Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I wrote a couple of months ago and never heard from anyone. I thought I would ask again. I am 9 months post-op and for the last 4 months I've had a skin rash (bumpy but not red) on my face, neck and shoulders. Still losing my hair too. I knew about he hairloss but have not heard anything about this skin problem. Anybody know about this and what I can do? I keep wondering if I'm not getting enough of something or I'm taking too much. I've been to two dermatologists and my primary care. They are stumped and just tell me its not related to the surgery. But they don't know squat about the surgery. Would appreciate any advice. Also, does anyone on this post-op board have Regency Blue Cross insurance? My friend is trying to get the surgery but they tell her it is exploratory and they make the decision on a case by case basis. I told her I would ask.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Hi Kim, First of all, congratulations on your spectacular weight loss! Wow. I don't exactly have an answer to the rash question, except to say that I have noticed that my skin is more sensitive since the surgery. I seem to get a mini-hive breakout at least once a day which is very itchy and then goes away as quickly as it arrives. It is annoying, more than anything else. I have considered taking a nondrowsey anti-histamine like Reactine or Allegra, but it hasn't bothered me enough to do this. I have not been able to identify any triggers (like foods or scents) - it seems to come out of no where. Have you changed your laundry soap lately or dryer sheets? What about personal soaps or cleansers? Perhaps you have developed an environmental allergy? You are nine months out and I don't know where you live or what your seasons are like, but was there a change from Winter to Spring, or Spring to Summer? I have found family doctors and most dermatologists pretty much clueless about skin things. Kinda makes you wonder why the pretend to know anything. This is probably an MGB no-no, but my Mother used to take a tsp. of baking soda dissolved in cold water to relieve hives (and indigestion also). I think it has something to do with altering the acidity of your body - but I'm not a doctor and not even a pharmacist - so please check with clos before you do anything.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Kim, I have Regence/blue cross/blue shield. I have an appeal in a few weeks. So far, they are stating that it is the only wls that they dont cover because it is experimental and investigational. They are also saying that I didnt jump through enough hoops. Like doctors care for a year: but I see my doctor every three months and saw a dietitian for more than 6 months, etc. I also had bumps in my hair. But I take Borage oil, fish oil, and flax seed oil. Dont know if this helped or not. I also was extremely itchy. My hands are itching now. No rash or anything, but it was bad. Mostly it seems to be gone now.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 it very well may be an unrelated skin condition. if you have been to specialists and your pcp.... surely you have had bloodwork. if you have not ...demand that someone send you for bloodwork! but if that is all ok, you may just have a skin problem. seek a second dermatological opinion. good luck.... how miserable!! be well cs in va > I wrote a couple of months ago and never heard from anyone.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Have you tried jello puddings or yogurt maybe? I used to be able to do puddings followed with water or milk to help get it down. Lisbeth Philadelphia, PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Hi Penny, Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. It really sucks to get cravings with this condition, as most of the cravings we all get are for things we probably can’t eat anyways! My craving is pizza – I can’t wait! Lisbeths idea of pudding is a great suggestion. Give that a try. Otherwise,you could try those really good (and probably a little $$) frozen (solid) treats such a fudgsicle. This may be a better product as it is not going to be an entire spoonful trying to go down, only what melts in one pass! Thankfully, me and ice cream get along well, if I take it easy! It would difficult to do my job without being able to sample out new products!! (Hence the email address!) Good luck in your quest for tasty sugar, Penny! PS – I am going to give Bianckas dh Edwin a few more trys this weekend, and will be sure to let everyone know asap if I get any news! Have a great weekend everyone!

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Penny, can you get a Chocolate Drink? It's sweet enough to maybey satisfy your craving. I know it will go down - I use them to calm my spasms and heartburn. Or how about yogurt. I seem to be able to get that down without a water chaser. ===== Carol (aka Carol_in_VA and GrnEyesVA) ....If life gives you lemons, make lemonade... but if life gives you limes, make margaritas!!

