Guest guest Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Interesting that you mention neurontin. I am taking it for problems from my head injury as there is a numb, burning, tingling sensation on my left side. It has helped because I have so much pain and that is just one less. It seems that so many of the problems I am having from "brain injury" overlaps with information on this site. Makes me wonder how much is traumatic brain injury and how much is really the hepc. Appreciate all the info shared on this site.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I have had Raynaud's for a number of years and it is the pits. Was in a research study for 2 years and they had no good results. Just try different types of socks and gloves and hang in there. Cold weather or a/c really cool in the summer sets it off and often if my nerves get bad (high stress level) it raises it's ugly head. KathyDelores DelRio <dramamyqueen@...> wrote: , Ask your physician whether it could be Raynaud's Syndrome. That is an autoimmune problem that frequently affects HCV patients. Keep those tootsies nice and warm and if it is Raynaud's that should help a bit. Delores <Bnhoffer2@...> wrote: Anyone ever have "circulation" problems with HepC.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 - that also sounds quite a bit like cryoglobulinemia, which docs are discovering is affecting a number of folks with HepC. Do a google search on that and see if it fits. I think essentially is caused by your immune system freaking out after being overloaded for so many years fighting the Hep. I have it, and the only thing we can actually do is Stay Warm. Coldness brings it on and actually damages tissue, joints and organs. Frostbite happens at much lower exposure rates than to the normal population. If you have it it is imperitive to stay warm. Maybe you should get those wool socks on just in case, until your doc can test for it. Good luck in Minneapolis. Let me know what the hep doc says.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 hello Pam, i have heard nothing but good things about Baylor, i bet you are in good hands there. i am soooo sorry that you are experiencing the heart beats, sweats, etc...but good to hear that your heart is ok. did they difinitvely (sp?) diagnose you with primary aldosternism? wondering if you possibly have a pheo...what kind of labs did you have done? any 24 hr urines? if so, what were the results, please share them with us, the more info the better...we are all in the same boat here, just trying to paddle a sinking ship (whoo, bad metaphores...) keep us posted on what is happening next...I am at the stage of having a bunch of labs done on tuesday, and depending on the results possibly having venous sampling...did you have that done? what meds are you on? are they working? I am on a potassium supplement, BB, CCB, Inspra and a potassium sparing diuretic and still having problems with my BP and low potassium...yeesh, i hate taking all these pills!! about your headaches -- i am curious because i have been suffering from transformed migraines, or chronic daily headaches, for almost 2 years now...finally finding some relief (one day last week, and 2 days this week) from the preventatives i am trying...what kind of headaches and where to they hurt (ie, temples, band of pain around head, back of head, pounding, throbbing, burning, pressure, etc.). would love to compare notes...so far am not sure if my headaches are because of the PA or just something else going on...do you just get the headaches when your BP is up? wishing you the best, Kim in MN > > Hi all, > I have been struggling with tachycardia, sweats, severe headaches and i am extremely anxious, I feel like i can barely function, work, i believe i am at the point of needing intervention with this adrenal tumor.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Hi Pam; Has your doctor tested you for thyroid? The sweats, heart racing can be from thyroid malfunctioning. Are you on spiro? and how much? I notice when I am under a lot of stress this happens to me. The thought of being stressed out makes me sweat and my heart starts to pound. I can overgo this if I know I am going to be in a stressful situation and I take an extra 25mg spiro(normally I take 100/day) an hour before and that helps a lot. If not I take 25mg extra as soon as I realize I am under a lot of pressure. But dont make a regular habbit out of it.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 The book costs less than $8 US for gods sake. But then you need to decide how much your health is worth. You can find them online for $4.The seven days is a good start. Just repeat it for another week or 2. CE Grim MDOn Feb 26, 2010, at 12:15 PM, moseleymand@... wrote:I can't afford to buy the book.
