HiMy husband 30 and I 27 miscarried in November. I am wondering if it is possible to use his sperm and my eggs fertilized and then place back into me? If so are there any specific things required for this to be done or is the available for anyone?Thanks
Dear Ms, yes it is possible .you will receive an ovulation induction that will stimulate your ovaries to produce multiple ova. Then on the day of IVF these oocytes will be aspirated from you. Then your husband will produce a semen sample by masturbation. Then sperms will be taken from your husbands sample providing that he has motile sperms in his semen. These sperms will be used to fertilize the oocytes. Fertilized embryos will be transferred to your uterus after 3 or 5 days from the oocytes aspiration

I had cervical spine surgery 1 year ago C4 C5 disk replacement and C4 C5 C6 fusion from an injury 11 years ago, I also have rsd/crps II in the right upper extremity. S/P surgery in have had problems with my voice, it is slowly getting better. I have burning in my neck, the back pain is the same and now I have intermittant blurred vision and I have noticed some hearing problems increasing over the past year, I cannot hear someone speak to me when there is a lot of back ground noise
Hello, I would explain that the hearing loss is not related to the surgery but probably related to an inner ear disorder or the head trauma. For this reason, I recommend consulting with an ENT specialist and performing a physical exam and an audio gram. Regarding the burning in your neck, I would recommend taking pregabalin or Gabapentin. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests and treatment options. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.

Quite often and randomly will get a burning sensation in my rectum and around the tip of my penis. I was told I suffered from prostaitis and it was never enlarged. The Doc tried sveral meds from different families but I typically have neglected taking any due to the foggy feeling they give me in my head for several hours each morning usually into the afternoon. If there natural remedies I could try to limit this to a degree? I already take saw palmetto which really helped my bathroom issues. Also Ive been noticing my erections are weaker these days is this due to my prostate?
Hi, Burning at the tip of the penis may be due to a viral infection called herpes progenitors. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to get investigated thoroughly for herpes infection. After complete examination and investigations, your doctor may give antiviral medicine like acyclovir. Do not have unprotected sex. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

About 2 and a half weeks ago, I was diagnosed with cellulitis of the knee and was given 2 shots of antibiotic and prescribed two weeks of antibiotics. During that 2 weeks the infection had spread down my leg and into my ankle and foot, so my leg from my knee down was swollen (huge), and red all over and burned really bad. It was very painful and couldnt even barely touch it without pain to worsen. The infection got really bad. Now after Im done taking my antibiotics, my knee and leg is a lot better, but still has some internal swelling and I dont have full movement back in my knee. I cant bend it much, nor straighten it all the way and is still very tender inside just to use and outside to touch. The swelling on the outside appears to be mostly gone, except a few spots on my knee itself. I have also got a spot on my knee cap that is very hard and tender and looks to appear red, and or the look of a bruise. This is the spot it originated to start, before it spread. Can anyone tell me why I have a hard lump like spot on my knee like this after, if its normal, and if this will go away, or if its something that might need taken care of? Theres still some present issues from the infection and not sure if I need to be taking more antibiotics until its totally gone, or if it will just continuely get better from here. Ive been worried its something going on wrong with the bursa that my doctor said was wanted to avoid. Can anyone give me any answers or advice? Much appreciated!
Hi, Thanks for writing to Chat Doctor. You seem to have developed an abscess at the knee at the point of entry of infection. Or rather to say its more of an antibiotic now with all the antibiotics you have taken. You need to show it to a surgeon and request him to put a needle there and aspirate to see exactly if pus is there. If pus is there, then it will need incision and Chat Doctor. Regards

Hi, yesterday I was hit with a random pain in my right elbow . The tip of the bone hurts when pressed. Since yesterday pain has gotten worse and I am now feeling pain down my fore arm and hand. The tips of my finger tips feel slightly numb and are tingling . What could be the cause? The only thing I can think of is that I hurt the ular nerve by playing video games? What can I do to relive the pain in the mean time before I see my physician.
Hi...you can take analgesics and take care not to press on that nerve...till you see a doctor...

Hi, I had a colonoscopy 4 weeks ago with no issues, except that as soon as I urinated after the procedure I passed blood, and then a couple of days later and since, I ve had blood in my sperm. I ve had urine tests and ultra sound on bladder and kidneys, but the blood still is present in the sperm. I m presuming the prostate was damaged in the colonoscopy. I also had a heamorhoid banded during the procedure. Can the prostate be damaged in this procedure, and how? By prostate was mildly emlarged. Thankyou, John
Howell come to ChatDoctorIf you had gone through the procedure of colonoscopy then damage to prostate gland is out of question because the gland is not situated where the colon is situated, in my opinion better get done the sperm analysis and if this founded in there too, then CT of scrotum need to be done, to find out the cause, helps this information helps, take care.

