I've been considering whether I should focus on mast cell conditions rather than hppd? I can relate more to mast cell conditions but still can't find the connection 

I learned a lot from this

Wow

Thanks 

Are hppd survivors more prone to have gotten hppd as a result of suffering from preexisting mast cell issues or can mast cell issues cause hppd? I can relate to most of this... Maybe they can aggravate each other?

I posted this in a few places today and wanted to start a new topic anyway...

I am scheduling a colonoscopy and they use propofol to sedate patients, but not entirety unconscious.  I've studied that this drug can cause hallucinations so I'm very concerned because I'm so sensitive I can't even be around second hand cannabis smoke without feeling horrible, it even can raise my blood pressure. I'm also not sure if I even have a typical HPPD condition because of my unusual symptoms and lack of professional care. But I'm now wondering if propofol is not only safe but could actually help me improve?

The ER doctor prescribed me hydroxizine and I took 25 mg got to nap for an hour, which was a relief, but the muscle spasms were terrible for an hour after that

Jay and Ak, please read

I'm tripping 24/7 and most of the time it's like I'm trapped in a bad trip

The bad trip is triggering debilitating panic attacks similarly if I'm on shrooms and paranoid and anxious but they come so often and heavily that I can't recover fast enough before the next episode, which is typically when I wake up and only able to sleep for twenty to sixty minutes at a time, sometimes over a few hours but only to wake up shaking and terrified 

On another online forum, there are others with HPPD who suffer with similar mental disorders and experience a similar hell

If this isn't a form of HPPD, what is it? I've already spoken to two specialists who haven't told me they disagree with my self diagnosis 

I'd like more ideas please

what are your symptoms

Thanks Jay 

I replied to Ak shay with my previous symptoms and need to add a few more...

If I go outside in the heat my face burns like a bad sunburn, recently other things have triggered this like certain foods... since last week I've had sexual dysfunction and more absent minded 

It's been suggested to stop cannabis but a few hits once or twice a night actually helps with some of the twitching and maybe insomnia and racing thoughts however it makes me trip and tinnitus 

Since the 8th I've felt numbness and Tingling and pressure in my frontal lobe and dizzying and took an ibuprofen yesterday to test

Just visual hallucinations isn't hppd . Can you tell us more about your visual issues ?

Visual stuff isn't much of an issue...

Here's most of what I came up with Saturday at the emergency room...

Severe depression 
Panic attacks 
Trouble sleeping 

Fatigue 

Loss of appetite 

Jaw paralysis 

Cold numbness hands feet

Heart palpitations 
Irregular heartbeat 

Blood pressure changes 

Muscle spasms 
Tremors 

Upset stomach 

Shortness of breath 

Thirsty often 

Rapid urination 

Unable to retain fluids 

Dizziness 

Foggy thinking 

Light headed

Tingling in lower left side

Recovering from passing out last June 

To zolaft or not to zolaft? That's my biggest dilemma 

I've been back on 50mg the last 2 months and dealing with extreme bouts of depression since I got hppd 

I want to discontinue but afraid of losing control 

Self diagnosed two days ago and I'm wondering about doing a body cleanse and detox 

Been suffering for a week

Any risks or ideas?

Thanks for the views 

I'd really like to make a friend 

I don't have anyone I can talk to

I'm Roman and almost 50 years old 

I'm disabled diagnosed with bipolar with psychotic features, severe panic attacks, and other disorders 

I live alone and have absolutely no support system although I've done everything I can to get help 

I tried to go to the emergency room twice recently with no treatment 

My doctor gave up on me after tests including a brain MRI

My symptoms aren't so much visual hallucinations although some of that persists, however the things I've suffered from this past week are agonizing and can't find much to alleviate the daily symptoms 

It's been a living hell, with the occasional times where the extreme nightmare experience seems to go away for minutes, sometimes a few hours at a time, but there's always some kind of symptom combination every waking hour

I'm willing to go into more detail and need answers, ideas, and most importantly, a reason to keep fighting for my life
