    I don't know about your condition, but when my husband had been diagnosed with high platelets, he had to have a platelet infusion. I suspected it was the purple pill he was taking for stomach problems and his doctor kept saying no that is not it. I took him off of it to test it and then platelets count started coming down. Couldn't argue with his doctor he didn't believe it. Who knows what we take anymore. Prescriptions almost always seem to cause other problems.

      Doctors just can't seem to understand anything except their book learning and medical journals they read. We, as their patients, know more about what affects us when we take the medication they prescribe. Listen to your body. It has taken me years to convince my doctor I can't take anything with acetaminophen in it. If I take it for a long period of time, it builds up in my body and then I get hives pop up randomly all over my body and it's a horrible thing to itch constantly especially in areas you can't reach, like the middle of your back! It took me a while to figure out what caused them because I would have the hives for 6 months or longer. So, it was hard to isolate the problem. But, finally, on my own without doctor assistance, figured it out. So I always list it as something I can't take and of course the doctor will question it. I stand firm on it and I haven't had hives since. So, ALWAYS listen to your body and you mind telling you. You are more than likely correct in your own assessment! 😊

      @diannabrooks 3 місяці тому +3

      I agree jb, listening to your body, get down and personal with it. This has worked for me for 71 years now. And I prefer women NPs more than male doctors. Because they take the time and listen to female patients.

    Just wondering.... I believe in a past live stream or maybe a video you were given something to swish in your mouth from taking the steroids. This usually is called a Swish & Swallow. It's usually started as a preventative for yeast or fungal and most often shows up as the white coating on your tongue. Just wondering if you've been given Diflucan tablets. Offering ideas that you and your doc's can talk about. The reason is, my father in law was on several rounds of antibiotics for his condition. The swish & swallow would make you think it was over, especially if extreme oral care was maintained. ..With him, the infection was down his throat and would have taken the Doctor using instruments to see. He was put on Diflucan for months to clear it. I also want to add, he told me his tongue had the same sensation. I believe information and sharing is vital today, so it's why I'm sharing. ....Love and Hugs to you, MaryCarl and Dr. Jason

    Hey Brooke - thank you for the update. Glad you are better from flu. While I'm not a doctor, I can tell you that I DO have Fibromyalgia- symptoms of which started when I was in my 30's. Diagnosed by my regular GP about 20 years ago & I'm 65 now. I went through the stage in medicine where the doctors told you "it's in your head" or "that's not a real thing". I also have osteo-arthritus. Also almost died July 2021 battling the Delta -hospitalized 17 days, 15 of which were in ICU. It left me totally disabled. 2 1/2 yrs later I've learned to go with the flow & do what you can when you can - good days & bad days makes planning things almost impossible. I worked 45 years in the business world right up to getting the Delta. So I also understand how being down & unable can make you feel emotionally. Keep your faith close - whatever gives you strength. Your health may be kinda suckey for the rest of your life but hopefully you will adjust sooner rather than later. You're a very strong woman & I know you'll figure things out! I love you guys & all the babies ... the videos have helped me in some pretty dark times, so take care. I pray God blesses ya'll abundantly!

      Lupus itself can cause oral issues shows up like sjogrens. Don't know if it was ever ruled out. I often notice what looks like the butterfly rash on Brooke's cheek s and nose.

    Most autoimmune diseasees are diet related. Remove all seed oils and carbs (yes, even veggies and fruits), and eat meat and animal fats. Worked for me and thousands of others. What have you got to lose? Also, cheaper than meds and no side effects

      Sugar lobbyists are fighting tooth and nail o keep it and high fructose corn syrup in everything. Reason for increase in autoimmune diseases.

    Prayers Brooke. Fellow autoimmuner here. Sounds like candida in your mouth, which can happen when immunity is down. I currently have shingles in my mouth which does not include white spots in there. Just pain and numbness and wrinkled muscous membrames of mouth which makes this RN MSN think candida. Remember hi platelets may be secondary to the autoimmune dx not yet under control and nothing worse. 🙏🏻💕 Good to see you past the flu, up and about.

      @@mrscoghillfarm Have you considered going out of town to a larger city outside of Alabama such as NYC where we have larger hospitals such as NYU-Langone? They have shorter wait times. I'm asking because I also have an autoimmune disorder and under the care of a Rheumatologist and I have just finished cancer treatment this past Friday 02/09/2024. I will be following with my oncologist for bloodwork and post-teatment routine CT Scanning. I'm keeping you in thoughts and prayers and will pray they have a cancellation for your Rheumatology visit at the hospital in Alabama so you can get an earlier appointment than August, because that's so far out and with these health conditions, that wait times is quite stressful.

      In NC and MD it's just not certain specialists, it's also Primary Care Doctors. With the majority of PA's and NP's if you have a complex case or multiple issues, they can't handle that and need to be honest up front, not focus on 1 part to say this is reason for everything else when it's not true and not drag you along if they can't handle it.
      One of my favorite Dr's explained how PCP&specialists should work for you. Your PCP is the head coach of your football team and your specialists are other coaches in specialty areas of the team&other important members like their medical staff,trainers etc. I had a friend who went to a neurological pain specialist for help with severe pain thought to be from a car accident over 18 months ago. He sent her for urgent scans& tests. He got them bk 36hours later. The revealed major cardiac issues. He called every colleague he knew in complex cardiology and none of them had an opening. My friend needed help quickly. Dr wrote a personal appeal for her and sent it outside the state to major hospitals who were top in her issues. Two said they had nothing for 6-8 months. God bless Mayo! They would see her immediately. Lots of volunteers &non profit organizations helped get her to Mayo in the safest way possible, had a couple that she stayed with & took her to appts,saw her thru surgery,months of rehab and healing until she could return home to friends,family&volunteers that helped with things she couldn't do currently and those she would never be able to do again.

    I think you may have Thrush on your tongue. I had it after I had the flu a month ago. It makes your tongue white and feeling like it's burning. I'm not sure what causes it,but my youngest son had it when he was a baby and the Dr said it was from a dirty house, even though my home and your 's aren't dirty at all. I was a military wife and had just moved to Guantanamo Bay,Cuba . We had to live in temporary quarters which were old wooden houses and once I explained that the Dr calmed down after he read me the riot act for being a bad mother. I hope you can just ask your Dr and it will be a simple fix. I had to take Amoxicillin. Praying for you and your family ❤

    To Brooke: I understand many of your viewers are providing medical assistance per se. PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN to them. The reason I state this, is they are not physicians. And simply guessing, based off of what information, you have provided.
    I am a M.D. (surgeon), and I would never provide medical advisement to anyone...even a family member. I would need to conduct a thorough examination. As well as, run the proper test to understand. What the patient has. Then I could come up with a medical game plan.
    I'm not trying to be offensive to any of the viewers making suggestions. I know you want to help. But some of your suggestions could potentially cause difficulties. Just because someone you know had similar symptoms and conditions. Doesn't mean that is what Brooke has per se. Then no one knows if Brooke's medical history, which plays a very important role in how treatments are provided. Again, I don't mean to come off offensive..if I did. Then I do apologize for my actions. Just let Brooke continue to provide updates. And in time, she'll know what she's dealing with. At that time, Brooke and Jason will decide if they want to share the extent of her medical condition with all of us. Respectfully, Rick S., M.D.