Hi I am a 35 yr old woman, non smoker.Cholesterol of 165, triglyceride level of 68.I am 5 9 and 200 lbs. I attend a gym 3-4 days per week, walk around 10 miles and get 3 days of cardio.I eat a diet of lean meats, veggies, low on fat and almost no fried foods.Recent blood work shows normal hormone levels but an elevated tsh level of 3.77.Recently I ve noticed when getting up in the morning my heart rate will race to between 85-105 and sometimes higher.Walking up a split level staircase of 12 steps can throw my heart rate over the 120 mark with just normal walking speed.What could cause this?
Hey, The normal heart rate of an individual can go up to 120 or even 130 beats/ min. It happens especially after exertion, fever, in hyperthyroidism. So do not worry, this is a normal heart rate. Thanks Chat Doctor.

I attend a gym 3-4 days per week, walk around 10 miles and get 3 days of cardio.I eat a diet of lean meats, veggies, low on fat and almost no fried foods.Recent blood work shows normal hormone levels but an elevated tsh level of 3.77.Recently I ve noticed when getting up in the morning my heart rate will race to between 85-105 and sometimes higher.Walking up a split level staircase of 12 steps can throw my heart rate over the 120 mark with just normal walking speed.What could cause this? ### Answer: Hey, The normal heart rate of an individual can go up to 120 or even 130 beats/ min. It happens especially after exertion, fever, in hyperthyroidism. So do not worry, this is a normal heart rate. Thanks Chat Doctor.
Hello, Im having sharp pain in my chest right by my top rib right side. Should I worry ? I just had a blood test a few months ago and everything was perfectly fine and all 4 blood tests in 4 years have been perfectly fine. heart desease runs in the family and I smoke.
Hi and thank you for choosing Chat Doctor to post your question. In my opinion sharp chest pain can be a cause of concern since it can be the presentation of a serious heart or lung disease. Your family history of heart disease should not be neglected and neither smoking history. If I was your treating doctor I would suggest doing these examinations: 1.ECG, graded exercise stress testing to exclude coronary artery disease or other cardiac cause.2. Chest X-ray to exclude a lung problem such as pneumothorax or other lung causes. Normal results of blood test can not exclude serious causes of chest pain. I hope my opinion can be helpful. Wish you good health. Kind regards Chat Doctor.

I have a red spot or bump (tiny) on my outside left nostril. When I dislodge the red scab it bleeds continuously without stopping. The red spot eventually hardens after hours but it never goes away. I ve had it for about 2 years now and every time I dislodge it - it bleeds this way. It is bleeding now and has been for the last 30 minutes. What is this and how to I get rid of it once and for all?
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have nasal polyp. You should go for surgery. Removal by surgery is the permanent solutions. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.

I just got out of the hospital for mental illness two days ago for hearing voices and extreme sadness. Now they ve come back. I m not suicidal but am scared. I do live with my parents so I m not alone right now. The voices talk to me loudly and seem to get worse at night. I also feel like I could cry at any time. I feel pissed right now. How the hell am I going to sleep tonight with the freaking loud voices in my head. I m scared. How do I tell my supportive parents the truth after just two days of being back home? Please help. I just need to chat with someone right now who can help.
Hello, It is distressing to have such voices called auditory hallucinations. You must continue with your medications as prescribed from the hospital. It takes some time for the psychiatric medications to have their full effect. Till that time you have to hold yourself and face these things. You should tell your parents, and it will be a lot better if they know about it. They are the one who will understand you, and you will find chatting with them easy. Do not hesitate to get back to your doctor if you feel that you are not able to handle it. Good luck.

I have had very low blood pressure all my life. Im 47 and recently have high pressure when it is checked. I have headaches frequently and understand this could be related. But I also notice that no matter how much sleep I get I still feel exhausted. Is this possible another symptom of high blood pressure? In all honesty I have been very sedentary this winter. As an avid hiker (4-6 miles per day)so this is unusual for me and no doubt why the pressure is up. So perhaps this is also why I feel so tired?
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. High blood pressure can lead to headache and fatigue both. You should check your blood pressure. If needed start antihypertensive medicine. Life style modifications like regular exercise and yoga and diet restrictions are also needed. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.

I had flu about 4 weeks ago .and I got over it ok and nouw I have rely bad chest pain.it feels like I have broke my chest bone.and when I try and move or lift somthing it hurts.also when I cough it hrt and not much mucus cmes of. Can you tell whats up with me its herd to breath as well.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. By your history and description, possibility of pleuritic chest pain is more. And it is seen commonly with lung infection and bronchitis. You are also having cough and difficulty on breathing so possibility of bronchitis and lung infection is high. You also had flu infection. And this can also cause bronchitis and lung infection. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is needed for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You may need inhaled bronchodilators, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and antibiotics. So better to first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.

I have Hep c and last yr when tested they said my viral load was dorment? can you tell me when should i see someone about getting treated and what are the signs, i also take a numerous amount of pysc meds and currently on suboxone but i dont want to take the suboxone all my life ...lately i am having alot of pain in abdomen area
Hi, Since you apparently had very low Hepatitis C virus RNA levels, your doctor told you that the virus is dormant. This means that you do not need to start treatment now. You need to be screened at least one to two times a year to assess if the virus has started replicating and the status of your liver function. If your doctor finds these test reports worsening, he will suggest that you start treatment. Till then, you need to take care of your health by avoiding alcohol and other substances including opioid analgesics like Suboxone which can harm your liver. Please take steps to prevent the spread of the virus. Also, immediately inform your doctor if you experience yellowish discoloration of eyes, skin and nails along with nausea and loss of appetite. Hope you find this helpful. Best wishes.

