Guest guest Posted April 10, 2000 Report Share Posted April 10, 2000 " A. " wrote: Has anyone had a diagnosis always pertaining to depression. Wouldn't you be alittle down if you felt like s--- all the time? Dear Kim, I could probably write a book about this one. Yes, I've had quite a few doctors (mostly neurologists) suggest to me that I was depressed, when they couldn't find anything physically wrong with me. Sometimes I think it's just their way of justifying not being able to find out what's wrong with you. " It's not that I'm a bozo, it's because she's depressed and imagining these symptoms. " Don't worry, Kim, it seems to be the norm for people with Chiari. Consider it your " initiation " into the wonderful world of ACM.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2000 Report Share Posted November 17, 2000 A kiss and a hug for Caren. Remember we are here for you Peach Girl. Jeff W. MRI Results Well folks, since I am not allowed to curse, I will just say that the results stink ) I can't remember exact details, so be patient until Monday when I find out more, I kind of as dazed a confused when I heard the news..... I need surgery, soon. Not one surgery, but 2! I have two tumor (I forgot names and exact locations, will ask again Monday) One is on right side of brain, other is on left side of brain, NO they are not ANs. (although my ANs are growing back, they are still small) The tumor on the right is in frontal lobe and is bigger so will come out first, other one will come out 4-6 weeks later. (I don't have dates yet,, will set that up Monday) I will also be going to a lung Dr. because my breathing is very shallow and we have o make sure they are okay before surgery. I am also taking Epitol, an anti-seizure med. more for precautions than anything. Unfortunately, I will be staying in NY for these surgeries and away from my love, Pat Dillon. It sucks, but I have a really great surgeon here and trust him with my life. I will let you know details Monday, sorry I don't have them now, was hard to accept news and anger and fear just erased my memory ) Hugs and smooches Caren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2000 Report Share Posted November 17, 2000 Ah Caren!!! Seems the board is full of all kinds of tests for people these days. My heart goes out to you. At one time, the doctor told me I was breathing too shallow...he said many woman tend to do this for what reason, I forgot. Try to be aware of how deeply you breath was all they told me. I am sending an angel to watch over you.....

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2000 Report Share Posted November 17, 2000 Oh Caren, What terrible news ( I do hope that you can find something positive to focus on throughout this ordeal. Just keep in mind that you are in the thoughts of all who read about what's happening with you. And we may not always let you know, but we ARE thinking of you and all of the other members of the Crew who are going through rough times.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2000 Report Share Posted November 17, 2000 Wow Caren, you sure have a full plate. You are always so optimistic and up, I know this is putting you to the test! And I'm sure it is really difficult to get thru this being so far away from Pat; when I went into surgery in May, I was newly deaf, and there was no one with me, and I was 2000 miles from home--so at least be glad your family will be there. And we will all be there in spirit!

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2000 Report Share Posted November 17, 2000 Caren, Those results DO stink! All I can say is please know you have my prayers and positive energy in your direction and your surgeon's. Sometimes the struggles get heavy. But I am pulling for you. Keep positive, laugh as much as you can (see movies, read what makes you chuckle) and see yourself better constantly. It will happen. We all have faith.
