Guest guest Posted January 21, 2002 Report Share Posted January 21, 2002 Pretty soon, every symptom I have ever had will be linked to PA. I have suffered with sinus problems all my life. I have food and pollen allergies. I have suffered from heartburn for years, but those have also been the years I have had problem keeping weight down, so it seemed logical. Celebrex was murder on the heartburn, but I have managed the Vioxx. Once you link it to hemorroids, I think you have me covered LOL!

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2002 Report Share Posted January 21, 2002 Hi Di -- Boy, I almost thought I was writing! It's amazing to me how many things so many of us have in common. For me, its allergies -- both food and other -- sinus problems, heartburn.... Keep smilin'. -- Jan O', Alaska Costello wrote: > Pretty soon, every symptom I have ever had will be linked to PA.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2002 Report Share Posted January 22, 2002 Ta da! Believe it or not constipation is a side effect of poor vitamin and mineral absorption (which many docs are finding PAers have)...which can lead to hemorrhoids. You're covered! hee hee deano P.S. Have you heard of grapefruit seed extract? I'm taking it to help stabilize my gut flora but it also is known to help with sinus problems. I've seen my sinuses improve quite a bit and didn't realize it until recently as I was focused on other parts of my body.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2002 Report Share Posted January 22, 2002 Thanks Deano. That does it! Everything is related to PA. Wait...does that include incredibly long labors (three days) and placenta previa. How about 6 mos of 24-hr a day morning sickness for three pregnancies (yes, I'm an idiot). Sorry to laugh on line, but I have just spent two days with an itchy, swollen, rash-covered body--while teaching English--due to a reaction to Plaquenil! I needed to vent!

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2002 Report Share Posted January 22, 2002 --I had something similar where If I lay down I can basically feel the rotation of the earth. kind of like the " bed spins " what helps is to go to the chiropractor. If you dont feel comfortable with that, shake your head hard like when you get water in your ears. I read that this can (though not always) be caused by calcifications in your inner ear. Hope this helps. A ] - In @y..., " Tammy Bird " <tbird@v...> wrote: > Hi my PA family. > > I have recently developed what my doctor has diagnosed as benign positional vertigo. With this, I have developed heartburn (mostly when my stomach is empty) and a terrible sinus drainage. My ruemy has indicated that this is probably PA related. Has anyone else had this happen? I have had terrible sinus problems, but it has never been this bad. Siiiigh. One would think that the pains we endure would end somewhere, huh? > > Tammy > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 These are funny stories about PA causing everything including hemorrhoids unless they have just happened to be your hemorrhoids. I have never had problems with hemorrhoids until 12/01. I went from one hard bowel movement and a hemorrhoid (when you have them you learn to spell them correctly) popped up. Doc. Mac lanced it and sent me home. Next week a new one popped up. I ended up having hemorrhoid surgery just before Christmas. The Cause: Prolonged use of prednisone 20 mg or more for 4+ years has thinned the skin on the surface of my body, skin tears easily. Now, water, Fiber-ease, surfak, Milk of Magnesia helps keep me loose and moving. But, my wife has arthritis problems just as severe as me, so she understands. We truly know what Love is when you deal with a fecal impaction for your spouse of 25 years. Dr. Dan --- Costello <costello@...> wrote: > Thanks Deano. That does it! Everything is related > to PA.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2002 Report Share Posted January 24, 2002 Dan, that was a wonderful, inspiring message ) ... very uplifting. I think PAer's go through so many things that are not officially connected to the disease... with this group we are able to find out we have much more in common than doctors, research, and the medical textbooks and community are aware of. I have been through this painful surgery 19 years ago, that is one experience I hope never to repeat, ouch. Unfortunately, many of the medicines... including even the topical steroid creams and ointments cause thinning of our skin. This should be listed on a questionnaire in the future... who has had problems such as these....we also should be aware of medicines that are known to cause constipation (one is codeine...). I would be interested to find out how fellow PAer's have been affected by medications, in relation to the mentioned topic (which is obviously NOT heartburn and sinuses... like written above, ha) Have a nice day, #2 > > > > > Pretty soon, every symptom I have ever had will > > be linked to PA.