Hi my 15 year daughter has been suffering with lower bak pain and tummy ache since August . She has had blood in her urine and urine tests showed protein in it. The doctor sent her for a scan which showed up a cyst but has a shadow in the middle. One off her blood test showed 77 think kidney one they retested again recently which now is 68. A pediatrician now wants to rescan her as he is concerned about the unusual shaped 2cm cyst with a shadow in the middle. What can you tell me about this. Thank you
Hi. I am afraid you need to be a bit more clear about the name of the blood test result and the value. If it is creatinine and the value is millimole, it seems normal. However, there is some physical abnormality in the kidney which needs further investigation. I suspect your daughter will need a CT scan of the kidneys to clarify the nature of the cyst. Many a time it turns out to be benign (i.e. nothing to worry about) but worth getting the advised investigation ASAP. Regards

My son injured his back the other day by bending funny while playing in a bounce house. He says it does not hurt most of the time, but when he bends a certain way or puts any pressure on the area that he hurt, the pain comes back. There is no visible bruise and the musicles are relaxed and the spine itself appears normal.
Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. You can try simple back pain exercises which might help.2. Howevere kids are active in their movements.3. It might be a simple complaint the kid giving, but depends on if it has been there for a while and same complaint, then you have to think of it.4. If it is long-standing.

Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.

Hi, Anemia can be secondary to kidney problem, as an essential hormone for RBC production, which is called as erythropoietin, is produced in kidneys. Please consult a nephrologist. If kidney function is really reduced, for treatment of anemia you would need erythropoietin injections along with hepatitis. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. With regards,

Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms could be related to a metabolic disorder (low blood pressure, thyroid gland dysfunction, etc.). Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your GP for a careful physical exam and some tests: - a cardiac ultrasound- a chest X-ray study-thyroid hormone levels-blood electrolytes- a Head Up Tilt test for orthostatic intolerance. Hope to have been helpful to you! Wishing all the best,

my dad is having advance prostaat cancer, he cannot work or even stand up . he sleeps a lot and was yesterdag night very sick that everybody was panicking. he did not respone to nothing and could not even talk to anybody till the next day. it is so had for me cause this is right now happening in gambia and living here in the nederlands. please help me out what does this mean
You have not mentioned whether he is receiving any treatment for his cancer. If he is not then it is quite likely that his disease is progressing. Advanced prostate cancer, or for that matter any cancer can spread to any other part of the body. In your dads case, it appears that the disease has spread to the brain, resulting in all these symptoms. If you want him to get better, then he will need immediate hospitalization with injections of antibiotics, steroids, and anti-seizure Chat Doctor. Also, he will need to undergo an MRI of the brain to confirm the diagnosis. If it is indeed cancer then he will need short course radiotherapy to the brain. All this will not cure him, but make him better.

After my last period which is on 2nd I visit my doc on 11th day and she said u have one good size of follical (20.5) try.......try this weak but now 2 days before I visit her again and she said your uterus lining is thin you will get your period soon. What s her mean even my period ia due on 2nd before 2 days
Hi, I understand your concerns, but thin lining of the uterus makes it difficult for the embryo implantation to occur and decreases the chances of getting pregnant. You should go back to your doctor next month to give you medications that will increase the uterine lining thickness. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

About 2 weeks ago, my boyfriend and I were making out (both fully clothed). I saw a dry, white line on my jeans a little while later. I touched it, trying to wipe it off. I do not remember how long after that I touched myself, but it was not immediate. Since last Saturday I have had nausea and chills in varying levels. A few days ago, I discovered small, white bumps on the inside of my vagina at the top and one larger red bump with a white top on the side. Just today, I began experiencing sharp pain in my ovaries. So, in summation, can I be pregnant?

I had an unprotected sex with my boyfriend last wk friday though he didn t cum inside me,suddenly i am scared of maybe conceiving and don t know what drugs to take to be sure I don t get pregnant,please advice me on what to do bearing in mind that I ve an issue of high prolactin for some time now that ve seized to stop even with the medications I took in the past also I have a case of renal problem.Please come to my aid,waiting patiently to hear from you
Hi there,If you are having a high prolactin levels it is unlikely you are ovulating normally, making you get irregular periods. You need to take medications for the same, after meeting an endocrinologist; also for the renal problems you need to get in touch with a nephrologist immediately; as kidneys are very vital organs, and you need to make sure they function well. For contraception that will not be affected or will affect the above diseases you should consider Copper-T, an intrauterine device, it is safe, long term and does not have any hormones in it. It is very, very effective as well and can be fitted easily on OLD basis. Get it inserted after your next period, 8 or 9th day after the start of the period to be sure that you are not pregnant. Hope this helps. Regards.

