Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Sher I want to do the same thing and want to drop all doctors, until I realize: I would have virtually no stomach or esophagus left. My arms and legs would be making me miserable every hour of the day. My low thyroid would be impacting me greatly and making me less able to function. I would be getting no sleep. I would be throwing up after each meal. So I think I'll stick with my medication......lol >> I started on Pravastatin about 3 months ago...my cholesterol is about the same as yours...> Sometimes I just want to dump ALL medications down the toilet and be FREE. > I'll bet you feel the same way...but I need to be grateful for modern meds I guess.> I sure hope you are doing 'better' today.> > > MamaSher, age 70.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Sher Oh, I know....thats why we have to become knowledgeable and also pay attention and get blood tests. There is no medication, no vitamin, no supplement, no food.....nothing that doesn't have some risk of side effects. We have to learn what's likely and how to monitor for it and to watch signs of our bodies. Everyone reacts differently too. I have had some wild reactions to some meds. Requip (took for neuropathy and restless limbs but it was initially a Parkinson's drug) made me look and act like I had Parkinson's. I've tried over thirty different psychiatric meds before they concluded I'm med resistant in that area so could not be treated by medications. Anti-anxiety meds would either put me to sleep (for like 23 hours) or would make me ten times as anxious. One med for sleep made my vision as blurry as if not wearing glasses. Some were like being on speed. One made me sweat profusely like I was outdoors in 100 degree weather and feel like I was out in it too. But it's the hidden side effects that are more the problem. For those of us on many meds, monitoring them with blood tests is crucial. How can you know if your dosage of a thyroid med is right without seeing how you are? Even a simple med I had recently added, Vitamin D. After three months at 50,000 i.u. a week I went back and now well in range. So, now trying one per month and see where that puts me. The statins, like Lipitor, are being found to have tremendous benefit regardless of cholesterol in many tests being conducted. On the other hand they all have side effects too. That is putting doctors in a quandry at the moment because there is much consideration to prescribing them for all patients at a certain age by some medical professionals. Now, if someone can just come up with a statin with fewer side effects. > > > > I started on Pravastatin about 3 months ago...my cholesterol is about the same as yours... > > Sometimes I just want to dump ALL medications down the toilet and be FREE. > > I'll bet you feel the same way...but I need to be grateful for modern meds I guess. > > I sure hope you are doing 'better' today. > > > > > > MamaSher, age 70.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Peggy Well, I think the same way but use it to my benefit. By realizing that any year could be my last I don't put anything I really want to do off. I make sure I pack as much in as possible and I live it like my last. There is no limit as to how many times I can repeat that. As to Amber not getting to come, you're right in not letting her but also thinking ahead to spring break. That can be her special time and trip and even better. Gives you another time to look forward to. I probably find germ/disease/virus/infection avoidance more of an aggravation with this disease than anything simply because its so contrary to the way I always lived. However, I do recognize its importance and I do avoid at any cost. Not saying I still can't pick something up but not exposing myself anytime I don't have to. I'm glad to see you doing the wise thing. > > Joyce, I by no means mean to upset anyone but it is just a rotten > fact we have to live with. > My stamina just stinks. the breathing has become a chore if I do > anything.

Ever since I was a little girl growing up in a neighborhood that was pretty evenly split between Catholic and Jewish I loved the times Hannukah and Christmas fell during the same week. I loved walking around the neighborhood looking at the Christmas lights on some houses and the menorah's in the windows of others. I just wanted to take time this morning to wish everyone here who is celebrating this week the happiest, most joyful and peaceful holidays possible. It's a busy week for most of us so posting is likely to be light but we're still here and if anyone needs something we'll be at your service! We've lots to be thankful for. We've got several transplat survivors in the group now and you all inspire the rest of us. God bless all of you and all of us as we continue to battle this disease. Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to those of us celebrating and a good week to everyone else!
