Please help. Did you experience it too?

Hey :)

Sorry if there are some mistakes. I'm not fluent in english ^-^

Recently I was in a psychiatric hospital for two months. I've been diagnosed with clinical depression (recurrence), anxiety, OCD and avoidant + dependent personality disorder.

But right now I'm still kinda worrying about wether I've got schizophrenia or not.

I told the doctors in the hospital about the symptoms I've experienced in the past but they said that they think that I experienced this because of my depression.

My aunt has schizophrenia so it runs in my family. I should probably also tell you that my uncle also had some kind of problems (alcohol and drug addiction).

A few years ago I was home alone and suddenly there was a really loud BANG against the door (of the room I was in). It was so realistic and I panicked but nobody was there and there wasn't any logical explanation.

And a few months ago some weird things happened. It felt like an episode.
It felt like bugs were crawling on my legs (sometimes on my arms) but there wasn't anything.

During that time I've also been paranpoid about some things.
When there was a plane flying above our house I always thought *that plane is gonna crash into my house*. And when my dad had an accident the police called my mom and when I noticed that my mom was talking to the police I immediately thought *omg the police is calling because of me. They are gonna arrest me.* (even though I didn't do anything bad).

Sometimes I was afraid of photographs of people because it felt like they were watching me and I was afraid that they were gonna move.
When I wanted to take a pill (just for my hair) I thought that it was poisonous just because two words of the package were overlapping.
At some point some rooms and even my parents looked kinda different.

When I'm in public I always think something like *oh that person thinks (negative thing) about me* when people walk past me or even if cars drive past me.

I'm often talking fast and loud.

And during that period of time I often forgot words for example dishwasher and then I said machine wash thing.

When I was having a conversation with someone I suddenly totally forgot what we were talking about (like my brain was empty). I also can't really concentrate (sometimes I couldn't even read a book).

I also reacted inappropriately to sad news. For exmaple: I told my mom about people who died in an accident and I kinda smiled a bit (even though I knew that it wasn't funny) and my mom even said to me "That's not funny.".

When I was hearing music I often thought that my mom was talking to me even though she wasn't.

Sometimes I thought that there was a spider on the wall but when I looked again there was no spider.

At some point I saw a dead body laying on the floor for a second (that happened twice) and I also some kitchen tools looked like a cut off head for a second.

Noises were and are still very annoying to me. Especially the ones that aren't loud. They seem to be getting louder and louder and I'm starting to get angry and feel like I could freak out any second (I would never hurt anybody though).

When these things happened I told my psychiatrist about it and she said that she doesn't think that I got schizophrenia because I realize that these things are weird. But then she prescribed me Risperdal at the same day and when I got home I googled it and read that it is used to treat schizophrenia. Maybe she just wanted to try if it works idk? Well I was taking Prozac and this Risperdal and I started to feel better really fast. But I had to stop taking it because of the side effects. Since then I didn't experience things like that anymore.

But a few days ago I woke up and it felt like I was drunk (even though I didn't drink alcohol) and I was feeling very very anxious without a reason.

Now I'm really afraid that these things are going to happen again.

I know the psychiatrist said that she doesn't think that I got schizophrenia but maybe she is wrong? I mean if it runs in my family I got a higher chance of having it...

If you got schizophrenia or know much about it please message me and tell me about your first symptoms.

Thank you :)

The difference

Hello there guys, I was just wondering and confused as to what is the difference between a neurologist and a MS specialist. I know it may sound a bit rhetorical. I also read somewhere that a girl's mom died from MS, I was told that it's not fatal and its scares me so much.


The difference

Pain in neck and shoulders

I've been getting a terrible pain in my neck, mostly up under my skull behind my ear and my shoulders are really tight. Is there a fms tender point up under the skull? It's mostly on the right side but sometimes moves to the left. My shoulders feel like I'm carrying bricks on them 24/7. I also get a pain right between my shoulder blades in the middle of my back. I know shoulder pain is one of the problems of fms, but what about up under the skull? I also have a stuffed up head. Sinus?? The weather here in FL is getting bad with a tropical storm headed our way. My back is so stiff and painful today. Ugh My heating pad is my friend lately.


Pain in neck and shoulders

hi new member needing some hope please

Hello everyone

I am a new member posting for reassurance if that's OK.

