First I want to say thanks to all who have so far welcomed me here and been able to answer any posts, not just mine. I know first hand how challenging typing can be for some of us, limbo or diagnosed!
Plus, those of you with much knowledge and experience to share, it really is very cool the way you reach out to others here. Giving despite your own challenges is a very positive and caring thing to do!
Wow, excuse me, so serious tonight, oops, early this morning. But humor escapes me right now, so on to the questions.
(I had a sick visit with my GP today, and he agrees i have kidney stones, have a ct monday - oh joy, steroids for 2 days because allergic to the contrast, plus the huge midnblowing 2 day headeache from the contrast die afterwards, thrilling.)
question 1 - if this isn't kidney stones, can unkown neuro issues like MS create kidney issues? if so, what and how is it treated?
question 2, same as above, but concerning your heart. I have to see a cardiologist immediately because in my visit the chest pain with the kidney issues made doc run an EKG, and there are changes in mine, enough so that doc who doesn't prescribe pain meds did, so kidney pain wouldn't make heart worse.
To top it all off, I am under strict orders to do NOTHING STRENUOUS! Doc has me a bit afraid. He has never dealt with me this way before, and the look on his face and insistent tone of voice spoke volumes.
Whatever anyone wants to call (or not call) what i have going on, ii in full blown gear. major flareup unlike any other the last 25+ years. IF God forbid this is anything like MS when all is said and done, i was thinking relapsing/remitting. but now am thinking this may be a permanent downhill slide. 5 months and things are not seeming to get better, before at the most i had a few days to a couple of weeks of symptoms.
thanks in advance for any help, and reading this long vent of sorts. as my youngest will tell me, "too many words Mama. enough already!"
hope, joy and love sent to everyone,
Flow.
