system: How often should I get a Pap smear now that I'm menopausal?
output: You have no history of a precancerous Pap test result, no HIV infection, no weakened immune system, and no history of in utero exposure to diethystilbestrol.
system: What symptoms should I look for between Pap smears?
output: When cancer is present in the cervix, the most common symptom is abnormal bleeding. Bleeding may start and stop between regular menstrual periods, or it may occur after sexual intercourse or douching (although douching is not recommended). Abnormal vaginal discharge is another symptom. Pain is NOT an early warning sign of the disease.
system: How can you help someone with Alzheimer's when you're far away?
output: Set up online payments to take care of your loved one's bills. Make sure a living will, health-care proxy, and power of attorney are in place. Keep on top of Medicaid, Medicare, or private insurance claims. Try to schedule visits every few weeks or months, and be on the lookout for any cognitive changes. Eventually, you may need to hire a full-time in-home aide or consider moving them into assisted living or a nursing home. Ask a neighbor or nearby friend to drop by often and give you an honest report of the quality of the care, too. Have your loved one give you written permission for their doctors to share medical information with you.
system: What signs can I check to see how much help my loved one with Alzheimerâs needs?
output: Are unopened bills piling up? Are they bathing, grooming, and dressing properly? Do they get lost while driving or walking outside of their home? If they're still living at home rather than in assisted care, use one of your visits to check for possible trouble spots in the house. Yes, that business is important, but you being there is also a chance to connect.
system: What do prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels indicate in the diagnosis for metastatic prostate cancer?
output: PSA is a protein made by the prostate gland. A rise in PSA is one of the first signs your cancer may be growing. But PSA levels can also be high without there being cancer, such as if you have an enlarged prostate or a prostate infection. If you've been treated, especially if a surgeon removed your prostate, your PSA levels should start to go down. Doctors usually wait several weeks after surgery before checking PSA levels. A rise in PSA after treatment may suggest the possibility cancer is back or spreading. In that case, your doctor may order the same tests used to diagnose the original cancer, including a CT scan, MRI, or bone scan. The radiotracer Axumin could be used along with a PET scan to help detect and localize any recurrent cancer. Though very rare, it's possible to have metastatic prostate cancer without a higher-than-normal PSA level.
system: What does it mean if you have locally advanced metastatic prostate cancer?
output: The goals of treatment are to: Manage symptoms Slow the rate your cancer grows Shrink the tumor Some cancers are called "locally advanced." That means the cancer has spread from the prostate to nearby tissue. It's not the same as metastatic cancer since it hasn't spread to other parts of your body. Many locally advanced prostate cancers can be cured.
system: What are the chances of developing metastatic prostate cancer?
output: About 50% of men diagnosed with local prostate cancer will get metastatic cancer during their lifetime. Finding cancer early and treating it can lower that rate. A small percentage of men aren't diagnosed with prostate cancer until it has become metastatic. Doctors can find out if it's metastatic cancer when they take a small sample of the tissue and study the cells.
system: How long does it take for prostate cancer to become metastatic?
output: If your prostate cancer spreads to other parts of your body, your doctor may tell you that it's "metastatic" or that your cancer has "metastasized." That means the cancer has spread from the prostate to nearby tissue.
system: If allergies are causing your dry eyes and other symptoms, what helps?
output: Wear sunglasses or glasses when you're outside. This will help keep pollen out of your eyes. Use special mattress covers on your bed to cut down on dust mites. Use a dehumidifier when humidity in your house is high to help cut down on mold. Wash your hands after you pet a dog or cat.
system: If allergies aren't the cause of your dry eyes, what's the treatment?
output: Your doctor may prescribe cyclosporine, which helps fight inflammation. Or she might change one of your prescriptions if your dry eye is a medication side effect. You can also ask your eye doctor if your contact lenses are the problem. You might need to try different lenses, or even stop wearing them completely. It's not likely, but your doctor may recommend a procedure that only takes a minute to plug the holes that allow tears to drain from the eyes to the nose.

output: Tears evaporate too fast. Your doctor may prescribe cyclosporine, which helps fight inflammation. Or she might change one of your prescriptions if your dry eye is a medication side effect.

output: Whether the problem is due to allergies or something else, there are treatments and simple changes in your lifestyle that you can make to feel, and look, better. You can also ask your eye doctor if your contact lenses are the problem. If you only have dry eye every now and then, or your symptoms are mild, you may be able to get some relief from simple remedies and from over-the-counter eye drops (often called âartificial tearsâ). In addition to over-the-counter artificial tears, decongestant eye drops may help. But if you have red eyes, you shouldn't take them for more than a week, as they can make the redness worse.
system: What can you do to ease your allergy symptoms if you have dry eyes?
output: Tears evaporate too fast. Allergies are one possible explanation. If you have allergies and dry eyes, and take antihistamines for the allergies, you may have to stop taking them, since antihistamines can make dry eye worse. Depending on what you're allergic to, you can take a variety of steps to ease your allergy symptoms (including dry eyes): Close windows in your house and car when pollen counts are high, and use air conditioning. Wear sunglasses or glasses when you're outside. This will help keep pollen out of your eyes. Use special mattress covers on your bed to cut down on dust mites. Use a dehumidifier when humidity in your house is high to help cut down on mold. Wash your hands after you pet a dog or cat.

output: Tears evaporate too fast. If you have dry eye without allergies, there are also treatments.
system: What are the risks of taking reishi mushroom?
output: Reishi mushroom has been used to help enhance the immune system, reduce stress, improve sleep, and lessen fatigue. Taking reishi mushroom may be riskier if you have low blood pressure or are taking therapy to raise your blood pressure, are taking diabetes medications, or have immune system disorders or medications. Higher doses of reishi mushroom might make bleeding more likely in people who have a very low platelet count. Also, avoid using reishi mushroom if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, because there hasn't been enough study on its safety in these circumstances.
system: How do you take reishi mushroom, and how much?
output: Reishi mushrooms are among several medicinal mushrooms that have been used for hundreds of years, mainly in Asian countries, for treatment of infections. Reishi mushroom has been used to help enhance the immune system, reduce stress, improve sleep, and lessen fatigue. Doses may depend upon factors that include: Your age Condition for which the mushroom is being prescribed Form of the mushroom Your overall health But each of these is a typical oral daily dose: 1.5 to 9 grams of crude dried mushroom 1 to 1.5 grams of reishi powder 1 milliliter of reishi solution (tincture) Reishi mushroom is cultivated and sold as a food, but it may be tough and bitter. When taken for health reasons, it is usually dried or taken as an extract, such as in the form of: Liquid Capsule Powder Side effects.

system: What happens during and after hair grafting?
output: In hair grafting, the dermatological surgeon first removes a portion of the hair-bearing scalp from the back of the head. Then, the surgeon cuts the removed scalp into small segments with varying amounts of hair in each graft, which, when transplanted into the balding area, produce a very subtle thickening and "natural" look. With each session, 50 or more hair-bearing segments are usually transplanted. " Donor" sites are closed with stitches, which usually are then concealed by the surrounding hair. After the grafting session is complete, the scalp will be cleaned then covered with gauze and, if necessary, a bandage. Stitches will come out approximately 10 days later.
