Cognitive impairment
Hi all, I joined this site last night after being recommended by a member I met at a Lupus Coffee Morning at Basildon Hospital. I've a feeling it's going to be the best thing I've done in a while. I've only resently been diagnosed with SLE after having one too many cortisone injections and then asking

Moderate cognitive impairment, weight gain, suicidal - at my wits' end with severe adrenal fatigue
I am literally at rock bottom with my adrenal fatigue. I have no social or dating life, I am rapidly gaining weight, my memory is getting worse, I'm starting to stutter and take longer to comprehend basic conversation and information. My cognition has deteriorated significantly over the past two years

Not Sure I Trust My Endocrinologist Any Longer...
There has been no change in my fatigue &
cognitive
impairment
. My latest set of blood tests show no change in any thyroid metrics despite taking the thyroxine for 5 months which all seem to be at the bottom of the 'normal' range, although some of the others seem ok-ish?

Hi everyone, I've been off the radar a bit so I just thought I'd check in and give some updates. About a fortnight ago now things got very bad, I took nearly a whole week off of uni as I just couldn't make myself leave my flat. Every concern in my life seemed to multiply and I began to feel that I

Anyone interested in being a CBT buddy with me?
Dear All I am hoping that this request does not contravene the rules and regulations ..... Like so many of us I feel lonely and isolated due to chronic pain, largely because I feel too ill with the pain and having no motivation to go out and about to actually see people. This is partly due to feeling

Exaggerated claims about treatment effectiveness
A lot of doctors will tell patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and also those with FND that Graded Exercise Therapy (where exercise is gradually increased in small increments, usually guided by a physiotherapist or occupational therapist) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy are effective treatments

Appointment with Dr Toft soon, drafted a letter to send him in advance, any thoughts or advice?
The first term was a massive struggle as I battled with the following symptoms: extreme fatigue,
cognitive
impairment
, brain fog, low blood pressure, low body temperature, freezing hands and feet, weight gain and constipation. These symptoms prompted me to visit my GP.

Advice I have been given for viral meningitis
Dear VM friends, I have posted many times on here and many of you will know I had VM 15 months ago now and I have suffered severe headaches / head pain/ migraines ( they have been called many things by doctors ) during this time. The crushing pain actually dislocated a vertebrae in my neck, collapsing

Hello anxiety? (Or whatever this is)
Google lead me to this site, but the descriptions I'm reading here are the same as mine. It came on quite recently and I'm really struggling with it although I try not to show it as I think some people think I was initially overreacting to the whole thing. It started as a bad headache which lead to a

Self Help
As a Fibro surfer (it sounds so much better than sufferer) I describe my life as being like one of those slot machines that show multiple combinations to win; or more commonly lose. I think that my reels spin about every 10 minutes or so; and my mixture of fog, pain, fatigue, headache, tinnitus and depression

Memory issues
I was eventually diagnosed with, after loads of tests over 6months, with
cognitive
impairment
. So 2years later things seem to be a bit worse and in truth the diagnoses didn't seem right. I was referred back to the memory clinic. This time with a brain scan. The out come.

When Searching for Medical Information Becomes An Unhealthy Obsession
I wonder whether any of us actually went to a doctor and asked if they had leukaemia, after some on-line research of what could be causing some troubling symptoms?
Having a diagnosis of CLL, which can profoundly impact our health in so many different ways, is definitely not a "healthy" starting
