Guest guest Posted September 13, 2001 Report Share Posted September 13, 2001 This problem can be very frustrating. I have a doctor who talks at the speed of light, stutters and has a lisp to boot! At first, he was very hard. I had to slow the tape, backup constantly and relisten. I would even just keep going and then go back and relisten to the whole thing. Now he is my favorite doctor and I have no problem understanding what he is saying. All I can say is hang in there and it will get easier as time goes on. Good luck to you val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 Hello all, To this date, I know that on County EMS WILL NOT permit employees to wear shorts. Generally, it is the choice of our Director Of Emergency Management and Director of Operations that we remain in the standard EMS pants. Our county is a VERY CONSERVATIVE county, and they feel that our citizens would appreciate the professional image of full length pants.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 If you have ever seen Junior's legs you would know why!!!

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 We allow our employees to wear shorts as long as they are dark blue or black and of reasonable length.

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 <<but what in the world would make my legs hurt so bad? >> Well, I hope it's not phlebitis! I have had that several times. It hurts like crazy. If one leg is fatter than the other, go quickly to a hospital!!!!! On the other hand, it could be your diabetes med....and I'm clueless about that. Ask a doc. (wsm311@...)

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 not sure what that is, but no, they are both long, thin and shapely (ok, but they do look the same, lol). don't want to be a drama queen or one of those folks who delights in bad health, but i also realize that we have lots of goodies to deal with, and i was hoping this was just one of those things and comes and goes. pat > Well, I hope it's not phlebitis!

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 all i have is dried bananas, but even tho' it's a little heavy on calories and carbs (at least the little bag i have), i decided to munch some, because this pain was horrible (or at least, very uncomfortable). i figured it was one of those good things, but i guess i hadn't paid a lot of attention to the posts up until now, because i didn't have it. they seem to feel better now, but i bet they will feel a lot better when they are not carrying as much weight too. i was told by the dietitian that since i adore bananas, about 3/4 of a regular size one was ok. i'm guessing that if i freeze half of it, i can put it in a blender, and have a 'smoothie' or something like that one morning, or whatever. like i said, i have notes of when to work in some of this stuff, but my head is just too full tonite to try to figure it out. but i think i'm gonna try to have the philosophy of the more successful folks and that is to control this little challenge and win. i just love winning. pat > > I read labels on everything... it's become 2nd nature :-) > Sandy > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 my mom had bad circulation and was told to have a banana and yogurt before bed to relieve cramps. these are not cramps, but a dull, prolonged aching, like i have walked about 20 miles. Pat, That sounds like the aching I had in my legs from glucophage, and others have mentioned that too... i'm on atenelol (think i spelled it right) for BP, and i am overweight. i had held off bananas because i heard on here that they are high i something. Carbs... but also high in potassium. my brain is hurting too. we went down the aisles and as much as i adore math, we were counting calorie/fat grams. i did the 1-2-3: carbs, calories, fat, and i was about ready to cry again. i'm guessing this gets better the more we read labels. I read labels on everything... it's become 2nd nature :-) Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Jane Anne, I had kidney infections frequently before and after PLS. Last year around this time I had a kidney stone. The first thing the urologist asked is do you have kidney infections often. There are a lot of reasons for an infection so don't jump to conclusions right away. Have your doctor send you to a urologist if the second infection doesn't clear up.............Flora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Jane Anne, Sorry you're having a tough time. Kidney infections are no fun but can happen to one at any age. Hang in there and take your medicine so you'll get better. Getting old does have some advantages. When they play a song on the radio and I know the words, my kids are amazed...never mind the original version came out in 1942!!!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 --Jane Anne, I don't think it is part of PLS as I had one way back when I was 20. I get bladder infections once in a while, you just have to remember to drink lots of water. I also take a vit c tablet every day so my urine stays acidy. I feel for you as I rememer it was quite painfull. I got one as I didn't take time away from my job to go to the bathrooom often enough or drink water like I should have.

Is this part of PLS or just getting old. I don't like being ill and can not adjust to this very well. Am having pity party today. I want to look forward to more in life than being ill with something. I use to enjoy life can not say it now. > > > Jane Anne King > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Hi Jane Anne: I used to get bladder infections periodically but now I try to drink cranberry juice every morning and I do have cranberry pills that are equivalent to an 8 oz. glass of cranberry juice. You might want to give this a try. Jo! Re: QUESTION > --Jane Anne, I don't think it is part of PLS as I had one way back > when I was 20.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 I have a really hard time keeping the positive attitude that many of you have. And I can't seem to concentrate the bad times into something I can get through and then move on. Every morning finds me in a haze of pain that takes a while to dissipate. Part of the problem is that the downward spiral continues at a rapid rate. And my dx of PLS is tentative. Sherry I really admire the way you deal with your dx of ALS. Well enough feeling sorry for myself for now! Jane D. in Gainesville Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Hi Laurel, I do take a prescription anti-depressant (Lexapro - a new one) and I'm sure it helps. Depression runs in my family and I had taken anti-depressants before for other reasons. Had been off ot them for a couple of years when PLS came along. Thanks for your reply. Jane D.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Hi and Dolores, Thanks for your replies! This is a great group. is there a place on-line to read that article about PLS (deos it exist?)? I think I found it once but a subscription was required. Jane D.
