25 Jan 11 - 02:06 PM (#3082226) Subject: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam I know I haven't been around much. Been quite out of sorts. Just found out today that my remaining daughter's (Hilary, age 25) autoimmune liver disease has flared big time. She has kidney stones and enlarged spleen as well. She has just moved to northern Virginia, started new job this past summer. She is quite worried about keeping the job (wage and sales commission) with her current health issues as well as making medical co-payments and paying rent which is quite dear in Northern Va. Does anyone know if there are charities or government benefits to help with this? I am terrified beyond words after losing her older sister to another autoimmune related illness and it makes it worse being stuck in the UK. Please add my Hilary to your good thoughts, prayer rounds. |

25 Jan 11 - 02:42 PM (#3082249) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: maeve Tamara, there is an assistance information service at the state level. have your daughter dial 211 to reach someone who should be able to direct her to appropriate help. Here's a link to the webpage: http://www.211virginia.org/211provider/consumer/index211.do On the left side of the linked page is a lighthouse logo. "For information on services for Seniors and Adults with Disabilities,click on the Easy Access logo." They may offer help too in the present situation. I don't know. Also, near the bottom of the linked page is a link to state Social Services, where she may be able to get some help. I'm far from Virginia. I hope some of this at least gives a starting point.

26 Jan 11 - 02:55 AM (#3082533) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam Thank you all for the good thoughts and helpful pms. It is impossible to bring her to UK. Unless I could support her completely including private health care. I cannot. The European Union rules do not extend to citizens of the US. She has a network of close friends and her darling boyfriend are helping er with driving her to appointments (she has no car). She has a fair few more appointments to attend. She has asked her father for help with either rent or insurance co pay. He has said they will cross that bridge when she comes to needing it, which means I will send her some money this week. If it comes to it, I will move back to US to take care of her. I have to go to work now (thank god for it keeps my mind occupied). Will return this evening with hopefully better news. I love you all.... Thank you again... keep goo thoughts going as I am afraid she will balk at the treatments for one reason or another. Pray for her strength to face these problems down. |

I'm in Virginia and as far as I know there isn't much to help people with medical problems and no (or not enough) insurance - unlike Massachusetts, for example, which does have a program. This organization might be of some help. Having had some (thankfully minor) medical issues recently, and now seeing the co-pays and portions the insurance didn't cover flooding in - it's discouraging. |

26 Jan 11 - 10:18 PM (#3083107) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: artbrooks I make absolutely no claims to be an expert, but there is a program that is already effective under the health care reform program for people with pre-existing conditions who cannot get health insurance.

28 Jan 11 - 10:20 AM (#3084062) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: Stilly River Sage I think between a family plan and pre-existing condition legislation, she should be able to get help.

28 Jan 11 - 04:12 PM (#3084271) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: Stilly River Sage Someone needs to coordinate the diagnostic work. I had some additional tests after the cancer surgery, based upon an observation the oncologist made. But he pointed out that the kidney he called attention to was out of his field (gynecology) so it was best if my GP coordinated the tests, and that's what he did, meeting with me to discuss results. Everything was fine, but it was good that the specialist said "there's something you might want to take a look at, on general principles." SRS |

29 Jan 11 - 08:22 AM (#3084613) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam Work scheduled her to work today, even though she explained she has appointment for more tests. Hil's employers are pressing her for details of her sickness. Virginia is an employment at will state, which means they can lay her off at any time for any reason. She is shaking in her shoes now, that she will lose her job. Friends have just bailed on taking her to MRI and blood tests to be done today, so she has to walk and take bus, feeling as bad as she does. I wish I was there. |

Maybe your daughter needs to sit down with the Human Resources head, explain the problem, and let them help her work out a solution. They may even be able to help her doctors coordinate tests so she loses a minimum of work time. Just a thought. I wish you both well. Mary |

29 Jan 11 - 05:37 PM (#3084892) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: Stilly River Sage Keeping her illness secret from her employers might mean they end up thinking she's absent for less than worth-while reasons. I suppose if they are pressing her, she should talk to them, but she should document everything they say and she says. She shouldn't be thrown under the bus just because she's ill, especially if some flexibility can help both the worker and the employer keep a good worker. SRS |

29 Jan 11 - 06:00 PM (#3084901) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam I think that she can say to her boss that she prefers to wait on the results of the tests and has appointment to talk to doc about them this Friday.

