  Hello, I have a question. Is this anything to worry about?Low lying cerebellar tonsils (9 mm below the foramen magnum) but with apreserved rounded configuration most likely related to anatomic variancerather than suggestive Chiari I malformation.That is what the radiologist put on my mri results. My PCP says it's something I was born with but nothing to worry about. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, neuropathy, myofascial pain syndrome, sciatica, yeast overgrowth syndrome, ADD, and...

  I had my MRI today of my thoracic spine and brain. I got an email that new test results were posted so l logged on to my healthcare provider's website to see what they were. I haven't talked to my doctor yet but am trying to figure it out.What does xsx probably from fibromyalgia mean? It also say can consult with rheumatologist if I want a second opinion. That was on my thoracic spine. All the research on fibro says it doesn't do any damage to the body. I have had numbness and tingling in my...

  Hello,(sorry for the length of this post)I am still on medical leave, since the end of July. Last week, my pcp told me he is extending it by 6 months. The pain and other issues are actually getting worse. I have been on Lyria since April. It worked great, for 3 months. Then all the pain, numbness, and tingling came back, and it's much worse than the last flare up. It seems like the time between flares is getting shorter and the pain gets worse with each one. The doctor added topiramate and...

  Hello,It's a bad pain day, but what else is new. I am annoyed with my husband and adult kids. They seem to think I can just go, go, go. That increases pain, is tiring, and very irritating. I am on medical leave from work for a reason. The knees and feet are really hurting. Walking a lot on concrete doesn't do any good for plantar fasciitis or runner's knees. I am going to sleep. Maybe they will leave me alone about going anywere then. I hope.Hope you all have a better day than me,Lisa

  I just called to see if there was any cancellations. There wasn't, but there was an opening for September 6 at another location closer to my house. Thank goodness. I am so glad I don't have to wait until October 10.

  I am trying to thing it's a good morning, trying to be positive, but I feel like I got hit by a mac truck. The pain....numbness, tingling. Ugh. My feet. The feeling there changes by the second. It's either extreme pain from the plantar faciitis or the numbess and tingling from the neuropathy. At least I don't have a headache today. I still take a bunch of supplements as recommended by my pain management doctor. After a lot of research and a long talk with my pharmacist about my current...

  Good morning,I am having a hard time getting moving this morning. I want to sleep. It seems as though the concerta isn't working. Maybe I am taking my night meds too late (Lyrica and Topiramate)?? I really need to clean my house but am going to figure out how to do it without taking a muscle relaxer for pain just to stay awake. I want my house clean for when my dad comes to visit. He has been living in Alaska for many years and finally moved back to the continental 48. I talk to him every day...
