Guest guest Posted November 9, 2002 Report Share Posted November 9, 2002 I was just glancing thru the last few mesage posts. Seems like a nice group of people here. My wife (45) has been diagnosed with MSA/Shy-Drager. She has been taking Norpace for PVC's for 8 years now. She started taking ProAmatine for orthostatic hypotension 4 months ago.. Thats when the Cardiologist sent her to a different Neruologist. Dr's seem to be scared to talk about where she is at in the progression of this disease. We both know how serious it is. But pointed questions are him-hawed... Can anyone tell me what the advanced stages are like? I know she has been having problems for 8 years that seem to be related to MSA. Current symptoms are low blood pressure, irregular heart rate, light headedness, blurred vision/night blindness, speach slurring/wrong words spoken, slight tremor in the right hand, sleep apnia, problems swallowing, bladder urgency, constipation, hypokalemia and hypocalcemia. She is taking massive doses of Potassium and Calcium. Peace and Love.. T. Cochran II Canon City, Co. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
