Guest guest Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Just to update everyone.. Edumom and I chatted for quite a while this morning and again this afternoon... Some of the problem has to do with the thyroid tests that were run and a question about her dosing... whole long story cut short.. this may very well be adrenal due to the thyroid issues... we're waiting for the hard copies of her labs to show and hopefully getting some things straightened out about what was tested and if the dose she's just started is correct.... There are so many variables with this stuff and so many directions things can go.... that it's really important, I think, if you have a bad feeling about something.. or are feeling worse than you think is normal.. please.. come talk to us.. or contact me or if you don't have the energy to talk to a whole group and repeat things over and over... and I started this group to help... to guide.. to share knowledge... to share experiences with each other... we learn just as much from you as you do from us... we need each other to get through this... Never, ever be afraid to ask... for suggestions, for comments, for opinions OR for help... Everybody got that written on a post it note on their monitors? I will NOT be afraid I will ask a question when I have one I will read and learn with an open mind and apply what I have learned to my situation if it is applicable. If I do not understand I will ask for clarification. If it looks WRONG I will share my thoughts with others so that everyone understands, no matter if it turns out that I am right or wrong I want to learn! * stealthily slide soap box under the desk.. watching to make sure that no one starts throwing green tomatoes at me - the HURT!* Topper () On Mon, 30 Aug 2004 05:19:36 -0700 (PDT) edumom writes: I've been in excruciating pain for a full week, taking 12 to 16 ibuprofen, 200 mg a piece. The pain is in the same region as where my kidney stone pain was several years ago. I've had the pain on and off for about 3 years now, was checked for kidney stones and kidney infection, all results negative. The pain has never lasted this long without stopping. The ibu. takes away the worst of the pain but certainly doesn't do away with it. It's exhausting me. [more than usual] After an hour of the pain, I go to bed for a few hours and sleep and have nightmares about pain. I just want to know if it's worth it to see a docter again. I've stopped the pregnenolone because I don't understand why I was taking it. I'm going to the mall tomorrow...have to take the kids to the dentist...I think there's some kind of supplement store there, I'll look for the adrenal stuff. I have to hound my advisor today to get re-enrolled for college, and we scheduled today as our 1st day of homeschool. I can't be this sick. Please don't anyone be offended by my whining. I just can't take it today. I just want help. sincerely, edumom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