Dear Doctor,I am a male, 30 years old and married 2 years ago. Recently doctor diagnosed azoospermia. I used to take corticosteroids (prednisone) for skin infection since 2 years. Even about 45 days back also I took that medicine. Medicine is one of the reasons for azoospermia? There was no suspect in VDRL, HbsAg, HIV, TSH, TB antibodies IgM, complete blood profile tests and are normal. No one my family having azoospermic condition. One doctor is advicing to go for TESA. Is TESA necessary without fidning the right cause of Azoospermia. Is Azoospermia curable by medicine? Do you prescribe any doctor in Hyderabad, India?Thank you for understanding my problemRegards,Pras
Hiii.azoospermia may be due to alcohol intake, cigarette smoking, weed intake, cocaine abuse etc., sometimes the cause of azoospermia will be unknown.in case of azoospermia, testicular biopsy or aspiration from the testis can be done. One sperm is taken, and it will be fused with ovum. You can consult with your infertility specialist for further follow up. Thank you.

I adopted a girl who is now 6 she has a problem with lieing. Very sexual towards boys and men. she has issues with her memory and has difficulty in retaining information. Her thinking process is scrambled. We tell her to do something she says ok and then does something different. She is sneaky and will wait for the right time where there is no one watching and do what she is not supposed to do. No matter how much time out spankings and even the award system doesn t seem to matter. We ask her questions ask her to repeat what we just told her and she does seem to understand but still continues to make a bad choice Her mom has ms and her father was homeless and I think he has the same problem with his thinking. No matter how many times we say something and she gets in trouble she still continues to do wrong does this make any sense to you

Over six months ago a substantial part (about 1/4) of my back bottom left tooth broke off due to a cavity. Due to financial reasons and other dental proceedures need I have not had it removed yet. This morning (May 28, 2014) I brushed my teeth and since then my tooth is aching badly. Very sharp pain, specifically when I such my cheek in (habit to keep hot or cold off the tooth) what could be causing this? Is it possible that I dislodged something that was covering a nerve ending? I know I need to get in to see my dentist immediately, but is there anything I can do while I wait to get in?
Hello, Thank you for consulting with Chat Doctor. As you are mentioning that your tooth was broken six months ago, it means the tooth was infected at that time only. Now the pain in the tooth denotes that the infection has spread to the apex of the tooth and formed an abscess. You have to visit your dentist now as this problem can not be solved only by medication or something else, as a root canal should be done in the tooth to reduce the infection.

### INSTRUCTION: If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patient's description. ### Question: Over six months ago a substantial part (about 1/4) of my back bottom left tooth broke off due to a cavity. Due to financial reasons and other dental proceedures need I have not had it removed yet. This morning (May 28, 2014) I brushed my teeth and since then my tooth is aching badly. Very sharp pain, specifically when I such my cheek in (habit to keep hot or cold off the tooth) what could be causing this? Is it possible that I dislodged something that was covering a nerve ending? I know I need to get in to see my dentist immediately, but is there anything I can do while I wait to get in? ### Answer: Hello, Thank you for consulting with Chat Doctor. As you are mentioning that your tooth was broken six months ago, it means the tooth was infected at that time only. Now the pain in the tooth denotes that the infection has spread to the apex of the tooth and formed an abscess. You have to visit your dentist now as this problem can not be solved only by medication or something else, as a root canal should be done in the tooth to reduce the infection. Till then, you can start with some painkillers to relieve pain for some time. Hope it will help you.

The kyphotic deformity needs to be reduced by certain exercises and braces which will be explained to you by your Orthopaedician. Avoid constipation which can be common after this kyphotic deformity, by eating plenty of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables, Chat Doctor. Do walking exercise every day for 40 minutes in keeping with your Doctors advise.

Now the spectum was bright red (blood) when i woke up and this morning i could taste blood in my throat.what is going on..pain in chest and left arm is constant
Hi, If no blood clot found out, then, I suggest consulting with a GI specialist to rule out gastric problems (ulcer). I also suggest doing: - upper endoscopy-chest X-ray- abdominal ultrasound-EKG- cardiac echo to evaluate your health condition. I advise not to take the birth control shot for a while until the symptoms will get reversed. For the moment, I advise to: - Chat Doctor. Hope it was of help!

My father who is 85 yrs old choked on food and had a heart attack 8days ago. He responds to pain and opens his eyes briefly but rarely responds to verbal commands. They called and said he most likely has brain damage so I need to decide to remove from vent or prepare him Tracheostomy and food tube to be sent to long care facility in which other organs will fail eventually. Doctor had eeg done but called me without seeing it to give me these options. I would appreciate your thoughts
Considering age and present clinical condition prognosis seems to be poor. If patient is not dependent on ventilator then I will suggest domiciliary care as he needs only supportive care and recovery will take time, and also it will prevent hospital borne infections which could be fatal. Hope my advice will help you. Take care. Don't forget to rate me.

Chances are negligible. Don't worry you are going to have your periods within few days. If your cycles are regular then you had a sex in safe period moreover he didn't ejaculate inside you, and thirdly you had taken pill, so there is no chance that you are pregnant until or unless you had sex later on in unsafe time.

