I have had lumps and white discoloration on my tongue for about 2 months now I have been given chest x-rays with nothing showing up, along with occasionally coughing up fresh red blood. I have not had any fever that i know of or pain just soar. I have no idea where to go from here.
I am (suffering) pain on left side of my chest
Hello. I have been suffering from prostatitis with many symptoms (painful urination and after urination, sometimes painful ejaculation, right testicle pain, genital tenderness…). I have done many exams such as urine test, blood tests, semen tests, prostatic fluids exam after prostatitc massage. I have been on various antibiotics for various duration, but condition never gets really better. I did last week new prostatic fluid exam and the results are presence of pseudomonas fluorescens. My doctor here in Japan says that it is present is all people and therefore not the cause of my pain. He doesnt prescribe me antibiotics but since I have bacteria which has been cultured, I wonder why I dont get antibiotics medication. I read that this bacteria is mild and not very harmful but also quite resistant to antibiotics. Every urine test comes back negative with no infection and semen testing doesnt show bacteria either, only the expressed prostatic fluids come to the conclusion of this Pseudomonas Fluorescens. Your advice would be really helpful, thank you !
Here’s when it all started. I was 14 years old and I noticed millions of red spots all over my legs from the knees down. Me and my mom were worried on what it was so we went to the ER and they said possibly it was henoch schonlein purpura but they didn’t diagnosis me with it. I am now 18 years old and they still haven’t gone away. One doctor told me it would go away on its own so it did a week later and then another week passes by and then they come back. I get bad joint pain in my ankles and knees I’ve only gotten the rash from my knees down and I get stomach pain and just recently I noticed blood in my urine. The picture I have uploaded it 3-4 days after they have shown up on my legs they get blood red.
I’m 31. Have had 3 children, youngest turns 5 soon. Diagnosed with UC mild to moderate in Dec, been in flare since June before diagnosis. Have had cartilage removed from right hip due to severe labral tears in 2009, 2 surgical screws in greater tronchanter region from that surgery. Currently taking pentasa 500mgx4 daily, buscopan 10mg as needed, ketorolac tromethamine if needed only after meals, cloxcillan (can’t remember name) antibiotic for mastitis 4x daily 2nd week ends this Friday. Prednisone 30mg daily started yesterday and tapering by 10mg weekly until finished. Probiotic daily.
While in hospital end of August when I had my colonoscopy and was later diagnosed with UC, I developed an swelling/growth around the vagina entrance that stretches up to and partially around my urethra. It is not as bortholin gland cyst as I have had them before and this does not affect the labia or move inside my vagina as I found out after a Pap smear which came back clear. There is no pain, itching, tenderness or smell. There is however redness and my vaginal discharge had changed to a permanent clear stretchy kind like you get when ovulating but no smell or colour. Antifungal and steroidal creams done nothing and while on prednisone no change as have had it before.
My mother who is 67 years old has had a surgery to remove a tumor which was called desmoid tumor. Resection margin are free. No other remarkable changes could be detected according to the pathology report.
Most likely there is no families fap.
Please I want to know how dangerous it is on health and life considering its size, place and my mother’s age. And the chance of having fap considering her age and the place of the tumor (abdominal wall)
Pathology report:
Gross :excision biopsy of soft tissue specimen 5×4 cm showing firm pale whitish mass 2×2 cm measuring 2 cm from nearest margin.
Microscopic: examination reveals infiltrative fibromatosis, consisting of interlacing spindle cell bundles, separated by collagenous stroma with mild cellular pleomorphism. Mitosis is not a marked feature. Some lymphocytic infiltration are seen. Besides blood vessels are well formed. Resection margin are free. No other remarkable changes could be detected.
Conclusion :desmoid tumor – infiltrative fibromatosis
Resection margin are free
I recently have been having a lot of diarrhea and has.causing me to wipe a lot for several days. I started to feel a burn in my anal area which I assumed was from wiping so much. But then I felt these bumps so now I’m worried. I think they were once filled with clear fluid and then popped (so the picture was taken after being popped) and there’s also more bumps than shown in the picture on the outside.
I’m a 44 year old male never smoked or tasted alcohol in my life,a few pounds over weight but only around 20 but I can lose that with 3 months working out. Good health never any problems at all go to family doc.1 time a year for the common cold is all.
Over the past 4 months I feel like doing nothing, no energy, no drive, I also feel down, and just like crawling in a ball and crying. I’ve never been a depressed person, but I fill depressed. And no energy to work out.
