From Lori RE: [QUAD-L] Potassium

2007-09-08 Thread wheelchair




** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
--- Begin Message ---
W, please post the following to the list if you would:

 

Being VERY low on potassium is a dangerous thing.  Besides sodium, it is
the second positive ion in the body and extremely important for many of
the vital organs.

 

In 1997 when I got bronchitis. because I had such a hard time coughing
.I was using my albuterol inhaler many many times a day.  I finally had
to go to the emergency room to get an x-ray to rule out and ammonia.  As
I was in the x-ray room. a nurse came running in with two of the biggest
pills I had ever seen in my life (and by then I had seen plenty) saying
that I had to take them right away.  I asked her why and she told me
that my blood work had just come back and I was very low on potassium.

 

I guess it scares them so much that they could not even wait until the
x-ray was finished!

 

On another potassium related topic. I just had the strangest thing
happen to me less than a year ago.  I had been battling constant urinary
tract infections for years and finally had some big boulders removed
from the bladder itself a year ago this past May.  My doctor and I
thought that would solve the problem.  Unfortunately, I kept having
chronic UTIs.

 

Someone here had suggested the medication "Mandelamine" (I think it was)
as sort of a prophylactic against UTIs.  Anyway, one day my husband and
I were reading about the medication on one particular site and on that
one site. a paragraph glared at us.  It said that one could not take
this medication if they could not get their urine pH to stay at a 6 or
lower.  More acidic in other words.   Up till then I could not get my
urine pH at that ideal number by trying cranberry juice, cranberry
supplements, etc. etc. to get it that way.  The more acidic the urine.
the last chance for bugs to grow.  I have always known that.

 

Anyway, I had been eating a banana every single day for a long long
time.  My husband boinked himself on the forehead with the palm of his
hand as he read that paragraph.  To make a long story short. I stopped
eating the bananas and I have not had a bladder infection since!  Along
with keeping my urine Ph around  the ideal number  6.

 

Who would ever have thought that too many bananas could contribute to
increased bladder infections?  But, when you do some in-depth reading
about potassium. it talks a lot about potassium and the role it plays
with kidney function, etc. etc.  I told my urologist and she was also
glad that we found an answer to my problem that had plagued me for
almost 7 years.

 

That is the second time that the Internet has helped me more than
greatly when even the doctors were without answers.  I love the program
"Mystery Diagnosis" on the Discovery Health Channel.  It portrays what
had happened to me so many times over the years. having all kinds of
symptoms and the doctors can help you either because of laziness or
incompetence.

 

"The more you know."  :-)

Re: [QUAD-L] Potassium

2007-09-08 Thread Quadius
I have pretty low potassium all of the time, but it doesn't require
supplements.  It's right on the borderline.

The reason mine has low is because I drink significant amounts of water.  It
keeps my sodium and potassium level lower than normal.  Bananas do seem to
help a little bit, but I am sure your doctor probably knows more than I do.

Re: [QUAD-L] high blood pressure

2007-09-08 Thread Quadius
Julie,
I occasionally have this problem, but it's not high enough to cause worry
most of the time.  It is only started happening since I have had bowel
problems over the last three or four months.  In my case it might be some
possible pain issues which are triggering minor A.D., but it always seems to
last for a short amount of time.

Hopefully we'll figure it out and be able to rectify the problem.
Good luck,
Quadius

Re: Fwd: FW: [QUAD-L] horrific 4 months

2007-09-08 Thread Quadius
Stacy,
My heart goes out to you.  I thought I was having bad luck until I read your
recent encounters.  I am also having bowel problems that I believe are the
result of overzealous antibiotic treatment.  I had two lesions which opened
up on my chest for no apparent reason and my doctor thought it was a
bacterial infection.  I went on a pretty basic antibiotic and this caused
severe problems with my bowels.  It has been around three months I am still
having difficulties getting back to normal.

Silas and John are right on target with the Acidophilus.  My doctor actually
prescribe this when I was in for my colonoscopy in July.  When I left the
hospital I went by GNC and purchased a couple bottles of the type for
individuals that have lactose intolerance.  I have another bottle I
purchased from Sam's Club.  It has been a long haul over the last few
months, but I am slowly but surely getting better.  Hopefully you will also.
Good luck and I'll be thinking of you.

I understand that this was probably a joke, and not bad either but it got me

The analogy is wasted on me.  Several sexual aids and alternatives are
presented to the populous and this includes some brought to SCI people in
educational classes which would have disapproval to many non European.  To
many SCI injured folks these aids have given birth to intimacy for many.

 

Personally or unfortunately sex is not high on my list but unfortunately I
lack intimacy in many forms which I would desire in my life.   Viagra has
been an option to me compliments of the VA

 

In my sexual ed classes I admit in the beginning I guess I was shocked that

do have applications for many.  Why are many of us , an I shocked that our

[QUAD-L] Fwd: No sick days this school year

2007-09-08 Thread DAANOO

Dear Dana,

To many kids, back to school means dreaded homework assignments,
after school sports, and reuniting with friends after a long
summer vacation. 

But for nine million uninsured kids, back to school means trying
not to get sick or injured on the playground because they don't
have access to affordable health care. 

While the kids are doing their part by showing up for the first
day of school, President Bush is trying to convince Congress to
block their health care, because to him, covering uninsured
children is not a priority.

Call your member of Congress at 1-800-828-0498 and tell him/her
to support a strong CHIP bill to send to the President as soon
as possible. Or click here to send an email:
http://www.familiesusa.org/resource-centers/medicaid-action-center/

Rather than spend $50 billion to expand the CHIP program, as
was passed by the House of Representatives in late July, the
President began lobbying Congress to authorize that exact same
amount to be spent on funding for the Iraq War. [1] 

In a sad demonstration of misplaced priorities, the President
requested another $50 billion to fund 16 weeks of war in Iraq
at the same time he declared his intention to veto $50 billion
for five years of health care for millions of children here in
America. 

His reason? Kids' health care costs too much. 

Please call your member of Congress now at 1-800-828-0498 to
reauthorize the program before it expires on September 30th or
click here to send an email:
http://www.familiesusa.org/resource-centers/medicaid-action-center/

The President's decision to prioritize the war over health care
comes at a time when the number of uninsured Americans has risen
by 2.2 million over the last year. The number of uninsured kids
has increased by over half-a-million. 

Now is not the time to turn our backs to the uninsured, and it
is critical that we send a message to Congress and the President
to stand strong for children's health. 

Sincerely,

Jeff Gordon
Field Director

Thank you.   It has been a long and difficult road, but I truly believe worth 
the effort.

  That's a definite ditto here.  I think I've said it before, but when the 
media ceased looking at me as an interesting person to interview for their 
newspapers and started taking me seriously, it was all I can ask for.  At the 
time I was on the Board of Directors for a major homeowners association here in 
the Tampa area.  It was great to have people view me as an equal to everyone 
else and not as some anomaly.

To chime with everybody, it has been nine years since I was injured, I have 
laughed and struggled, I have return to school and almost completed a 
doctorate, I struggle everyday to be taken ligitamately, I have carved my niche 
and plow ahead like I have never been in a wheelchair, some "able" people think 
I am crazy, because I am out there with them everyday neck and neck, but we all 
know its just how you survive, and I think SCI survivors are better equipt to 
take the rough stuff, I love seeing one of us (or any disability for that 
matter) out and about, especially in positions of authority or high regard,,, 
keep plugging
