system: When should I tell my doctor about my drug allergies?
output: If you've had a life-threatening reaction to a medication, your doctor will just rule out that drug as a treatment option. These items could save your life in an emergency.
system: What changes in my sleeping schedule show I'm headed for menopause?
output: Waking up during the night or having trouble going to sleep can happen for lots of reasons, but if you don't typically have problems sleeping, it may be a sign you're approaching menopause. Sometimes it's caused by other menopausal symptoms like night sweats. If sleep problems hang on for a while, and you can't pinpoint why, it may be time to tell your doctor.
system: How can changes in my sex drive be a sign of menopause?
output: Some women say they are less interested in sex or have trouble getting aroused when they are in menopause. Other women say they enjoy sex more and feel freer because they don't have to worry about things like getting pregnant. During menopause, the skin around your vagina may become drier. This can make sex hurt. Gels called "personal lubricants" can help.
system: How can memory lapses be a sign of menopause?
output: Both men and women can have some minor memory lapses during middle age: not being able to think of a word or losing the car keys. Usually it's no big deal. Forgetfulness can stem from not only menopause but also from stress. If you're worried that you're forgetting too much, let your doctor know.
system: How do you know if I'm headed for menopause?
output: You may start to notice changes months or years before you are in menopause. You may have hot flashes and irregular periods. This time is called perimenopause. You won't know exactly when your menopause will hit. All you can do is pay attention to how you're feeling and notice changes. Keep in mind that symptoms vary greatly from woman to woman. Some women have no symptoms at all.
system: What changes in my body temperature show I'm headed for menopause?
output: Hot flashes can make you feel warm or hot suddenly for no apparent reason. Your skin may flush red and your heart may beat faster. Then you may feel suddenly cold. Night sweats are hot flashes that happen during sleep. They can be so intense they wake you up. Like so many symptoms of menopause, hot flashes and night sweats can vary a lot from woman to woman. They can last 1 minute or 5 minutes. They can be mild or severe. You can have several an hour, one a week, or never have them. For some women, these symptoms go on for years or decades after they've stopped their periods -- into the time called postmenopause. If you have hot flashes but aren't sure it's related to menopause, talk to your doctor. There are medical conditions and even medications that can bring them on, too.
system: What changes in my moods show I'm headed for menopause?
output: Some women may go through âthe changeâ earlier if they've had surgery to remove their uterus or ovaries or are having certain treatments for cancer. Whatever the reason, you deserve to feel good. If you've been down for more than a few weeks, tell your doctor. Together, you can decide on a treatment to help you feel better. Your body also might change so that you have more fat around the waist and more fat and less muscle in general.
system: What changes in my period show I'm headed for menopause?
output: You may have hot flashes and irregular periods. This time is called perimenopause. Your periods may come more often or less often, be heavier or lighter, or last longer or shorter than before. When you're in perimenopause, it can be hard to predict when, or if, your next period may come. It's also harder to gauge how long your period will last or if your flow will be heavy or light. It's harder to get pregnant during this phase, but it's still possible as long as you have periods. Some chemotherapy drugs used to treat cancer can also make your periods irregular. Any bleeding, even just spotting, after menopause isn't normal. You need to talk to your doctor.
system: How do I know if I'm in menopause?
output: Most women go through menopause in their 40s or 50s. One study found that half of the women in the U. S. reach menopause before about age 52. Some women may go through âthe changeâ earlier if they've had surgery to remove their uterus or ovaries or are having certain treatments for cancer. Your periods may come more often or less often, be heavier or lighter, or last longer or shorter than before. When you're in perimenopause, it can be hard to predict when, or if, your next period may come. It's harder to get pregnant during this phase, but it's still possible as long as you have periods. Any bleeding, even just spotting, after menopause isn't normal.
system: What physical changes show I'm headed for menopause?
output: Some women have no symptoms at all. During menopause, the skin around your vagina may become drier. Your body also might change so that you have more fat around the waist and more fat and less muscle in general. You may also find it a little harder to move, with stiff joints or joints that hurt. It's important to stay active. You may need to work harder to keep your strength and stay in shape.

