How to overcome paget s disease?
Patient: My son is 40 years old and is having a sericous bone problem, He s having growth growing in his joints. His right wrist was cleaned twice in surgery and then the third time they removed the bone in his wrist. Now he has a growth in is elbow on the right side again. No one will tell him what it is or how or why it s happening? They just what to do surgery and leave it at that..Because he doesn t want surgery he wants to know what it is and how to fix it. He believes he has Paget s desease? is there any way you can help us..He has Delaware Physician Care insurance. He has several growth in his body and one is in his rib cage? He s having sever pain from all this and the Dr. won t give him even tylonal for the pain..Something is really wrong with the Doctors here in Delaware...They lost their passion for the patient and greed for the green. I m sorry but I don t have the money right now. I can t do anything til the first. I lost my husband a year ago this month and it s been hard..I m sorry for wasting your time.. Doctor: HiSome people suffer multiple exostosis for no specific reason known yet.All exostosis needn't be removed unless hurting,painful,overgrowing,interfering with movements and not responsive to pain meds,anti inflammatory drugs.Get serum calcium and vitaminD3 levels tested in blood.,if some results not in normal range may be supplemented.Also get parathyroid tests done, parathormone levels in blood at times are correlated with bone growth issues.hypercalcemia due to this is treated with biphosphonates like fosamax plus D once a weekSee a endocrinologist also
