T., 20
After the last time you saw my son, when he was doing so very well, he hit a downer and really battled to come to terms with the world he inhabits - the fashion industry, the financial pressure, personality clashes with his partner...but he came through that remarkably well although at a cost to his already precarious health.
He had an appointment with a neurologist who passed him on to a specialist physician who diagnosed him as having Grave’s Disease, but the scan proved otherwise. Nevertheless he prescribed Neomercazole and insisted that T. take the full dose. Fortunately, T. used his common sense and only took half the dosage but even so his throat closed up, his blood pressure sky-rocketed, he couldn’t sleep, he couldn’t keep any food down, he became difficult to live with, his creativity flew out the window, and the Reiter’s Syndrome manifested alarmingly. I investigated the drug on the Web and together with A., we helped T. decide to stop taking it and now we have our him back, with his humour and creativity, warmth and cheerfulness.
He’s still battling to sleep and food is still a problem. The other problems are also still there - but there’s a vast change in him: he’s lost the constant referral to the past; he’s living right in the present moment, choosing to use what time he has left in as positive a way as possible.
