All the investiggation done was normal expect for mri brain which shows narrowing of corpus collusum and ceerebral atrophy. I dont know whaat to do. It is very traumatic for her to be poked 5-7 times each admission for IV line and regular blood monitoring <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hello, Yes, no doubt it's a troublesome condition, Some babies have cyclic vomiting without any abnormal reason.

<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a helpful assistant helping individuals with their medical queries <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> So to make this short and quick Im a 33 year old male who has been disabled by a loosely or undiagnosed condition, as I see it, including symptoms ranging from chronic neck pain, eye pain, muscle spasms, body wide muscle tension, neurologic abnormalities, cervical radiculopathy, fatigue, pain in lower back/coccyx, low testosterone, low vitamin D, osteophytes mainly in my cervical spine/lumbar spine, mild stenosis in cervical, many different blood work abnormalities(IGG IBB.... antibody, ACE high, low RBC, high rheum factor, etc. Ive been seeing my pain management dr. for about 1 1/2 years+ who is a nurse practitioner. She seems to know less about pain management than I have accumulated throughout my 3 years of debilitating pain, and treats me like Im a statistic. Ive never violated my pain contract in anyway and have passed all of my drug tests. Ive also given her permission to talk to my family, friends, girlfriend, doctors. Anyways, my question is when is it time to seek the care of a new pain doctor. Ive gotten every procedure that theyve suggested, continue to see a slew of dr.s trying to get a confirmed dx so that I can work at the core of the problem and not just the symptoms. I realize I forgot to mention my problem with her care. She has me on 75mcg fentanyl patch, which has been the only long acting medication that even keeps me moderately functional though she refuses to prescribe a short acting med for breakthrough pain. Shes been putting me on a wild goose chase where she tells me to do something like see a pain psychologist then tells me not to, then told me to see him again last week. I feel that my pain is the primary symptom that is keeping me from finishing my bachelors and being a more functional person. I dont want to be on opiates all my life but I believe that keeping me as functional as possible until I find out what is causing all of this is a lot better than not. Ive tried physical therapy, yoga, meditation, ice packs, heat, hot baths w/ magnesium, distraction, etc. and nothing else seems to help. My PCP, psychiatrist, and family all believe its a logical idea but she does not. There is a Dr. in charge of the pain center and the last ditch effort is to ask him to intervene but Im afraid of getting nowhere and if I have to find a new Dr. I know that many are reluctant to take on patients whove seen pain doctors in the past. I hope you may help steer me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

I would most likely start the treatment you suggest for congestive heart failure first. thanks for your time. Mary <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hello dear user! Thank you for sharing you concerns with us on Chat Doctor! Since you have been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and Hep B as well, you have to be in contact with your cardiologist and hepatologist continuously. They are conditions that must be taken under control any time, and treatments should be taken together. There is no reason to quit each of medication. The medication for the heart failure should be taken always, without stopping a day. It would be better if you consult your cardiologist to build up the proper scheme of your treatment because it will be a combined therapy and according to your cardiac function.

Depending upon the lab reference values, the level is most likely just minimally elevated and would not cause anything to be concerned about. Absolute white cell numbers are difficult to assess without the context of your total white count. Frequently, a minor cold or other viral infection can lead to a short-lived rise in platelets and different types of white blood cells. I agree with having your lab work redone, but I would not worry about the current numbers. <|eot_id|>

It healed in a bent position like a hammertoe. Now I am having a difficult time with swollen ankles and inflammed fat pad on both of my feet. I weigh 138 lbs. and am 5 1 . I have this foot pain flare up several times a year. I usually ice and take ibuprofen and in three or four days it settles down, but now for the past few months my feet have been very sore and the other day were so painful, I could not step. I have been icing for the past few days and feel someone better but fat pad still red and looks swollen. Could you please give me an idea of what I am dealing with. Thank you so much. <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough neuromuscular assessment is needed. As mentioned by you the brief history there are 3 possibilities coming in my mind for which a thorough neuromuscular assessment is needed. The first is a vascular insufficiency, the second is the increased uric acid levels and the third is the neuropathic pain.to rule out the factors here - performing a urine test will help us determine is the pain and swelling is because of the increased uric acid levels and by medication and physical therapy the pain and recurrence can be avoided. For ruling out the vascular insufficiency the Doppler test for both the Lowe limbs will be performed post which is the test is positive - rest, Medication and physical therapy will be advised for better results. You need to use even stockings of lower limbs to ensure the venous return. For the neuropathic pain, your blood glucose levels and MRI of lumbar spine will be guided. Post which based on the possible positive test the treatment will be planned. As due to aging factor - there is even a possibility of lower cardiac output and slower venous return can lead to swelling of ankles. Understanding that the body needs mobility more at this age to allow the venous return to occur and improve the metabolism as well. After a thorough assessment the root cause can be found and post which the treatment will be planned to avoid the future recurrence. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor. <|eot_id|>

