Fighting TB Meningitis
Hi—the doctors diagnosed my father with TB meningitis about three weeks ago. They started him on anti-TB meds four days prior to the actual diagnosis. Almost two months ago, my father experienced low blood pressure, tremors, night sweats, fatigue, and a low grade fever. Initially, the doctors assumed

Botox for salivary glands
Has anyone had botox injected into the salivary glands to assist with reducing excessive saliva? My husband is having a difficult time with excessive saliva and almost seems to be drowning at times. We are also planning on seeing a movement disorder clinic about the possibility of DBS, and had heard

Shingles, fibromyalgia and Hashimoto's
My wife is a long term Hashimoto's sufferer and has been on T4 only for 46 years and more. Accompanying this has been fibromyalgia almost from the outset which comes and goes at intervals. Recently she developed shingles, which was not only painful in itself, but gingered up her fibromyalgia very badly

Brain implants or standard DBS
Brain implants because brains move slightly during physical activity and as we breathe and our heart beats, rigid implants rub and damage tissue overcome these problems using a fine, flexible mesh. In 2012 the team showed that cells could be grown around such a mesh, but that left the problem of how

Have you considered DBS? It is recommended for people with midstage PD who for whom meds are no longer working well!
Don't wait too long to get DBS--' if you're Parkinson's gets too severe it won't work as well . Also you might not get accepted into a program - if Sinemet stops working entirely you won't be able to find a program that will take you! There are surgeons around that can do DBS on you when you are asleep

Have you been offered this vaccine? If you have had the vaccine how did you react to it if any?

Do you feel you’ve been misdiagnosed? Or have unexplainable symptoms? It could be Lyme disease!

Post viral meningitis headaches
This is just a quick question really, how long after you had viral meningitis did the headaches disappear? I've been out of hospital just over a week but it has been three weeks since the symptoms first appeared (I stupidly didn't go to the doctors for 4 days thinking it was just a migraine) and I am

Pleural rub
Hi. I had a Pleurodesis using Talc when I was 16, I am now 37 and have been having these symptoms, which I can only describe as Pleural Rub, on and off for about 10 years. I was just wondering if anyone else, who has had a similar operation, are experiencing the same thing? Thanks,

Brain tumor
Hi I've been on this site in the past when my dad suffered a Tbi in early October. I didn't write much but I did find it very useful and motivating with the replies I received. My dad's story has been remarkable. He is now at home continuing his rehab. It's all just a case of getting his strength up
