Title: Any ideas what there doing?
Post by briantrudeau on Nov 20^th, 2006, 4:11pm

Hello all again,
just got back from the neuro today and had to take me off 80mg of verapmil due to it causing some crazy beats of the heart throwing in some weird palps all the time. Wants to start me on Depakote at 250 for 3 days then up to 500mg after that. She also ordered a mri of the head again with focus on the Pituitary. My last MRI was 2 1/2 years ago with the same focus on the Pituitary and I had those films with me. Wonering if my glands are off or something around the time the CH started some bladder issues as well as some other things started up as well, Has anyone else had any of these test and if so what were the outcomes, Ive been reading that alot of CH sufferers have low thyroid production as well, Full Blood Lab work was also orderd so trying to figure what they are shooting for. Any feedback would be great. Wishing all pain free days and nights,
Brian

MRIs and CAT Scans to rule out other causes.
