Just curious if anyone has tried the adrenal cocktail for POTS? Trying to remember...tartar sauce, salt, a juice like lemon (they recommend orange-i am allergic to oranges) and water. Tartar sauce is loaded with potassium. It can help the adrenals and then possibly the POTS. I think my...

I have sjogrens also. I do not have RP and I am sorry you have this diagnosis. I also have a primary immune deficiency-CVID and lymphopenia. I have had so many surgeries, too. Lost an ovary, Fallopian tube, wrist surgery, back surgery in 1995 and (partial disc removal) and thyroid removal...

So, I am seeking out an orthopedic surgeon to really check me out as the disc protrusion in my back is causing such pain down my leg and this has been going on for a year. Originally they thought it was an SI joint issue, failing to ever do an MRI. My ortho that I see now did an MRI and both...

Uh...I am so sorry. That's awful. I didn't realize that migraines/neck issues could do that.

I don't think I mentioned this but last Friday I threw out my back. I can barely function. Then on Monday I had an epidural in my neck. Now I can't sleep on top of it. I am so sick and I can't get my lower back into a better place. My lower back now is the main issue. This is unreal. I...

Hi and thank you. It started in 2015 after I had my wrist operated on. I went to PT then and it did help. It went away or wasn't an issue until last year when I fell in the tub. I fell and actually injured my lower back, but my neck felt it also. I have a herniated disc in my lower back...

Has anyone ever had a pinched nerve in your neck where there was abnormal MRI but it wasn't significant? I have a pinched nerve with degeneration of discs but not issue with it causing narrowing in the spinal canal. The ortho doc is saying there should not be need for this much pain. Well...
