Hi Doctor,
I am a 23 year old female who had a cyst removed on my neck in August but had been prescribed 3 antibitotics since May. I was diagnosed with a C Diff Infection on 11/5 and prescribed Metronidazole 500 mg. 3x/day for 10 days. I am on day 9 and having the following symptoms:
• Partially floating green soft stool very foul smell
• Nausea
• Weak, light headed, fatigue
• Trouble sleeping
• Mild stomach pain
• Neck, shoulder, back pain
• Awful headache yesterday
• Anxious and emotional
Is it just side effects of the medication and remaining symptoms of the C Diff or should I be alarmed?
female age 55, overweight, smoker, colitis, no surgeries, OTC Zantac, Excedrin, multi vitamins, Fish Oil, and for 24 hrs taken garlic and goldenseal by mouth. Slightly warm off and on, headache, backache, nausea, just feel kinda crumby. Third day since scratches on left breast from ferrel cat we had taken in last 2 weeks while she gave birth so shed be safe.Wash it numerous times daily w/soap n water and apply neosporin by day and pure honey by night. Scratches were looking pretty good but tonight very red and several tiny oozing spots with a red blood blister in between the scratches which go up and down my left breast. No insurance or money hate to go to ER but wonder if I should. No tetanus shot for 37 years. have 4 teenage kids. health is fair. allergic to all cillins, keflex, eurethromyasin, codeine. Cellulitis in rt. ankle from tattoo ink last year never healed still large nodule over area despite 10 days of antibiotics.
I’m a 20 year old female. I’ve got bulimia and I’m on lamictal for bipolar disorder. Three days ago I felt like i had a hair stuck at the back of my throat and it was like I couldn’t get rid of it, then I noticed right at the back of my tongue I have about 6/7 (I can’t see exactly how many as I have to poke my tongue right out) little mushroom looking lumps. They’re not sore or painful just irritating. My bulimia is really bad at the moment and i’ve been sick a lot so I’m wondering if it’s connected?
21, Male.
I am a junior in college and am currently at school and just feel like I have been sick with colds for most of the semester. This has easily been the most academically challenging semester of my college career, and with that came a lot of stress and anxiety (I do feel like i suffer from some form of anxiety). In late August I caught strep throat, as it was going around a lot on campus. Since that I have had bronchitis in September (which cleared up in a few weeks) and after that have just been dealing with minor colds (stuffy nose, slight cough, minor scratchy throat). Once once cold seems to be dissipating, it seems to either come back or a new one comes in. In general I feel like a healthy person, as I am not overweight, however, I do not eat super healthy and because of my immense school work I do not get much exercise.
I do live in an apartment with 3 other guys, and the house isn’t always the cleanest, but they don’t seem to be suffering. I don’t really suffer form allergies, and I know my colds aren’t allergies because the phlegm is yellow/green. I am NOT sexually active. Do drink probably once a week, but am not a smoker.
I feel like I have overworked myself this semester and have been constantly stressed, and having constant runny noses and slight coughs isn’t helping, especially with my anxiety. Need answers!
19, Female, Medical History Clear.
I have a very swollen and painful finger. I cannot move any of the joints. It is all green around the finger nail and above near the cuticle area it’s like there’s an abscess or something…I don’t want to lose my finger or anything; I’m terrified! Just need some advice..
Age:20, Gender: Female
I have asthma since the age 5.
Please I need advice. Last week I started feeling sick it started with spitting mucus and a very mild sore throat, then in the morning I was completely sick. Major sore throat, headache, coughing mucus, wheezing while breathing, sinuses, nausea, vomiting and runny nose and watering mouth. Went to the doctor he said it was strep throat and gave me Cefdinir.. About two days later I was feeling way better. Everything was gone except the mucus which is still here until today and wheezing while breathing. So today I woke up and brushed my teeth felt some type of burnt-tongue sensation. I put my phone light and see tiny red bumps on the back of my tongue.. It has been two weeks now that I have lower right flank pain that comes and go. It is rarely accompanied with bloating. I have praying over and over to not have a std. I am in tears. I really need advice please.
