The IP addresses on the two messages have been checked and the one used for the tom5255 message was not on his service providers network. This has been forwarded to a contact in the high tech crime unit along with all header data from our list server as this is an offence under the computer misuse act in the UK.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 This shows the problem with this " Group " - I too have heard nothing but good about Ex - med for the last few years, and would suggest that they are far more credible than many for preparing you as a Remote medic.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 Sonya, it depends on who you're asking! Are you asking people who've had the lap band or the RNY? Are you talking about right after surgery, 3 months post-op, a year post-op? I am almost 4 months post-op RNY. I don't eat a lot of solid food, but I don't try that hard to eat. I do try to drink at least 3 protein shakes every day (each with 30 grams of protein), and take vitamins. How much I eat depends on what type of food it is, and how much my body wants. Today for lunch I ate two tablespoons of salad (lettuce, celery, tomato, green pepper) with a drizzle of blue cheese dressing, a tablespoon of rice & peas, and about an ounce of chicken. This was my first time trying salad, and I don't normally eat rice, but I wanted to try having a regular meal. I will probably have a protein shake for dinner, unless I just get the urge to eat some solid food. I have been able to eat as much as 4 ounces of fish in one sitting, but that's with no side dishes or anything, and if my body is very hungry. I don't actually feel hungry most of the time. I do occasionally, but not often. HTH! --------------------- in Jamaica (yep, the island!)

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 I can give an example for me. Hi, I had the lapband surgery performed on March 1st. The first week post op, I could get in about 1 cup of broth, 1/2 cup of Jello. When I started solids, I could eat 1 cup of meat, 1 cup of veggies. After I had my first fill, only 1/4-1/2cup meat and maybe 1/4c veggies if I eat real slow. It also depends on the meat. For example, I can eat a can of tuna with mayo which is about 3/4 cup when it is prepared. But 1 cup of pork chop is HARD to get down plus something else. Some days I can maybe get 5 or 6 bites before I feel a "soft stop" (The first warning sign that I should stop) and sometimes I can chew really well and eat the whole cup with no problems but I am definitly full. Soft foods, I can eat a cup of cottage cheese and then a cup of pudding in one sitting if I wanted. (But I don't cuz it is a no no...AKA "Soft food syndrome" where you eat soft foods so they will go through your band easier). I hope this helps ya! (unknown) give me an example of how much and what you eat on a daily basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 The Merck Manual is a great resource for any of us to have. It goes nicely indepth with various diseases and illnesses, great for checking stuff out. It's HUGE, very thick. I bought mine on Amazon.com, and I bought a " used " copy, though it was actually new. So I got this huge, great book for $3 or so plus shipping!! Always check out the used sellers when you're buying something on Amazon, they are rated so you can tell if they are reputable.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Hi Ann.. I've been on and off of Enbrel for almost 5 years. I started it before it was even approved for PA. I had to insist on it and my RD had to threaten my insurance company for them to cover it at the time. Currently they cover 80%. I was one of the lucky ones that had immediate relief with Enbrel from the first injection. Before that I was in suicidal pain and my RD said I would lose the complete use of my hands within 3 months. He said I had the most aggressive case of PA affecting the hands he had ever seen. The other major treatments including Sulfasalizine and Methotrexate had failed me. I took one shot of Enbrel and the next day I was out of pain. Within 3 weeks all of the inflammation had resolved except for the permanent joint damage that was already there. I was able to stop all my other medications for pain and inflammation. In a couple of months my fingernails grew back and I had the concurrent effect of reducing my scalp psoriasis by about 75%. I say I was on and off Enbrel because it put me into remission for a year and a half. I had to reduce my dose when Enbrel was scarce a couple of years ago and realized that I did not need to have 2 injections a week to be stable. I later spaced out the injections until I was able to go completely off of it. Last year I had a flare and had to start Enbrel again but this time I only used one injection per week. Currently I am doing one injection every 2 weeks. This has brought the cost way down. I can tell if I am doing enough of the drug by the condition of my fingernails. If they start to recede I need to inject more often. The point I am making is that if Enbrel works for you may not have to do the full dose forever. Enbrel has the potential to cause remissions and the dose can be tapered to your personal situation. As far as side effects go, I have found Enbrel a bit stimulating, like drinking a cup too much coffee sometimes. I take a very low dose of Klonopin nightly to take that edge off but I am a very anxious and wiry person in any event. Not everyone has this effect. Most people simply report a welcome burst of energy and a feeling of well being. My RD calls it a mild euphoric effect. I inject at night about a half hour before bed and take my Klonopin right after the injection. I have not had any serious infections but I am very careful. I stop Enbrel if I have a cold and skip a dose before my teeth are cleaned. I wash my hands a lot and am very aware of personal hygiene and exposure to disease in general. This is not always easy with a child in elementary school and me at a university. I have had no trouble traveling domestically or internationally. In my opinion Enbrel is a much safer and more tolerable drug than MTX or Prednisone as well as statistically more effective. In short it has been a miracle for me. The new injection system is even less painful then the earlier one which was really inconsequential as far as pain and inconvenience. Personally, I think it should be the first drug used in the treatment of PA, not the last. It could cause a lot of remissions and prevent a lot of permanent joint damage and suffering. Sometimes you may just need to attenuate your hyperactive immune response with Enbrel until the it calms down again over time. I have no doubt that if I would have started Enbrel at the onset of the disease I would not have the frozen joints which are the legacy of my previous treatment options such as cortisone injections. Like I said before the result was immediate for me, but everyone is different. I would give it a few months to see if it truly will work for you. From what I have read Enbrel is about 50% effective. With PA that's as good as it gets. PA is a nasty, persistent disease. I sincerely hope Enbrel works as well for you as it has for me. I suggest you check out the archives on this site for my previous posts on Enbrel as well as the experiences of many other members. Cheers R.E. [ ] (unknown) After being on Methotrexate for 2 1/2 years, My rheumy prescribed me Enbrel. I talked to the pharmacist and my insurance company and it will be $1520 a month. My insurance company (double cross/blue weasel) will ultimately pay 70% of that, taking their sweet time, no doubt. OK, so we can afford this but it would not be real easy. I am wondering how long people here have been on it before finding out if it works for them? How long before the side effects show up? My Rheumy wrote me the script because I had a real bad three week period which she first blamed on the rain and then responded with " well you have a serious disease, what do you expect " {compassion maybe??} but that's another issue. I've been very fortunate with Methotrexate - although my ankle is pretty much destroyed, most of the time I haven't had other problems, and no problem with my liver or other side effects. Plus it is really affordable. So I'm hesitant. I have a second opinion with an out of town rheumy (I live in a real small town with only the one) in July. I would like to know how long before you know if this stuff is going to work its magic and when might the side effects show up......

