Guest guest Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Hi Mom, It could be stress aggravating your CMT. Have you tried any Vitamin C yet? Quote
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 No, Mom, you are not crazy! If anything, you may just be more aware of symptoms now, since you have joined the group and are just understanding how diverse CMT symptoms can be. Add to that you have all the children and you may perhaps be a bit stressed out with your recent diagnosis, the children, life in general. Stress itself is known to exacerbate CMT symptoms. I will go find something on stress and post soon. (meant to do this for Elaina too) ~ Gretchen Quote
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 Did your doctor give you any new meds? 'Cause Topomax, which is supposed to help nerve pain, increased all my symptoms 10-fold. It always takes me a while to figure out that it's the medicine that is the problem Quote
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 you aren;'t crazy. I think that since you now have a diagnosis you are probably just more aware of the pain that was already there. that is just my opinion and opinions are like noses everybody hs one. keep smiling! it makes people wonder what you have been up too.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 Well, if you are crazy that makes both of us crazy because the same thing happened to me. I always had the numbness, pain, and weakness, but it wasn't until after I was diagnosed that the symptoms got worse. I also thought it may have been from intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment. I received several treatments of this product because the dr. initially thought that I had Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy or CIDP. Anyway...I'm Ok,,,You're Ok. Quote
Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 I am so very sorry you lost your boyfriend. You emailed me the other day. May I ask what did they say was the reason for his death. Did they do an autopsy. I can't imagine your dispair, it is bad enough to get sick but to have someone pass away because of mold is terrible. Bless you. I wonder if anyone has talked to the lawyers that are working on that judge's case that died in Miami. Actually my mom knows his brother. She didn't realize it at first when I sent her the article about the judge but later realized the judge was related to someone she knew. I think they had another death in the family so she was waiting a while to give her condolences. Quote