You also should avoid the supplement if you have a sensitivity to phenylalanine or a condition in which your body can't break down phenylalanine. And use caution in taking phenylalanine if you have: High blood pressure Trouble sleeping Anxiety or other psychiatric problems Also, it is unknown whether this supplement is safe in women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
system: How much phenylalanine should you take?
output: Optimal doses of phenylalanine have not been set for any condition. Quality and active ingredients in supplements may vary widely from maker to maker. This makes it difficult to set a standard dose. However, commonly used dosages, depending on the condition, range from 150 mg to 5,000 mg daily.
system: What are possible interactions when taking phenylalanine?
output: People with certain conditions should avoid using this supplement, including those with Schizophrenia ( Tardive dyskinesia, a movement disorder, may develop.)

( An example is a long-standing, open wound that is deep enough to expose the bone to bacteria.)
system: What are common symptoms of cellulitis?
output: Cellulitis can appear on almost any part of the body. It usually shows up on damaged skin such as inflamed wounds, dirty cuts, and areas with poor circulation. It needs to be treated by a doctor. Common symptoms include: Redness Red streaking Swelling Warmth Pain or tenderness Leaking of yellow, clear fluid or pus Go to the emergency room if you have any of the following: High fever or chills Nausea and vomiting Enlarging or hardening of the reddened area Increased pain Numbness of the area when touched Other medical problems that may be affected by even a minor infection Your doctor will do a medical history and physical exam.
system: When should I contact my doctor about cellulitis?
output: Some injuries are at greater risk for cellulitis than others. Be sure to contact your doctor if you have: Animal or human bites Puncture wounds deeper than a half-inch, such as from stepping on a nail Crushed tissue that bleeds Burns that blister Frostbite Deep injuries with dirt in them Injuries that touch sea water (making them more prone to infection), especially if you have liver disease Diabetes or other significant medical conditions, such as liver or kidney disease Swelling in your arms and legs that does not go away Most people with cellulitis respond to the antibiotics in 2 to 3 days and begin to improve.
system: What exams and tests do doctors use to treat cellulitis?
output: Common symptoms include: Redness Red streaking Swelling Warmth Pain or tenderness Leaking of yellow, clear fluid or pus Go to the emergency room if you have any of the following: High fever or chills Nausea and vomiting Enlarging or hardening of the reddened area Increased pain Numbness of the area when touched Other medical problems that may be affected by even a minor infection Your doctor will do a medical history and physical exam. Additional procedures include: A blood test if the infection is suspected to have spread to your blood An X-ray if there's a foreign object in the skin or the bone underneath is possibly infected A culture. Your doctor will use a needle to draw fluid from the affected area and send it to the lab.

system: What is a brain scan for ADHD and is it safe for children?
output: Also, the FDA has approved the use of the Neuropsychiatric EEG- Based Assessment Aid ( NEBA) System, a noninvasive scan that measures theta and beta brain waves. The theta/beta ratio has been shown to be higher in children and adolescents with ADHD than in children without it. The scan, approved for use in those aged 6 to 17 years, is meant to be used as a part of a complete medical and psychological exam. It's possible that your child's behavior isn't related to a condition.
system: Can I go to my child's pediatrician if I think he or she has ADHD?
output: Although some pediatricians with special training in the disorder will diagnose ADHD in children, most will refer you and your child to a mental health professional such as a psychologist, psychiatrist, counselor, or social worker trained in diagnosing and treating the disorder. You can also find a professional who specializes in ADHD diagnosis through your health plan, your child's teacher or school counselor, other parents of children with ADHD, or nonprofit organizations such as Children and Adults with Attention- Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder ( CHADD).
system: Why would my child need to take tests and provide records for a ADHD diagnosis?
output: The evaluator will check on other possible causes of your child's behavior. To do this, they will check your child's medical and school records, and ask about what else is going on in your child's life. They may also give your child tests to determine if there might be a learning disorder or some other mental or emotional problem that may be causing the behaviors.
system: What might be asked of parents, teachers, or friends during my child's ADHD evaluation?
output: The evaluation may also include interviewing you, your child's teachers, and any other adults who are a big part of your child's life. The evaluator may also ask each of you to complete standardized forms, known as âbehavior rating scales,â to rate different aspects of your child's behavior. These scales may also be used later to track progress with treatment.
system: What are the first steps toward diagnosing ADHD?
output: The first step toward diagnosing ADHD should be a full physical exam by your child's pediatrician or family practitioner to rule out other medical causes for his or her behaviors. The physician, psychologist, or other mental health professional evaluating your child for ADHD will probably then set up an interview with you and two or more sessions with your child before making a final diagnosis.