Your skin tone is determined at the time of your birth itself, and it is decided by the concentration of melanocytes and circulation. Therefore, any treatment or procedures can never make you fairer than what you were at the time of birth. But most of the people will acquire more pigmentation as age increases, we call it facultative pigmentation. Lot of factors determine it, most important being sunlight, others include dust, pollution, smoking, less HY Chat Doctor. Treatments should be to bring your pigmented skin back to your normal skin tone and make the skin tone even all over the face. I would recommend you to use a face wash twice a day ideally a one containing glycolic acid as it helps in exfoliation and to even out the skin tone. The most important product will be a sunscreen. Half an hour before going out apply a sunscreen and reapply it every three to four hours. At night, you may apply a lightening cream containing comic acid over the face before going to sleep. You may consult a dermatologist practicing cosmetology for few sittings of chemical peels for faster improvement. Hope this helps. Take care. <|eot_id|>

Decay will get larger with time and can cause an infection. The spread of an infection can make other teeth hurt. All fillings will wear and decay can get underneath. Pressure sensitivity can indicate a problematic tooth. Infected teeth can rise and cause a change in how you bite. This could give you a headache. <|eot_id|>

Since its painkillers, these are not good for the pregnancy. Rather taking medicine for pain during pregnancy stick to hot water fermentation and peripartum exercises. This will help to reduce pain and no trouble to the baby as well. Also, as you had back and hip pain I think you have muscle weakness and needs to work out behind it to get it strengthened. If you are planning for a baby do peripartum exercises and not for now. As any abdominal exercises will have negative effects over the baby for now.

I am facing this from last one month.may be I have not noticed before. I am not facing any pain or other disturbances at the time. Is it common or anything to worry??I am 28 years old, unmarried man and I never had sex. thanks Jithu <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Degree understand your concerns went through your details. The white discharge you are talking about here is semen itself. Semen discharge through penis during bowel movement is quite common and there is nothing to worry about it. Your body produces semen whenever you are sexually aroused. Such produced semen will be stored inside your body, and it is a waste product. Body will try to clear it out of the body.

He doesn t seem to be feeling very well - possibly a low grade fever. Question an allergy bur concerned because of West Nile season etc <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hello, I appreciate your concern. What you are describing seems to be a form of allergy, called urticaria lesions which are raised and welt-like. A viral infection (in view of the fever) is the most likely cause. Others could be an allergic reaction to a new food or piece of clothing/bedding (as it is confined only to the shirt area) The rash with West Nile virus will be smaller spots and bumps, which appear after the fever settles, so you need not be concerned. I would suggest an anti-histamine to help with the rash and itching, it is important that you measure the temperature and give paracetamol if temp crosses 100 F. Hope he feels better soon! <|eot_id|>

When the antibiotic was completed? If painful, this can indicate infection/cellulitis there, necessitating another course of antibiotic.

Delayed periods with weak + ve pregnancy test (probably due to earlier testing)along with dizziness does suggest pregnancy. Still it needs to be confirmed. An uncontaminated urine sample (Collected in boiled bottle & without being polluted with vaginal/ urine infection). Gives confirmatory pregnancy test results after 8 days delay in normal periods.