4 weeks ago today I had my gallbladder removed after it caused an acute pancreatitis.

I am very worried because I am still experiencing pain in my chest and back ( similar to rib pain). I went to emergency dept yesterday as I was frightened something was wrong and after blood tests and a stomach and chest xray. I was told everything was normal and that there was no issues with the pancreas ( levels were normal) so I was sent home to continue with pain relief and see how it goes.

Since coming home I have made the mistake of googling and have really frightened myself by coming across a condition called "chronic pancreatitis" and I am now really scared that maybe I have that and this pain is now permanent.

The pain I am experiencing now is similar to what I was experiencing before
but no where near as severe and there is no fever or anything this time.

I guess I'm asking for hope that there is still a chance of me recovering and getting rid of this pain and also really hoping that its not the chronic pancreatitis that is permanent.

I would appreciate any positive replies as I am an anxious person.
In would be most grateful to anyone kind enough to reply to me

Hope this all makes sense, in a bit of a panic here
Thank you

After cast removal exercises (ankle)

Hello!

My brother had an ankle injury. He was in hard cast for two or so months and now out of cast. Right now, he cant move his ankle so his foot would make 90 degrees to his leg, I mean he can but he have to really force it. Folks from hospital says he has contracture and he needs physical theraphy. What I understand from my google searches this happens to pretty much everyone in cast, long term immobilizations cause contracture. Normally flexible stuff (ligaments, muscles, tendons?) becomes stiff etc.

Now, while he is waiting a call from hospital so he can start his physical theraphy (and he have to wait at least one more week they just told us) I figured he should start doing some exercises. Question is how hard he should do that? How hard and how fast? Should he force it or just move as much as his body lets him. I see two possible ways.

1. Keep moving that ankle but only as much as your body let you. Don't force it at all but keep doing light exercises, those light exercises will make whatever got stiff flexible again.

2. You gotta force it. At least a little bit? Then take painkillers? Doing light exercises all day won't help, you have to open that lock?

Thanks in advance.

How long for it to work? On doxepin again after six weeks off

Oh I did a stupid thing. I had been taking doxepin 25 mg for many years until six weeks ago when I stopped cold turkey. I stopped because I really needed food allergy testing and doxepin contains an antihistamine so I couldn't test while on it. I felt pretty well for a few weeks and thought I had pushed through but at the six week point relapsed badly. So I resumed it two nights ago and I could tell it was going to help, but I still have anxiety symptoms. Has anyone else ever started it again and how long did it take to feel full effects? I read it can take 2-6 weeks, is that true? Oh how I regret not tapering. I actually tried to quit another time and the same thing happened but I wasn't off as long. Feeling very stupid today.

Having trouble swallowing....please help~!

Hi!!
When i was young maybe around 11 i had an ultimate fear of swallowing all foods. Im not sure when it started exactly or when it stopped but i remember having it for a while. Im pretty sure it is called dysphagia. I researched this yesterday and I'm almost certain this is what i had. I didnt have it checked or anything..im sure its because mum just thought i was being mental. Anyway it luckily didnt last tooooo long and I'm fine now.

Although i seem to have a big fear of swallowing pills, which i know isn't uncommon but i wanted to tips and help? Im 16 years old and I'm really struggling to take pills. Ive caught a bad flu and have to take tablets for the first time. i have been able to take 3 (with ALOT of struggle - it takes a long time and i gag + freak out) I tried to take another tonight but i just couldn't. I would appreciate it if someone could help me out!! Does anyone know why i may be so afraid? I can't eat Passionfruit and i hate eating watermelon because of the seeds. (they are just a few examples if it helps).

:) Thank you!! <3


Having trouble swallowing....please help~!

