For those of you who have been on Toprol XL or are currently...HAVE YOU EVER EXPERIENCED ITCHING? At night my legs get extremely itchy and sometimes my arms, too. In the morning I get itchy as well. I've had this problem for a long time and just recently thought it could be caused by the Toprol (I was re-reading its side effects and itching is one). Unfortunately, I've been on the Toprol for years and have been itching regularly like this for years so I don't know if it all started about the...

A big germ factory no matter how much dissefecting we try to do) well. Friday night my throught stated getting sore. I thought, great another cold. Saturday I work up feeling awfu...

This might sound a bit crazy, but, I know we have some game playing people on here. I bought an X Box 360 and was wondering if anyone here has XBox Live and would like to play some time. I just have a couple of games like; Halo 3 and Virtua Tennis 3. If your interested in playing with me or others, lets get together. Future games I'm buying; Tiger Woods 2008. I hope this doesn't sound too young for some of you. I'm just trying to get closer to all my pacing buddies here at the Club. God b...
exhaustion & sleep apnea

I had a medtronic pacemaker installed about 2 years ago for SSS. Within weeks following I felt an increased level of exhaustion. In bringing it up to my doctor he felt it was depression and started me on effexor. That didn't help and the exhaustion continued to the point that I'd become practically dysfunctional in my job...memory loss, lack of concentration, no enthusiasm. I brought myself off the effexor last summer and with continued complaints to the doctor about listlessness, was given a te...

Hi Pacers
My husband and I and the dog, Monni(cocker spaniel) are embarking on a round Australia trip in April, by car. Taking us where we fancy. We desperately need a break from the stress we have encountered over the last few years. Our first stop will be with Rewired Aussie. I was wondering if there are any other Aussies out there who belong to this club. I would love to meet you for a cuppa at your local bakery or such in your town as I pass through. It will give me great co...
