Could a sharp pain on lower right side of abdomen be appendicitis?

Posted on by — 4 Comments ↓

Hi, I’m wondering about a very sharp lower right abdominal pain I experienced:

– Last night developed what felt like gas-related stomach pain on right side. Took 1 buscopan pill before dinner so I could eat
– 30 mins after dinner excruciating sharp pain on lower right side of abdomen took another buscopan and lay in agony until I fell asleep when pain became more moderate
– Today I woke up with no pain, but the lower right side is VERY SORE TO THE TOUCH. (so no internal pain, but there is an external soreness)
– Still have not gone to the toilet. Very bloated. No more stomach pain but just very sore to the touch on lower right side.

Could this be appendicitis? Should I see my local doctor? Thanks in advance.

I have had a cough for the last 5 months now, doctors don’t know why?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

I have had a cough for the last 5 months now. Had 10+ visits to yhe Gp being sent away with different answers from all of them.

All wrong answers I feel as clearly something is wrong

I get breathless really easily, which results in coughing, then vomiting from coughing there is often blood that comes up when I cough but no one is listening to me

One doctor did finally listen and got me an X-ray, however it didn’t show anything well nothing significant however i am still bad, it’s not just when I move around either although that makes it work I could just be sat there breath the wrong way, or yawn and it triggers a coughing fit

I have been referred somewhere but not sure what this is for or if it’s going to help I’ve really had enough and looking for some advice?

I am 65 years old with chronic prostatitis (since 1988) and a 5mm unobstructed kidney stone?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

I am 65 years old with chronic prostatitis (since 1988) and a 5mm unobstructed kidney stone. I have been taking 2 to 4 extra strength excedrin long term for pain relief not only for the prostatitis but for knee arthritis as well. I have had gross hematuria off and on over the last 5 years, but mostly only a trace +1 showing up on the urine dip stick test. The ct that I had showed only the kidney stone and a mildly enlarged prostate. The cysto that I had also showed normal. I do get some pain from time to time from the kidney area housing the stone. How much could the excedrin be contributing to the urine blood and what is the proper way to stop the excedrin? Thank you.

I had breast reduction surgery today, I had an episode of arrhythmia with my heart stopping?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

I had breast reduction surgery today. Under anesthesia I had an episode of arrhythmia with my heart stopping for a few seconds, prompting the anesthesiologist to tell the PS to wrap it up quickly. I have a 3 year history of palpitations (since I quit taking Klonopin) and last year an eco found an atrial septum aneurysm. The cardiologist gave me an ok for the breast reduction.
The anesthesiologist said I need to tell the cardiologist asap but i can’t reach him.

My dilemma? I’m afraid to go to sleep now. I’m actually afraid I’m going to die in my sleep. I haven’t slept since the surgery this AM because as soon as I start to fall asleep I feel palpitations and I wake up.

Am I right to be worried?

I recently had a case of Syphilis and was treated with 3 dozes of 2.4 million units of Benzathine Penicill?in

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

I recently had a case of Syphilis and was treated with 3 dozes of 2.4 million units of Benzathine Penicillin – I was diagnosed on August 9th and – and received 3 weekly shots on August 9th/ 16th and 22nd – my last shot was on August 22nd – I took a blood test on August 16th and as expected my ALT – AST – GGT and ALP levels were elevated significantly – I was given various medications for improving Liver Function by my general doctor and then 3 weeks later took another blood test – this time my ALT was .097 from 2.52 – my AST was now 0.56 from 1.09 3 weeks earlier and my GGT fell from 5.03 (3 weeks before) to 1.77 (still elevated but much better – and my ALP feel from 4.06 to 1.86 … So obviously the medicine was working and improving – however the reason I am writing is that on 8/16 my AMYLAZA level was 1.28 and when taken 9/7 (3 weeks later) had risen to 2.48 – and as well my LIPAZA level had risen from 0.39 on 8/16 to 2.10 on September 7th … I am concerned about the rise in those 2 enzymes and wanted think that this rise could be caused by the large amounts of Penicillin and have possible caused Pancreatitis ??? Or is this normal ??? That the Pancreas could be effected by Syphilis ??? Should I be concerned ? Are the numbers very elevated ??? I would appreciate any information you may provide …