Richard - Even if we could get her here on technicality, I can't support her financially. I don't think she would submit to a move that far away from friends and boyfriend. Latests news - not much. She is very tired. Finding even taking a shower utterly exhausting. And I am very worried.

02 Feb 11 - 05:41 PM (#3087537) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam Right Patsy... She has shared her ER test results with employers who are all apparently behind her. She thinks it is because of how conscientious she is about work. She pushes herself to go in when she feels dreadful and they know it. The MRI results are back and have been forwarded to primary care doc who can't read them. So Hil has to wait to find out if she still has appointment on 16 Feb with gastro specialist, because she understood that he discharged her back to primary care after arranging MRI and blood tests. She is confused and too tired to deal with it. I am hoping her friends or boyfriend will step in to help her push for complete diagnosis and start of treatment. |

03 Feb 11 - 08:32 PM (#3088263) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: Ron Davies I know a woman who has an auto-immune disease. Seems to be genetically related. Her problem has to do with the back, not internal organs. At any rate, she has tried two drugs to combat it: Humira: administered by shot. Had no positive effect. But lots of negative ones. Specifically, since she already also has asthma, she developed pneumonia--double pneumonia in fact. An unavoidable side effect of these drugs is to lower your resistance to anything going around. Methotrexate: much, much better. Up to now (several months), no side effects. Also it's a pill, not a shot--easier to administer. If you'd like to PM me, Virginia, I can give you more details. But of course, as I said, her problem has to do with her back, so it may not be germane. Ron |

All it does is make me nauseated, causes my hair to fall out and get sores that won't heal on lower legs. Anyway. They treat autoimmune hepatitis (which is what we suspect Hil has) with high daily dose of prednisone eventually weaning down. Side effects not very nice for a young woman, which are weight gain and facial hair growth. Just wish they would get her sorted out and started on some treatment. Thanks all. Keep the thoughts going.

08 Feb 11 - 02:38 AM (#3090932) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam Not admitted to hospital. Given Vicodin for pain, a note to get off work and plan to have needle liver biopsy and endoscopy arranged per the way her insurance will cover it, which was not admission to hospital at which the specialist works. Doc says it is not the liver causing her pain. Endoscopy is to find out what else may be happening. She has constant nausea and pain. Work has all but threatened to fire her, so she is more stressed and in more pain than ever. Don't know whether to be relieved that hospital admission was not considered critical at this point or scared that insurance coverage may be impeding proper diagnosis and treatment. Thank you all for hanging in there with me. |

HR confirmed that she will probably be let go. That means her insurance goes. The pain in her left abdomen is so bad it makes her dizzy and she can't help moaning and crying. Pain killers (tylenol 3 and vicodin) only works for an hour then she has to wait for 3 or 4 hours before she can take again. Spleen is 18.5 cm which is pretty big considering it is only supposed to be the size of one's fist. She has tiny hands. They are planning ultrasound on gall bladder on 15th and she sees doc again on 23rd. |

10 Feb 11 - 03:09 PM (#3092650) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam From MRI Spleen: is significantly enlarged measuring 18.5 in AP dimension. Few splenorenal collateral vessels are also noted in the left retroperitoneum Gallbladder: Sludge is contained within otherwise unremarkable appearing gallblader there is no evidence of intraheptic extraheptic biliary ductal dilation to suggest obstructive cholangiopathy Pancreas: normal Liver: There is atrophy of the right heptic lobe with compensatory hypertrophy of the left heptic lobe. There are features of advanced portal hypertension which include dilation of the intraheptic portal veins 1.9cm main portal vien 1.7 cm and splenic vien 1.5 cm there is recanalization of the umbillical vein as well. She got the appointment to see liver specialist moved to the day after the gallbladder test on 16. They have doubled her dose of pain killers which is really fogging her brain. Chatting to her on facebook takes some thinking on my part. Almost like she is talking sideways in a Yoda esque way. Well that is how the messages come out. She exhausted herself making the bed. Can't face taking shower and prettying up for boyfriend. I told her just take the shower and then a nap. You don't have to fix hair and do make up when you are sick. She said she is so white. As white as her moonstone ring and has to put some makeup on for colour. She can still only manage a couple of bites of food and then the nausea takes over. Pain is when she sits too long and when she moves even a little. Weird cravings for chocolate and garlic. (No she is not pregnant) and uncontrollable anger and frustration. Boyfriend on way to spend this evening and tomorrow with her. I am grateful for a young man named Galen. I call him Angel and told him the letters of his name rearranged perfectly. |

