JACKPOT and the answer is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone,

 

Well as I told you all a few weeks ago my last neurologist gave up on me!  And he was bascily my last dr on the case, I have been working on finding other help but in the mean time I could not just sit back and wait.  I had to do something so I continued on my own research.  Admittidly I was obsseing over finding the answer myself!  I can not sit around waiting for the snow to melt and the city to open back up nor can I sit around waiting for 2 months for an apt!  Well yesterday I hit the JACKPOT I belive I have finaly connected all of the dots and have put in the phone calls to get the blood work and other testing done to conferm what I belive I have.  I ran it by my husband who usualy thinks I am nuts and so desperate for an answer I belive I have everything.  This time he belives I am on to something, everything fits and connects perfectly I have some blood work that is a few months old that matches the criteirea of this syndrome.  So without futher delay here we go on what I found....

 

Abdominal obesity (excessive fat tissue in and around the abdomen)

Atherogenic dyslipidemia (blood fat disorders — high triglycerides, low HDL cholesterol and high LDL cholesterol — that foster plaque buildups in artery walls)

Elevated blood pressure

Insulin resistance or glucose intolerance (the body can't properly use insulin or blood sugar)

Prothrombotic state (e.g., high fibrinogen or plasminogen activator inhibitor–1 in the blood)

Proinflammatory state (e.g., elevated C-reactive protein in the blood)

 

 

It is Classified as or Called Metabolic Syndrome.  The information I found yesterday did not include the last 2 things on the list but I had to stop to cook dinner shortly after finding this and didnt get back to the research yet.  So I will have to figure out what those last 2 things are.  But as for the rest I am over weight and mostly in my belly, hips and thighs, as for the cholesterol the recent blood work matches that, I have been being treated for high blood pressure for 7 years now and when we were trying to get pregnant I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrom (which has something to do with insulin resistance).  Some doctors call this prediabeties to make it be taken more seriously and as we all know diabeties is deffinatly linked to Neuropathy.  I am so anxious to find a dr that can help to confirm or dissmiss this possiblity because I really think that this might be the answer and If I can get this under control at the very least I will stop deteriating!!!!!!

 

Ok so heres the link to where I copied that information from so you all can read what you wish for yourself on your own time!!!!
