Hey, its been a while since i have come on here...was sick and busy moving for the last few months but im back...for now :). Anyway, so I just moved to Brockville Ontario which is close to ottawa and now have to be referred to a neurologist in ottawa. I have a nurse practitioner here who mentioned r...

We think that now I may have been poisoning myself...I leave my window open all day long and all night. My window opens to a room thats between the house and the garage...we're wondering if from all the traffic and stuff that goes by here(i live on two busy streets here in regina) if I had carbon mo...

Hey Jimmylegs, Thanks for your message. I spent the night in the hospital again and they had me see my general surgeon this morning for my hida scan results(we were pretty sure i would have surgery) but he told me that its not my gallbladder causing my symptoms and that its probably just irritable b...

Havent been on here in a while because I've been really really sick. So turns out that my neurological symptoms can all be explained as gallbladder disease(gallbladder disease can cause swallowing problems which in turn creates speech problems). Also my vertigo and nausea can be explained by this. I...

Where are you located??? cuz it depends on where you are.

I've been having problems with constipation for the last few weeks...mainly because im on t3's right now for a gallbladder issue while i await a hida scan before surgery. I've tried everything...i did the laxative thing on the weekend and i was going all day saturday but never got the feeling of bei...

ive suffered with headaches since i was a teenager(i am now almost 28)...did seek help for them until i moved back from edmonton to regina...i wouldnt call them migraines...i've had a few migraines before but the dr says my headaches are tension headaches...i notice when i have a migraine i cant sta...

Jimmylegs, I really have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to supplements...lol. all i did before this was a multi and then calcium and vitamin d(as the dr perscribed it). I took all three new supplements at the same time...I'm sure this is not correct tho... it was magnesium 450mg(all they had w...

Jimmylegs, Thanks for all the info again...i started all the supplements today. few more questions...how long does it normally take for a person to see an improvement with these supplements??? I know i cant expect it to be right away. and...was wondering what would help with extreme fatigue??? I've ...

Jimmylegs,

Another quick question-...vitamin d3..is that in regular vitamin d???
I dont know much about vitamins...all ive taken other than the multivitamin is vitamin d and calcium(while i was on depo to help with bone loss)

Jimmylegs,

Thanks for all the info you provided it will help a lot once i get the money(right now on ei and only get 420 every 2 weeks so it mainly goes to my bills). I go back to work part time next week...soo a couple more weeks and I shall test it out

Flautenmusik, Yup they checked my gallbladder...thats what my dr figured it was...they did an ultrasound and xrays... today i went to see the general surgeon for follow up and he's sending me for a hida scan and a gastroscopy(the gastroscopy test isnt until may 6th)...i think he figures its my gall ...

Okay now I'm cranky :) I just typed all this and then the computer froze so i lost it. I went back to the er today, same pain as i had last week...kept me up all night again. The Dr there suggested that I have a scope done by Dr Malik(i have worked with him before when i had chronic diarrhea for 2 y...

Does anyone have this problem??? If so what does it feel like to you? A week ago I had an extreme burning in my chest(warm feeling) and what felt like my heart fluttering...I went to er and nothing was wrong with my heart, they said it was acid reflux and gave me some sort of antacid and sent me hom...

Just to begin with, I have not been diagnosed yet... The brain zap you experienced was one of my symptoms(tho I havent had one in a couple months) I would just be at work on the phone and it would happen...then my pupils would dilate like crazy...it always made me take about a 10 minute break from t...