system: How do I know if hyperactive, impulsive, or inattentive symptoms are normal or if my child has ADHD?
output: Although many children display some of the behaviors for ADHD, they do not necessarily have the disorder. An ADHD diagnosis requires that these behaviors have been persistent for at least 6 months, that some symptoms began before age 12, that symptoms are present in two or more settings (such as school and home), and that they significantly impair the child in at least two places (social life, school, etc.).
system: What are the signs of hyperactive and impulsive ADHD?
output: The person who evaluates your child will check on symptoms for each type: Hyperactive and Impulsive Often fidgets with or taps hands or feet, or squirms in seat. Often leaves seat in situations when remaining seated is expected. Often runs about or climbs in situations where it is not appropriate (adolescents or adults may be limited to feeling restless). Often blurts out an answer before a question has been completed. Often has trouble waiting his/her turn. Often interrupts or intrudes on others (e.g., butts into conversations or games) Inattentive Often fails to give close attention to details or makes careless mistakes in schoolwork, at work, or with other activities.
system: What causes ADHD symptoms if not a medical condition?
output: The evaluator will check on other possible causes of your child's behavior. If they've been through a major life change (such as a move or a divorce, for example), that might also be affecting their behavior. Figuring out what's going on is all part of the evaluation process.
system: Is there a test to show me that my Crohn's disease is in remission?
output: The Crohn's disease activity index ( CDAI) is one way to check. It measures 18 symptoms, including pain and diarrhea, and gives you a score. But this test isn't always accurate. Even though symptoms go away and you feel fine, you might still have inflammation that can cause a flare.
system: Will my diet change when putting my Crohn's disease into remission?
output: You may need to get foods in liquid form through a feeding tube or injected into your vein to help your bowels rest and heal. Your doctor will probably suggest a low-fiber diet to help you pass smaller stools and avoid a bowel blockage.
system: What level of medications will I be prescribed for my Crohn's disease to go into remission?
output: These include: Steroids like prednisone ( Deltasone) Drugs to slow down your immune system, like azathioprine ( Azasan and Imuran), cyclosporine ( Gengraf, Neoral, Restasis, and Sandimmune), mercaptopurine ( Purinethol and Purixan), or methotrexate ( Rasuvo and Trexall) TNF inhibitors like adalimumab ( Humira), certolizumab pegol ( Cimzia), or infliximab ( Remicade) and it's biosimilars, infliximab-abda ( Renflexis), Infliximab-dyyb ( Inflectra) Newer biologics like natalizumab ( Tysabri), ustekinumab ( Stelara), or vedolizumab ( Entyvio) Antibiotics like ciprofloxacin ( Cipro, Cetraxal, Ciloxan, and Proquin) or metronidazole ( Flagyl) You may start with mild drugs, then step up to stronger ones if you need them to get to remission. Or if your disease is severe, you could try strong drugs first, then move down to milder ones.
system: Will I need surgery in order to have my Crohn's disease go into remission?
output: Surgery. In addition to meds, up to half the people with Crohn's also need surgery. Your doctor will take out parts of your intestines where there's damage and reconnect the healthy areas.
system: What side effects can steroids cause while treating my Crohn's disease?
output: Your doctor will probably slowly cut down and stop them as you start other treatments.
system: When will I be able to see that the treatment for my Crohn's disease is working?
output: That means inflammation stops causing painful damage to your bowel and colon because your immune system is working like it should. But it could take up to 4 months to really get results.
system: Will my Crohn's disease symptoms go away?
output: It measures 18 symptoms, including pain and diarrhea, and gives you a score. This is called maintenance therapy.
system: What steps can help lower my risk for a Crohn's disease flare-up?
output: You can be in: Clinical remission: You have no symptoms. Eat healthy foods: Add these to your diet: Dairy products Fish Fruit Healthy fats (olive oil, non-hydrogenated nut/seed butters) Insoluble fiber (brown rice, whole wheat bread and pasta) Nuts and seeds Oats Poultry Soluble fiber (oats, psyllium, pulses) Whole foods Take these steps to help lower your risk of a Crohn's flare-up: Don't smoke, or get help to quit. Don't take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ( NSAIDs) like ibuprofen or aspirin for minor aches and pains. They can cause bleeding or ulcers in your gut. Don't take an antibiotic for an infection unless your gastroenterologist says it's OK. Keep up with doctor's appointments to make sure you have no signs of Crohn's coming back. Stay up to date with vaccinations or health screenings that your doctor suggests. If your insurance changes and you can't afford your maintenance drugs, let your doctor know right away.
