Getting sicker?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I am getting a bit worried, as I had to call the ER last night as all of a

sudden my neck and face are swollen - I look weird and puffy around my chin,

cheeks and collar bone. When talking with the on call Neur. she was

flabbergasted I was on 100 mg of the pred. and was completely silent after

asking in a weird tone - are you sure you are reading the label right on how

much to take?

I had blood labs done - the 11 that test for kidney, liver, blood sugar all that

and they said it came back fine. I also had a strep. test as my throat it sore.

I am scared because it seems every couple of days new stuff is happening and my

doctor is just like...oh that is normal. I appreciate the advice from all of

you and am looking into a specialist and thanks to Jackie for giving me some

names of people not too far away....it will just take time to get a referral and

time to get to them. I am nervous that the Pred. and the huge amounts of D3 are

wrong for me? It seems like this disease has not much things set about how to

treat it and everyone has different opinions about it. Remembering that the DR

said my D and B levels were almost non existent is why I am on such a high dose

of D3 (50,000) units every other day for 10 days, then once a week. Any way I

have a sort of emergency appt with the Neur. tomorrow due to the swelling in my

face and neck. Hope I get more answers and not more questions...and start to

not have things go wrong with my body.
