Guest guest Posted April 12, 2001 Report Share Posted April 12, 2001 Hello - I'm still waiting to hear from Hopkins (1 month now). While I was hospitalized two weeks ago, they did another MRI on me which showed that I do have a chiari, and Lord knows I have enough of the symptoms, just can't get the doctors to listen.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2001 Report Share Posted April 12, 2001 HI ! I am also having my surgery this month, on the 23rd. I live in Columbus, Ohio and am having the surgery at Grant Hospital. My nsg's name is Dr. Larry Armstrong. In my opinion he has got to be one of the best around. Not just with chiari but just a good person. I guess I have to say he's a good surgeon.......what else would I say about someone who is going to cut my head open! LOL Good luck with your surgery!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2001 Report Share Posted April 12, 2001 Hi Bridget! I am really surprised to find two people from Ohio this week on this site. I am so happy that this site exists, as I have been diagnosed with a " :moderate " Chiari 1 Malformation the week before Christmas, and of course, had never heard of Chiair Malformations. Chip's web site was so educational for me. Because of web sites like this, I can honestly say that I understand exactly what Chiari is, but won't know how bad mine is until I see the nsg on July 2, 2001. I am still in the process of seeing a nsg, which will now be at the Cleveland Clinic. His name is Dr. Benzel and he is one of two experts listed there, in the area of Chiari Malformations. The other Doctor is for children. I live in Kingston, Ohio, which is approximately 50 miles south of Columbus. Good luck with both your surgery and 's. Please keep me informed. Have a great Easter! Patty cydrus@... How did you find your doctor and how many surgery's has he performed?

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2003 Report Share Posted July 14, 2003 Hi there and welcome !! I'm a newbie to this group too, only a week here now and I've found this to be the most friendly and welcoming place ever and the folks here - the best!! You have a shoulder (dozens) and ears, we're here for you! I can relate to the clotting side of life only too well, first clot which became a PE at age 22 (1985) and just 3 years ago I was diagnosed as a Thrombophiliac, problems continued and I was recently put in the classification of APC-R (activated Protein C Resistance) which could still be attributed to FVL (don't know yet, I see the hemotologist next week), same day I find out about the APC-R I find out (officially) I have secondary Raynaud's Phenomena (which was only found due to extra blood work and symptoms thanks to an astute specialist) and the verdict on Lupus is still coming. Which comes first - the chicken or the egg? heh, that's what has me curious I don't know which has caused what or if they all occured together. for me though the APCR side of it is hereditary and I'm on thinners for life <sigh>. So girl, if there is anything you want to know or would like to share, I'm sure someone here can help you in one degree or another, either with personal experience or via links and damned good advise once again hon, welcome and remember you aren't alone - get your family to read the posts here too, you'll find it'll help them ... my daughter reads (and giggles at times) over my shoulder but leaves the receiving of all the emails to me, she says - why double up? - typical teen cheers and hugs from the Land of Oz - Rita > Hi there. I want to say thank you for the warm welcome and let you know a little about myself. Well I am 19 turning 20 in August and live in upstate/western NY. I was diagnosed in June 2001 with SLE. I had spent the previous 3-4 months thinking that I was insane because they couldn't find anything wrong with me. I lost the use of my arms and legs at times but was determined to get an answer. I went to a Rhumetologist and he told me that it was Lupus. That my ANA and Sed rates showed it. I was shocked and started crying. Over the past 2 years now I have also been diagnosed with Fibromayalgia, Bi Polar, and a mild case of Carpel Tunnel. The reason I found the Lupies website is because I was researching blood clots in people with Lupus. I just recently found out I have a blood clot from my knee down, which was misdiagnosed as a flare-up at first. I am now on blood thinners and just finished a round of Lovenox shots 2x's a day. I have missed 2 weeks of work and am going crazy laying in> bed all day. My family, my mom in particular, has been terrific but they just don't understand. I have these days that it just seems pointless to get out of bed because I know what joint aches and pains are to come. I guess I wanted to join Lupies is to have a shoulder to cry on from someone who can better understand my pain. So thank you for welcoming me to your group and hope to hear from you soon.> Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2003 Report Share Posted August 2, 2003 Welcome Ellen, I hope you enjoy this group as much as I have. and too all the others who have joined in the past week or two. love Carol (unknown) Hi my name is Ellen M or most people just call me LUV.... I have had sle lupus sence the begening of 1998, but I showed many signs long before then. I had a really bad stroke in may of 1998 which took me 2 years to learn how to fully walk again ( at the age of 37). I still suffer from right sided weakness from it. I now suffer from seizures, small TA's, asthyma, shortness of breath, constant leg cramps, constant swelling, sleep apnea, and depression. I am 42 but I often feel like im 82. I am presently taking 17 different meds on a daily basis. I often try to get my doc to take me off of some but he says i need them all. I would love to be able to get off of some of the meds cause i fear that some of my problems are from the meds and not the lupus, but I dont know where to begain. Well I guess thats enough about me. Thank you all for allowing me into your group.Have a super day, LUV ---<---<---{@} Protect your PC - Click here for McAfee.com VirusScan Online "The LUPIES Store" Come check out our store...http://www.cafepress.com/thelupies"The LUPIES Web Page"http://www.itzarion.com/lupusgroup.html"The LUPIES online photo albums!"

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks Kate, It's good to see you too. Being around sick children always makes me nervous. Seems like they're always carrying something, and I'm the target. I'm not around my family often, but it seems like when I am, that's usually when they're sick. I'm going to have to have a talk with my daughter and ask her to please make sure her kids are clean and healthy when they come to visit. Of course with her BPD, I'm sure she's going to take complete offense and make it seem that I don't want her and her kids around. LOL Love and Blessings... Val MS and BPD Awareness valsafemail@...

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Hiya Val,   When I was younger (19), I was dx'd as BPD. I KNOWwhat you mean about how your daughter may take the comment about her kids. Don't make it about her kids,make it about you, ok? Say, I really need to stay well, soI need to stay away from kids and people who are sickor unwell. This way perhaps she won't personalize it toomuch, as that is when the BPD rears it's ugly head. Weget all 'black and white" about things, and think every-one hates us, and our kids...been there, done that...You take care of you, Val. blessings and love,Kate (unknown)> To: mserslife@yahoogrou ps.com> > > Hello all,>  The past two days have been very hectic > around here.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Thanks Kate! It's really nice to know someone who knows what I'm talking about. is in denial at this time. Even though she's been diagnosed with BPD, she keeps saying she never was. I know she was, because I was there. The good news is, she has a therapist that goes to her house once a week and spends about an hour with her. She also has to check in with her psych once a month to have her meds monitored. I'll tell ya. As bad as she is with her meds, I am so thankful that she's at least taking them, because she's a thousand times worse without them.. I joined a group several months ago for parents who have children with BPD. I haven't been to it since my 'puter went on the blink. I need to get back on there, I suppose. I'm trying to set an example for my kids. You know, get involved and learn about health issues that effect our loved ones? In all the years that I've had MS, no one in my family has taken the time to find out what it is. And when I tell them anything, they are so indifferent. Maybe when they see that I'm interested in their issues, they just might show a little interest in mine. Of course, I'm not going to hold my breath. LOL Well, I'll close for now. Again, thank you so much for your input. I really do appreciate it. Love and blessings... Val MS and BPD Awareness valsafemail@...