When I got to work this morning I felt fine. Then 5 minutes later my body felt like a heater. I was so hot, I was shaking, I felt like I was going to vomit everywhere and that I could use the bath room a million times. But I didn t feel the need to urinate. I left work came home and slept for about 6 hours woke up and felt fine. Now I m starting to feel like that again. Why is that?
Hi, Fever with shakes (chills) is mainly due to infection. In most cases the infection could be Malaria or Typhoid and in some cases it could be due to urinal tract infection. In rare cases it could be viral infection and other causes. Action to be taken:1. If you have a thermometer at home check your body temperature. (Either under the tongue or underarm temperature)2. If you have temp more than 100 seek medical help.3. Investigations (Blood: CBC, MP, Dengue, Tidal test, Urine routine) may be helpful in diagnosis. Take Marrakesh

Hi REMA, Welcome to Chat Doctor Forum. Since you said that your Periods are Regular, you will have very good chances, more than 50 % chances of Pregnancy even if you have PCs, since you will be ovulating regularly. The Problem arises if your Periods are Irregular. You said your Husband has no Vas deferens which may be its congenital absence. This condition is responsible for 1 percent to 2 percent of all infertility in men. In such cases, you may want to speak to your Doctor, your family and Opt for IVF. Good Luck.

I am having sinasetis problem, my nose will be blocked most of the time. I will be having heavy cold. I have taken so many medicines but from 13 years I am having this problem. Dust allergy is also there. My age is 25. I stopped eating the food which will increase my cold. like ice cream, banana, juice, water milon..
HIF your symptoms are so severe you can get done sensitivity test and based on that immunotherapy can be given. This will give best result. Or else symptomatic therapy should be given. For now, you can take montelukast once daily and mometasone nasal spray daily. This will help in preventing the symptoms. Regards

Hello sir, please excuse my poor english. I am 22 year old simple virgin boy . I have irrational fear of hiv about 5 years. I used to wash my hand and used antiseptics for my even small cuts. i know every thing about hiv from internet but despite i have intense fear and it is ruining my life. 5 years ago i dont have a knowledge of hiv and so that before this period I was very happy and content and didnt do this type of things. but today i watch blood stains or cuts or something else that causes anxiety. Also i live in that place (UP, India) where this is not much in prevelence. sir please help , your little advice can give me a new life. thanks
Hi, I read your query in detail and can understand your concern regarding your symptoms. From what you have mentioned, you seem to be suffering from anxiety disorder. It seems that you are having repetitive thoughts regarding the same, and you understand such thoughts are irrational. Such thoughts can be termed as obsessions and the repeated cleaning or washing in response to the thoughts can be termed compulsions. Obsessive compulsive disorder is a type of anxiety disorder which is not uncommon. I would have liked to know about any other thoughts that might be coming repeatedly to you like any doubts (and repeated checking in response to that), repeated sexual or religious thoughts. I would suggest you seek a psychiatric consultation for detailed evaluation of your symptoms and starting proper treatment. Your condition can be treated effectively with medications like fluoxetine or sertraline (one of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). You will have to be patient about the response as the medicines will take at least 10-15 days to show its effect. The treatment will be long term, and you will need regular follow-ups. Hope this information was helpful. Best wishes.

This is normal thing and not a disease. Use proper hygiene methods and deodorants. Regards.

hi doc i had a miscarriage before 2 months i did d&c on 2 may then after 2 months of normal periods this time i was going for follicle study on 11th it was 8mm and lt 13 and rt msf then on 13th day i was sure that it must have ruptured as allways happens but but doc said there is no growth but free fluid is seen so is there chances of pregnancy .. does it ruptured one day before what it means
Hi, normally with 8 mm size chance of rupture of the follicle is less, so if that ruptured in 12th day, may be that is the reason for free fluid, but as your doctor told that there is no growth of follicle, better to undergo scan on 15th day also, if needed you can for Chat Doctor injection for ovulation if your doctor suggests, anyhow you plan intercourse in these days and also start taking folic acid supplements which will help in case of fertilization. Take care.

She s now waiting to have a full body bone scan have you come a cross anything like thus before?
Hi, we have seen such cases and these are autoimmune diseases affecting the spinal cord or the anterior horn cells. Diseases like motor neuron disease, transverse myelitis should be kept in mind. Lumbar puncture, MRI or brain and spine should be done. Consult a neurologist. Thank you

Hi...was hit in the lower, outside of right shin last night with a fastpitch softball. It is VERY painful to the touch, hard to walk and put pressure on it and is a large, swollen lump. Do you have any insights on what I should do for it? Thanks so much for your time!
Hi. The only symptom of - yo can not put a pressure on the leg makes me feel a chance of a fracture. Otherwise, the symptoms are of hematoma. I would suggest you - not to move the limb, get a support and undergo the X-ray first to rule out fracture and to consult an Orthopedic Surgeon.

