I'm really getting sick of these doctors who just pat you on the back and tell you nothing is wrong. There *is* something wrong with me
( Read more... )
Perhaps your doctor is chalking it up to something sleep related since it happens while you are trying to sleep. I'm trying to think of what they call it... maybe night tremors. But I would hope he would take it seriously enough to thoroughly check into it. It is dangerous for a doctor to assume anything about a patient's health. I hope your gynocologist is able to help you and that everything turns out to be okay. Keep us posted, hun. *hugs*
Thanks girls. Good to hear from you especially Leslie - how are you doing with everything? I guess I should go to your journal for that huh? *hug*
My gynocologist of course doesn't know anything about my kind of symptoms because they obviously aren't "female" related. She gave me some names of doctors she think would be good for me to check with but I haven't been able to get up with them yet, will keep trying. I haven't had a bad spell again, but 24/7 I have a weak feeling in my left arm and over my heart. I'm just taking it day by day.
Now I don't know if it's just because I've been eating a little less lately, or if it's because I've reduced my medication (which I've read can keep people from losing weight), but in one week I've lost 7 pounds. My body does not like to let me lose weight - the last time I lost seven pounds it took me at least three months. Weird how I lost that much so fast...
I'm sorry things haven't been figured out yet. Are you still unable to see any of the doctors she suggested? And the symptoms have worsened? I don't remember you saying anything about the 24/7 pain in your left arm before. Or maybe I read your entry as those symptoms only occuring after you would try to sleep.
However, if your symptoms have gotten worse, perhaps try going to the emergency room again. I know it sounds pointless after the way they treated you the last time, but they should take this seriously if your condition is getting worse. Or do you have another hospital nearby? I know I go to one in another town because it is the one I trust. Maybe another hospital would have a more respectful staff on hand in the emergency room. *hugs*
And I'm doing all right, hun. I feel much better now, thank you. But I would feel even better if those doctors of yours would get their butts in gear. :)
