Hi I had mu initial visit with "Dr Marty" on June 26.� He took bloods and my parents put me down to walk but all i would do is stand in his office to which he replied " We have a lot to do"�
We went over my history and my current complaints of arthritis that was affecting my BM possibly due to increasing lack of strength in my hind legs which is age related but also a side affect of the steroids I have been on for over 3 years now.
The plan is to get me walking comfortably and improve my vision and general quality of life, by one resolving the chronic inflammation evident from the mast cell history and the muscle atrophy and poor eye health attributed to poor liver function as a result of the steroid use.
The doctor prescribed
Bethathyne which is a natural/homepath steroid 1 tab per day
DGP (natural arthritis medicine) 1/2 tab 2 x per day
Muscle Joint drops 1/3 dropper 2 x per day (orally alone)
He gave me a b12 shot, a shot to support my eye health and a shot of tramadel
the next day I was about the same but the following day I was a bit perkier and have since been walking more comfortably.� where as before the visit I was unable to stand for more than 30 seconds without starting to collapse and hold my arms out at weird angles.
I was also un able to stand to eat.
I was doing fine except for loose stool which ended up being too much fish oil in my diet (my mom) was giving me only salmon so that caused me to have a little tummy upset.
She is now giving me salmon every other day for just 1 meal so i am feeling better gastrically.