TIA or drug interaction? Hi. I would like to describe an event that happened two nights ago which could have been an episode of TIA, and value your opinion. BARE FACTS AS I CAN RECALL THEM. My husband & I each have an upstairs and downstairs apartment. They are not inter-joined. You get from 1 apartment to the other by means of an outside staircase. I went to sleep upstairs and he was immediately below me, downstairs. I was in a highly stressed state & to help me sleep I took 1x10mg Adco-Zolpidem Hemitartrate & 1x 0.5mg Adco-Alzam (benzodiazepine). I soon went to sleep. I think I "woke up" falling down the outside staircase (not sure) but our night guard found me lying prone on the outside pavement. He tried to help me up but my whole body was trembling violently, including my arms and legs. I was reeling, unable to walk, and crashing against the surrounding walls & fences. He called another guard and, together they helped me up a short staircase to the doorway belonging to my husbands apartment. He could not rouse my deeply sleeping husband so left me propped up against his door while he went off to phone an ambulance. He returned to find me asleep against the door. The two guards helped me up the outside staircase to my apartment where the door was wide open, and put me to bed. I slept for two hours and was awakened by two paramedics & the 2 guards. (4 people, but I "saw" about 7 people in my room! ) Nevertheless I was more coherent and declined their offer to transport me to hospital. They took my blood pressure which was fine and I was able to stand and walk. They left me to sleep. The next morning I woke up full of bruises & abrasions and my whole body was extremely stiff. I have been fine, though tender for two days. I had thought that my episode was the result of the interaction between the two tablets. (although I had taken a similar dose twice very recently). It was only last night that a friend suggested I could have experienced a TIA, and that the reason I was wandering around outside was that I was seeking help. I have been surfing the net and have learned that there is a high correlation between stress and TIA. I have been in an exceptionally high level of acute stress and anxiety for 4 months. I also smoke. Being Christmas time, doctors are scarce, and so I would value your opinion: was it the drug interaction, or could I have experienced TIA?Thank you very much. Fran Lawrence.
Hi It is rarest possibilities of ChatDoctor. So as per my opinion
If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patient's description.
### INSTRUCTION: If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patient's description. ### Question: TIA or drug interaction? Hi. I would like to describe an event that happened two nights ago which could have been an episode of TIA, and value your opinion. BARE FACTS AS I CAN RECALL THEM. My husband & I each have an upstairs and downstairs apartment. They are not inter-joined. You get from 1 apartment to the other by means of an outside staircase. I went to sleep upstairs and he was immediately below me, downstairs. I was in a highly stressed state & to help me sleep I took 1x10mg Adco-Zolpidem Hemitartrate & 1x 0.5mg Adco-Alzam (benzodiazepine). I soon went to sleep. I think I "woke up" falling down the outside staircase (not sure) but our night guard found me lying prone on the outside pavement. He tried to help me up but my whole body was trembling violently, including my arms and legs. I was reeling, unable to walk, and crashing against the surrounding walls & fences.

My 13 month old has had a fever more than 39 for 10 hours despite ibuprofen and paracetamol . She is flat. We took her to the hospital and she had a cxr which was normal and blood tests and were sent home to wait for the results of the bloods. I had been waiting a number of hours and called the lab and her monocytes are high andcrp is 24. We cannot find the paediatrician he is not answering his phone. Should I take her to a different hospital or wait?
Thank you. It is just 10 hours have passed.it is not possible to reach a diagnosis from this result. You can use paracetamol suppository & sponge the baby with warm water to normalize temperature.it may be viral fever. Wait for 3-4 days, if condition not improving then consult a pediatrician.

I am taking this pill called Marvelon. I forgot to take my pill on Saturday from what I thought, it is now Sunday, I just took the Saturday pill and now the Sunday pill both at the same time because I just remembered. It has been more than 12 hours though. However, after taking them both I realised that I took the Saturday pill but from a different row by accident. I dont know what to do, Im kind of worried
Helots ok that you took both pills at the same time, as soon as you remembered. But don't miss any more pills in this cycle or you won't be protected. About taking the wrong pill from the different row, as long as it's the same color, its fine. If you remember to take the Saturday pill from the row you missed before, you can continue, If you are confused, abandon this pack. Start a new pack from your next cycle. Use extra protection for the remainder of this cycle.

Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for your query. In most cases this is temporary liver damage and no permanent consequences will be there. Just rest, eat easier food, avoid alcohol and smoking and take some hepatoprotective medicines. If you notice jaundice, sharp pain in liver area, dark urine or symptoms persist you should go to ER. Hope I have answered your query. Regards

hi. My name is Lisa. My boyfriend and I want to have a baby. I contracted clamydia a few years back and was treated. I was told it turned into p.i.d. Is it still possible for me to conceive? Should I be checked for tube scarring? How would I do that.
HelloThanks for your query. PlD can cause infertility but not always. You can conceive as your infection is already treated. To conform your uterus and tubes are in healthy condition you can undergo ultrasonography. Regards

Hi I recently had a miscarriage and I have noticed in the morning my skin has a yellow look as do the corner of the whites of my eyes, my appetite is greatly increased and I feel tierd. Do you think I should go for a blood test from my GP as my partner and I want to start trying for another baby? Clare
Hi, Yellowish discoloring of skin, sclera and urine indicate jaundice. You should get fully evaluated by checking for bilirubin in your blood also check for viral hepatitis and take treatment accordingly. Your GP can guide you with the blood test, but you may also need an opinion from a hepatologist depending on findings of the blood results. Get these done, done before embarking on the pregnancy. Hope this helps. Regards

