I am new to HW and have some questions that I was hoping someone could help me with. I have been diagnosed with the following:
Sarcoidosis, Heart Palpatations, Renal Insufficiency, Adrenal Insufficiency,GERD, IBS, Hashimoto Thyroiditis, Hypolycemia, dizzyness, depression, decrease in oxygen saturation and inflammation in joints and muscles.
I take the following meds: Effexor, Diltiazem, Flonase, ASA, Hydrochlothiazide, Cortef, Tramadol, Prevacid, Levoxel, Tricor, Lodine and Oxygen 2.5 ltrs at night
In August I started having this pain on the top right part of my head. It is tender to the touch and when I bend down or if I do ANYTHING strenous I am in so much pain that it makes me sick to my stomach. In September it got to the point where I passed out in the dr office and ended up in the hospital for 4 days. I had an MRI, Lumbar Puncture, CAT scan and numerous blood tests. The neurologist at the hospital was a pompas ***. They found that I have 3 herniated discs in my neck and 2 bone spurs. They also found that I have narrowing of the right cerebral artery. I went thru more tests and 2 months of therapy and nothing helped. I finally went to another Neurologist who dx me with "ice pick migraines" and gave me Gabapentin 300mg a day. The pain is not as frequent but still there. The bad thing is I am so tired all the time that I sleep for 10-12 hrs a night and I doze all day. Should I call the dr to let him know this or is this something else I just have to put up with.
I would appreciate any and all help any of you can give me!
Thank you
Christy
