ARCHIVED Fibromyalgia? Ra? Both?
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Ok so the RA makes sense then, if you say its heriditary. Almost all females on mom's side of family has it. And am I remembering correctly that Celiac greatly increases the chance of getting it?? What do you guys take for pain relief?? If this helps explaining more, I get the arthritis flareups where I've been injured...most times it will feel like... -
Hi, friends. I know a lot of you have Fibro or RA, so I figured I'd ask you guys...How do you know which you have and did you get tests and is there any medication for it?? I'm confused because I have the symptoms of fibro mainly the swelling and affected by change in weather, but anywhere I researched it said inflammation is RA, not fibro (and I DEFINITELY...

num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Thanks everyone for the belated wishes We went to Rouleau. My friend knows Brent Butt (working in radio he seems to know everyone ha) so we got to look at things up close. Even met the producer ha. Since theres more than one of you who like Corner Gas, I'll load those on and post 'em later today. ~ Lisa ~ -

ARCHIVED Bloodwork Back On Thyroids
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Thank you for being so understanding..When i said that this was nothing/easy to deal with, I meant that compared to all the stomach issues I've been going through and trying to self-diagnose myself, this is minor compared to them. You also understand why I'm not gonna think about anything else but Synthroid, I need to stay on it for quite a while before i... -
ARCHIVED Smitty's = Awesome
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I didnt tip, but I did give them a huge thank you more than once!! They usually offer to toast my bread or whatever, but I explain I can't share a toaster. So i guess from now on i'll just get them to warm it up, knowing that they'll do it . I think we'll be going back more . Even better I'll be living in that city in a few months ~ lisa ~ -
ARCHIVED Bloodwork Back On Thyroids
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
OK so maybe I got the numbers mixed up...maybe it was 0.9 to 5.0. I was sitting there upset that I have yet another thing to add to my list of health problems and could have easily mixed up the 2 numbers. Thats not the whole point of me posting. He tested me for that T4 or whatever and that showed normal but this was way high. I have not had this problem... -
Hello! my name is Dara and i am posting this for Lisa because she is having problems with her computer/internet! "This morning I got a call from the doctors office to come in today because he wanted to see me. So i went this afternoon and I had gotten the bloodwork back on my thyroids. The diagnosis is: I DEFINITELY have hypothyroidism. He told me that...

Yesterday I went to Smitty's in Regina (where we always stop for breakfast/lunch). The lady was kind enough to heat my rice bread for me in the microwave before our meal arrived. The accidently put toast on my plate and she asked "do you have a toast allergy?" I said yes, so she said "we'll go make another one". And sure enough, within a couple of minutes...

Yesterday I went out and bought a book called "Crohn's & Colitis: Understanding and Managing IBD". It's completely amazing. Very detailed, and even has a whole chapter on the diet to try reduce the symptoms. I'm now about 99% sure I know what I have, and why, and what section on my stomach it affects. So if anyone else thinks they have an IBD but...

ARCHIVED I Finally Got The Scope Results
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hmm i'm not sure Deb! I honestly never heard of anything like that. From what I know, they either have gone back to South Africa or to another province. So it'd be impossible for me to see them, anyways. ~ Lisa ~ -
ARCHIVED I Finally Got The Scope Results
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
They dont know that tho, NONE of them. the only ONE who ever has was one that left town a couple years ago. And as i keep saying, I wasnt supposed to be tested for Celiac, its not what was requested or agreed on. Don't you just love Canadian health care . At least the other one here in town says he'll fill out the form for the university (THANK GOD). ... -

num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
What in the world is that??? All i know is he checked off TSH. ~ Lisa ~ -
Maybe I shouldnt be worried about this since he could be wrong, but i went to my family doc this mornin because i swore i had a sore throat (it feels raw and hard to swallow, etc). He tells me no its not my throat, that my thyroids are swollen . So he gave me some dumb prescription for rinsing mouth or whatever, and wants me to go for bloodwork. Should i...

ARCHIVED What Is Good About High Gas Prices...
num1habsfan replied to JerryK's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I find this interesting too: the excuse they have for the rising prices in Canada is farmers are seeding . Sure like its really the farmer's fault its up to 125.9 ...and like the farmers dont seed EVERY spring yet they've never raised it before.... ~ Lisa ~ -
