Hi everyone. Just wanted to update you on how I've been doing since my accident. My concussion is getting better. It's a lot better than it was. My neck is still really bad. I'm gonna have to go back...
They do not know about the accident. Maybe I'll try calling them and letting them know....
The er did a Catscan right after the accident. All they saw was some disc bulging which was probably already there. I'm in the process of switching primary doctors. I go to see the new one at the end...
I don't have a pm dr....
I'm about 3 weeks out from accident and I'm not really feeling any better. Head is still messed up from the concussion and my neck/shoulders are still really tight and killing me. I've been taking...
I talked to my neurologist this morning and they are treating my current migraine issues and gave me some advice for the concussion. They are changing my current migraine meds and putting me on...
I just talked to my neurologist. They will see me for the headaches and wants me to follow up with primary for the concussion...
I do have private health insurance. But since it was a car accident I don't think they will let me file it under with them. Not sure which it's going under....
Basically car insurance...
I feel like crap. My head hurts. I feel pressure in my forehead going into my eyes. I'm more light sensitive than normal. My balance is kinda off and lightheaded. I can't keep my head upright for to...
Thanks everyone. I'm hanging in there. My head is killing me and doesn't like being upright for long. Also neck and shoulders are very tight and sore. I am taking the baclofen which seems to help...
Yeah. I've taken the flexeril before, it knocks me out. I think I'm gonna try the baclofen first, if that doesn't work then maybe try the flexeril. I am expecting a huge bruise on my forehead where I...
They prescribed me flexeril for a muscle relaxer and I also have some baclofen left...
Unfortunately I got into a car accident yesterday. It wasn't with another car though. I managed to hydroplane dead on into a pole. I'm ok though. I smacked my head on the steering wheel. Have 2 small...
Hi and welcome. I definitely agree with seeing about getting an upright mri. You never know what the change in position will show, especially since standing is when you get the most pain....
My pelvic pain has improved significantly since having the endometriosis removed, plus removing the paragard and starting depo provera. But of course now I managed to fracture a bone in my hand a...
Yeah, luckily I didn't have to get up for anything this morning. I didn't know the time changed until after I woke up and looked at my phone. Then I changed my clock....
It's good to hear from you again. Thanks for the update. I'm glad they found a cause for the pain. That is definitely a good amount of decrease in pain and the body is healing from surgery. I would...
Good luck!...
I had tried a bcp a few months ago and it messed with my depression horribly bad. I was depo provera several years and they only side effect I remember with that one is weight gain but after having...
so I had my postop appt the other day. The surgeon showed me some pictures from the surgery. Apparently besides the endometriosis he also found adhesions further up at my intestines. They are at the...
They were hoping to get the appt within the next day or two. So hopefully next week so I should have an appt....
I can't take NSAIDs. I had gastric bypass. The arthritis is also in my ankle. It hurts to walk. My drs office is making me an spot with a rheumatologist....
so now apparently I have arthritis in both of my hands/wrists. I'm having a hard time doing anything cause they hurt so bad. I swear I'm finally feeling better and something else starts. This stinks....
hey. Has anyone heard from Dixie?...
As long as my surgeon agrees to do it I plan on doing the total hysterectomy and I'm pretty sure he's going to be fine with it. I don't want to keep dealing with something when there's a way around...
Good luck! Sending positive thoughts!...
We didn't really discuss much today he just checked the incisions quick and looked at the ultrasound report and said the pain is probably from healing cause the cyst is so small. He gave me a script...
My post op is next week but I'm actually at his office now to see him. I think we are going to discuss total hysterectomy....
One week after surgery to remove the endometriosis there is already another small cyst on my right ovary and it's painful. I'm not happy! 😒...
It was laparoscopic surgery to diagnose and remove the endometriosis and to look at/in my uterus. The surgeon was just in. He said it will grow back since my ovaries are still in. We are going to...
I know the endometriosis is gone, but what are the chances it will grow back? Just trying to figure out the next step. Any suggestions?...
No. He didn't take the ovaries. I have a feeling that may happen in the near future though....
So I had my surgery today. They found a lot of endometriosis. Both my ovaries were covered and it was also behind my pelvis. They were able to remove it all though....
Yeah I'm not to thrilled about the idea of going on it....
We discussed it briefly. The surgeon I believe is willing to remove everything if needed. He doesn't seem to think I would do well on Lupron....
I'm pretty sure he said he was going to exise it if found. I just started the Percocet but it seems to be working better the than norco was....
My surgery is Monday. I'm hanging in there. Been in a lot of pain . My surgeon just changed my meds to Percocet 7.5/325 and that's what I'll be on after surgery. I'll let you all know how it turns...
I take 900mg 3x a day. I have no side effects and it works wonderfully for me. I was on lyrica before and it worked but I had horrible side effects with that one....
I ended up in the er last week and again last night. Apparently I have a cyst on my right ovary. They think it may be leaking and that may be why it's causing so much pain. They did an ultrasound...
Thank you. My sister is very opinionated. She always thinks she is right and knows everything. She has no idea how I'm feeling. I know she's having a hard time as well but she has to understand I...
The IOP program is an intensive outpatient program. Basically you go 3 days a week for about 4 hours and it's only for a few weeks. While in the program they handle all your psychiatric care. Lots of...
im so close to losing it lately. This is my first Christmas without my parents and it's thrown my depression and anxiety completely out of whack. I've been so close to a breakdown. My family has...
I only talked to one of my brothers and my sister about me not going to Christmas Eve. My brother understands. My sister apparently doesn't and tried to quilt trip me, trying to say my parents would...
I am kind of skipping Christmas this year. Normally I celebrate on Christmas Eve with my family. I'm not going this year. After losing my parents this spring/summer the holidays is causing my...
I do have siblings, but we don't really talk. I live with one of my brothers, he's only a couple years older than me. My other brother and sister are almost 20 years older than me. They kinda have...
Thank you. I'm trying to hang in but it's getting harder and harder....
i just don't know how much more I can take right now. I feel like I'm close to mentally breaking down. The only thing preventing that currently is my husband. I just keep going from one medical...
I was on the butrans patch for awhile with norco for breakthrough pain. It worked for awhile, but lost its effectiveness....
Hard to say. Could be sinus infection caused by allergies but you could also be suffering from migraines. I have an issue with both and sometimes it can be very difficult to tell which is the problem....