I have a spot near my shoulder blade that is a raised, fluid filled white bump, surrounded by a red circle. It appears to have a small black dot in the center. It is painful to the touch. The bump has been there for almost a year, and was not painful, large, fluid filled, or discolored until a few days ago
Hi, This is possibly a sebaceous cyst that has become infected. I suggest you see your doctor as you may benefit from antibiotics. Chat Doctor. FCA

Hi Dr., I am a caregiver to an 87 year old and a hospice patient with congestive heart failure, has an oxygen 24/7, has liquid morphine .5ml every/hr. She is in nebulizer and bedridden and alert. She has an episode of shortness of breath attack once in a while and it happened at 3 or 5 am when she wake up. The hospice nurse told me just give her 1 push of morphine every 10 minutes. What is the other relief for her. Sometimes she s yelling, she needs help, she wants to have treatment in the hospital, but she is hospice. Thank you. Jean
Dear MadamThanks for your query. The exact treatment for this episodic breathlessness depends upon the cause of breathlessness. If you could find any disturbance of rhythm at that particular time? If her diuretics dose need to be adjusted, especially the time? If she coughs a lot followed by sputum production at that time indicating need of clearing her airways frequently. A little dose of home oxygen helps sometime. Hope this helps to some extent. SincerelySukhvinder

Hello, a couple days ago I had an SVT episode. My heart rate got up to 230BPM I was transported by ambulance to the hospital. I have perfect cholesterol and perfect blood pressure. I was told I have super arteries. I was in the hospital for two days. I got put on a beta blocker medicine. Im just wondering how this will effect my wieght and will I be able to resume exercise sooner than later. Iam 34 yr old female 5 5 137 lbs.
Hi, Beta blockers have some influence on body metabolism if taken for months, but usually it is not much and doesn't influence. If a patient has an arrhythmia, such as in your case we perform 24 hour ECG monitoring before discharge, if there is nothing serious and likelihood of arrhythmias is low, then there is no restriction on physical activity. Take care

My toddler (22 mos. At the time)hit her head on the corner of the coffee table. She had a huge bump with an indent in the middle of the bump. The bumped healed after a week but its been 2 months and she still has a dent about an Inch long on her forehead. Is it permenant? Why has this happened?
Hi...sometimes this can happen when the upper table of the skull bone is indented and this any remain like that. But this can be told with 100% surety only after a physician palpates the area and confirms the indentation is from the bone. The other option is a CT scan of the skull with 3D reconstruction imaging of the skull. I suggest you consult with your pediatrician regarding this. Regards -

Hello, I am 40, male, non-smoker, 6ft tall and weighing 194lbs. I ve been losing weight for the past 5 months. In March I went to my cardiologist to have my heart checked. Since then I am on Lisinopril 20mg to control my bloodpressure. All the tests were fine. At the time of my doctors visit I was weighing 230lbs. So I dropped around 36 pounds in 5 months. Is that normal? Also, it doesn t stop. I keep losing weight. I changed my diet a little bit, but nothing radical though. Less soft drinks and deep fried food, other than that I have decent lunch and dinner. I don t have any pain or loss of appetite. My bowel movement is normal and stool color is light-brown to brown. Could Lisinopril be the cause of my weight loss? Also, I have anxiety and get very nervous with the slidest pain. Could anxiety also be a cause? Your thoughts and comments are more than welcome. Many thanks Michael
H, I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms do not seem to be related to lisinopril, as this is not a common adverse effect related to this Chat Doctor. Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician and performing some tests to investigate for the possible underlying causes: - complete blood count for anemia- PSA, Ca19.9 and CEA plasma levels- an abdominal ultrasound - a chest X-ray study-vitamin B12 plasma levels for possible deficiency. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi my sister was diagnosed with stage two endometrial cancer. Had a full hysterectomy and unfortunately they found cancer cells on her ovary from the pathology report. She is now in her final cycle of chemo and will start radiarTigon in a few weeks. Her team of drs told her this is for prevention purposes. Last week she found out she has a blood clot and is being treated for it. She is really down and her emotional state is fragile. Can you confirm that a blood clot is in fact a side effect. Every time she gets a new side effect she thinks the cancer is spread thanks for your input.
Hi, Thanks for writing in. Your sister has had a total hysterectomy with removal of ovaries. On pathological analysis there are cancer cells found in the ovary specimen. She is on her last cycle of chemotherapy and due for radiotherapy. Form what you have written, I understand there is a clot in the leg deep views. This condition is known as deep vein thrombosis and confirmed by venous Doppler for lower limbs. This requires slow treatment with anticoagulants which are blood thinning agents. I reassure you that it is a side effect of cancer treatment and not a sign of cancer spread. God Bless your sister for a quick and complete recovery. Hope this helps