system: What signs will I notice if my Crohn's disease is in remission?
output: Blood tests will show normal inflammation levels. Your Crohn's disease activity index ( CDAI) score may be below 150 -- more on this below. Lesions in your bowel or colon start to heal. You feel normal and have a good quality of life. Treatment makes it more likely that you'll go into remission and stay there.
system: What will my physical therapist ask me during my first visit for multiple sclerosis?
output: If your MS symptoms make it hard to do your job, your therapist can take you through some tests and document the kind of trouble you're having.
system: Can physical therapy help ease symptoms of multiple sclerosis?
output: If your MS symptoms make it hard to do your job, your therapist can take you through some tests and document the kind of trouble you're having.
system: When will I start working with a physical therapist to treat my multiple sclerosis?
output: You may start working with a physical therapist right after you get a diagnosis. You can schedule follow-up appointments with her when you need them. Some hospitals have physical therapists on staff who specialize in MS treatment. You will need to ask your doctor for a formal referral, but check with other people who have MS for suggestions on where to go in your area.
system: What ingredients are in dandruff shampoo?
output: Not all dandruff shampoos are alike. Some have different active ingredients, such as: Coal tar preparations ( Denorex Therapeutic Protection, Neutrogena T/ Gel, Scytera) Pyrithione zinc ( Selsun Blue for Itchy Dry Scalp, Neutrogena T/ Gel Daily Control Dandruff Shampoo, Head & Shoulders) Salicylic acid and sulfur ( Sebex, Sebulex) Salicylic acid ( Neutrogena T/ Sal ) Selenium sulfide ( Dandrex, Head & Shoulders Clinical Strength, Selsun) Ketoconazole ( Extina, Nizoral A- D, Xolegel) You may need to switch between types of shampoos if one type controls the dandruff at first but later loses its effectiveness.
system: When should I see a doctor about dandruff?
output: If you're still scratching and shedding after trying over-the-counter preparations, see your doctor. For really stubborn dandruff cases, you may need to use a prescription shampoo or topical medication.
system: How should I use dandruff shampoos?
output: When shampooing your hair, rub the shampoo into your scalp well. Leave the shampoo on your head for 5 minutes, or as directed, before you rinse. Rinse thoroughly. Any leftover shampoo may irritate your skin. Once your dandruff is under control, you may be able to use the dandruff shampoo less frequently.
system: How is dandruff treated?
output: Two of the quickest ways to get started are to brush your hair and try a dandruff shampoo. Brush your hair from your scalp down with steady, firm strokes. This will carry the oil from your scalp, where the buildup of oil and skin cells can cause dandruff, along the hair strands, where it will keep your hair shiny and healthy.
system: When should you call a doctor after a spinal tap?
output: Call your local doctor immediately if after a spinal tap: You notice any unusual drainage, including bloody discharge, at the puncture site You develop a fever Your headache persists Your pain symptoms worsen
system: What are side effects and risks of a spinal tap?
output: One test for epilepsy is a spinal tap (also called a lumbar puncture). Occasionally, a small blood vessel is pierced, causing bloody discharge. No treatment is needed. The procedure is usually not painful, but momentary twinges of pain may be felt if the needle brushes against nerve tissue. If you have a headache, lie down as much as possible and drink plenty of fluids.
system: How can radionuclide scanning help diagnose diseases of the digestive system?
output: In addition to showing the structure of an organ, radionuclide scanning allows the doctor to see how the organ is functioning. A diseased or poorly working organ will appear differently on the scan than will a healthy organ. The information from this test is valuable in diagnosing many diseases, including cancer. Because this test shows internal areas that are not visible on standard X-rays, radionuclide scanning can also help identify problems very early in the progression of a disease.
system: What do upper GI tests diagnose?
output: This upper GI test is used to diagnose: Hiatal hernias Ulcers Tumors Esophageal varices Obstruction or narrowing of the upper GI tract Lower GI tests or barium enemas are used to examine the large intestine and the rectum.
