Hi guys 22 year old caucasian Female here, 162cm, 59kg
Roughly four weeks ago I stayed at my parent’s house and woke up absolutely drenched in sweat. They had just bought a new futon, and it was a leather-type fabric, so I had assumed it was down to that. I went back home but the sweats did not stop. I would say, give or take a few days off, I have been drenched in sweat every evening since. Sometimes it’s so bad that I will have a dream that I am sweating (this has happened twice now).
It will wake me up in the early hours, say 1am, and again at 3 or 4am, and I will be so thirsty I have to down about a pint of water before attempting to sleep again. I can no longer bear the heating on.
My doctor thought it could be hormonal so I was sent for PCOS-related blood checks. My hormone levels all came back dandy. They did ultrasound me and find a TINY 0.6MM cyst on my right ovary but as my metabolic indications weren’t there, they did not think it could be causing the sweats.
Two weeks into the sweating I got an incredibly bad cold, which came with a cough – it was a rattly cough, but my chest is clear. I am still coughing up chunks of white phlegm a few times an hour. I had a chest x-ray that has come back clear. Other cold symptoms have subsided.
My doctor took a shed load of blood tests last week My blood tests have come back as no action required. They took Renal profile, bone profile, liver function, tsh, esr, fbc, HIV 1/2, CMV, and EBV Antibody. So what the hell is going on? I’m just really suffering from the lack of sleep. Originally the cough was thought to be due to a throat infection, but the medication given to me did not settle it. We thought it could be nasal drip so I tried Avamys nasal spray, but that has made no difference, and as I am not congested at all in my nose it was hard to believe anyway. The doctor had a check of my lymph nodes and said she could feel a few raised in my throat but did not pursue it further.
I have lost about 3kg this month but have been on a low carb eating lifestyle since April. My calories SHOULD be at maintenance (1600-1800kcal a day) so perhaps this is due to the amount I am sweating at night? I just feel really goddamned tired now, like I can’t focus, and I dread sleeping because I know it will be interrupted in just a few hours.
EDIT: My thyroid has also been checked via bloods and that all came back normal, and I have no other diagnosed long-term health issues. I am a recovered bulimic in case that is relevent (2yrs out of recovery).
I am a 35 year old male. I was in the hospital around 10 days ago. I had a full blown grand mal seizure and remained unconscious for around 15 minutes after. MRI of the brain was normal and EEg test was also normal. I was diagnosed with being Hypoglycemic, my blood sugar level was at a 50 when the ambulance first picked me up. I’ve never had a seizure in my life before then. Regardless I’ve been perfectly ok since then until a couple days ago. In the last couple days I’ve been having bloody stools, some with a lot of blood, along with diarrhea. and now today i keep having pains right beneath my right ribs, there’s so many different opinions online, any thoughts?
I’m 33yrs old just went to dentist for tooth to get pulled they put me on antibiotics for an abscess they prescribed the wrong dose of 150mg I took loaded dose of 300mg/2 pills then continued with one (150mg) every 6hrs unfortunately then pain worsen so I was taking them every 4hours the next day the left side of my face was swollen pain radiating down my neck up my ear all the way to my temple I went to ER and they prescribed me 300mg of same med clindamycin. Still no pain relief and face is even more swollen traveling to chin and lip. My question is: should I take loaded dose of 600mg/2pills and then go down to 300mg/1pill every 6 hrs to attack the bacteria since I fact they gave me wrong dose so technically I never truly had the initial dosage of 600mg. Will this finally start the healing process or will this further strengthen the bacteria? Because at this point they are winning this battle. I’m in constant escrusciating pain that breaks me down to full on tears. I’m talking boo hooing snot drooling wining and crying like a 3yr old my daughter was scared she never saw me cry like a baby before. I’m scared certain post say I can die from the poison I just don’t know wat to do. Please help. I hope I gave u all info. Oh yea taking 2-60g motrins snd 2-100mgtramidol every 4hours and the pain never subsides intact I barely make it to the full 4th hour. There has got to be an explanation or pain management treatment plan for this please help I swear if I had a gun I probably pull the trigger
Hi, I can you help me assess the risk of thromboembolic complications due to discontinuation of anticoagulation medicine against the increased risk of hemorrhage if oral anticoagulation is not resumed as it was prior to a burr hole surgery. The few studies addressing the issue are conflicting.I had a burr hole surgery done two months ago to drain a subdural hematoma caused by a fall. All the blood has been removed or reabsorbed. However, now I have a very high platet count (500 trombocytes) and low MCHC levels (Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration) both which were always normal before the surgery. I stopped my oral anticoagulation medicine (trombyl) before the surgery and I have not restarted it. Do you think that is the cause for the raised levels? Should I restart the oral anticoaulation medicine because of the increased risk of hemorrhage? I started with it because of a heart attack over ten years ago and I have not had problems with my heart or hematomas outside of these two events. Also the risk that I will fall and hurt my head again is slim to none because I receive help now. I am a 70 year old male with type 2 Diabetes and Parkinsons disease with no other medical issues.Best regards
I am a 42 yr, female. I was diagnosed with crohn’s almost 20 yrs ago. It causes me to be severely anemic and I require iron infusions periodically. When I start to get really anemic, I start getting staph infections in my nose and around my mouth. I have been dealing with it for along time BUT about 6 months ago when I got a staph infection, it took on a life of its own. It has exploded all over my face and will not go away. I have sores all over my face and lips that will not heal. They are extremely painful. I also have a sore on my neck and one on my leg that will not heal. About a week ago I thought I had a splinter on my thumb and when I examined it closure, I realized there were literally thousands of little shards in my fingers and they will not come out with tweezers. They are so painful I cannot touch anything or even brush them against anything. Out of desperation, I covered my fingers with superglue to provide a barrier to keep them from being jostled. Instantly the glue started extracting the shards out of my fingers. I was then able to remove the dried glue and the shards along with it. (Thank God). At the same time, the sore on my neck started hurting really bad and the scab had become dense and thick. When I touched the scab, it came off and I realized the sore was also full of shards of whatever they are. So I covered it with glue and thankfully it had the same result. The glue extracted them and they came out when I removed the hardened glue. Also, the sores on my face have the shards and are weeping tiny clear balls of some serum. If I wipe them off, more come out of my pores or hair follicles. It is the most horrific feeling. I am embarrassed to go out in public, I look horrific. Help!!!!
