  1. I used to use ambien until a week into it I started to call people, get on the internet and talk to people without having any recollection of it what so ever. I would not recommend that medication to anyone. I take lunesta now and it doesn't seem to do that to me.

  2. I would think that you might be able to find out if there was a significant number of people that developed dysautonomia in any fashion within the Japanese people that were exposed to the bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I think the US began keeping records of any health issues that subsequently developed over the decades following. I wouldn't know how to find this information, but it would probably be the most telling.

    I was born in Japan in the late 50s, so who knows? Were my parents eating food grown on soil contaminated with radiation exposure? I am the youngest in my family, the only one with a bone disease, and the only one incapacitated(now, as an adult). I was the only child conceived and born in Japan.

    On top of that, with my bone disease, I had a gazillion x-rays done throughout my childhood to keep on top of my changing bones.

    So, I have no clue, but would recommend finding studies from the Japan fallout. If you find any info, please share it!

    Yuliya, wow!! You were so close to Chernobyl! I assume your family has to keep a watch out for thyroid cancer.

    yes we have a few thyroid issues in everyone, but for the most part the cancers have been random such as liver and esophagus

  3. So I had my 4th TTT and the doctor seems to be thinking that I have the hyper pots. I also did the breathing test where you blow for like 10-15 seconds and a controlled breathing test. I am now suppose to have a sweat test, and wondering if you had to stand for that, hope not standing and hot places are not my friends? My worst symptoms as of right now is tremors, palpitations, fatigue, insomnia, and calf pain which can be excruciating, I also suffer major migraines and frequent headaches. Any idea as to what kind of medications might help to make me feel a tiny bit better? I just turned 30 and I feel 75, my friends say that my tremors are so bad that they compare them to there grandfathers who both had Parkinsons.

    Thanks for any advice.

  4. When I took Toprol xl I started out 25mg cut in half. It helped lower the amount of palpitations I had through the day, when we finally got to 50mg after about 6 month my pulse fell down in the low 40 and I couldn't get it to go up. I felt really tired and we decided to stop it. Ever person reacts differently and even at 50mg it is considered a low dose. I also react strongly to medications.

  5. I haven't had shoulder surgery, but I have had several other ones and I have never noticed a big change in my symptoms, except maybe the anesthesia lowered my heart rate for a day or so until it wore off, plus all the extra fluids they give you I think helped.

  6. They haven't said anything yet, they just thought my attacks of nausea and pain are gallbladder related, but the scan showed that my gallbladder is just fine, its just when it gets to the oddi sphincter are it doesn't go anywhere. I am suppose to go see a gastro next Friday but in the mean time I was trying to find out more info.

  7. I had a HIDA scan today to check my gallbladder and liver function since I have been having attack for a few month now. Apparently everything works fine, until it gets to the sphincter area where it drains into the intestines. Anyone ever heard of this? The gallbladder emptied and it stayed in the duct, for 15 minute until the test was over and nothing ever happened. I don't have any stones based on the ultrasound so whats going on?

  8. The sleep study results should basically that I have a hard time falling asleep, what a surprise.

    "The patient slept for 248.0 minutes. Sleep latency was prolonged. REM latency was prolonged. Sleep staging revealed a normal percentage of slow-wave sleep and a decreased percentage of REM sleep when compared to normal sleep stage distribution. The patient's sleep efficiency was poor."

    Any one else have similar findings on there sleep study? What does slow-wave sleep and decreased REM sleep have to do with each other, and why do I have it?

    Thanks for any help,

    Yuliya