Here are the things that I have been doing:
-I got into a car accident last month(whiplash maybe)
-I drinked a lot of cayenne pepper mixed with a small amount of warm water with lemon the night before my small bumps on the tongue (if that can help)
-I have had unprotected sex also.
Good day. I need help i have really bad pain in both of my ovary sides… I went to the doctor he pushed on my right and it hurt. But then he pushed on my left side and i screamed with pain. I had a full bladder so when he pushed on my bladder it hurted but he said that’s normal for a overfull bladder. And then i peed in a cup. He then pushed it again i had no pain. He moved from the right side to the left and when he pushed i screamed again. He said i might be pregnant.. Then i told him i had sex unprotected with my bf on the 3 sept and i had my period on the 16 sept… I had a really bad period. And then October came i had my period on the 14th… Barely a period… Had no symptoms. Just ate a lot. But my next period is due on the 14 Nov. The doctor then said i wont be pregnant so he said i had bladder infection just by looking at my pee… He did not test it.. He gave me meficine which is not taking away my side pains but giving me nausea for a little while… Can i be pregnant unknowingly … I did take test.. Negative. Is this a case of ectopic pregnancy… My sister said it might be…. Or is the doctor right …do i have infection. I had bladder infection before that is why i know the feeling. Its not the same. I also had ovary infection about 5-6 months ago. The doctors did give me meds. I have not had any pain since then… But two months ago when i had sex with my bf … I had a really really bad period. Is there anything else that might cause this pain i am having in both my ovary sides or is it bladder infection?? I am only 19 years and completely freaked out now. Please help.
Thank you
Hi, I have been having heartburn for a couple years, it has gotten much worse and has nothing to do with what I eat, been on prescribed medications omeprazole 40 mg daily and added ranitidine 150 mg twice daily – this was added couple months ago and its nor working. The last 3 months it has gotten worse to the point I get sick . And then the heartburn will hang on for several days not to the extreme but it’s there. I have also started a month ago having all over body itching with no rash, especially my jaw and neck. Im also having pain behind my right shoulder blade from time to time, the pain lasts for a few hours, at its worse the pain is about a 7. Its not from the way I sleep or exercise or work I have been paying attention to this also. For the past month I have not been sleeping well at all. I wake up several times a night, sometimes drenched in sweat. I have been getting 3 – 5 hours of sleep every night, I’ve always needed at least 8 hours. Very tired all day.
I am 49 years old, female,
Can you help me with this?
I am a 52 yr old female. I take Lovastatin and Levothyroxin.
1 month ago I went to emergency room because of a cough that had been coming and going for a month and never had a fever phlegm was always clear to cloudy no color to it. I was diagnosed with having pneumonia and sepsis. Pneumonia was not seen on xrays it was seen on cat scan with contrast. I spent 4 nights in hospital getting iv antibiotics and fluids for the sepsis. Pneumonia from my understanding was viral. I am not at 4 weeks after having been admitted and cough is not getting any better. I have been to dr 2x and they say oh what you are going thru is normal. It takes 3-4 weeks for lungs to clear up. (I was told that at 3 weeks post admission.) The phlegm starting 2 nights ago has gotten very thick and green. I am also coughing up some Looser phlegm but it also no longer is clear to cloudy. I am concerned that this Dr office is not really listening to the problem
I had surgery on my back all most four years ago – that surgery went great on the back – Got home started to get very high fever – rushed back to hospital for a week on heavy antibiotic. So for the last four years I have felt like I’m being poisoned all the time – could not work at all for two and a half years because of my stomach – very consent diarrhea 15 to 20 times a day.
So they gave me a fecal transplant – it helped cut it to 8 to 10 times a day.
Still feel like i”m being poisoned still – and very tried all the time.
So my Question is for the last four years the only time I felt normal is when I have a cold – other then the cold.
What does your body go through to fight the cold that makes me feel better? I have seen many doctors even been down to Cleveland Clinic – No luck
I did tell my doctor on Monday about me feeling better with a cold – the feeling of being poisoned goes away.
