Dreamgirl, Thank you for your reply. Yes, the hair loss is also a big concern of mine. I just had a bad bout of hair loss from another medication and just got through that! However, the other stuff...
Hi all, I have two heart murmurs and one small leak (these two issues harmless, and have probably has them my whole life); in addition, considerable high blood pressure which is recent (but has...

Rae, Again, nobody is "totally" open; I see those only in the realm of medical and "more common." Whether folks choose to admit this fact or not ... not one person does not feel the reluctance of...

Redjeep, One more thing, the information in this link has proven helpful to multitudes of individuals and their families: http://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=9&m=452747 I composed...
Hi Redjeep, So sorry it's taken so long for my reply! Glad to hear you are on the meds ... it does take awhile for them to kick in. Hopefully, you'll feel better emotionally soon. As for the strep,...
Hi Shar, What did the MS clinic say? If you didn't get an answer, I suggest you ask again and also phone your neuro. This does not sound like something that should continue, you should get this...
Hi Cathy, I have nausea more often from time to time; however, I've noticed that it's worse given whatever prescription meds I take and whether or not I've eaten. Perhaps a little may be attributed...
Rae, Everybody does from time-to-time. It's important to be open about it, but only with trustworthy people. In short, we can't be open with everyone, that's not healthy either; don't trust...
kiwigirl, Could it be shame issues? You opened up to him, now he knows all. Remember that he loves and accepts you as you are and continue treating your depression while allowing him to love you...
Dear krocks, I hope you and your husband have sought couples counseling, and also on the part of each of you, individually (you and your husband). It sounds like you do want to save your marriage;...
Dear RJ, Do you have a primary care physician? Sounds strange that nobody will help you out by phoning in a simple script for an anti-depressant medication. I do understand that you have other...
Dear RJ, I'm so sorry to hear you are hurting so, and even lacking the support that you do, in fact, need desperately. If I were in your shoes, my first course of action would be to phone my primary...
Hi Judy, Welcome to the MS board, sorry about both of your dx's, but glad you are here where you will receive caring and support. I'm not familiar with Celiac Disease but perhaps someone else may be....
Hi Wendy, Welcome! Yes, I agree, what uppitycats said. LOL This could be one of many different things. Best to go get checked out, and keep going until some answers are found. Best of luck to you!...
Hi Justin! Sorry to hear Lysha is not feeling well. Hopefully she'll get the answer and the solution; looking forward to seeing what the Rheumy says, if you wouldn't mind posting an update. As for...
Wow, uppity, thanks! I too have this problem with cold. I had no idea there was an association to Reynaud's Syndrome. I'm also wondering if mine is caused by my thyroid troubles though, I'm freezing!...
I have this problem from time-to-time. I have trouble when I'm very upset. Other than those times, I haven't noticed it. I think mine's more emotional, perhaps a little "enhanced" by the MS, but...
to move back to the top; given the fact that I just posted "considerably" and moved it down. : )...
WOW!!! Michelle ROCKS again!! I have swallowing troubles, mine seem to be "emotionally based." I never attributed it to MS, interesting. Strange maybe, but when I'm upset, my throat refuses to...
Hari??? Did you get out today?? I hope you got out and about and changed your scenery, even it you only took a walk! It's a start. Hope to hear from you soon! ~ Cindy...
Hari, Please elaborate, then I can try to help. I have company coming over, so I can't stay online; however, I will log on and check this thread after my company departs tonight. Take care! Try to...
Sorry Hari, couldn't see you! LOL I'm not the brightest light on the strand lately, the name says it all!! The spelling of your name threw me, my humble apology. Feeling better about things???...
sdguy, I suggest you look at Cymbalta as a possible med for you. Like you, Lithium was once suggested to me (an obvious misdiagnosis); and I have been through countless anti-depressant medications...
Also, don't allow your lack of coverage to stand in the way! Call the suicide hotline ... they WILL find you the help you need and a place to go! Although you claim that you never got anything out of...
I suggest you turn OFF the computer, go out and get some air, socialize with your friends; also relax and spend time with these family members ... and on a relaxed basis (don't talk about business)....
I suggest you go check yourself into your local ER and report this immediately! I am speaking from experience here. One more stressor could be the one, that "last straw" that "breaks the camel's...
jjjj, I hope you will reconsider applying for help through your State. If you need the help, whether it be Medicaid, food stamps, etc., then accept the help! As for these people that are hassling you...
puzzlemom, I was on Zoloft several years ago; it worked well for my depression by I completely lost my libido. (And that bothered me because I was still very young, happily married, and beautiful to...
Jenifer, It doesn't matter "how much" you eat; it's about "what" you eat. Hope this helps. Yes, my appetite increased. I was on other meds though, so I don't know which was the culprit....
I was taking 10 MG. of Lexapro and didn't notice any weight gain. Wouldn't feel right to cast my vote though, as I also took on a healthy eating regimen at nearly the same time, so it could have been...
