I’m having a problem with my sinuses, major headaches and nose bleeds?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

Hi I’m having a problem with my sinuses and major headaches and also occasional nose bleeds. Sometimes i get pressure on the right side of my nose and the pain causes the right side of my face to swell and my teeth to hurt where i can not even close my mouth. Then with the headaches i take medicines but it might soothe it for like 1hr and come right back 10x harder, also with the nose bleeds it can happen depending on the severity of my headaches. Maybe you can help me. Thank you and have a blessed day.

I have ED issues and experience pain during orgasm?

Posted on by — 2 Comments ↓

I have ED issues, cannot get fully erect.
I have blood pressure issues and m on medication for it but I slowly started having erection issues. before I was on the medication.

I can come to an orgasm of sorts but when I do I have pain in my inner thighs at the time of orgasm.
The pain goes away in a second or 2.

Is there anything I can do or a medication available to help with the pain at orgasm?
As far as the ED I have tried the common pills from my doctor, viagra, cilalis, etc they works somewhat at first but got to where they no longer do. If there is a treatment for that I would be happy but at the least I would like to not have pain at orgasm.
I eject no semen by the way, Is it “going the wrong way”?

How often can I take Lantus?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

How often can I take Lantus? My prescription says take at night. BS last night was 445. Took 100 units and is 330 this morning. Can I take it more than once per day to lower my BS? Can I take more this morning? I have not been taking Lantus regularly as I should have been. I’m now back on a low carb regime after having been negligent for some weeks.

I did a home dipstick urinalysis test, should I be worried about the results?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

Hello, i did a home dipstick urinalysis test and i have trace of leukocytes, trace of protein, high specific gravity and trace of glucose. Just wondering what this means? I’m pretty sure I have a uti as I am feeling nauseated and have temperatures and my asthma has been playing up.
I’m a bit worried about the glucose being in my urine though.

Mononucleosis Test shows EBNA antibodies, is it mono or some other infection?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

Earlier this week, I went to the doctor for a sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue. The monospot test came back negative. The EBV test came back as positive for VCA-IgG (57.4), positive for VCA-IgM (44.4),negative for EARLY AG (<5),and positive for EBNA (217). My doctor thinks that I am experiencing an acute infection of mono that I was recently infected with since I was positive for the IgM antibody, however, EBNA antibodies are not supposed to appear during an acute infection and actually arent supposed to show up until months after… Could this mean it was a previous mono infection that has been reactivated? Could the presence of IgM antibodies indicate some other viral infection or disease other than mono?

I failed a drug test, what drugs can cause this?

Posted on by — 4 Comments ↓

I recently had a drug screen from a lab and I failed to my surprise for methamphetamine.
My doctor stated that only five things that I could have ingested could cause a faulty positive. Could you please tell me what could be? I am on a number of medications for migraine relief, I am not sure why this has happened.

Woke up with severe pain in my elbow area, I had a deer tick, please advise?

Posted on by — 4 Comments ↓

Woke up this morning with severe pain in my elbow area, when I looked, I had a deer tick (yes I am quite sure it was a deer tick) so I removed it but the area is red, swollen, and a burning pain which has persisted now for 3 hours +. I washed the area well, applied triple antibiotic ointment but just wondering if I need to do anything further. The tick was NOT engorged and had probably only been on me for no more than 8 hours as it was not there when I went to bed the previous night.

I have a yeast and bacterial infection, now have a strange discharge?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

Hi
I have a yeast and bacterial infection. My doctor prescribed me to take fluconazole orally for the yeast 3 times every 7 days and the bacterial infection with the metronidazole vaginal gel. My doctor wanted me to cure both at the same time. So they told me to do the cream and the oral pill until I finished. I finished the 5 days of the vaginal gel for bacteria and the first pill of yeast. I noticed I have a white clumpy substances coming out of my vagina. I feel more itchy But there is no odor at all and when I get yeast infections I never usually get a cottage cheesy discharge many people get. Is this normal? My doctor told me I was supposed to feel better by a week and the 5 days have passed. I just don’t understand why I have a strange discharge I never had before. Bacterial and yeast infections are common for me so I’ve started to take probiotics. But is the discharge normal from the medicine? Or it a bad side effect ? How long till I am free from this ?
