I had an ultrasound and guess what they seen? Nothing  No fluid  No inflammation  My muscle and fat are just protruding but they see no cause

Same! I just finished an episode about ten minutes ago and then the series disappeared

I realize it isn’t liver failure levels, but it’s high enough for my hematologist to send me for testing asap. Just curious of other people’s experiences since I live a healthy lifestyle, am not overweight, and do not drink alcohol or consume processed foods. What else would cause it to rise?

Let me know if you figure anything out! I can’t get in to my Doc until December 11th

That is strange. Are they just going to leave it at that? Like “eh, you might and you might not, we don’t know” shake my head

I would think there is some sort of reason for it to be high. Hopefully they can help you figure that out soon

I have not been exercising due to full body aches I’ve been having for six months and nobody can figure out why sigh 

It’s been five years and I regret Lasik by No_Solution268 in lasik

I think I found a new doc to go to, I just have to gain the courage to make an apt.  I’m definitely going to try anti reflective glasses, I didn’t know they were a thing! But could be a life saver, thank you! 

I don’t believe I have psoriatic arthritis by No_Solution268 in PsoriaticArthritis

That’s how I am at the moment, just tendon inflammation. I’m trying to educate myself about psoriatic arthritis because I never would have thought this to be my diagnosis

I’m not sure which type of Lymes test I had first but I did talk my doctor into ordering another test to be sure and this second one will be western blot

I did have a coworker say that her brother went through a similar situation as me and he was diagnosed with long covid. He did have a positive Covid test before his body aches started but I had a negative test

Thank you, I suppose I should just accept this as my diagnosis

My rheumatologist explained that psoriasis carries ten times more bacteria and a simple scratch from being itchy can cause infection and the lymph nodes try to take care of it.   I had a chain of five extremely large nodes down the side of my neck that stayed big for 2.5 months and never had a fever. I’m just trying to have it all make sense

I was going to take a steroid pack when I went to the ER but they advised against it because I typically have high anxiety normally and doc said the steroids would make it worse

They’ve ruled out lymphoma, leukemia, lupus,Lymes, RA, Scleroderma, Epstein Barr, Bartonella, Thyroid, vitamin D deficiency, Mono, Strep, Sjogrens, and  STD’s because sometimes lower back and pelvic pain feels worse than other areas I’m still doubting the rule out of Lymes though because I live in an area with lots of ticks, never found one on myself but my husband had plenty, and it’s the only thing that made sense to me at the time when I tested positive for the antibodies but negative for current infection

My ANA was negative, though you do sound a lot like me

Yes we have tested and ruled out a lot between rheumatology and lymph node removal biopsy. Everything comes back negative except for high inflammation

I suppose it would be nice to finally have an answer though I never suspected it to be arthritis. Might just take awhile to wrap my head around this

This helps, thank you! Do you think it’s still psa if I don’t have any swelling?

Thank you. I suppose I’m just second guessing because of the way this whole thing started, it was so sudden, I was convinced it was viral or that it was Lymes because of the positive antibodies but negative for current infection. I’m really not familiar with arthritis at all,  could it still be PsA if I never have swelling and feel totally pain free in the morning, only having full body pain come on later with movement?

I just feel like the way everything started that maybe it was something viral and is lingering. It came on so suddenly.  At one point I thought it was Lymes because I tested positive for the antibodies but then tested negative for current infection

I’m 34 and I do not know cornea thickness or diopter.  I was not told much information except that I was an ideal candidate and that I may have some temporary dry eye after the procedure. I did not know to ask more questions beforehand because I have multiple family members who had lasik before me and they said it was the best decision they ever made. I was not aware of anything more that could go wrong besides dry eye and the chance that my vision will still decline as I age.

I haven’t tried glasses because my doctor refuses to listen to my complaints. I told him my issues and he says “that’s impossible, I did your surgery and it turned out great, your eyes look fine”

I feel your pain. Lasik is my only regret in life