Is there something else I can take for energy? I have fatigue from being on several medications. I take Gingko Biloba and B12, plus I take a vitamin every day. The medications I take are Lorazepam, Levothyroxine, Seroquel, Trazodone sometimes, Atoravastin, Doxazosin, Anafranil, Lamictal and Montelukast. I deal with OCD and Bipolar disorder. Is there something else natural tht would be safe that would be better? I know energy drinks aren’t really a good thing but would drinking one per day be okay and possibly help?
My girlfriend (30 years old) recently had surgery due for acoustic neuroma. She had about a 2.5cm mass removed from the left side of her head. They operated on her for about ten hours and went behind her left ear.
That was twelve days ago, she was discharged from the hospital after one week. Two days ago she came home from her parents place where she stayed for a few days because it was close to the hospital. The ride home took a little over two hours which irritated her head a bit.
The other day she began complaining of a lot of pressure in her head, and the left side of her head is visibly swollen. She has also started to ween off of the medications that she was given. Initially she was on Ranitide 150mg X 10 days, Dexamethasonel 4mg 12 hr for 2 days, 3mg 12 hr for 2 days, 2mg 12 hr for 2 days, 2mg daily 2 days, 1mg daily for 2 days, and tramcel.
I am concerned that the pressure post-op may be an issue to her brain or pose other risks to her health. The situation is aggrivated by a possible 2 hour drive to Edmonton’s University of Alberta Hospital where she could be seen, which could cause further problems to the area.
Please advise on what the problem could be and if medical attention is required and on what basis of urgency.

23 year old white female,
One of my lymph nodes on the left side of my jaw (feels like a hard ball shape) have been swollen for at least 2 years (growing gradually) and when I went to my doctor for a checkup last year they said it was probably nothing to worry about so i just kind of ignored it. Only today did it start getting tender and hurting when I touch it and now I am worried. I sometimes wake up with a sore throat but it leaves during the day. There is also a clicking in my jaw that I can’t seem to fix. I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it. Please help me know what the problem is and if it is serious. Thank you.
In the past 9 months I have had a series of tests into the investigation of a number of my symptoms. Nothing of significance became evident, although I still have my doubts.
My bloods show a very small rise in my tumor marker ca19.9. Nothing of concern. Polycystic ovaries were found through ultrasound. Endometriosis has been suspected through abdominal CT. Pars defect consistent with spondylilosis L5, through CT spin. Sinus tachycardia and symbolic murmur through eco. My colonoscopy and gastroscopy came back OK, papalomia removed esophagus. Bacterialitice of vagina diagnosis through cervix swab. Breast cyst through ultrasound.
I don’t know if these things will be of relevance to my most recent results and query. My tumor maker 19.9 has continued to rise, currently it is a 50uml. My white cell count slightly high 16. Swollen lymph nodes. I have just finished a series of antibiotics and am curious why I am sick. I have lost 9kg in 2 months with no exercise and horrible diet. Vomit every day. Headache constantly. Fatigue. Weakness.
hi my husband is a 45 yr old male who has had bad bronchitis lately and has been in and out of the ER lately for it. They have had him on steroids and has had some discomfort in his sides but today he woke up with a huge bruise the size of a mans shoe on his side and he hasnt fallen or run into anything
I am a 20 year old male, with no relevant medical history or allergies.
For about a week now I have been experiencing major headaches. During the day these headaches do not go away, it is a constant heavy pain (feels as though there is a lot of pressure) and are very noticeable in all areas of my head as well as upper nose and the back of my eyes. This makes every task painful. Even simple tasks like pouring a bowl of cereal.
At night, I am being woken up very violently about every hour or so with a throbbing pain and feels as though there is a lot of pressure on both of my temple regions. Since I have also had a very painful sore throat for the same amount of time, when I wake up throughout the night there is an excessive amount of saliva in my mouth. It is very painful to swallow and no matter how much water I drink my mouth is always dry.
