Guest guest Posted May 28, 2001 Report Share Posted May 28, 2001 Pat.... This is exactly what I went through prior to diagnosis of restless leg syndrome. My heart goes out to you, it's a horrible thing to experience. I had to keep getting up and walking through the house. As it got worse and after 3 weeks of basically no sleep, I finally went to the doctor. I couldn't even sit in my chair and read....had to keep those legs moving and my ankels in motion (almost twitching). I don't know if treatment brings it on or not, but I do know that it also can be hereditary. My dad had it and my mom asked me why I found her sleeping on the couch so often when I lived at home. I had thought they were fighting but in actuality, she couldn't sleep with my dad's legs constantly fidgeting and his getting up and down. My doctor put me on Klonpin for night time and it hasn't bothered me since. Well, if I forget to take my Klonopin, it still bothers me. My chinese guy says it has to do with me being a warm damp person which causes restlessness. But in this case I'm going with traditional medicine....it's worked and as long as I don't forget to take my Klonopin before going to bed I'm just fine. There are tons of sites out there on this...I spent a lot of time researching it so You'll find lots of info. It's a very common affliction. Good luck. I know exactly what you are going through.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2001 Report Share Posted May 28, 2001 Hi All, It has been awhile science I have wrote. I have just had so much energy lately. I have been of treatment almost 5 months. I feel so much better, I still get the brain fog but not as much. My bones hurt allot more than they did before treatment and when I get tired I have got to just lay down I can not longer force myself to just go on. I have slowed down allot. I no longer work I was a manicurist for 17 years the fumes are no good for me. Of course being on treatment has just about wiped us out. At least my ins. paid for most of the med. But no job and all the other stuff that went along with treatment cost a bundle. I have just had to change my way of living. Thank God for pic n save and the 99 cent stores. I applied for SSI last Aug. been turned down once I know have a lawyer, so we will see. But it has bee worth it I am know nondetecable and have been for almost 5 months. I think I just about had all the sides affects you could have. Thank god for a good doctor and great liver doctor. So for any of you just starting treatment hang in their. This is a great sight they really know whats going on and a very caring bunch. I am know starting to see a Homeopathic doctor I found a real good guy he knows allot about Hep-C. But I will continue to see the doctor they will work together. So today I feel like I am one luckie 51 year old lady In Chino Calif.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 It will take a lot of time. Don't let that crap that Schering-Plough hands out make you believe that you'll be back where you were in 6 months. Not true. Keep drinking lots of water. Have you had any blood work done? You might be anemic, like I was. Also, add some protein to your diet. I know we're not supposed to do much of that, but do it anyway. Take at least 1000mg. of vitamin C per day........more if you are a smoker.......add 500. Also have your thyroid checked. Whether you lost or gained weight on treatment, it's will have had some effect on that organ as well. If you had arthritis before, start hydro therapy immediately. This also helps with the fybromyalgia, or whatever this cramping is. Add some potasium to your diet if the cramping persists. You will get to the point that your good days will out-number your bad, but try to stay away from anyone who even has a cold. Your immune system has been shell-shocked and it will take awhile for it to rebuild, particularly if your under a lot of stress. After I got viral pneumonia last winter from one of my grandchildren, I put my foot down. If anybody is sneezing or sniffling, don't even come in the door. Enough already. Hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 yup,went last week to get bone density test and I have osteopprosis, haven't received the actual report yet from the doctor, but it is pretty severe in the spine and a little less so in hips.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Hi Suzy, One of the most important things to help is exercise. I know, yuk! Weight bearing exercise is what you need. And, especially if it is already bad, starting an exercise program with the aid of a good physical therapist is probably what you need. (I wnet to physical therapy for 5 months but have learned more exercises to stengthen my neck muscles in only 2 weeks from my chiropractor!) You don't want to break anything while building muscle and bone. It's important that the exercises are done right. There are prescription meds to help too, but the exercise is really needed no matter what. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2001 Report Share Posted August 8, 2001 thanks Claudine I have resumed my walking and trying to do some exercises along with it, I swim a lot but not weight bearing so will have to start that up in full force again. This is terrible since I am relatively young, I think 48, don't know if it was due to the combo or not but doesn't really matter at this point. I f you know of any good exercises for the neck let me know mine hurts too, hope this finds you well, sounds like you are hanging in there. About another month and I will be getting another blood test for my pcr, have once again neglected this list as our computer is upstairs and there is no air conditioner and it has been in the high 90's for most of the last month at least. I think I lost a lot when they changed over to the new format, so will have to try and stay on top of things.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2001 Report Share Posted August 10, 2001 on the excercise thing... and then on top of that the fatigue from the hep, and the random " limit " it sets on ya. One day's work is ok, next day maybe is half that. I never seem to know how much energy I'll have any given day, kinda like a random energy generator lol. I hope your therapist takes that into account too. I'm hoping to sneak out of work early one day next week and go to the doc to see if anything can be helped on the energy/pain/thang. I've done the chiropractor thing years ago and all it did was hurt so not doing that again! My 99 refills for one year of Diflucan ran out and I didn't realize it. I desparately call the pharmacy and ick the bad news! Course, I waited till it was full on me, all the itching and stuff all over my body. It comes on sudden like that sometimes, especially in area I sweat a lot. Was free of it for the first 2 months immediately after treatment, hoped it was gone. NOT! Anyone have that? As if I'm reacting to my own sweat or something. That's not so bad but then the nurse from the doctor's office called asking me why I want more.. yadda yadda and I realized that record keeping for historical problems are not kept very well. That poor nurse was having a hard time researching this yeast thing that started about 5 years ago and comes and goes, was really bad on tx, now just when I sweat or once a month thing. I figured it was just a menopause type thing, cuz of the timing, and doc seems to think so too. I've been thru several creams, some antibiotic-al types, etc etc. Too bad the doc can't put this stuff in a database and have like we do in quality control a column for " cause " and " effect " and " corrective action " and " is it fixed? " etc etc. (Maybe I should write the damn program! hahaha.. ok ok yes I'm anal that way.) Good luck and let us know how you progress. alley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not so bad but then the nurse from the doctor's office called asking me why I want more.. yadda yadda and I realized that record keeping for historical problems are not kept very well. That poor nurse was having a hard time researching this yeast thing that started about 5 years ago and comes and goes, was really bad on tx, now just when I sweat or once a month thing. I figured it was just a menopause type thing, cuz of the timing, and doc seems to think so too. I've been thru several creams, some antibiotic-al types, etc etc. Too bad the doc can't put this stuff in a database and have like we do in quality control a column for " cause " and " effect " and " corrective action " and " is it fixed? " etc etc. (Maybe I should write the damn program! hahaha.. ok ok yes I'm anal that way.) Good luck and let us know how you progress. alley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