You have star itching and burning. There may be redness. You have not mentioned for skin lesions. So, do not worry, you do not seem to have psoriasis. The disease may be either irritant or allergic contact dermatitis. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. Blood tests may be done to rule out DM, HIV,anemia, other blood or internal disease. Avoid suspected irritants or allergens like soap, dust,house dust mite, woollen clothes, grass particles, fume,deodorants, cosmetics.you may take antihistamines like levocetirizine to relieve itching. Steroids may be taken in tampering doses. Apply mild steroid cream on affected areas. I hope you may be alright in few weeks. Thanks. <|eot_id|>

I can understand your concern. In my opinion, you are mostly having HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) related symptoms because your symptoms worsen after eating. But better to rule out heart diseases first because you are having left sided chest pain. So get done ECG and 2d echo. If both are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. HERD is more likely in your case. It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause chest pain. So avoid stress and tension. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals. Start proton pump inhibitors and prokinetic Chat Doctor. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks. <|eot_id|>

The emergency contraceptive pill like Posit nor is up to 94% effective in preventing an unwanted pregnancy if it is taken within 72 hours following an unprotected sex. Its efficacy would be more if taken as early as possible following an unprotected sex. Pregnancy tests are done to tell if your urine or blood contains a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (Chat Doctor). This hormone is produced right after a fertilized egg attaches to the wall of a women uterus. Blood tests are more sensitive than urine tests and may detect pregnancy from about 6 to 8 days after ovulation. The home pregnancy test using an early morning urine sample can be undertaken about a week after missing a period. Hope these answer your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

With a history of cholecystectomy (gall bladder removal) 3 years back and suddenly having bloating and pain, you must get yourself evaluated for biliary obstruction possibly due to common bile duct stones, which needs to be ruled out firstly.

GUI will be done the next day. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test at home. You can try like that for 3 to 6 months. If it doesn't work then you can go for IVF.

I was wondering what could be the sighns of it whereing off? and if i were to keep it in and not get it taken out would it do anything? would it be bad to keep it in and get pregnent later on? one more thing so i got it in 2011 its 2014 and i never had a period on it but this last year i have been haveing periiods not light blood but dark and about a medium amount of blood is that a sighn its whereing out or is my body getting rid of old blood? pleas help me thanks <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hallow Dear, The life of the implant you are having in your arm is two years as your doctor has already informed you. You had put it in 2011. So its life has ended in 2013. It is not good to keep it in the body after it is no more active. When we say it is not active, we mean that the hormones released from the implant are not in sufficient quantity to prevent the pregnancy; however, it is not completely devoid of the hormones. The very fact that you have started having irregular bleeding, the implant is releasing the hormone erratically in low doses. You should get the implant removed and replace it with another one if you still want to continue with the contraception. With such extinct implant, you cannot plan your pregnancy appropriately either. I hope you got the message. <|eot_id|>

Pollen, hay, fodder, fumes, smoking 9 active or passive), sudden rise and fall of temperature, mite, pests (cockroaches) pets (cats and dogs in house) are certain predisposing factors for this type of allergy. Bronchoconstriction is the main cause of such symptoms. Take these measure :Wash all bed covers in hot cycle every week. Treat carpets with parricides or tannin acid clean upholstered furniture keep dust accumulating objects in dustbins vacuum cleaner Encase mattresses, pillows & quilts in covers (impermeable) Install Air conditioner or dehumidifier. When such patient visit my clinic I only prescribe them to take MONTELUKAST+ALBUTEROL tablet once or twice in day and I assure you your daughter will be alright within 3-4 days. Stop the medicine, once symptom free, restart when some problems. In my opinion no need of any tension. Hot coffee and steam inhalation also provide instant relief. Good luck. <|eot_id|>

Just today I took a shower and I noticed that I have an identical bite on my left side my testicles , almost simetrical. I don t know if this is a concern or anything. <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> HelloThanks for query. What you suspect to be mosquito bite are likely to be small sebaceous cysts over scrotal sac, The scrotal skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin. Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size or get infected. Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment.

Forum. You didn't mention the way of medical abortion as it was with the help of pills or D & C. Still feeling of the pain may be due to .1 Retained part of some placenta or piece of it. Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of uterus or physical examination by a gynecologist. As you mentioned that pain is mainly on the left side & also in thigh, so chances of retained portion may be there.2 The next possibility may be some injury on the left side. As you are complaining that pain is on the left side, so may be some injury to uterus or other parts on the left side. Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound and physical examination.3 As you mentioned that pain is so severe that it develop nausea i.e. So some sort of infection may be (septicemia). In my opinion consult a gynecologist and get his opinion. Good luck. <|eot_id|>