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Ann, It can take anywhere between two weeks to three months to know if it will work for you. AND--these increased medical expenses?

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Hi Ann, You have the same question that I have experienced recently. Please, Please talk to your Rheumy and ask him how you should be feeling after using your first Enbrel. I listened to others with the remark " everyone is different... " and that is not what you should be going by. My Rheumy said that using Enbrel it should be right away that you should be having relief with your joints, swelling, etc. and it is not working if you are just having the high binge of energy. Like I said I went through the same exact thoughts as you and come to find out that Enbrel was not working for me. My hands and fingers are still swelling, knees and ankles, shoulders, etc. So now I'm having to go with the " big guns " Remicade. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask. God Bless, Susieesue. Ann Weekley <ann_weekley@...> wrote: After being on Methotrexate for 2 1/2 years, My rheumy prescribed me Enbrel.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Dear , My students are doing a poster presentation in 3rd week of July, One is doing Byetta. It works by enhancing the secretion of glucose-dependant insulin; glucagon-like peptide, mimicking incretin (another hormone that stimulates insulin secretion. It can not be used alone but inconjunction of other diabetes drugs. I am not familiar with the other drug's actions but will be as soon as I 'mentor' a student doing that one.(not this poster session though). Hope this helps you out.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 V - funny you should mention showering to remove " allergens " . Lately I've been going to work with wet hair, because it's so humid in NY. I'm fine with wet hair until I walk into work. I get slammed hard, hard, hard with symptoms. I leave early and jump directly into the shower at home. My symptoms ease within a couple of hours. (wet hair and all) I tried the whole shower cap, just bathe your body thing to see if I didn't have to put forth so much effort. It failed. A full, hot shower has been necessary.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 do you cause allergies on others? i think i do..... <denb15@...> escribió:V - funny you should mention showering to remove " allergens " . Lately I've been going to work with wet hair, because it's so humid in NY. I'm fine with wet hair until I walk into work. I get slammed hard, hard, hard with symptoms. I leave early and jump directly into the shower at home. My symptoms ease within a couple of hours. (wet hair and all) I tried the whole shower cap, just bathe your body thing to see if I didn't have to put forth so much effort. It failed. A full, hot shower has been necessary. I'm still in my experimental phase though. > i heard a doc on tv say the other day to wash your hair before going to bed.....to remove " allergens " > v. > > [] (unknown) > > > Can mold toxins cling to either your skin, hair or clothes in such a > way that your are causing severe allergic reactions, sniffles, > coughing > and wheezing, i other people you interact with opn a daily basis?

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 Might recall that Dr Klein and I had this " pillow talk " about spores in hair and that he went so far as to have his son shave his head before visiting Dr Klein's " safe room " . I decided to keep the hair but just wash it before sleep. But I do wear a hat when I'm entering a known " bad " zone to reduce follicular fungal transport by just doffing the hat when I'm out of the badness. Though I have had a coupl'a hats that I had to toss out after a while. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I did shave mine, but it still did not work... what about clothes and skin, can the spores cling on there? what can be done about it? erikmoldwarrior <erikmoldwarrior@...> escribió:Might recall that Dr Klein and I had this " pillow talk " about spores in hair and that he went so far as to have his son shave his head before visiting Dr Klein's " safe room " .

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I suppose you all have very short hair? Do you go to bed with wet hair or do you dry it thoroughly too. My hair takes forever to dry, thick and long-ish. I wash it in a.m. and let it airdry. I would like to go to bed with clean head though. Perhaps I need to cut then? Anyway, what do others do? > Might recall that Dr Klein and I had this " pillow talk " about spores > in hair and that he went so far as to have his son shave his head > before visiting Dr Klein's " safe room " . > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
