I saw a Cardiologist this week. Seems I may have a complication due to another complication of PSP. I'd appreciate feedback.
For those who've been following my posts, some of this is old info; for the benefit of newer caretakers/persons with PSP, I'm going to briefly refer to the complication of PSP I was diagnosed with May of 2013. My Doc (a Neuro) surprised me with a referral for a sleep study. Sleep apnea was the furthest

Is St Johns wort ok to take with NDT? Feeling quite depressed :(
Feeling somewhat down right now - I think it's just a combo of the Thyroid symptoms (esp the weight gain and hair loss, and obviously the fatigue) and also sick to death of my aching ribs, still not sorted despite numerous doctors visits. Some days I wonder what on earth I'm getting up for - and struggle

Upset
I went out for two hours this afternoon, to a local carnival parade, in my new wheelchair. This is the second proper trip out and I have never felt so embarrassed in my life. People were constantly staring at me in the wheelchair and because I have to use a CPAP breathing machine also. I now don't want

Progress and help request
Hi everyone. I have been doing the programme for nearly 4 weeks now. I have lost 1.5 inches from waist and 3kg in weight. I have serious medical problems and can only exercise whilst using a CPAP breathing machine, or my airways will collapse. Can anyone give any advice on exercise ? I can't stand for

Can a TBM patient suddenly become extremely drowsy to the point of requiring mechanical ventilation?
My father, 71 years was admitted to the hospital on 6th June following extreme drowsiness to the point where he was unable to swallow water. On a blood test, it was found that his Sodium had dropped to 112 despite being on Tolvaptan daily, fluid restriction and oral salt intake (5 gm). He was also found

Feeling upset and confused
Today I went to the ENT specialist who has said he is almost certain I have sleep apnoea. I shall spend tonight wired up to machines to confirm then it's off to Oxford for a CPap machine. This has left me in a bit of a quandary because this doc says the symptoms that have been put down to APS could be

The second thing the neurologist told me after the bad news, he advised me not to go to the internet to read about Parkinson's. I read about Parkinson's and also try different diet supplements e.g. Coconut oil, MCT oil, modified keto diet. I participate on this forum in my search to have the greatest

Does anyone else get allergic reactions from vitamin supplements?
I've had PMR for four years and am down to 4mg of Medrol with the odd flare now and then. I am getting rather fed up because I would like to take a multivitamin supplement but every one I've tried so far has given me an allergic reaction, a sensation of pins and needles and a hot tingling sensation.

Well, the results came back that I have moderate sleep apnea. So no medication until I start using a CPAP. So I

Pelvic Fracture/Post Surgery- 3years later with possible reconstructive surgery in the furture
Hi almost 3 years ago oct 13, 2011 I was in a terrible horse riding accident where my pelvis was split in two and my bladder was torn. I was rushed to one hospital who deemed they did not have the personal to fix me so I was packed up and sent to another bigger hospital in the city. 5 hours later

Partial Update
So I did that last sleep study with the PES (long story short, they put a tube up your nose, down your throat, and into your chest and inflate a balloon at the end of it to measure air pressure) and it didn't show UARS (upper airway restriction syndrome), but it did show obstructed sleep apnea. So I

Anyone ever used St. John's Wort?
Hi everyone, so my therapist recommended St. John's Wort to me for mild anxiety. I was just wondering if anyone has used this? I have read mainly positive reviews and am really excited about this, but I am still very nervous about taking it. I bought a bottle from GNC (it seemed to be a good, trusted

Update
I saw the university specialist on friday. She wants to give me oxycontin. But first, she wants me to do another sleep study with esophageal pressure monitoring (*cringe*) to make sure I don't have sleep apnea. If I don't, medicine prescribed, no problem. If I do, she wants to put me on a cpap and then

St Johns Wort..
After visiting to the drs about my PMS and not really getting anywhere, I decided to take things into my own hands and do some research. I've read some very good, and very negative things about St John's Wort and wondered if any of you could provide some real life experiences with this supplement? xx