New here and years of dental problems

Hello, I found this board when searching about my dental issues. I think I may have first posted in health by mistake,
I am considering a partial lower denture after suffering 2 years of botched procedures. I am very afraid because I have read how much trouble people have with lower partials.
I have been in some degree of pain for 2 years now. I never thought I would be in this situation of losing teeth. I kept up with my cleanings and exams although it is harder for me now because my dental anxiety has escalated to dental phobia from going through so many terrible appointments. I can no longer comfort myself by saying the fear of the appointment is worse than the actual procedure.. because all my appointments have far exceeded my worst fears.
2 years ago I had all my teeth except wisdoms and had not even had a cavity in decades. Now I have been through more dental work in 2 years than most people go through in a life time.
It started with replacing a filling that had chipped. They replaced my old large amalgam with a larger composite supported by a pin. The pin fractured my tooth. I did not know it at the time, I just knew I was in agony an never chewed on that side again.
after multiple trips to the dentist and taking 12 advil and 6 Tylenol a day for the agony with no relief I was told to have the tooth crowned. I did so and the pain did not stop. Then I was told to have it root canaled. I did and the pain did not stop. I was told to have a surgery to cut off the root tip, I refused and demanded extraction.
The oral surgeon who extracted it told me it was fractured and that was the cause of my pain and nothing would have saved it. So I had all those appointments of torture for nothing.
I could not get used to the hug gap (it was a first molar) though I wish I had tried.
I opted for a bridge because I was too afraid of an implant. I had my healthy second molar crown prepped and a notch cut out of my premolar to support a wing.
My new bridge did not fit but was cemented in anyway.it had huge gaps all the way around and all of the porcelain and some of the metal was sheared off so I could even close my mouth. I could not chew on it at all, even soft foods.
It was cut off 2 weeks later and a new one made.
That did not fit either. it had a short margin which exposed the back of my tooth and again all the porcelain and some metal sheared off. I could not chew on it.
I went to another dentist who told me that my tooth had been under prepared and that is why no bridge would fit me. he said there was lab error and dental error.
I suffered for months and then had the second bridge cut off.
a new one was made and it was a beautiful expensive zirconia.
It needed much adjusting. I had it for 8 days when on the day after the third bite adjustment it cracked. It had been adjusted too thin and was too weak to chew on. It could not be repaired and had to be cut off.
When cutting it off the dentist could not get me numb enough and I was crying and begging for another shot. he said another shot would not do anything. He continued to drill, cut, tap, hit, pull, pry, and chip pieces of zirconia off. When he pulled the last piece off a chunk of my tooth went with it still embedded in the cement. Now my new bridge which I already paid for would not fit. and I do not want to try to support a bridge with a broken tooth anyway. He offered no apology for breaking my tooth. He did say he was not sure if it broke all the way to my jaw bone.
My broken tooth is now crowned but I do not feel it is recovering from the trauma of being in and out of 3 bridges, 4 temporary crowns, 1 temp bridge, and now this ill fitting cerec crown which has bits if bristles from a brush he used on it embedded in the cement and poking out of my gums.
I am too afraid to go through another root canal, and with such little tooth structure left doubt a root canal would last long anyway. I am seeing an oral surgeon to see if he will just extract it. I think It may be getting infected, it is not throbbing but it is very sore deep in my gums where the roots are.
I would like him to refer me to where a decent dentist can just make me a partial lower denture to replace my 2 molars. I am too afraid of implants after so many botched procedures. I am also afraid of lower partial dentures sine reading how bothersome they can be.
Any words of advice or encouragement would be greatly appreciated.

Hsv1 genital recurrences?

My boyfriend has told me that he has hsv1 genital, he has recently had a outbreak of 3 tiny bumps near the head of his penis. We have only been together for about 10 months and this is the second time he has had a break out. I would like to know if it is common for somone with hsv1 to have atleast 2 or more a year in the genital region? As I am starting to doubt whether it is hsv1 and more likely to be hsv2. i am now also worrying that I may have it myself, as I didn't realise that you can also catch it if your partner has no symptoms. This also believes me to think that he hasn't been properly diagnosed as the information he has given me seems incorrect. He said one of his ex girlfriends had cold sores on her mouth a lot and that's where he believes he caught it from. Which is possible. However I doubt he had bloods tests and maybe just a visual examination,

TriVia Injections

I am a 76 year old guy who has suffered ED for eight years after suffering two strokes. I have successfully been using Tri Mix injections for the past four months. We are sexually active now usually three times weekly and two to three times with great oral sex. I am hard for usually three hours with injections of .6. I get somewhat semi erect with oral sex and enough to climax. I have been having some nice erections in the night and mornings. I wake and masturbate some to exercise my penis. I read in Men's Health that masturbating is good for your sex life and ED. My wife enjoys watching me and giving me a hand. This is great for a normal sex life as well. If any guys have questions just ask me. I am uncut and 6.7 inches. I like clock rings and been pumping to increase blood flow and helping. Yes, any guy can continue to have a great sex life. Don't be ashamed and ask your urologist for ways to get active! Your partner will love you even more.

