Hello, I am a 61 year old male ,for the past 2 months I have had raised red spotty rash at the base of spine at top of buttocks ,no creams I’ve used have any effect . Also have back pain in the rash area.
I have had what feels like food stuck in my chest / oesophagus for two days. I dont really feel anything until I swallow liquids or foods and get a sharp shooting pain/ feeling in my chest. I have tried to drink plenty of water and have also taken rennie incase it was heartburn however nothing has changed. Any help would be much appreciated.
My age is 41, weight is 85 KG and height is 1.7 meters. At the beginning of this year I started feeling slight dizziness and shortness of breath. I latter found out that my blood pressure was on the high side averaging 140/90. I tried to exercise this pressure down, healthy eating, no salt, but problem is that sometimes my pressure would spike to levels like 160/110 pulse 150 for a short time of less than 5 minutes and then leave me feeling weak for a few days.
Before starting Medication I did ESG, ECHO, cholesterol test, x-ray and blood test. Everything was registering normal.
So I was put on amlodipine 10mg and Propranolol 40mg on 1st July 2016. This helped lower my blood pressure to around 115/68. Only problem is that it makes me feel quite tired after little activity like walking. After complaining about this tiredness to the doctor yesterday, he changed my drugs to 100mg Losartan (1 tablet per day) and 25mg Atenolol (2 tablets per day).
Won’t the sudden stop of using amlodipine and propranolol bring problems; I thought they would just reduce the medication cause this is what I ultimately want, reduction of these meds until I stop using completely?
10 years back I was diagnosed as Type-II diabetic patient and my doc advised me to take Lantus Insulin. After some trial and error 16 units was decided.
Now for some months I am noticing that my sugar is around 200 for fasting and 265 as PP.
Now I am taking Triglycomet in the morning and 18units lantus insulin at night.
Please suggest.
I have been married for 2 and half years now. We are trying to conceive after first year of marriage. I have tried TVS scan for tracking ovulation which happens between 15th and 16th day counting from my first day of periods. Recently i had undergone some tests which resulted i have high antisperm antigen value and also TB of uterus. My husband’s sperm analysis is normal according to my doctor. I am taking medications from past two months for both the conditions which are AKT-3, Prednisolone 10mg, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride 40mg.
We tried last month and i did not concieve. My periods cycle vary from 31-37 days. i am 27 y.o and my husband is 32 y.o , I want to know whether we should try naturally or should i think of IUI as an option
Hi I was hit in the ear by my little brother and I can’t hear properly in my ear now. It’s ringing as well it’s as if water of something is trapped in there but there’s nothing there. I even used cutips to see if there is any wax. There was a little bit but that’s about it. It really hurts and I don’t know what to do.
My husband is 35 years. He is suffering from abdominal pain since last 4 weeks. When he gets pain it lasts for an hour. His hands and feet get cold. He had endosocopy and colonoscopy done. Report says body and antral type gastric mucosa with mild chronic active gastritis composed of scattered lymphocytes and plasma cells in the lamina propria. There were minor changes suggestive of PPI-effect on acid-secreting tubes. H Pylori not detected. There is no intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia or malignancy. Blood test report says Lipase Level 82 U/L. What do you suggest?
I am 34 years old. I have thyroid problems. I’ve had 1 miscarriage and 2 children. 8 years ago I had my tubes tied. I had my regular period a week ago and I stopped bleeding…but Everytime my husband and I have sex I start bleeding really bad afterwards. We haven’t done anything different. Can you please tell me what could cause this. Someone said I could be pregnant in my tubes or have a cyst or tumor. It doesn’t hurt…just a little cramping. I will bleed anywhere from 1 your to 12hours then stop again. What is going on?
My wrist has been swollen for a week now I have tried putting an ice pack on it for 3 days and keep it elevated. It hurts so bad that last night I could go to work this morning. Why or what is causing this to happen to me.
Hi Doc,
I am a 28 yr old male, for the past 2 years experiencing various symptoms like Fatigue, Body Pain & Bumps. My major & frequent symptom is fatigue & body pain, initially this occurred 3 to 6 months once but now it’s like once in every month. Once the symptoms start to hit I will feel very tired and whole body will be in pain like I am going to have fever, it will continue until a week and goes off after that no use even if I take paracetamol it will remain for 1 week and goes off itself. Beginning I thought I had some fever but the hospital I visited mentioned my temperature is normal, I had consulted one or more doctors who had concluded me that it’s because of STRESS. I have been tested for CBC (Full blood test), Thyroid, Ultrasonic for kidneys, VDRL, Hepatitis and even HIV where all turned out to be normal. More than once & in different period of time I got tested for WBC where the doctors said I have no infection and all my counts are normal. For record I had sex with protection in the past.
Over the past 2 months I managed to change my lifestyle like extending my hours of sleep to 7 & half hours to 8 hours (Before I used to sleep only 6 hours max.) and working out my body 5 days a week. But still I am experiencing the symptoms more often unlike before as the fatigue & body pain now started to occur twice in a month. I am totally confused & annoyed and no idea in what direction I should move forward like should I continue to look out for more tests on STD types of diseases or else should I test for cancer or any other tests. Kindly be advised.
I have been bruising a lot for no reason if I get hot I start shaking and can’t think straight my vision is getting bad and this all started a week ago
Hi, for years now I have been suffering from severe belly aches. They are not constant, but do occur almost every day. The pain can last from anywhere between 10 minutes upto the whole day. When the pain starts it starts quite dull, I can bare it, usually within the hour I am in severe pain and it spreads to my ribs, my back, everything hurts. The pain isn’t just in one spot, it makes my WHOLE stomach ache, as if there is just a sheet of pain covering my stomach. Do you have any idea what it could be?
