low O2 nausea, diamox, ventilator

[ill13632]

I've been feeling nauseous a lot after my liver damage after the tracheotomy.  I had to lie down even though I took bentyl, nexium and ondanestron and it didn't help.  then I felt better after taking some oxygen on the ventilator.  last night I slept with a low ventilator setting with diamox and klonopin so maybe that's the reason?  it's so bad I can't work or study.  my blood pressure's probably low since I've been on losartan and flomax  
I walk half a block and feel like my throat closes up and my lungs are burning

well I take dulera/singulair and still can't exhale, even prednisone doesn't help that and can't speak in sentences.  it was a couple of months after 6weeks of azithromycin

Sounds like you are having a variety of miserable experiences.  The first step should be an objective “sorting-out” of causes and effects; how bad (if at all) is your liver function?  Your lung function? Your brain or emotional function.  If there is more than one cause of your multiple symptoms, are they related?  What I am saying is that you need to work with someone trained to uncover objective evidence of what is actually going on in your body; a person endowed with the ability to find causes and then treat them – your doctor.  You will never be able to do this on your own and, when you can’t, you will worry even more and that will worsen your symptoms.

Another possibility is that you may be overmedicated, rather than diseased.  Or both.

The best advice I can give you is that you put aside any preconceived notions about your condition and seek medical care, without further delay.

Good luck

maybe it's food poisoning from eating 5 day old frozen ground beef.
