Guest guest Posted December 19, 2001 Report Share Posted December 19, 2001 I'd move to Bibb county! Even a 6 month wait would be worth it - when the 6 months is up. You have long term health problems, not JUST today. Sounds like you need to go to bed, take care of yourself. Drink lots of fluids. Don't stress out over all this.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2001 Report Share Posted December 20, 2001 Sheeesh Connie, what a bloody mess. Sorry you're sick, I hate having high temps...makes me even hotter that the " power surges " I sometimes get in the middle of the night LOL. Hmmmm, you are having the same trouble as me, although it's totally a different situation, it's still the fact that we don't know what to do. Claudine, I also meant to tell you that here in Canada, they only do a biopsy every 5 years. So, if my biopsy shows stage 1 or 2, and I waited 5 years hoping for the peg, then I'd miss out on the percentages of women who clear cuz we're pre-meno and are not stage 3 or 4 which makes it much harder to clear. See what I mean? What a quandry. Basically, the doctor said that if I waited 5 years and was in much worse shape, I'd blame it on him for not suggesting I do treatment now. I'm not going to think about this anymore until after the biopsy or I'll drive myself crazy..err, crazier. LOL Connie, about just being yourself and not acting like a lunatic...with me there is no difference most of the time anyway LOL. I'm wondering too where AlleyPat is? She usually reacts to the things you and I have posted in the last few days. ALLEY, speak up! Hugggs Carol Constance Dickson wrote: > > Well I went to my appt. last Friday.

You CAN sometimes drink too much water, and it will throw your electrolytes out of balance. Can make you feel really sick. Try replacing some of that water with sports drink - that could help a lot. The stuff for babies who have diarrhea, Pedialyte, is very good too, but costs a lot more than sport drink, and I think the sport drink tastes better too. My son's deployment was delayed for some reason, now he is not supposed to leave until after Christmas, which is good because he has been really sick. He got the flu vaccine about 2 weeks ago, then last Friday had flu-like symptoms and a mild sore throat. The doc gave him Amoxyciline, and Sunday he called saying he felt horrible, body aches, fever, and the back/roof of his mouth hurt. I told him to take some ibuprofen. Monday he called to say his whole entire mouth was sore! Told him to go back to doctor. Wed. he called to say his mouth - insides of cheeks, lips, and tongue were covered with sores, sounds like mouth ulcers or canker sores. The doc who looked in his mouth just glanced in and did nothing. He could barely talk, said he was in so much pain he couldn't eat anything at all. Sent him to buy some stuff to rub onto the sores to help with the pain. Doesn't sound like this military doctor is too great - makes me want to call him up and chew him out, lol! I just read recently an article on weird drug/virus interactions (you know, like aspirin taken during a viral infection in children can cause Reyes Syndrome) and the flu vaccine was one thing mentioned. I think he is having some sort of weird reaction to the flu shot, another virus, and the antibiotics - and maybe some stress thrown in too. He had already decided to not take anymore of the antibiotic in case he was having an allergic reaction to it. I don't know, but I had ONE of those sores in my mouth a few months ago, and it really hurt bad! (That's how I knew about the medicine to tell him to buy.) I can't imagine having a mouth full of them. I told him to go back to the doctor again, but I don't think they are going to do anything. Actually, I don't think there is much that can be done except wait for them to go away. I was kind of nice though that even at age 24 he still called his mommy when he got to feeling really sick! I'm still needed!!!! C __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2001 Report Share Posted December 20, 2001 In the Burn Unit I had something that caused my mouth to get sore all inside, have had it 2 times since then. I am trying to think of the name. They use nyastatin, not sure of spelling but that is what was used, HIV people get it a lot also. maybe think of it later. It is nice when they phone home when they are sick. My son has made a decision to join the Marines. --- claudine intexas <claudineintexas@...> wrote: > > Claudine How is your Son doing? > > You CAN sometimes drink too much water, and it will > throw your electrolytes out of balance.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2001 Report Share Posted December 20, 2001 I think the nyastatin is used for thrush - a yeast infection in the mouth, and it is common in people on antibiotics, especially for a long period of time. That was my first thought when he called the first time to say his mouth was sore. I had him look in a mirror, but there was no fuzzy white stuff, no white patches, like you see with thrush. There is a kind of mouth ulcer people with AIDs get too. Also, with syphilis. I HOPE neither of those is his problem. I don't think so. I got thrush my first week on combo treatment! It was the only time in my life I had it. Yuk! That hurt too. I don't think it's a common side effect of treatment, my doctor seemed VERY puzzled by it.

That was my first thought when he called the first time to say his mouth was sore. I had him look in a mirror, but there was no fuzzy white stuff, no white patches, like you see with thrush. There is a kind of mouth ulcer people with AIDs get too. Also, with syphilis. I HOPE neither of those is his problem. I don't think so. I got thrush my first week on combo treatment! It was the only time in my life I had it. Yuk! That hurt too. I don't think it's a common side effect of treatment, my doctor seemed VERY puzzled by it.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2001 Report Share Posted December 20, 2001 Thanks I was ready to start banging my head against the wall...lol. I have had it twice while on treatment, also 1 time in burn unit, I was receiving antibiotics 24/7 intravenously (sp). I recognize it whenever I get it. I don't think the 2 alternatives you came up with are his problem. My Mom, use to call what it sounds like he has, a stomach ulcer. Guess what the cure was.....lol, think all Moms used laxatives. Actually there was a certain one called Caroid and Bile Salts, it would get rid of them I have had them too, man they hurt. Pharmacist might be able to steer you if you decide you want them. Asked one here a while back and he said they are still around, just not kept on shelves anymore....Good Luck with Him...Connie --- claudine intexas <claudineintexas@...> wrote: > I think the nyastatin is used for thrush - a yeast > infection in the mouth, and it is common in people > on > antibiotics, especially for a long period of time. > That was my first thought when he called the first > time to say his mouth was sore.
