Guest guest Posted February 24, 2001 Report Share Posted February 24, 2001 Hi , I must have missed something. Are you having surgery for scoliosis or revision surgery? Is it being done by a Toronto doctor and if so are they using Harrington Rods or a newer type of surgery? Please reply.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Hi Taryn, I am just down the drag in Cape Town and know how Wade feels. The Van Stadens Bridge (when I lived in PE) seemed a good option at times. At one stage there was only one rheumy in the Knysna area. I do not know if he still practices, he lives in Sedgefield and operates from .Hisname is Orlando Meyers. Voltaren is okay, I suggest you get a Uric Acid done to see if he has gout as PA often gives a raised Uric Acid. As regards to falling pregnant, if Wade is on Methotrexate you will possibly have a problem. It acts as a spermacide. As regards to pain meds, a suggestion is Doxyfene, Lentogesic or Synap Forte --- all on script so contact your GP. Regards Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a bit of a technophobe, but has said that he would really like to chat to every-one and ask questions, so I'm going to show him how, and then he can talk to you too! Hi again Taryn, Sorry it has taken so long for me to get back to you. I am always days behind with reading and/or answering the mail. That's great that Wade is going to swallow his fear and join in. lol I think he will find it beneficial to be in touch with people who can identify with what he is going through. With regard to the appointment with the specialist, get Wade to think about what he wants to say about how this disease is affecting him, maybe even write it down, you know, what joints are affected? When it is at its worst? Does it affect his sleep? If you are hoping to have children Methotrexate(MTX) is out. I don't know about the other meds though but if he discusses that with the specialist he will take that into account when he is considering meds. I am currently on Indocid R, MTX, Folic Acid and Enbrel. I was on Myocrisen(Gold) for about 10 years and it worked well for 9.5 of those so maybe he could ask about that. I hope he manages to get some help soon and we will look forward to hearing from him too. Good luck to you both for next week, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I just wanted to take the time out to thank all of you. I finally don't feel like I'm going crazy when I'm here. I'm going to get blood work done, I'll keep you guys posted. I hope everything turns out better for you all as well, I can't imagine what you guys are going through this has been 3 years for me and I'm at my breaking point I can't imagine dealing with this for longer than that. Also you all have given me many ideas of other things it may be. One of the post was about animal bites and scratches. That shocked me. I never would have thought about that but I've been bitten and scratched hundreds of times litterally.lol You guys have just inspired me not to give up, and I was SO close. Ok now that I'm teary-eyed here going to make an appoint and get blood taken. Thank-you thank-you again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 It's very good to get the blood tests done! My aunt got scratched from her pet cat several years back and got very ill. She had symptoms of Lyme and Lupus, but after several tests it was an infection she got from the cat! --- acon18 <acon18@...> wrote: > I just wanted to take the time out to thank all of > you.
