P SUDIK

Hi Morgan,welcome back,just want to say "Yea,one for our side" Pat

I have taken ambein everynight for years,I cannot sleep without,I don't seem to have any bad side effects,Pat

I talked with the surgeon and the anesthsioligist(sp) before my last surg. They gave me extra fluids and nausea meds.,that really helped and I did pretty well.Don't be afraid to voice any concerns.Best of luck with your surg. Pat

Hi, I do have acid reflux,but I find my voice gets very weak, after too much exertion,Pat

Hi Shelley,just want to say hi and welcome, Pat

Everything exhausts me,I do rest,but I don't sleep alot, I can't. I always feel like am running on high,but my body can't do what my mind wants.Does this make sense to anybody else,anyone else feel like this? Pat

That sounds so nice! In the summer,if it's not too hot or humid I sit by the lake,it's relaxing I just love the water.Pat

Well I just wanted to say I am now passed 60,and no better. Pat

Sending good thoughts and prayers, Pat

I have so many doctor stories,but I am only going to give you one of my favorites for now.

One cardio told me if I got a boyfriend, I would be fine. Yeah right , Pat

Hi,I am very sensitive to many meds. but I did not have a problem with cipro. Good luck with your decision,keep us posted, Pat

I know there are so many young people with POTS. I am curious as to how many developed it at an older age,and what was the cause?

I did not get POTS til I was 55,after back surgery. Thanks Pat

Morgan,we will miss you,please take good care.I will keep you in my prayers,HUGS, Pat

Can someone tell me,what the ear marks are for hyperadrenic POTS? I do have POTS,don't know what kind?

Thanks Pat

Sara,I will add you and your family(especially your dad) to my prayers,Pat

Thanks for your good thoughts and suggestions.

As for my claim going to Idaho,it was supposed to speed things up,because they don't have as many cases there.

Thanks again,I'll keep you posted,Pat

Hi everyone,I know many of you have been thru this and some are still going thru this,(so I know you can relate).

I have been disabled since July of 2003,I had lower back surg.and that's when POTS any many other medical conditions began. I have been denied SSD, several times and have been waiting for a hearing since Nov. of 2005. My file was sent to Idaho in Jan.of 2008,I live in Ohio.I was told today by my lawyer's office that Idaho did not approve but sent it back to Cleve.to see if someone here will approve it or I will still have a hearing.When???

Anyway thanks for listening and please wish me luck,Thanks Pat

Yes,this happens to me all the time, Pat

After reoccurring uti's (every couple of months for about 2 yrs.) and a cystoscopy,my Dr. started me on a low dose of antibiotics for 3 months.I just started them today,and was wondering if anyone has tried this and if so what were your results? Thanks Pat

I do take phenergan ,only as needed,.I have 25 mg ,I cut that in half,it works for me, it does however make very sleepy,but no other side effects. Hope this helps ,good luck Pat

Morgan, I am so happy for you,Hugs Pat

Love all your pix,keep them coming,Thanks Pat

Morgan, I hate what you and your son are going through,I will keep you in my prayers HUGS,Pat
