This is what I experienced on Zoloft. I was only on a low dose (25 mg) for about 8 months. I am very sensitive to drugs and side affects/withdrawals, etc, so 25 mg was plenty high for me to work. I...
Just another note.... I just had a blood test and as far as inflammation, it isn't showing anything....

Quincy, I am not under any stress and haven't changed my diet. I have been taking Rowasa nightly for about a month or so. I was sporatic for awhile and it obviously wasn't helping. Thanks for your...

There is something called Benign fasciculation syndrome. It is when you have muscle twitches for no apparent reason. There is a really good website out there about that with a lot of info and support...
When he first had the dizziness in 2003, he had all sorts of blood tests, but I do not think he had a Lyme's test which I've heard a lot of people talk about. So, that is something we will suggest to...
Kimber Thanks for responding. One thing I think we have going for us is that my husband has always worked for the same company, but we have never used their insurance since they have to pay premiums...

Thanks Gracie's mom for your response. I do have a copy of the radiologist report and it did mention where the lesions were but didn't mention any reason for them. They knew he was having dizziness,...
Has anyone ever heard of "nonspecific white lesions." If his MRI was normal, would they have said "normal." I guess I've read that they can sometimes distinguish betwee deymylating lesions and other...
