Default Did I damage my nociceptors?

Do nociceptors regenerate as nerve fibers do? I think this is my problem.

I think they were damage by the deep massage, plus the MRIs. Does this make any sensce? How can anyone knows if there nociceptors are damage?

Am i causing Hyperalgesia, with my sickness behaviour?

By the way have you seen this article?

What is your vitamin D level? If you don't know, get it tested.

Low D leads to low calcium absorption, and low calcium leads to paresthesias.

You might have paresthesias...look that one up!

I am NOT going to read every article you put up here. This last one concerns severing a large nerve experimentally with a KNIFE..and testing recovery. You copy/pasted that term rather quickly and bounced right back here for someone else to explain it to you.

These articles you find by cutting and pasting are complex, mostly done by physiology experts, to help understand how nerves work and heal. They are not always applicable to average patients.

Filipe, you need to find something to do with your time. Don't you have a job to occupy you? Taking your mind off your immediate problems by doing something else, will help your body recover and avoid stress. I think you need help and support where you live. See your priest or pastor or rabbi, and join a group therapy class, learn yoga, meditation, to help you relax.

I hope you find some way to cope with your unhappiness and sadness. We cannot do that for you here. That is a job you will have to find a way to accomplish. In your own words you are improving. Be glad of that.

I wish you continued improvement for the new year.

Thank you mrs D.

I'm gonna tried to think on something else. The truth is that this is all so very strange and new to me. But it is not the first time i get sick. Last year I got some heart problems. I had Atrial Fibrilation (arritmia). I got into the hospital 4 times. I did all kind of exams and nothing was discovered. Now I'm very affraid it is all related. I also had problems with my tyroid (tyroidite) that are controlled now. It is just too much in the last year. Now I have something, that I don't know what it is, I have a strange kind of raction to MRIs. Well, with a one year baby, I guess this is too much. And I'm also a little fragile psichologicaly... I was an unhappy fellow with health, now I'm just an unhappy fellow without health

You have a thyroid problem? I've been telling you the entire time to get your thyroid tested, these problems sounds like a thyroid problem. I've been telling you this for a month!

Hypothyroidism can cause neuropathy, Mrs. D and I have both told you that a few times.

Yes, but is contolled. It was a very small tyroid disfunction. It was not low nor hiper tyroidism. I take Eutirox (0,25) every day. My blood tests are normal now. So can't one expect a Regeneration of neves hence less pain?

Look fliipe,

NONE of us can assume anything in the medical world, if that were the case then you wouldn't be here, now would you?

Stop rolling in pity, get it together, call the doctor, write all these questions down and ask him.

Do you not think we're all going through the same thing? Biting our nails, praying we get answers? Don't turn down my opinion just because it isn't what you want to hear.

Default Not only can thyroid problems cause nerve dysfunction--

--but even "correcting" the hormonal imblaance will not immediately take away the neruological symptoms.

As we've been saying, nerve take a long time to heal, and they produce a lot of odd sensations (parasthesas) in the process, and it's often hard to tell, except in long-term retrospect, whether the symptoms are healing ones or not.

On the other hand, you have reported in other posts that the symptoms tend to not be as global as before, or as severe on a regular basis--that might well be a good sign.

And, I do wonder how much of this has been due to your going on and off the medications you've described. Cycelops and Mrs. D have given you lots of info on how these med withdrawls can produce all kinds of odd sensations. . .