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 2 recommendations: 1. Dr. ZalZal -- Children's Hospital in DC (he also has satellite offices in Laurel, Rockville, Fairfax). 2. Dr. Schessel -- Washington University Hospital -- DC (he also works out of Children's Hospital/DC one day a week). I would highly recommend both of them. ZalZal performed 2 surgeries on my daughter (age 10 -- first surgery at age 7) but recommended Schessel to us for her reconstruction as ZalZal felt that Schessel was better qualified for the particular procedure she needed. Email me if you would like more details. Candy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Hi, My daughter has had 2 ctoma removal surgeries and 3 sets of tubes. The first two sets of tubes were put in by Dr. Bahadori (see below); the rest of the surgeries were performed by Dr. Zalzal of Children's National Medical Center, D.C. He's the head of otolaryngology at Children's, and although he can be a bit gruff at times, he's definitely knowledgeable and we've been *very* pleased with him. Our regular D.C.-area ENT is Otolaryngology Associates, specifically Dr. Bahadori, who discovered the ctoma in our then-4-year-old daughter in spring 2003. What I liked best about Dr. Bahadori, who has an *excellent* bedside manner, was that he told us up-front that, though he was comfortable with performing the ctoma removal surgery himself, he encouraged us to find a surgeon who was more specialized in ctoma. Other doctors we've had favorable experiences with from Otolaryngology Associates are Dr. McKenzie and Dr. McBride, who are not pediatric specialists like Dr. Bahadori is. I highly recommend this practice group (the whole family goes there now for various reasons, not all of which are ctoma). We saw Drs. McBride and McKenzie before seeing Dr. Zalzal, and all agreed on the course of treatment. Further, Dr. Zalzal was spoken of very highly by Dr. McKenzie. The Children's website is www.cnmc.org, and Otolaryngology Associates is www.otolaryngology-assoc.com/. Best of luck! You're in the right place for help. -Jeff. ___________________________________ QUESTION My question is whether anyone has had a good experience with an otologist in or near the Washington D.C. area. Our 7 year old has had 3 sets of tubes has just been diagnosed with a chol. We are considering going to s-Hopkins for a second opinion to be thorough. What other criterion should we be looking for, other that the doctor having the special training as an Otologist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Hi Evita -- here's my "take" on spasms... this is a post that I have saved and I copy and paste it from time to time for those who haven't seen it before. Some of it won't pertain to your situation, b/c I originally wrote this when people were coming to the group saying they had "heartburn" and antacids didn't help, so I wrote this to both explain that in many cases their chest pains are NOT acid-related, and also to show the various things that can help the pains: Chest pains, heartburn, acid reflux, spasm pains, NCCPs.... what the heck is all of this stuff anyway???? (aka: Debbi's Dissertation on Dysfunctional Dysphagia Diagnoses) Here's some info I've put together on differences between "heartburn" and the "chest pains/spasm pains" that are related to achalasia. The official medical term that I've found for the "spasm pain" is "NCCP" or Non Cardiac Chest Pain. There are multiple terms used for "heartburn" including: acid indigestion, acid reflux, GERD/GORD, etc. In my pre-achalasia days, I would have "indigestion/heartburn" once in a while (after a particularly large, fatty, acidic meal, etc.), maybe once or twice a year. I would have that nasty acid taste in my mouth when I burped, and a hot/burning sensation in the area of my breastbone. While not particularly comfortable, it wasn't an excruciating, debilitating pain, and taking some Tums or other antacid would neutralize it and both the taste and the discomfort would go away. When I had my first NCCP, I had been having problems swallowing for a few years but hadn't yet been diagnosed with anything, and I had no clue that the pain was related to my swallowing problems. I thought the pain was some gawd-awful gas pains -- felt like something was stabbing me from the inside out! The pain seemed to start in the ribs and almost squeeze my chest with searing pain that seemed to shoot up into my neck, too. (note: everyone can experience NCCPs in varying degrees and in various parts of the body, including stomach, chest, shoulders, neck, back, jaw, tongue, teeth, and roof of the mouth.) I lived alone at the time, and I drove to a convenience store and bought three rolls of Rolaids and ate two whole rolls. That didn't have any effect at all, and it took a couple hours for the pain to go away. Another time, I have a distinct memory of standing in the kitchen holding onto the countertop and just WAILING at the top of my lungs because it hurt so bad, and my knees buckling from the pain. My wailing turned into one big repetitious prayer: "Please, Lord, Please, Lord, Make It Stop, Lord, I Can't Take It Anymore, Lord, Please, Lord, I Need You To Please Help Me!" over and over and over again while sobbing. This was almost a decade ago and I don't know how long it went on, but I'm thinking that it was well over an hour of that constant wailing. Boy, those were the days, huh? ;o) For people whose doctors believe that NCCPs are an "atypical" (not normal) symptom for achalasia patients, point them in the direction of this informal poll here on our group: achalasia/surveys?id=1037310 The poll is now closed, so who knows how many more would be added to it if it were still accepting votes. If you scroll down to the end, 38 people reported that they have these "spasms", and 5 people reported that they don't have spasms. So out of 43 people who answered the poll, 88% have spasms and 12% don't have spasms. Doesn't sound like a "rare" or "atypical" symptom, does it? In another poll ( achalasia/surveys?id=1011383 ) of people who went to the Emergency Room due to extreme chest pains, 2 were given intravenous