Q: MS, Gatric-Bypass, Hypoglycemia, Adrenal Tumor & Hypothyroid

Could the all the above problems be related to MS? I have been to many doctors and they all say the same thing. 'There is something wrong, we just don't know what it is'.

I had gastric bypass in December of 2006, I had my gall bladder and a 4 centimeter adrenal tumor and my left adrenal glad removed in October of 2007.

I have had hypothyroidism for about 10 years. Since my bypass, I have had hypoglysemic episodes on a regular basis. (three-four times a week anywhere from 29-59).

Since my bypass I have had 3 episodes of passing out, disorientation, slurred speach or the ability to speak at all and the ability to move my limbs. Once I get to the ER, they can not find anything wrong. Within a couple of hours it seems like I am fine, but are totally worn out from the episode and literally crash for hours. When I wake up I feel like I've been drinking heavily and have a hang over.

I have a headache most of the time, and I recently had an MRI with contrast and the radiology report came back as possible MS. I have tingling in my arms and legs, and a feeling that rain drops are hitting my skin to which the doctor mentioned TaTa hallucinations. (whatever those may be)

I also have irregular bowel movements because I either can't go at all or have 'explosive' diarreah. Or feel like I need to go, but can't.

I am just wondering if any of these diseases can be linked. Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.

thanks, Daron

Since my bypass, I have had hypoglysemic episodes on a regular basis. (three-four times a week anywhere from 29-59). I take a ton of vitamin supplements and have blood work done on a regular basis & all my counts are well within range.

HEY Daron, just thought what is the treatment for the fact that you only have one? adrenal gland? i would imagine stress would be bad for this or do you have some form of cortasone medication what happens if you have a stressful situation & your body cant produce enough cortasone wouldn't that make you dizzy or maybe pass out & if you have hypo thyroidism & are hypoglysemic this seems to add up also has anyone mentioned reverse t3 dominance. this will be a hard one to get most doctors to test for as they don't understand how it works i diagnosed myself for this & had it confirmed by blood tests & a good authomolecular nutritionists. rt3 stops us from moving from a hypothyroid state to a balanced state.It is also caused by adrenal fatigue or deficiency which could be why you experience what you do. If you what to chat or if i can help at all please feel welcome to reply or send a private message. To do this click my 8 ball picture & send a message on the next page that shows.