I reassure you that it is a side effect of cancer treatment and not a sign of cancer spread. God Bless your sister for a quick and complete recovery. Hope this helps
My daughter is having excruciating pain on the left lower side of the back (she has had back surgery several months ago) and it is causing her leg to buckle when the pain hits. She is also having diareha (dont know if its connected to that or not)
Hi, I have read your query. Since your daughter had back surgery previously. You should get x-ray of affected area of back in AP and Lateral view done, send us report or discuss it with your doctor. Only then further management can be advised. - Avoid heavy weight lifting pushing and pulling heavy objects, because it will further increase back pain. - You can take medicine like painkillers + muscle relaxants by discussing it with your doctor. You may need stronger painkillers which are available on prescription only. You can try ibuprofen or naproxen till you see your doctor. - Apply hot packs for 30 min in morning and evening. I hope it helps. You are welcome to ask further health related queries. Thanks. Chat Doctor.

I had laproscopic gallbladder removal surgery yesterday. I ve noticed, today, that both of my upper arms are warm and red. I haven t been rubbing them but the temperature difference is pretty significant. They are not tender to touch, no pain at all, but they are warmer than the rest of my body and quite red. Should I be concerned?
Dear madam, usually after laparoscopic surgeries TH increased level of air in abdomen can cause shoulder pain, especially the left one because of irritated Phoenix nerve. But skin redness and warmness aren't usually sign of it. It can be caused by skin infection or allergy or by joint inflammation. So you should do inflammatory markers and shoulder RTG if you are worried about it. Wish you good health,

Over a week ago I was attacked. I was dizzy at the hospital and could not sit up. Hospital staff did not take care of the issue because it was not hurting. We were more focused on the gash on my arm that needed stitches. I am still dizzy. The back of my head is tender and soft I lay down turn head to side, my eyes roll back in my head and I feel like a seizure is going to start. But I have never had one.
Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. Since still, you are in trauma of attack and getting tension, so the cause of your dizziness may be due to Tension. 2nd reason may be due to blunt hit (due to attack) in the back of head (in occipital region) and in this portion vital respiratory center present. Here cerebellum also present, so in my opinion according to nature of injury and severity get in M R I and also c t scan and depth of injury can be confirmed by orthopedic and neurosurgeon. Good luck,

I have multiple symptoms that are disturbing to me. Hair loss, difficult swallowing, (okay breathing), dentures fit poorly now, gums in pain, hands & feet red with hive like whelps,and pin &needles tingling to the extreme, this travels in different places of my body & can last from 5 minutes to days, swelling especially fingers & feet, hve a red dotted discoloration (like a sunburn) on my feet and ankles up my calves. Intense pain all the time, chest pain ( had cardio checked) pacemaker is fine,no heart attack & sob, will have sudden onset migraines & stutter on some words at random.. problems remembering things that just happened or within a reasonable time frame... random burst of tears
Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. You mentioned a lot of things here. let's focus on the discoloration of the skin. For which we can rule this out by taking a dermatologist opinion. Once he says nothing wrong with skin then we will look forward with the pulmonologist as breathing has to be efficient. Get a pulmonary function test done which will help you for this or a spo2 test to check the oxygen saturation levels in your blood. Usually due to malfunctioning of the respiratory system certain symptoms arise including the pain and aches. You need to meet up a physical therapist later on to get helped. Doing guided regular exercises will help your metabolism boosted and the cardio respiratory endurance at levels too. I hope you will get the best help at the nearest specialist. With the grace of God I wish you a speedy recovery

my baby is 81/2 month old, because of nurses ignorence and less knowledge baby ddnt accept mother feed, i tried alot bt not succssesful now i really want to start giving him mother milk bt how and is this possible at this age . and when i pump it just shows drops on the nipples...pls suggest..
Breast milk is the best food for a baby up to 6 months of age. After that semisolid need to be introduced as breast milk can no longer meet the demands, although breast milk can be continued till 1 year of age or more. But please note that breast milk is produced as per the requirement of the baby. If the baby is hungry, the baby sucks more and therefore more breast milk is produced. Once you introduce external feeds, the baby is no longer hungry and hence breast milk production falls. Breast milk production has already been depressed so long, and it is hard to start afresh at this point of time. Still, you may try giving Laconic granules 1 sachet in a glass of milk twice daily to the mother and see if it makes a difference in breast milk production. It should help at least to some extent.

Almost 2 years ago I got all 4 wisdom teeth removed. Since I got them removed, my bottom teeth that were removed I have a bump on both gums where the teeth use to be. I just thought it would go away and kind of forgot about it. Now starting about a month ago it has been bothering me, both sides have a small bump that I can see. It hurts a lot when I eat as well. What could it be? One of them has 2 small dots on it that could possibly maybe be a scab? That one hurts the most.
Hi, Thanks for asking the query, I would like to tell you that wisdom tooth is the last tooth to erupt in the oral cavity and is difficult to clean and causes inflammation of the surrounding tissue leading to formation of bump. I would suggest you to consult to a Dentist get a checkup done, plan for the removal of the tooth. Take a course of antibiotics and analgesics. At home take lukewarm saline rinses and antiseptic mouthwash gargles. Take care!