Valium, 3 were given Demorol or other narcotic injection, and 7 were given no treatment whatsoever.... isn't that sad? 58% of the people who were in such severe pain that they went to the E.R. were given NO TREATMENT at all!!! That is SO unnecessary!!!! Here's some info that I copied from an old post of mine -- if your doctor will bother to do some simple web searches, he'll see that calcium channel blockers, nitroglycerine, and anti-depressants are all documented ways to treat NCCP in people with esophageal disorders! Maybe if you print it out and show it to him, he'll be willing to offer you some help in dealing with this. ============================================= Here's some basic info that I've posted in the past -- different things work for different people, so it's basically just an experiment to find what works for your own particular situation. Here are some different coping methods to try: -- Swallowing something warm or something cold (in my case, I chug warm --not hot-- water as fast as I can). -- CCB medication (calcium channel blockers) -- when I'm having NCCPs, I prick the shell of a nifedipine capsule and squirt it under my tongue. It absorbs into the bloodstream under the tongue (this is called a "sub-lingual" medication, meaning under-tongue) and relaxes smooth muscle tissue (which is what the esophagus is made up of). You can also just swallow the capsule, but since we have trouble swallowing in the first place, I've found the under-the-tongue method works best (then you just swallow when you've held it there as long as you can and your saliva requires a swallow). Unfortunately, it can also lower your blood pressure (usually only a problem if you already have low BP to begin with) and cause a headache afterwards -- some people experience this, some don't. CCB's can also be tried in the "slow release" formula as a preventative to having NCCPs start in the first place. -- Nitroglycerin medication -- works in much the same way as the CCB mentioned above, and can also be taken sublingually for fast relief. -- Certain anti-depressant and anti-convulsant medications -- some people don't have NCCPs when on these types of medications, believed to be a function of the medicine's effect on serotonin in the brain (antidepressants such as Nortryptaline, Amitryptaline, Imipramine and Trazodone have been studied; Neurontin is being studied in a similar way for "phantom limb pain" in amputees, etc.) People in the group have had luck with Paxil, Ativan, Nortryptaline, etc. The dosage needed in this case is generally lower than the dosage that is normally used to treat depression. -- L'Argnine supplements -- some people have found these relieve NCCP symptoms. -- If symptoms are debilitating and none of the methods above help, you may need a narcotic pain reliever, but definitely try all the options above first, b/c if you're on narcotics you can't drive, work, etc., and the vast majority of people can find relief in a way that doesn't involve narcotics. ============================================= In the last few years I've taken three different drugs that affect serotonin (one of which isn't considered to be an anti-depressant medication, but which does have a serotonin effect nonetheless); any time I was on one of those drugs, my NCCPs have either disappeared entirely, or been nearly eliminated. And each time I discontinued a serotonin-effect drug, the NCCPs started up again within a month's time. One member here who was in the E.R. repeatedly for debilitating NCCPs finally had a doctor prescribe a low-dose daily antidepressant; her NCCPs have been eliminated.... no more pain, no more narcotics, no more trips to the hospital. There are soooooooooooo many things that can be done to reduce NCCPs, but doctors don't even bother to TRY to find a solution for us. I say let THEM curl up in a fetal position making plea-bargain deals with their Maker at 3:00 in the morning just ONCE, and you can bet your booty that they'll find a solution REAL fast!!! :oP Debbi in Michigan, aka Pepto-Deb Question Can anyone tell me briefly what helps against those spasms of the oesophagus?I live in Belgium, have had achalasia since about 4 years now and I can't cope with these pains anymore. My doctor thinks it's a psychological problem, my GP gives me meds that don't help, I don't know what to do anymore.For the rest : no troubles eating, sleeping, don't have to cough a lot.Had my dilatation 4 years ago.Thanks for the answer!EvitaAntwerp, Belgium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 It's recommeded for use nightly, Trish. Even though it may be dry now in your area, the processor lays next to your head all day and the body eliminates moisture and heat. I live in New Mexico which is the desert. The relative humitity is normally in the range of 10 to 20% but I use the Dry and Store every night as recommended by my audiologist. You might ask your audiologist about this too.

I use my dry and store faithfully every night except when I am traveling then I will use the splash box that the 3G came in. It has saved i believe my 3G from being sent out. I am also a heavy sweater so the dry and store comes in very handy. All three audies that I have had including the one at NYU CI center have recommended the dry and store. It can extend your battery life of your 3G also. From May to Nov I have to change the dry brik monthly because of the humidity and the rest of the time it is every other month.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 If you have the good dry and store, no since in not using it All I've ever had is the silver case that came with the 3G and it's served me nicely; but I don't sweat a lot and the humidity here isn't real bad.. I may just purchase one to see if it does make a difference on the battery life.. I suppose that even though we don't notice the moisture there's really more than meets the eye,and your battery compartment, mic and contacts could potentially become damaged if not properly dried, but, if you do forget to use the global dry n store it's not going to be a matter of life and death. <smiles> Off to my grandsons soccer game.
