I Am Suffer

PAIN! To those legit (chronic, acute, every freaking day hr., min of ur life) pain sufferers, I'm one. Tired of being judged, esp when pain cannot be seen, i.e. migraines +12 more issues = Pain at a level of 10+. When 1 Dr. says do / 1 says dont -pain meds or anything else, I find it frustrating and humiliating. "It's in ur head, take a Tylenol!". 30 months of GI pain and no one listened. 16 months ago I was in the ER (10 more days-dead). Still dealing with pain that's worse every day. To All: u may not know or see it but there's a lot of ill people without Opioids -we don't function. Open ur freaking minds Healthcare & all other people. Last, DO NOT CONFUSE "DEPENDENT" With Addicted, (or that my brain is giving false pain signals). This is a comp...

One year ago I started Chantix. In my third week I had my first seizure; last week I had my sixth episode of "ALTERED MENTAL STATUS". What's scary is, now I losing my memory. Besides the fact that my brain vibrates all the time I just don't feel solid anymore. If I could do anything to keep anyone from taking this drug I would. It worked for my husband, but it's not worth the risk that it might mess you up like it did me. ## Hello, Janice! How are you? I'm very sorry about what happened to you! What medication are you on for the seizures? Anticonvulsants are well known to cause memory issues, along with irritability, weight changes and mood swings. So, it may be due to that, rather than the Chantix. ## I started the anticonvulsants only after the last seizure and...

I am taking Monticope and want to know if it will help me? I have taken only one tablet so far. ## Monticope contains Montelukast and Levocetirizine, it is used to allergies. Learn more Montelukast details here. Learn more Levocetirizine details here. That said, it's not likely to help much with chicken pox, since that's not an allergic reaction, but a virus. If you want to relieve the associated itching, a topical cream or ointment that can help would most likely give you much more relief. How long have you had it? ## Its my 6th day of chicken pox. so what should i do for my disease to try some other medicine or something else. Please Help Me. ## I had chicken pox a year ago and have never let my skin heal. I scratch or dig with my nails all the time. I even do it when I am sle...

I have been using Tramadol for around 3-4 months, so a puppy in comparision to others. My problem is that I have gone from 500-600mg/day down to 50mg in a week and I have never felt so bad in all my life. When I was younger I messed around with recreational drugs and never had a downer like this. I feel unable to stop my emotions falling out of my face at any given moment, if I sweat any more I am going to be tiny (42lbs lost so far). My week has been M,12 - T,10 - W,8 - T,4 - F,2 - S,1 - S,0. I have not been at work for a week or so due to feeling so bad and really need to get back before I get the bullet.

I am truly concerned about all of the people who are chronic pain sufferers who are unable to find satisfactory treatment. Several years ago, after 20 years of taking all of the usual pain meds, I stumbled across the "Spinal Chord Stimulator" and the "Morphine Pain Pump". I have had a pain pump over a year now and it has truly changed my life. Of course, like every new pain treatment, they were only used on cancer patients, etc. But they are being used now for chronic pain sufferers who have a definable, (diagnosed by reputable Dr's) untreatable pain source. The company that manufactures these products is MEDTRONICS. I promise you I do not work for them and I am not being compensated for this. I just know what it is like to suffer debilitating pain. I also understand...

y husband has a severe curvature of the spine along w/ other conditions relating to that. He has been going to the same pain management dr for almost 20 years and has been on oxycodone or a similar medication for the same period of time. He has had all sorts of MRI's, in office proceedures, etc. He has been to a specialist in Boston who told him he would need to be the full length of his torso in the back and would require a long incision in the front as well, and then the outcome would be doubtful. My husband is close to 70 years old, actively working and in pain most of the time. The surgeon told us that the recovery from the surgery he would need would be challenging even for a young person. He would perform it and told him he didn't know of any doctor that would. We have had...

Hi, My name is Albert (35)Male and bit of obese. living south India. I am taking Omez 20mg from past 6 years I feel comfortable and no GERD problem and I have find any problem(side effects) so far. Please advice is it OK to continue with same medicine or should I have to switch. And will be there any problem in furhter since I have taken this Omez 20mg for 6 years. Please give me your valuable suggestion. ## Have you consulted your doctor and are they aware that you've been taking it continuously for so long? The issue here is that these types of medications are not actually recommended for such long-term usage. Omeprazole and its relatives, are usually only used for 2 to 4 months, then discontinued, so they haven't actually been studied for their long-term effects.

i am suffering from loose motion since 1 yrs. i have taken many medicines for its cure but nothing happened. i also went doctor but after the end of medicine effect loose motion start again. please help me . what can i do to stop this? ## What types of foods are in your usual diet? That's usually the first place you should look. There may be something that you are ingesting regularly that doesn't agree with your body and could be causing the problem. Lactose intolerant people frequently suffer from these types of problems, when they eat or drink any type of dairy products, such as milk, yogurt or cheese. Something that may help you figure out the problem is keeping a daily food diary, where for each meal you right down everything you eat or drink, you'll also want to make su...

I began taking Gabapentin for terrible nerve pain, tingling, and numbness in both legs, from the thigh to the knee, particularly when I'm lying down. I also feel one arm go completely numb when I keep it raised for any period of time. Example: holding up my Kindle to read, or my phone to play Words With Friends. My internist prescribed it for me after I told him the pain was unbearable, and keeping me up at night. The side effects began once I had titrated up to my full dose of 300 mg., 3 times a day, for a total of 900 mg. The side effects were terrible. The dizziness and double vision got worse and worse with each passing day. Some days I was terribly nauseous, and most of the time, towards evening, I developed a raging headache. There were days I knew it was unsafe to drive. I ha...

3weeks ago I had my 4th prolia injection. I am 68 years young. Before this my side effects were mild. This time I've had neck ache on either side of the vertebrae sometimes going to the top of my head. Also ear ache on one side. Delicate skin when I touch the side of the ear and head. I have tried pain killers but when I stop it comes back. I feel tired and not myself at all. Any suggestions? Or ideas of what alternatives there are after these 5 months are over. I've had fosilan, daily, monthly, aclasta and now prolia. Needless to say I have osteo. ## Dear Diane , with the pain u r having, I would suggest staying on the pain pills if they r helping.

Why is the government making it so hard on doctors that they are not able to prescribe pain medication to patients with documentation of their illnesses? There has always been and will always be people who abuse any thing and every thing. But when you have patients that need this medicine and the government threatens to take their licenses away if they prescribe to them, they are hurting these patients quality of life. I am positive that these same people will still be able to get their medicine if they need it. But now people who need it aren't being allowed to have it. I am one of them and I can't do hardly anything, including, walking, sleeping, sitting or handling my day to day needs because without my medication I am in such constant pain I am practically worthless. Not to ...