Some have been pretty bad but they are not really regular. If I get up and walk they get worse though. I am wondering if I should just go in or if its just braxton hicks. <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hallow Dear, You are carrying twin pregnancy. Twin pregnancy is prone for premature delivery due to overstretching of the uterus. However, 27 weeks gestation is too early for management of the premature child. The uterus is continuously contracting and relaxing throughout the pregnancy. You have very rightly mentioned them as Braxton Hicks contractions. However, Braxton Hicks contractions are never painful contractions. If you are getting pain also, they could be early labor contractions. Please report to the Obstetrician ASAP. You need to be on the bed and put on uterine relaxants like Albuterol and Rotational preparation like Austen for maintenance. Once the uterine contractions have subsided, then also you should continue to take bed rest. You have yet not completed 28 weeks. So the possibility of week mouth of the uterus (incompetent cervical internal OS) should be ruled out; though it usually does not cause painful uterine contractions for prolonged period. Incompetent internal OS needs cervical stitch for reinforcement which is removed just before delivery. I hope you will take quick action to report to the Obstetrician. <|eot_id|>

I have severe fibromyalgia could that be a cause? But I ve had that for years now and never had this problem. <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hello, Fibromyalgia cannot cause burning in the feet directly. Burning in the feet is directing us towards the uric acid issue. Which needs some attention and diagnostic test. If the test is negative then we may have to check for lumbar spine MRI and rule out the pathology associated. It can be due to high levels of uric acid or either its due to lumbar spine pathology.

(NZ Maori Female - Gabe) <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Hematoma is benign tumor of blood vessels. It can be seen in all organs like lungs, liver, kidney, spleen etc. but commonly seen in face and mouth. In lungs, this Hemangioma can cause arteriovenous shunting of blood. This means, Hematoma causes mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. So body will sense low oxygen and so increase respiratory rate to compensate. So Hematoma in lungs can cause breathlessness. So better to get done CT pulmonary angiography and if Hematomas are there then you will need surgical removal of these Hematomas. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further.

Dental pain surely annoys you. Reading your question, I guess you have a high carries index which is why the dentist has suggested you for a root canal treatment. There would be a deep cavity in your tooth which is why you feel the pain. I do not suspect any bone or neurological damage. Get your dental x-ray done and depending upon the depth of the cavity, the doctor would suggest you to go in for a simple filling or a root canal treatment. The earlier you visit a dentist, the better it is ! Hope this helps. Take good care <|eot_id|>

In my opinion the troubles you have may be caused by physical damage to your urinary ways. It is the trauma caused to these ways by the catheter during movement or traction. I think you should go to the doctor as soon as possible to have a physical examination, a routine blood test, a urinalysis and an abdominal ethnography. This situation may cause anemia or urinary infection. You may need change of the catheter or further examination by a urologist to find out the problem.In the meantime I would recommend you to avoid every movement of the catheter because it can cause further damage.

Such symptom does not have to be associated with your cancer. Hip pain, radiating to the testis can be simply caused by urinary tract infection, urinary tract stones, testis inflammation or prostate inflammation. If the pain has started after the surgery, some nerves in the operated area (quite common complication) could have gotten harmed. I suggest you to have urinalysis and testis inflammation first.

The SHE in the background would mean you are either on steroids or immunosuppressants and therefore fungal rhinosinusitis may require to be excluded. A CT Paranasal sinuses is recommended. The treatment would involve: long-acting oral antihistamines with fluticasone or mometasone nasal spray 2 sprays per nostril twice daily.

Depending on the number of cysts and the size, treatment is either medicines or surgery. A single large cyst more than cm may require surgery but smaller ones can be treated with OC pills. You should get a fresh scan and seek a second opinion for infertility treatment if you really want to conceive. <|eot_id|>

What will be your advice for me that i am always experiencing low potassium. I loss weight and when hypokalemia attacks me i felt temporary paralyze. Pls help me is there something wrong with my kidney. Is 94.70 cretinine is normal for me? Wat are the foods allowed for me? Thank you so much <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hi, Thanks for writing in. Low potassium or hypokalemia, especially if persistent, can induce a variety of changes in renal function, impairing tubular transport and possibly inducing chronic tubulointerstitial disease and cyst formation. Diet modification is recommended for you. High sodium intake tends to enhance renal potassium losses. Therefore, taking a low-sodium, high-potassium diet is best for you. Avoid extra salt in foods. Bananas, tomatoes, oranges, and peaches are high in potassium and can be included in your diet. <|eot_id|>

I have gone through your query,"limit" is the brand name of antifungal medicine terminating. Zimig is very effective for ringworm infection, We prescribe once daily or twice daily dose according to the severity of the infection. As you are having recurrence, you can go for twice daily dose. Use a topical antifungal cream along with the oral medicine. Clotrimazole is a commonly used for local application. Try this after having a word with your doctor. Hope it will work.