Problems after ankle operation

I have been confined to bed for two weeks due to an ankle operation. The ankle is not painful but my digestive system is really messed up!

After three days a I was able to pass small stools rather painfully almost every two hours. I now have piles. I also have stomach cramps. I dread having to hobble to the toilet on my walking frame for another round of discomfort.

I am taking Celebrex and a blood thinning medication. Does anyone have any strategies for coping with these problems which are bothering me more than the sore ankle?

Thank you.


Problems after ankle operation

Abdominal Pain and Discomfort, Nausea, Fatigue

Hi!

Well, I seem to be suffering from a myriad of symptoms. I never had that great a GI system. Had severe daily nausea from mid teens all the way until early 20s. GERD diagnosis at 18. Most of that subsided mid 20s - late 30s, except a period of time when every time I ate (late 20s) I had almost immediate diarrhea. After several months it resolved.

Usually had just the opposite problem though until then. Literally, I was never in the bathroom except maybe twice a MONTH.

Had an ulcer on my colon removed in 1996. I was 27.

My surgeon ex husband diagnosed me as lactose intolerant in 2004.

Since 2011 I have had intermittent lower abdominal discomfort (that sometimes is actual PAIN). Occasional bleeding. I've had 3 CT scans over the past 5 years. The most recent three months ago showed "focal inflammation" on part of my transverse colon and the radiologist suggested further studies but my GP just wrote the whole thing off.

That study accompanied an odd sensation in my lower right abdomen that literally felt like I had a tennis ball in my guts just under my ribcage (but no obvious lumps when pressing the area). It originated some inches lower, so I thought maybe an obstruction? Nothing like that mentioned in the report.

I'd been experiencing worsening fatigue and random sweats since before that, and now it's ridiculous. I have a hard time sleeping as I start sweating significantly (sweats also happen during the day). I have to be in bed for about ten hours before I feel I can actually get anything done. The fatigue is out of control - take a shower, I feel like I need a nap. Do a load of laundry, feel like I need a nap. Sometimes I do just collapse again and take a 2 hour nap. I am so exhausted that I cannot even think. I've had days of marathon 20 hour sleep sessions.

Past two weeks, I am also dealing with insane nausea and stomach pains. Actual stomach (not intestines). Sometimes it feels like an icy pain middle of sternum slightly to the right that comes in waves or pulses. The only thing that stays down is turkey on bread with some bell pepper. Before, I could at least eat a bean burrito. Not anymore. My food intake is very restricted, yet my abdomen is a bit puffy. My face has some mild swelling, too.

Tired, dizzy, nauseated, hurting...*** is going on??? I am 47 next week. I used to be a figure competitor, and in amazing condition. Always was either the skinny girl or the super tone girl the first 43 years of my life. Past few years I'm just a weak, squishy mess. I at least did a few 5k early this year, I can't even think of exercise right now, it's everything to just get through the day. I have gained 15% more weight in past two years.

Any ideas???

Can't stop using crutches after peroneal tendon surgery

I had surgery almost 7 weeks ago weeks ago for peroneal tendon subluxation, I cannot put full weight on my ankle and walk with crutches partial weight bearing in a walking boot. My surgeon was concerned that I was still using crutches at all at this point, and he wants me to stop using crutches and go from the walking boot into an ankle brace only. It hurts alot to put full weight on my ankle. For anyone who has this surgery, how long was it until you could walk without crutches, full weight bearing?

Pimple on penis

So a few days ago I popped a small pimple on my penis, the next day it was big, red swollen, full of puss and blood and hurt when touched.
For circumstances I'd rather not discuss I couldn't see a doc up until now.
Between Saturday and today the big *** pimple or whatever it was, popped, blood and puss came out, it got swollen but then the swelling kind of subsided, not fully though. Now there is like a soft scab and swelling around it, although it is much less than what it was, but it is noticeable.

I'm really scared of having this on my penis for the rest of my life, honestly I've enough problems with women without having something on my penis.
Will this go away or am I stuck with it, also if it does form a scar, do you think it would impact the penis aesthetically wise, I mean it's not like it's the best looking penis ever I mean do you think the potential scar might be a problem with future partners or just a small barely noticeable scar.

