I'm sure it is not acid reflux. Had many problems

with that and esophagitis<sp?> years ago.

This is a different burning sensation

not related to my digestive tract.

Dana,

I have the same problem with the pain and burning feeling on my left

side.It is not constant but I have had the pain for a year or so and my

dr. has no idea...ofcourse...he just gives me Vioxx for pain,which I

DON'T take.I am going to be tested for Hashi's next month.Maybe there is

a link with that to the left side pain.WHO knows???

Deneen:)

[Guest guest]

hi dana, i have Hashi's also. I've not experienced what you described. i agree

with Tina...if the pain is also in your arm, best to rule out heart problem.

i did have chest pains every day but none of the other pains with it. when i got

thyroid meds, chest pains went away.

sorry you're going through this. hope you feel better. hugs, sheila

Hi Dana,

I too have hashis and I have been having problems with similar chest pain

complaints, in fact it was one of the reasons I first went to my doc for

investigation before I was diagnosed with thyroid probs. I was very concerned as

there is a very strong family history of heart disease on both sides of my

family.

However, following an ECG (electrocardiogram) they said my heart appeared

normal, which was a relief but the pain continued. They then said it could be

acid refulx but it never seemed to occur after eating. I returned to my docs and

they then said that it was costachondral pain and told me to take anti

inflammetory pain killers such as Ibuprofen, and suggested it was linked to a

form of anxiety attack.

When I am having a 'bad thyroid day' as I have come to call them, I do notice

that the pain is wosre. I also get anxiety attacks when I need my dose of

Levothyroxine increasing and also when my chest pain seems at it's worst. I have

been told by my doctor that if it continues I will get a cardiac echo scan done

in light of my family history. So far my new dose of thyroxine has kicked in and

the pain seems to have subsided.

Popular painkillers containing ibuprofen should be taken off supermarket

shelves, Australian Medical Association president Bill Glasson said today.

The US Food and Drug Administration has launched a consumer advertising campaign

advising medication containing ibuprofen can cause kidney damage and stomach

bleeding when taken with prescription drugs including diuretics.

Dr Glasson said the AMA had raised concerns with the federal government more

than a year ago about the availability of drugs containing ibuprofen which

include painkillers Nurofen, Herron Blue, Advil and Panafen IB.

" We think it's a backward step to move drugs from pharmacy shelves and put them

onto supermarket shelves when a lot of those drugs do have side-effect profiles

that really require the expert advise of a pharmacist, " Dr Glasson told the Nine

Network

" We're concerned particularly about this drug (ibuprofen) that can have

significant gastro-intestinal side effects as well as renal side effects,

particularly when taken with other drugs such as diuretics.

" We need to look at the process by which we list these drugs and make sure we

try to protect the public and not try to protect necessarily the profits of drug

companies. "

Dr Glasson said older patients who take more medications were likely to to

suffer side effects.

" Even for a middle-aged healthy person, if you take these drugs in excess

quantities you should be aware of the possible side effects.

Thanks, I'm sure it all goes back to my thyroid.

It's not just ibuprofen. All of the NSAID family, including Tylenol,

tear up the kidneys when combined with alcohol. Contrary to advice we

were given in the 1980's and earlier, such damage is permanent and

cumulative.

My son is 3.5 and was diagnosed with verbal and oral motor aptaxia

when he was two.

I have noticed behavior that concerns me, if anyone has experienced

this with their own child or has any ideas please share...

My son on two occasions now has said a word that he is very familiar

with, peanut butter (and on another occasion , picnic,) and

prounounced it " pato " (picnic was poo)He looked very disturbed when he

was saying the word, like he knew he was saying it wrong but could do

nothing to change the pronuciation. He repeated the words over and

over until he became hysterical...very sad.

His SLP had me call the dev. ped and she said if it happens again we

will need an EEG to check for abcense seizures.

Has anyone experienced this?

Also my mother and sister called my attention to the fact that

whenever my son is having a difficult time speaking (he has frequent

disflencies also...) he moves his left foot incessently. I had never

noticed this but it is true...

Please if anyone knows anything I would be very thankful for information

[Guest guest]

Ok, if you want, I have saved the messages that I found to be the most

informative ones on Vit E and I can email you the word document as an

attachment, just let me know! Deborah

This is not unusual, even with words the child used frequently.

Families and therapists work hard to maintain words that have been

acquired, but sometimes this does happen. Sometimes is takes time

to get them back and sometimes they seem to come back on their own.

It is baffling really. Katina
