wishing you luck!

I did a search on clammy hands and feet and the result was, effect of the autonomic system and sympathic . So it does look like a harmless effect of anixiety.

did you ask a dr. about the cause of the clammy feet and hands?

re: menopause testing

thanks lthomas,

the doc did mention that about the antis, the trouble with the sedating ones is that I generally lack energy to begin with. And I was thinking if this becomes a serious depression I will have to take the meds.

Most likely there will be no problem re the liver. But the less meds, the better is always a guideline. We (the dr and I) are trying to avoid it.

I was telling Pat S I was crying in my dreams over a realistic situation (at school) with my 11 year old. Not something that did happen but not wild dream material either. Anyway I take that as sympton of depression too. Well -if it gets bad there will be no question.

Have to write melanie and see what I can learn about menopause. I am 50 years old, BTW.

I appreciate the concern

and thankyou OLL I plan to check that out. I work at McDonald's! That al'do it. (made me smile- yeah that's a good sign!)

I went looking for that book (which is due to arrive on the 4th), OLL, and came across this.

interesting........

congratulations. I hope she continues to sleep well for you. That will help.

I suggest acupunture. Can't hurt!

good luck, I'm so sorry.

thankyou guys,

menopause has not been ruled out . I've been peri- seems like forever, but at least 5 years. Only time will tell if my last period was indeed my last. The doc did not- yet -run the FSH (?) soon I suppose.

Everything is ok except for visiting my mother in a nurseing home, and I have huge guilt over that. But I don't go because I think I need to tend to the home front. Been about a month since I was there.

I love church but have not been going about a year- not enough energy for everything.

Irritable and tearfull was ok, I did not take it seriously and found my sentimental emotionalism humorous. I was aware of, but bearing ,the guilt over my mother, but recently- like yesterday- I felt taken a hold of. Its like being hopelessly ensnared.

I have only felt that once before and it was deppression.

I will PM you roselover.

thanks again

been increasinly irritable, tired, tearful. Thought it was menopause. I think it may be deppression now. I can't take anti deppressents and sleep- they keep me up. I may refuse to take them. Doc wants to see me in 6 weeks, agreed to put me on St. Johns wort. If I have to take a sleep med to counter the anti- its just not good.

I have liver damage. I did experiance major deppression once from anti-viral meds. I took the procaz for that- since, a, I was not working and could afford to toss and turn, and b, I knew it would lift when the anti viral treatment was over. ANYWAY, I DO NOT WANT TO GO THERE AGAIN!

It could be wrong for you,but I find that moving with the pain and stiffness "works it out". I swear by the temperpedic bed too.

I let my doc choose the tests to run!

When I have input he listens.

I suspect that Drs. have a protacol that they must follow- for three reasons. One being ins company rules ,to protect them from malpractice, and the standard that they were taught works best.

It is very frustrating how long a dx takes sometimes and its possible to meet with high or low abilites in any field. I think the human body is enormously complex and that's the heart of the matter.

BUT you Dr. should "answer" the concerns you put forth here. That is a fair expectition- I think.

good luck!

yours worked for me tammy.

testing!

go to Psychiatry

then

Depression & Chronic Disease: Understanding the Vital Link

but still no page, I think one has too registar

was the VA hospt. a long trip for you?

So glad they were competent.

can you go back for further care- there?

your are certainly welcome.

and again, good luck!

masuemh,

I have a feeling your conversion disorder, is the same as my DX of puesdo seizures.

inaccurate! However I'm not saying I think it is epilespy. Something to keep in mind. The body is enormously complex. You might ask your neuro about getting a "SPECT" scan. I got one. I was sent to a phychiratrist with puesdo seizures, he ordered the SPECT Scan checking for epilepsy. From that of course I deduce its heplfull to DX epilepsy.

lamictal causes downregulation of cortical 5-HT which antidepressents do also.

"However, its exact mechanism of action in these conditions remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antidepressant-like effect of lamotrigine in a mouse model of depression, namely the forced swimming test"

masumah, Tammy,
