Hi, Apologies for the long post that follows, but I really need advice and support at the moment...
Hi, I have MS, I was dx when I was 28 - now 37. It is a definite diagnosis. I had what I thought was a killer MS relapse 2 and a half years ago, and have been in a wheelchair ever since. I had a CT scan, told no, not a stroke and home I went packed full IV of steroids. Then, last October - I'm now 37

How to cope with health anxiety?
Before that I was feeling dizzy and light headed and I thought there was something wrong with my heart as I seem to think at any moment I could have a
cardiac
arrest
or my heart could just stop for no reason, I also check my heart rate to make sure it's beating normal but I wouldn't even know if it was

I had my oesophagectomy in June 2011. 2 days after my op I had a cardiac arrest and was kept in an enforced coma for 3 weeks.
She said I was an unknown quantity as she had never known anyone have a
cardiac
arrest
after the op. Originally, I was told I should be ok after 12 months and as it is past that marker it is starting to get me down. Has anyone else experienced the same or know of someone who has? Thanks Sue

5 months since diagnosis of Viral Meningitis and still suffering.
I am a mother of three young children (ages 5, 3 and 1) and can not figure out how to get over this illness. I never spent time in the hospital as I was already feeling a little better once I finally got diagnosed two weeks into my symptoms. I caught a random cold last week and although I am on antibiotics

Wk 1 R3 'Run Forest run!'
I also do not want my palpitations to turn into a full blown
cardiac
arrest
! I think I will have to repeat WK1 properly before moving to WK2. No point in cheating eh? I also stretched properly afterwards and had a nice warm bath so hopefully I won't hurt anywhere! Ha, me! Three times!

RIP Our Son, Owen Aged 8
Our son Owen, 8, died on the 24th May in hospital after suffering a
cardiac
arrest
following an admission with his asthma. Although he had been diagnosed as brittle, he was an active and fun loving little boy who tried to not let his asthma get him down.

Where to Start?
Jamie had spiked a temp of over 42 degrees and was about 10 minutes away from
cardiac
arrest
, after placing a DNR (do not resuscitate) On Jamie we knew that, that would mean he would die However a brilliant specialist decided to try morphine which within about 5 minutes his heart rate had stabilised

back after a good rest..
Hi everyone, had a lovely week with my son, I even won the first game of bowling!......... You would wonder how, my secret was to let everyone take my turn to bowl and perhaps because nobody was trying too hard won me the game : ) I did enjoy the evening just as much because the kids were so funny

How will strategy by UK Government on chronic conditions affect those with CFS/ fibromyalgia problems?
covers all the body the way NHS structured & funded re diagnosis means terrible delays & dare I say it [well former GP said] " rationing'"That was before my
cardiac
arrest
? Apparently they are saying you can have your say . Have they contacted the Forums?

Breathing effecting mobility, exertion & stamina ?
I know I have angina & my
cardiac
arrest
was oxygen getting to main trigger points Could the breathing problem be connected to blood as am also having acute pain / paralysis connected to kidney.Am told there is now a neuro connection to CFS / fibromyalgia could a low thyroid be interconnected?

Could there be a link with CFS/ fibromyalgia's trigger point & the cardiac [oxygen getting to the main organs ] due to weak pumping action?
Yet when had ischemic signalling found on brain scan before
cardiac
arrest
I was never referred to a cardiologist. I had had acute stroke symptons ignored by A&E . Now I am seizing up with pain & stiffness lasting only 12 hrs or until up chronic uti medication .

Could Raynauds be attributed to allergy or a side effect of a medication ?
Had a
cardiac
arrest
6 yrs ago . Then one day reading the leaflet for simvastatin to find it could be a side effect so stopped taking & problem resolved. Check Mediguard site if you take a lot of medications.

Amitriptyline and arrythmia
I had no idea that amitriptyline can interfere and cause problems with arrythmia in the heart..I recently had a
cardiac
arrest
where my heart stopped but luckily enough for me I had someone in the same store I was shopping in who was able to perform CPR until the paramedics arrived...I was given two