Prostatitis and Urithritis

I had a cystoscopy done today. I started having problems about 4 months ago after I had to get catheterized. Good news from the procedure is that I do not have any bladder cysts or urethral strictures. Bad news is I have a very inflamed prostate and urethra. So far I have taken Cipro (two rounds; 10 days and 21 days), Bactrim (14 days), and Flomax throughout all without much benefit. I am supposed to have a semen culture done in a week to see exactly what the bacteria is. My question is if anyone has had a bad case of prostatitis and urithritis and what the outcome was? Thank you for your help.

GERD/Acid Reflux causing dry mouth?

This has been driving me crazy. Underneath my tongue and around my mouth are really dry, it's very annoying. Could this be my GERD acting up again? This seems to make my anxiety worse, anyone else experiencing this as well?


GERD/Acid Reflux causing dry mouth?

Any of you have this symptom?

I had sex with my wife a couple weeks ago and have had balanitis ever since. I have also had the urge to urinate, even after I have gone since then too. I am circumcised and wash daily. I am 48 and have only been with my wife since the age of 18. I am somewhat sure that she has only been with me. I have never had this happen before. Also, two weeks prior to that had a hell of a rash in the webbing between fingers.

I have been using lotrimin on penis for several days and it does not seem to be helping, maybe it is bacterial? I have lost a pound but eat less when I do my hikes and I have always drank a lot of liquids, its summer. I go to my Dr. on 9th, normal follow up.

Just wondering if this is common in diabetes?

Ear Popping

I became interested in this site when I saw posts about constant ear popping when trying to settle for sleep. Of course I could not comment until I had joined which I am pleased to do.
The only relief from the popping I have ever found was by blocking the ear with wax earplugs. This does appear to at least deaden it enough to sleep.
I am aware the thread may be closed but this is my first attempt at posting

What's the safest way ahead?

Hi there!
I have a question. Briefly, I'm 30 y old female and have tested HPV+ in November 2015, I had a LEEP treatment and now awaiting results from my most recent cervical smear test.

I have also been diagnosed with tongue cancer in March 2016 but the tissue tested negative for HPV, so, I think the virus has been implicated in the cancer only indirectly...

My current partner wants to perform unprotected oral sex on me even though he's aware of my HPV and cancer history. How big are the risks of him catching HPV and developing throat or oral cancer? Also, could he give HPV back to me through deep kissing?

What's the safest way ahead (protected oral sex forever???) Thank you for your input!

Chronic Diaper Wear And Testicular Development

Hello. I am a 25 year old male that was born with spina bifida. Since birth in have been wearinf diapers because of the incontinence caused by my condition. A few months ago i got an artificial urinary sphincter implanted and i no longer require pads. Since i had the sphincter inserted i have been trying to learn more about myself and improve my condition as much as possible which led me here with a particular question. I believe i was a late bloomer as far as puberty goes. I cannot remember the exact age but i do remember being one of the last boys to grow pubic hair, masturbate and ejaculate. I grew facial hair at a much later age than most other boys and i still not have a full beard. Recently i also discovered that my testicle size is a little below average. My first comparison was actors in porn videos that had significantly larger testicles than myself. I brushed that off as them being outliers and were probably picked because of those qualities. But recently i read somewhere that the average testicle is about one inch in diameter, about the size of a small walnut. Mine however can be compared with green grapes rather than walnuts. They dont even come close to the 1 inch diameter suggested by my reading. So my question is this, could wearing a diaper for such an extended period of time and especially through puberty have an effect on my development? My reasoning is that since testicles require a temperature of a few degrees below body temp and i was essentially soaking mine in body temperature and higher throughout the day and night, it may have had an effect on both my gonad size and development of secondary sex characteristics. Another think to keep in mind is that i am a fraternal twin 5'6" tall while my perfectly healthy brother is 6'5" and all other males in my family are above 6'2". If anybody can weigh in on this i would much appreciate it.

Can rotator cuff partial tear heal itself?

I was diagnosed 6 months ago with a partial rotator cuff tear. Doc sent me for PT feeling it would help. Didn't feel I'd gotten good treatment so stopped after 4 sessions as it was making it worse. Since then pain has been negligible to none, have full range of motion, etc. Haven't seen a need for intervention - until a couple days ago when pain started again and differently than before. Now it's easing off.