It seems your friend has got severe sun allergy. Ask him to stay indoors as far as possible. Do not apply any soap over affected area. Ask him to apply ice or cotton cloth soaked in water. Start applying a steroid cream like mometasone over affected area two to three times daily. You can also give him anti-allergic tablets like cetirizine at night. In case there is no improvement it will be better to consult a dermatologist. Hope this will solve your query. Take care. <|eot_id|>

Now for the past two weeks I have been having dizzy attacks and feel like I could actually pass out for a second or two. My B12 level was 278. Could this be the cause of my dizziness. I also have a headache when this occurs in the sinus area of my face. <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hello dear friend, I can sense that you are getting anxious about your vitamin B12 levels, but 278 is not low but within normal range(towards lower side but still above the defined limit for low levels as anything above 200 is normal). Even if low, it would have caused symptoms related to anemia(usually pallor, fatigue, palpitations,breathlessness) or neurological deficits like impaired joint position, inco-ordination of body parts, limb weakness or stiff legs. In my clinical experience of a few years, I have not encountered patients of B12 deficiency causing prominent leg pains or people getting episodes of dizziness due to vitamin B12 deficiency(dizziness although you may be a part of anemia sometimes). I would suggest you to go to a neurologist, and he will, after analyzing your history and examination, will tell you about the possible causes of dizziness in your case, which can be several otherwise, like postural hypotension, positional dizziness, some ear pathology and a few others. I hope it helps you. <|eot_id|>

Go for foreplay for some time before intercourse to excite sexually your partner so that there will be enough secretion of vaginal canal giving good lubricant.

I have had a question about this for quite a while now. Ive had this condition since I was younger but up until about my sixteenth birthday nobody had noticed it but me. My chest, at least the left side, is drastically more pushed out by the bone than then other side. every now and again it hurts but nothing so extreme that I cannot move or function.

So better to consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination of rib cage and spine. You will also need MRI of rib cage and spine. If this is suggestive of deformity then you will need surgical procedure to correct it. But if it is normal then nothing is needed. Apply warm water pad on affected areas and take painkiller like ibuprofen. Don't worry, you will be alright, consult orthopedic doctor and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query.

Inability to stand for long may not be related to other symptoms. Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you. Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at Chat Doctor. Wish you the best of the health ahead. Thank you & Regards. <|eot_id|>

Very low grade fever at the beginning of the cold, and now has Green eye bugers when he wakes up. His eyes are also watery and a bit puffy. No fever or other symptoms. Is this serious, or just a part of a cold and growing up. He is 2.4 years old, no other conditions. <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Eyes getting slight puffy is normally seen in some child Chat Doctor. As long as it subsides after a little while it's OK. Watering of the eyes with puffiness can happen if the child has hot some infection in the eyes. That is usually associated with redness of eyes. If you don't see that then nothing to worry. If the puffiness increases or is very prominent and lasts longer then he needs to be seen by a pediatrician. Hope this advice helped. Take care. <|eot_id|>

Will this fix on its own or is this something dangerous? <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you are having infection in your vagina. Positive findings for infection in your case are1. Whitish vaginal discharge2. Lower abdomen pain3. History of sexual intercourse. So get done clinical examination by gynecologist and start antibiotic. Also get done ultrasound examination of abdomen to rule out other causes. Genital hygiene is must. Chat Doctor. Avoid moisture in private part. <|eot_id|>

<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a helpful assistant helping individuals with their medical queries <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> Hello, I am 25 years old. I have a hard immovable lump behind my left ear equalling to the size of a golf ball. I have extreme short term memory loss and tingling of the nose, feet, and hands at times, also migraines that no medicine seems to work on. I m very irritable, and very short tempered. Some blacking out and light headed as well. Does this sound like a tumor or could it just be like a swollen lymph node? <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some enlarged lymph node or may have some tumor pathology. Your migraine and headache is not related to your lump mostly. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy to search the cause whether it is lymph node or some benign or malignant tumor. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health. <|eot_id|>