I’m a business owner and just took on another addition to my business and thing I have so much to do it might be the stress over loading on me. Then I read a bit and see a mans testosterone drops at my age.
Any advise?
Thank you!
Male, 68. Diagnosed atrial fibrilation 2013. Taking Bisoprolol, Furousimide, Ramipril, Atorvastatin and 5.5mg Warfarin daily (IRN 2.5 steady monitored 3/12). Recent erectile dysfunction. Question: should I avoid changing medication and go for a pump?
I am 27 year old man and have been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, although what troubles me the most is anxiety and depression. Very strong versions of them! I have been hospitalized 21st of October 2016. for 3 weeks in psychiatry because of intense stress which manifested as strong tremors and huge sweating without temperature. I am in really stressful condition basically whole past year and still. I take Geodon (ziprasidone) 2x40mg and fluvoxamine 150 mg, often abusing promazine as I have intense problems with falling asleep. After two weeks in hospital, on weekend release home, I took in desperation in two days 2 pills of Proscar (finasteride). I must be honest and tell that even before taking this two pills I felt huge decline in my sexual function. Since hospitalized couldn’t get any real erections… But when I took the pills it went all the way down. I lost all sexual functions including sexual thoughts. After 3 weeks of taking it I could maintain barely erection so when I masturbate I hardly orgasm. But I thought I was recovering. Now, since beginning of this year I became totally impotent, even strongest visual, aural and tactile stimuli couldn’t do anything not even little erection. So I got really psycho after that! I cried, I don’t know the reason which caused it! These two pills? Or what? Geodon and Fluvoxamine aren’t new in my therapy. In fact, they didn’t add or remove anything from therapy while I was hospitalized that last time. I tested my hormones which I am attaching to this question. It’s in Croatian, but you will know what each word means. It’s global language, medicine. Doctor told me I need to go to my psych immediately tomorrow for change of therapy. That it is the cause, receptors in my brain that hold me from getting erection and by the way I lost all emotions of love! I don’t know what it feels to be loved. So he suggested switching medicine. I was taking fluvoxamine whole my life since I got first symptoms, since I was 14teen. I just wanted to ask, is it possible that brain and depression, anxiety or whatever psyche did this to me? And shall I change both AD and AP or just change antidepressant? And which one I would be best on, since I tried once for few days paroxetine and I couldn’t orgasm at all! So no to paroxetine. Is there any antidepressant that would help me with severe depression and one that doesn’t destroy my libido or orgasm ability? I just still can’t believe that I became impotent and lost emotions just because of psyche. If you can, please explain it to me bit more, cause I really do not understand that it is possible. It’s like telekinesis! Doing stuff physical with psyche!
It all started from the age 19, i had pain on my knee,left/right suppose right knee and the after few days it circulated to my right elbow then to the left elbow and then to the left knee and the pain vanished. It kept occurring in about 2 weeks, then slowly the pain started increasing it started hurting from my knee below, the circulation occurred and vanished. I used to apply gel and bandages because i thought its jus the normal pain. It continued and almost after 2 years or so the pain started getting extreme and the whole leg and hold hand started paining. I realized its not usual pain so i went and checked, because it started from the knee they inspected my bones and all my results were clear. After going to few doctors they said its not a bone problem may be nerves, i went to check again and they suspected it to be arthritis but since nothing could be seen on my bones they weren’t sure about it. The pain now attacks my whole leg and my lower back, if my hand then whole hand my upper back. Many times i have had very severe pain throughout my body and i freeze i cannot move anything and if i do it hurts even more. I feel like someone is poking me with a very sharp thing all over my body, all i do is take a painkiller and sleep. Once when it was paining so much i happened to take 3 painkillers in the difference of an hour and my face started swelling like an allergic patient and i was rushed to the hospital and given allergic stuffs which cooled it down i just wanted the pain to cool down so i took unknowingly that these things might happen. I don’t know what it is and haven’t figured it out. Do you have any idea?i am 27 now.
My 13 year old daughter has been having a shooting pain on the top right of her head since last march or april. The spot was probably about a inch big. When we first noticed it there was a bump but it went away within a month so we didnt worry about it until a few months later. The doctor had us follow up to take her for a MRI but they did not find anything so we left it alone and a few weeks to a month later, the dot extended to about three inches and goes to the back right of her head. We do not know rather to follow up with the doctor again or leave it alone because they did not find anything in the MRI . Is there any other tests they could do? What could it be?