My dilemma - visit the ortho, get another MRI, and possibly corrective surgery or let time pass to see if it'll heal?

Any experience with non-treatment would be appreciated.

Bunion Revision

It's been 10 years since I had my original bunionectomy and bunionettectomy and I actually just assumed that since I was only 30 at the time that this was normal, but now the more I read I guess maybe not. My left foot is still okay, only a slight bunion, but the right drives me crazy. Throbs after going for walks, can't wear pretty shoes cause they hurt too much and it's actually worse than the first time because my big toe actually overlaps the second toe a little. My original surgeon no longer does surgery, but perhaps that's for the best. I have an appointment with another podiatrist on Friday morning and hoping they give me the go ahead to get surgery scheduled so I can be back on my feet before the holidays. Also back when I had my previous surgery the podiatrist commented on the fact that my right foot turns in quite a bit when I walk...he said my whole leg is actually turned and that eventually I'd probably start to have hip and back problems from it. Well guess what for the past 7-8 years I've suffered from severe back pain that no one can seem to diagnose other than fibromyalgia. He had said the only way to correct that would be basically break my leg and rotate the whole thing...which sounded pretty scary...now at 40 and facing disability from the back pain, I'm wandering if that would help any.

Lungs won't expand

I have had a problem for a while where I can't get a deep enough breath. I don't smoke, have asthma, anxiety, allergies, or anything else. My heart rate gets really high sometimes. I've had all kinds of tests on my heart. What is going on? Also, I am regularly active and am a runner. The problem doesn't happen when I'm working out.

My doctor says I need to use an antifungal for lactobacillus overgrowth??

This doesn't seem right to me. Everything I read online says not to use antifungals for this, and to use things to raise the ph. My doctor says women prone to yeast have this overgrowth. Could she really just be wrong?

Bloating and Weight

I am a runner. I run 5-8 kilometers a day. No matter how much I ran my weight wouldn't go down. And to top it all off I suffered from bloating...I bloated so badly that people either thought I was pregnant or that I had some form of stomach tumours.

I went to the doctors and he did every test he could think of and all came back negative. He gave me Dicetel but this only worked after I was bloated.

I felt like I was living a bad dream. I hate fairly healthy, I exercised but yet my weight was high (I considered high) and I bloat.

Then one day a friend of mine told me about a supplement she was taking because she too suffered from bloating. The supplement was plant-based and non-GMO so I thought I would give it a try. I am happy to report that after a month not only have I completely stopped bloating but I am losing weight and inches. The supplement was originally developed to help Type 2 diabetics to lose weight but the supplement has so many benefits for your gut!

If anyone out there is suffering like I did and would like more information please let me know. I just want to let people know that there is an option out there!

Anyone with CP try Nike Flyease shoes?

I am intrigued by the Nike Flyease shoes which are supposed to be easy to get on and off for my daughter with CP. I am wondering if they offer enough support for her. Anyone try them?

Experiences with Forteo

After suffering two stress fractures (in left fibula and right metatarsal) in two weeks' time for no reason at all, I had a DexaScan, which showed osteoporosis -- worst score -3.6 in upper spine. Before the fractures and diagnosis I thought nothing of twisting, lifting, reaching, etc., but now I'm nervous. Although I don't usually like to take medications, I will likely start on Forteo soon. How have others fared on Forteo? Have your activity and energy levels stayed pretty much the same? What about after Forteo? I don't have a good understanding of what caused the bad numbers (except perhaps surgical menopause) so I want to spend the 2 years I'm on Forteo figuring out any nutritional or hormonal imbalances and setting up a plan for maintaining or improving bone health afterwards. Any experiences or advice you'd like to share is welcome. My city is short on support mechanisms.

I'm also trying to figure out how to do weight-bearing exercises when my bones won't currently bear any weight!

Bloating

Hi,

I am a 43 year old female who considers herself fairly healthy. I run 5-8 kilometers a day and try to eat healthy...not always succeeding but I try, lol

Anyway for years I suffered with bloating...so badly I looked pregnant and the bloating hurt. I went to the doctor and got tested for a variety of things but all came up negative. I thought I was losing my mind. I would eliminate certain foods but this didn't help. I would take Dicetel and this would only help AFTER I was bloated....who wants to be bloated.

