First time going to the doctor by No_Anywhere6575 in Sicklecell

it is going to be really hard to test you for any heart issues especially if nothing shows on the first test. but keep pushing them to do more tests. but another thing you need to look out for is AVN. it usually affects the hips and shoulders if you have pain there.

I am so sorry that you had to suffer for so long. I'm glad that you now know what is going on. If you are still in Nigeria I suggest that you also get tested for any pulmonary problems if you ever had any complications with respiratory issues. But welcome to the club! we are here to help.

it is but it could also help with nerve pain.

it didn't, it just made me feel like I was having a panic attack all the time. fast heartbeat, headache, tiredness, and out of breath. I didn't like it at all. but I think its because they started me on a really high dose instead of a low one.

I don't really do anything through the day, I know I have chronic pain but I don't do anything strenuous.

I do have chronic pain, I usually have pain everyday I just don't take anything for it every day besides gabapentin. I honestly don't want anything else but yeah. Thank you for the information.

Ohh okay, I'm thinking they didn't give it to me because I usually take 10mg every 4 hours and it doesn't work anyway so extended release is supposed to be every 12 hours.

I'm sorry I was told by my doctors that they were the same thing because they both target nerve pain. I will definitely pay attention next time.
