So very happy that you have water!
Do you think it will work to do the laundry twice a week? I sounds like it could be a workable plan. M |

The cardiologist had all the results of my stress test (I don't know why my PCP did not)... I passed with flying colors
I have been smoking for close to 25 years, so I do have some mild calcifications in my arteries (atherosclerosis). And he told me that the heart blocks shouldn't give me any trouble for another 30yrs or so UNLESS I don't quit smoking. He told me that I don't need to deal with severe cardiac (and/or lung) problems in addition to battling MS. Of course I already know that tho He also told me that the heart blocks wouldn't stand in the way of me having the colorectal surgery I need, especially since I just passed a stress test. I was really worried about that, so I was very relieved. He said that from what he has seen so far, there isn't any cardiac reason for my symptoms, but was interested in how the tilt table test would turn out. And said if it was negative, he said we would have to start looking at the side effects of medications... which is scary because I'm stable right now, and they will probably want to go right after the 800mg of Seroquel I take every day (which is probably what it is ). I had the tilt table test this morning, and I'm certain it was negative. I didn't pass out. I got nauseous and a little dizzy, but it didn't reproduce the same symptoms I've been having. The last med I added (recently) was Allegra. It shouldn't be causing these kinds of symptoms, but I will stop taking it beginning tonight just in case it's the culprit. Next up is Singulair. Same deal. About the laundry... I can't handle doing it twice a week. I'm having enough trouble trying to keep up with what I should be doing now. I shouldn't be doing laundry by myself at all. Corey does nothing to help me, so that SOB should be at least stepping up to help me with that... There is going to be a problem this weekend tho. It will be 94 degrees out Saturday and 97 on Sunday, and I can't be out in weather like that, and I know he won't want to leave early enough to go to the laundromat when it's cooler out. |

Yes, its really great.
Kay, Are the things going on symptoms of things like allegra and singulair? Curious because they are the same kind of drugs right? Also could it be you need more water or something not sure what. Donna |

I drink A LOT of water. It's important to do so to help keep my kidney function from getting worse. I guess I always drank a lot tho. I think if I drank anymore I would float away lol.
There are a lot of interactions between my psych meds, but there's no interaction between Allegra and Singulair. I didn't take the Allegra last night, but I didn't feel any better this morning. I started taking the Singulair months before my symptoms started, so I doubt discontinuing that would help either. I'm at a loss. And I'm done with all these f- tests. I wish that whatever is causing this would just run it's course. Corey has his physical for the Department of Transportation today to renew some licenses for work. Last night he got s- faced (he had 14 beers that I'm aware of), even tho I warned him about showing up hungover (which could mean still drunk). I was worried about that, so I had made the appointment for 12:30pm. At least he went to bed around 8pm last night. BUT the a- hole put Bailey's in 2 coffees this morning. I could have killed him!!! I hope that when they test his pee, they either don't test for alcohol, or it's already out of his system. And I hope his blood pressure will be okay. I forgot to take it before he left for his appointment. I warned him against drinking coffee or smoking butts before he goes in for the physical so it won't be too high, but I'm sure he won't listen to that advice either. I hope things go well... |
