Frist off i am out of my anit- depression med's and i can't get more beucase the mental health place is not going to carry the cymbalta anymore and then they gave me something different that i have tryed and its make me very very jumpy and i was breaken down and stuff like that.
So i have to waite till June 11th to go back to my (PCP) and see if he can give me the cymbalta agian because i was feelen pretty good on it . I am still haven trouble with my GI track and i have not been able to get to the GI doc because my health coverage has changed and i now have my medicade card so i i have to waite till june.
My pain (UGH GOD I HATE IT !!!) i am going to ask my doctor to send me to a pain clinc because the pain is getten so bad i am chewen on my lower lip and its all sore and bleeded and stuff. so that is not good . my lortabe is just not doing it any more and i feel so sick all the time and half of the time i do get sick !
I go back to the heart clinc on june 1st for them to check out my (PVS) and to see if my heart is ok from the EDS. but other then that i just try to take one day at a time because that is all you can do .. AND DUCK TAPE NEVER HURTS TO USE TOO ...

Not so good news :(
Well i went to the doctor 2 days ago and i found out some not so good news ... Frist off we found out i have 2 hernia's one is on the wall of my stomach and the other one is looped around my colon. Now i have to wait to see a GI doctor god only know how long i will have to waite. But what got me mad the most is that i had this CT scan done at the ER last month when my mom took me and I can't belive my Doctors office didnot call and tell me or have me come in sooner.
I mean its bad now but with the EDS that makes it worse. I don't know what to think anymore..
sorry this is so short but we have bad storms in the area so i will make it longer later.

Carzy Life....
Oh my god i feel like i have been running around like a chicken with its head cut off !!!! Between doctors , Er trips and more. Mom had to take me to the er last weekend because i was doubled over in pain becuase my stoumch was hurten so bad and we have found out that i have a ulcer..
So i have to stop taken some of my meds because they will make the ulcer worse but at the same time they are some of the meds that keep me going and that help with my pain. On top of that i am still waiten to get my new health card from S.S.. because my pcp wants me to see a stoumch doc and the health incs. i have now will not cover it so i am in hell so in the mean time my doctor gave me some thing called (carafate 1 mg) to help coat my stoumch and gi tracki have to take this before every meal and at night. and i was put back on (zantca 150mg ) two times a day.
My pain is getten worse and i need to see a pain doc which i will start next month i hope i have found one that will take me and he seems nice and he said he will do what he can to help me cope with the pain from the EDS, FIBRO, so that is nice to have a doctor like that . there has been talk about putten a med port in me so when i am in alot of pain they can just inject the meds but i will all so be on pain pills. and i will be going back to USF for more testing and to be retyped for EDS. because we know i have type 3 with type 4 overlay but my doctor and heart doctor want to make sure there is nothing els going on.
I am still able to walk (knock on wood ) becuase i have a lot of friends with EDS and its really i hate to use the word but its crippled them . I do use my cane and stuff alot more then i use to and i use the eleciitc carts at the stores.
well that is all for now ..
huges to all my friends..

New heart problem....
Well i went to the heart doc yesterday for my bp check and for my pvc's. I have been feeling very run down and tried lately so my heart doc did a ekg and bp on me and then i was called into his office. My heart doctor is one of the nicest men in the world he cares so much about me and all of this other clinic kids and adults.
Well anyways i found out i have some thing called ( Pulmonary Valve Stenosis) this is when the valve opens to let blood flow from the right ventricla to the lungs is narrowing . In my case its not very bad right now which is good but if it gets worse they will have to do one of two things and others are 1. a heart cath .or 2, heart surgery agian soo well will just have to wait and see what happends .
But about my pvc's these are extra heart beats and it gets very boredsome to me so i have to wear a loop heart monitor till may 7th . I can take is one off and on for showers and stuff so . Dr. M said he is going to wait and see what comes up before he dose anything he said we may end up putten me on heart meds for it so . that is the update for now .
Oh and i am sick agian soo that is all
bye for now

My Bp was 160/100 that is very bad and my heart rate was 105 so they did it two times and it was the same so they put me in a room and then doctor martinze came in and asked how i was feeling . I told him i was feeling very rundown my chest was hurten and stuff and then he saw what i chart said ! I though the poor man was going to hite the floor he said your bp has never been this high . so he went and got the nurse and he said your not leaven yet we have some stuff to do .So i had to go to 3north on the other side of the builden and get labs and a chest x-ray STAT !! well i got them done and half way back to the office i got a very bad headach and so when i told the girls i was back i just layed down on the row of chairs and then they took my Bp agian and it was 158/90 heart rate 96. so the nurse told me to lay on the table and she turned out the light for me . Dr. martinze and Dr. F came in and talked with me and all my labs were ok but one my infulmation (sp) one was high so i am now on mobic for the chest pain and i just now got off the phone with the on call doc because my Bp is back up agian so i have a feeling i will be back at ACH on monday !! Oh and i am on a 24 hour heart montior till then too .. fun fun !!