Don't know if that is happening with next appointments. He does have classes to attend. The gall bladder test is radioactive chem injected into vein and look to see if it gets through the gall bladder in the next hour. If nothing shows by the end of 4 hours they are dealing with an obstruction. That test is tomorrow and liver specialist day after to discuss result. |

16 Feb 11 - 08:54 AM (#3096416) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: Maryrrf Congratulations to your daughter and her fiance - I have to admit that possible insurance coverage was my first thought too. If he works for a company that offers insurance, he might be able to put her on the policy? I hate it that we have to think that way in this country, but getting good insurance is so tied to having a job that offers it. As an individual with a preexisting conditions one's options are very limited. Good luck to the couple. |

16 Feb 11 - 11:45 AM (#3096534) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam No such luck on his insurance. He is buying his own which is quite expensive for a single person. Personal reasons and it is necessary. His work (major department store) does not offer health insurance to the plebes. Her room mate is looking to bail out on the shared apartment because she thinks Hilary is going to lose her job. So much for friends, eh? I can cover Hil's rent for next 2 months if it comes to it. Hopefully by then she will be treated and feeling better and able to get old job back or better a new one nearer to the fiance. needless to say the worry is taking it's toll on me too. the RA is worse than ever. I used both wrist supports and walking sticks to get to my RA appointment today. Nurse says i have to come off the blood pressure meds as the swelling it is doing to my feet and ankles is making things worse. Please keep the mudcat mojo working on her (and me). |

20 Feb 11 - 11:32 AM (#3099104) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam I don't know whether to be angry or relieved or frustrated. Bit of a mix, I think. Hil had an infection in navel that caused fluid build up in abdomen. Why they didn't catch this and start treating right away, I don't know. Anyway she has been on antibiotics since Wednesday and she feels so much better. Aggravating thing is when it all kicked off, she thought she had kidney infection and Primary Care doc gave her antibiotic. When the urine and bloods came back they said not kidney infection. Assuming (rightly) kidney stones, Doc took her off antibiotics and made appt for gastro. In the meantime, Hil became so ill with pain she went to ER where they decided, chronic liver disease, enlarged spleen and smattering of tiny kidney stones. Later MRI revealed distended navel (internal) and confirmed the other stuff as well as sludge in gall bladder. The gall bladder scan last Tuesday showed it normal. So why when she had the MRI a couple of weeks ago, didn't they put her on antibiotics for the infection in her navel? I guess when you are in pain or a mom worrying about your child's health days feel like weeks even months. It is the only time that time slows down. They are still going to do liver biopsy, which is good. Then hopefully start correct treatment which I expect will be normal treatment for autoimmune liver disease. Steroids in high doses. BTW... my research found that the distended and infected navel can be a knock on from the other gastro problems. Starts with liver, then kidneys and spleen are involved, etc. and so on. The best news is she feels so much better. She can eat, coping with much less pain killer, has more energy and can concentrate. Back to work on Monday and out looking at wedding stuff with Galen and his mom today. I want to be there. |

Still no treatment forthcoming, because they don't know if it is autoimmune or fatty liver disease. Doesn't seem to matter that when she was 14, the biopsy said it was autoimmune liver disease. She has a plan to join the credit union Galen's mom uses and save $300.00 every month for next 2 years to pay for wedding. |

22 Apr 11 - 01:27 PM (#3140442) Subject: RE: BS: VirginiaTam's daughter - health prob From: VirginiaTam Results from liver biopsy paraphrased from her facebook. "Chronic hepatitis (probably auto immune) and incomplete cirrhosis, which I looked up. Not too bad at least it doesn't cause liver failure. And now to start taking fun litte meds.... azathioprine." She is feeling much better (physically) since the antibiotic, though still having bouts of the blues which she can not attribute to anything. She just suddenly gets low (sometimes angry) and has to wait for it to pass. She is saving for both a car and the wedding now and looking into different kind of work. Medical collections is quite the soul destroyer. I suspect this might account for a lot of low (and angry) periods. Thank you all for keeping her in your thoughts. Want to say, I so appreciate that I am able to vent my anxiety here and feel the love as you drop your good wishes in the thread. This is especially important to me, because I am so far from her and from my own family. |
