- Hi All,I hope you're well.Okay, so I finally got my prescription for Somavert filled. I still need to get instructions from my doc and get a recent IGF-1 level taken before I start it.In the meantime, I'm ***freaking*** out. I'm very concerned...
- Hi All,Can anyone tell me how they got their insurance to cover Somavert injections?I know this is going to vary from state to state, but it would be great if you could tell me the name of the insurance company(s) that cover Somavert injections. If...
- Hi All,My doc just prescribed me Somavert. I am torn about whether or not I should actually start using it. My IGF-1 levels have never been insanely high (last test was 470; the high end of the ref. range for my age was 368). I do have side...
- Hi Everyone,I just got my latest OGTT results. I haven't talked to my doctor yet, but am wondering what you pros think about them. I can't decipher anything in them:0 min GH .99 Glucose 8630 min (after drink) GH ,64 ...
- Hi All,I recently posted, "Bone vs. Soft Tissue Growth." My issue was that I do not have soft tissue swelling, but I do have bony growths all over the place. There are two in particular that are really bothering me. I am trying to figure out if...
- Hi All,I posted recently under, "Possible Second Surgery." I would love to hear your thoughts on that post.Anyway, here is something that confuses me about my case: I haven't really had much soft-tissue growth, like of the lips, nose, fingers,...
- Hi All,It's been a while since I've been around here. It's been a while since I've been dealing with my health.I was DXed with acromegaly and Cushing's in Dec. 08. I had surgery in Jan. 09. Surgery failed to cure me of both conditions.Doc's...
- Hi Everyone,Does anyone else have a problem like this? I do...http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cpsidt=1400764Hugs,K
- Hi Everyone,I have not been around a lot. I have been floating around the web - still trying to find ways to help myself; still recovering from surgery and trying to find some stability; and, trying to keep my head above water at work and home. I...
- Hi Everyone,I am currently on 100 mcg. of Levoxyl. My doctor switched me to Armour, but only prescribed 30 mg. once per day. To me that sounds way low. After doing some research online, I think I should be on at least one grain to start. What do...
- Is this agonizing for anyone else?The dry, itchy skin and hair, hair loss, fatigue, even seeing the non-make-uped face in the mirror...I look and feel as though I have aged 10 years in the past one.Just looking for some empathy...
- Hi Everyone,I am new in this group, but have been on DS for my other related conditions. I have not had a period for well-over three years. Recently, I was diagnosed with acromegaly and Cushing's disease and had three tumors removed from my...
- Hi Everyone,My surgery went so well - no complications! And, the doc told me he thinks they got all of the tumors - I had three!!! This makes sense, since I was diagnosed with both Cushing's disease and acromegaly.Aside from feeling like a have a...
- Happy New Year, everyone!I wish I had more time to spend on here. I follow all of your stories as much as possible, but am pulled in so many directions right now. I am scheduled for surgery one week from today - wish me luck! My tumor is small,...
