Again, if no one else hears speech changes, they're not real. If you want proof, say the same sentence every week into your phone and record your voice. So as before, our best advice will be to seek counseling to better deal with the anxiety, which is often unrelated to your health and just...

100% , reread the first sentence of Nikki's last post. Since you have a mild peripheral neuropathy, it may be worth asking your PCP or neuro for a referral to a hand therapist who can help you maintain the strength/flexibility of any muscles that you may have unconsciously be favoring/resting...

Yes, I will PM you, TB.

I'd always keep a copy of your own rx for meds, devices, and such, not let someone send one to someone else without your having a copy. SecondWind doesn't care who sends them the rx, but you might need it one day. O2 only in place of BiPAP makes zero sense. O2 in addition to BiPAP only makes...

It is also reasonable to keep a food diary against possible adult-onset allergies/GERD, drink more non-alcoholic liquids (before and after eating as well as during), and check your furnace filters and environmental exposures outside the home.

So sorry about your friend. None of us is promised tomorrow, that's for sure. No conflict between BiPAP and meds -- start what you get when you get it. I would not accept any Respironics machine. Many of the recalled/ "fixed" machines had new issues. The DME may mean the serial number isn't on...

You have answered all your own questions. Stop googling. Keep living. There is no reason to think of ALS or anything like it. Let the physio evaluate you and go from there. If you have anxiety, it can affect your sleep, which can affect how your body feels, moves, and twitches. And sometimes...

Edema should be evaluated by a PCP. No one can explain your feelings of weakness from afar. And shakiness is not necessarily anything at all. This could be anything from a postviral condition to lack of sleep, a mattress that needs replacing, deconditioning, so many things. I wouldn't jump to...
