Good morning .I am a general practitioner and my wife is on sevista 60 mg twice a week for 1month followed by once per week for 3 months now for DUB at perimenopausal age of 53 yrs.Next weekly dose due on next thursday. Today she is having pain over left illiac fossa since last 1/2 hour. Should I advice her to continue and if so for how long.
Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history of your wife. As she is under medication and now having pain in the Iliad fossa, she needs a thorough clinical examination. Also stopping the medicine for time being will be good. Also post examination may be an x-ray or an ultrasonography may be needed to see the possible factors. I feel this could be muscle spasm and can be treated with rest, icing and physical therapy. Her age is 53 so understanding what can be the cause needs attention. If the ultrasound report shows some changes then the treatment will be according planned. Regards Jay In Chat Doctor.
