc is fine but they don't specialize in chronic pain.

    • I’m With You

      From tendonshurt Monday

      I definitely understand the shoulder pain it feels like the rotator cuff has ripped in half moving my arm period made me scream with pain. After a cortisone shot it has let up alot. But most of the time every tendon feels that way for me hips, butt, elbows, wrist, knees and ankles. All the steriod injections haven't helped at all. I sure hope it goes away because I know how totally excruiating pain. May God be with you always. Stay in touch pls.

      From foxysdad November 14

      He has nothing to worry about the anesthetic. He'll get a "calming" pill before he goes in. Then a mild dose of anesthetic that will put him out for about 5 minutes. This is so they can deaden the eye. It's mild, but he won't be able to drive a car for the rest of the day because of the residual effects. He'll be technically under the influence and probably sleepy. He'll be awake during the surgery. Tell him to enjoy the light show. It's just a foretaste of the beautiful colors he'll be seeing when he walks out the door of the clinic.

      From SteveRS November 6

      Dear Scottish,

      You are right but my family having me be me is really not ok as I am miserable. I know ending it all would be so selfish but living like this is really no quality of life for me, or others around me. I can try and rationalize it all I want and in the end, I can’t but it really does not matter; rational or irrational, the pain would be gone. Thank you for your thoughts.

      Steve

    • Close Arrhythmias
      Type: Tachycardia

      I have suffered pvc's, trigemini, bigemin, sinus tachycardia and had an echo suggestive of cardiomyopathy in the early '80's.....I just started suffering with severe palpitations and am afraid for the future and need to share my feelings and fears with others here!

      Treatments

      Corgard Not Working
      made me extremely dizzy...
      Atenolol Somewhat Helpful
      It helps some but not for long enough. The palps start in the evening when my day is over.
    • Close Hypothyroidism

      I'm befuddled with this Hashimoto's disease and hope to find some innovative information concerning this disease...the endo I have now is definitely a loser as far as I am concerned.

      Treatments

      Synthroid Working / Worked
      Of course it isn't working, what CAN with a thyroid that swings from hypo to hyper for no rhyme or reason?
    • Open Congenital Heart Disease
      Type: Cardiomyopathy

      Finally a diagnosis at age 64 for a lifetime of severe physical limitations due to my heart. I have diastolic hypertrophy, also called left ventricular hypertrophy.
