[QUAD-L] AD / Oxygen

2007-11-05 Thread Greg
I had a bad morning. I got overheated during the night, not much sleep. Then
just as I got up, my nose got stuffed up from allergies.  Though I wasn't in
AD (autonomic Distraflexia), I had that same kind of feelings. Like not
getting enough oxygen, your too hot, your too cold, you want to get up, but
the  you want to lay down, almost a panic feeling. The more you think about
it, the worse it gets. My blood pressure, heart rate, temps, all ok, just
the feeling of not getting enough oxygen.

 

This ever happen to you?

 

I feel like I'd like to have an oxygen take close by, just for those bad
days. I know it's all in my head, but I wonder if it would help.

AD can be varied in the symptoms. Sounds like you had it in a more mild form. 
When you become a quad you don't control your hypothalmus like you should, if 
at all. This puts out hormones that let you survive in a wide range of 
temperatures. It does other stuff too. When you become hypothermic and 
hypersensative at the same time, you got AD going. Once I passed out in a 
hydrotherapy tank. The lady in charge was really upset and I slept for 3 days. 
I'm sure glad your not still cooking. 


Best wishes

Did you guys ever consider a pulse/ox device? That way you would know if 
you truly were short of oxygen.

Too warm in bed brings this on in me.   Also,  Mirapex (for restless legs - 
spasms) seems to have something  to do with it as does Melatonin (for sleep).  
Maybe I'll switch back to  booze.  I REALLY hate the panic attacks.  I have to 
get up and sit in  front of a fan or go outside in the open.  Glad I'm not 
alone.

Believe me that Oxygen is dispensed by RX only.  You a script from a  doctor 
for even a small amount, so be aware before hand.

Hey Greg (and Dan),

 Well, I just spent 15 minutes dictating and correcting an e-mail to
you and the whole computer shut down.  Try number two!

 I have had asthma since I was very little (hereditary).  But it is
only triggered by a three or four things.  These are animal dander,
humidity, the powder found in latex gloves, and sometimes nerves. 
Although very rarely the latter.

Living here in the desert with such low humidity has never triggered
an asthma attack.  But I remember when we lived in Virginia seven
years ago my room would get stuffy and I would take a puff of
albuterol from my inhaler many mornings before my husband went to work
 when I would be alone.  That brought nerves into it a little.

I don't think I would go to the extreme of having an oxygen tank
unless you were diagnosed with some type of lung problem.  Perhaps
 when you do get overheated (stufy room too maybe) along with anxiety
you are experiencing a form of asthma.  Like Dan, just a puff for two
of albuterol from my inhaler helps me breathe better no matter what
the case.  I have not used it in a long, long, long time but it is
always in my backpack just in case.
