Today I found out my blood pressure was 160 over 100 ( :sdeek:). Also, they pasted these things on my chest to see how my heart was doing and they had two glitches on the scan and want me to come back in 4 weeks for something else. :ohno: However, when changing my medication today, she said, "We wanna make sure we don't make it too strong. You're still pretty young and we don't want any problems in the love department ( ;)). :ROFL: I love my doctor.

Before anyone goes to the doctor you should know that the doctors time is 1000 times more
important than yours. You should arrive at 8:45 for a 9:00 appt. and then expect to read bad magazines
until 9:50 when your name is eventually called. Good grief how does someone get so far behind on
their third patient of the day.

i went to the doctor for routine maintenance one time. I had him look at some moles on my back to be safe.
Doc: "well those aren't technically moles, no risk here"
me: "what are they? nipples? hahahaha"
Doc: "hmmm... its possible."

wacky you should get a BP monitor and send daily logs to _FAN to chart

Hypertenstion is high blood pressure. It is a disease. I don't think diseases are reactionary. I have been wrong on a lot of things, so Dr. gE needs to respond.

It can be, but if it's consistently high then that is hypertension. You should probably buy a $50 wrist monitor from your local pharmacy and monitor that.
-

To an extent. I wouldn't expect any noticeable changes due to diet until sticking with it for at least a few weeks, though. If you can do something for the anxiety, I would expect more immediate results. I'm not sure what you are supposed to do about that, though, other than maybe improving your outlook on life. What is stressing you out? If it's money, don't worry about it. Just take all of the money you are saving due to not drinking any more and pay off your debt.
-
Isn't blood pressure reactionary in most cases tho? :dunno: I've seriously never followed mine before.
there's this thing referred to as "white coat syndrome" where people get a little anxious in doctor's offices so their blood pressure will elevate. 160/100 is pretty damn high though. you are the demographic that doctors especially struggle with because you are otherwise healthy and not obese so it will be tough to get you to change your lifestyle.
the more you know. :gocho:
-
How many hours of sleep do you get at night?
-
Great deets you guys. I usually only sleep for like 6 hours. Unless I've had a few night caps and I can sleep for a solid 8-9. She gave me some natural sleep medicine for ppl w/ anxiety. She thinks lack of sleep is half the problem. My anxiety isn't money. It's just hard to explain. It's a chemical imbalance that runs on my moms side. It's just certain moments out of nowhere. Hence, the time I gave a cheers to my former CEO at my last job, shook, and blasted his glass. It's hard to explain, but I feel a lot more comfortable with this new doctor.
Maybe it's younger brother syndrome. I'm always waiting for the slap! :dunno:

Propecia will kill your sex drive. I wouldn't mess with that crap if I were you. Either suck it up and accept the baldness or try rogaine.

I just got my lab results back and I guess I have extremely low thyroid levels. Like almost as low as it can get. This is the cause for severe depression, hair loss and trimmers at times (which might explain my fear of public speaking all of a sudden). They’re getting me on thyroid medicine, plus a fish oil and a bunch of vitamins to help me. I knew something was up, it’s just nice to know that I wasn’t crazy this whole time. I mean, i'm on anxiety medicine, thyroid medicine, and blood pressure medicine now at the age of 29. :sdeek:?

I don't think it works like that. I mean he's got basically lady T right now, so they're just balancing him out. So then he's a regular joe with an increased chance at bitch tits and higher risk for prostate cancer. He'll feel better tho (for a while).

I saw her last week on the other stuff. It was a follow up. The zardas suggested their doctor to me and i've been seeing her the last 6 months.

Tiny bones are a side effect of low T, fanman.

I just got my lab results back and I guess I have extremely low thyroid levels. Like almost as low as it can get. This is the cause for severe depression, hair loss and trimmers at times (which might explain my fear of public speaking all of a sudden). They’re getting me on thyroid medicine, plus a fish oil and a bunch of vitamins to help me. I knew something was up, it’s just nice to know that I wasn’t crazy this whole time. I mean, i'm on anxiety medicine, thyroid medicine, and blood pressure medicine now at the age of 29. :sdeek:?
Is this like choking on your food or something?

I've had a whole host of mental health issues for the majority of my life. Docs have prescribed lots of meds over the years, and none of them have done jack crap. I've been seeing a psychologist lately though, and he seemed to think that most of my problems were actually just symptoms of having untreated ADHD. He wanted me to see a psychiatrist and get some meds for the condition, I was very :dubious: due to my previous experiences. Finally bit the bullet though, and today is my first day on ADHD meds. Holy crap, I feel fantastic. First time I've felt genuinely happy, motivated, and clear minded in years.
-
that is great. happy for you.

ya that's big time. sometimes just knowing the cause of your condition can bring some relief.

I mean this new guy says hey you're suffering from this, but I think it might be related to ADHD. So obviously it wasn't something that is standard issue ADHD symptoms.

He didn't spot any other symptoms, he's just the first one to suggest that the other mental health issues WERE symptoms of untreated ADHD. I've had other doctors diagnose me with ADHD before, but they were more interested in treating the other stuff first. After doing some reading over the past few weeks, it seems like most of the doctors I've been to before are dumbasses.

"b's" are only tough at the beginning of words. I sound like that cartoon dog Droopy when I say them. They're easy to skim over in the middle of words. "v's" are pretty easy (KATDADDY, NO!!) but I'm not sure how that makes sense.

It doesn't. V and F are both labio-dental consonants. The mouth action involved (KATDADDY!!!) is identical. Only difference is that V engages the vocal chords and F does not.

It doesn't take as much air for them. When I try to pronounce "f" or "p" all the air I'm trying to push out gets stuck in the side of my cheek instead of being expounded normally.

how is trying to eat? are you at risk of biting off and consuming half your face while chewing because you cant feel it? does stuff fall out?
-
Liquids are tough. My face/mouth aren't numb, just paralyzed so feeling isn't an issue. I feel like a slob because half my mouth stays open when I chew food. Besides smiling/laughing, eating is definitely the most embarrassing part of this whole ordeal.

Have they identified the cause? Bell's Palsy can be caused by HIV. :Wha: I'm not saying it's that, but it's probably that.

Also my left eye can't close all the way unless I really focus, so it's always red and hurting. I even have to tape it down when I sleep.

Interesting if accurate.

Well if what you say is in fact accurate then I recant and say this. Mrs Bf has been getting pressure from a classmate to start up a telemedicine practice/service for western Kansas folks to use. Should she be worried about an increased potential for lawsuits? Seems like its more likely for her to miss something and then :fan-1:
-
No she should be worried about making tons of money she helping tubs of people.
-
I'd be less worried about lawsuits, really.

Not sure it is less awkward for the physician to tell me to take my pants off and then leave for 5 min. A simple turn around or wash hands and get gloves or whatever would be more efficient.

I'd be less worried about lawsuits, really.
Ok, I think I know what your saying.

I basically mean that there is only so much you can do if you aren't physically present, so you really aren't going to screw anything up. It's not like you can lose a lawsuit as a doctor for a simple misdiagnosis, anyway.