One day I read a friend's post about a supplement that she is taking....so I thought what the heck and decided to take it too. I was desperate. The supplements were a little pricey but I didn't care....I figured my health was more important. Well I am happy to report that I bloat no more! The supplements are Non-GMO and plant based! And the kicker is I have started to lose weight as well.

If any person was like me desperate to get rid of their bloat please let me know as I thought I would live with the bloat for the rest of my life!

Thanks for reading!

Clonazepam and Beer

I have been on .5 Clonazepam for 10 years, I have always drank a few beers here and there. I have never had anything even close to a problem. I came across a google on the topic today and could not believe anyone has ever had a interaction problem with this. I am reading things like abuse, blackouts, dizziness and what not. I have always taken the .5 of Clonazepam in the morning and If I have a few beers it is at night. My Doctor is well aware that I am on this medication and drink beer. I by no means abuse the Clonazepam for buzz reasons. Anyone else ever not had a problem with moderate drinking and Klonipin???

Nortriptyline question

HI

I hope everyone is well and not to dizzy today.

I went back to my ENT neuro specialist yesterday, for BPPV episode and he did an eply. But my main dizziness is MAV. I have be very reluctant to take any meds. I did try amitriptyline a couple of months ago and had some vision issues and a bad reaction, I think it was an extreme panic attack but he took me off of it anyway.

Yesterday I spoke to him about the nortriptyline and asked if he could give me the 25mg so I could cut it in quarters to try. I know that sounds crazy but i'm very sensative to meds so I figure a very low dose and maybe side effects won't be so bad.

My question is has anyone here taken amitriptyline and had side effects then take nort and had lesser side effects? Did it help with you dizziness?

My dizziness started as a rocking/swaying sensation, then moved into other sensations like, leaning feeling, bobbing, swinging back and forth, now I'm having falling back feelings, when I stand, sit, walk. Bending forward is bad to, I have headaches, neck pain, nausea, anxiety every day from this, depression and frustration.

But if anyone here has taken both meds could you please answer.

Thank you

DIzzy and can't breathe

I often get dizzy and feel like I can't get a full breath of air. It lasts for hours at a time and happens every day. I'm not doing anything strenuous when it happens but it is really freaking me out. Doctors don't know what is going on.

How much worse is a full upper vs a partial?

My question is, how much worse is it to live with a full upper verses a partial upper denture? Some background: When I was a teenager, I had four upper teeth pulled for braces. I then went from having over-crowded crooked teeth to, straight with huge gaps. Every molar has fillings or a crown. I've had periodontal disease since I was in my 20's (now in my 60's) and have had the gum surgery all around. I am not an implant candidate, since my bone isn't healthy enough for them. The Periodontist has recommended I have six more upper teeth extracted (leaving six upper # 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13). I've been given the option of getting a partial or have all of the uppers pulled and a full upper denture. I've heard partials are easier to live with, but it's not going to be very good looking for me. The teeth will have to be big to fill the space on the one side and I'll still have the gaps on the other. I'm really attracted to the idea of, for once in my life, having good looking upper teeth. But, I don't want to let vanity (especially at my age, where that is becoming a lost cause) to override being more confident/comfortable eating/living. It sounds like the teeth I do have left up there, won't last the rest of my life and I will eventually have to go to a full upper denture in maybe 5 years. Do I go for the full, beautiful, uppers that I really want (but once they are gone, no other option remains), or play it safe and do the partial for the years remaining on the teeth still there and have funny looking teeth that aren't even natural. How foolish is vanity when it comes to eating comfort? How much worse is it to live with a full upper denture verses a partial upper?

Cytolytic vaginosis? Too much lactobacillus?

Hi there,

I'm new to this forum, but I wanted to see if I could get some insight from someone who might know what's going on with me. So I've dealt with vaginal issues since I got my first uti when I was 16. I've had my share of yeast infections, utis, and bv a couple times. Overtime I've learned how to treat these things myself, so I don't have to go to the doctor so often. I take probiotics, and use boric acid suppositories which always cures a yeast infection for me. The point of this post is, I got a uti recently, which made my vagina burn terribly, and after that was taken care of, I was still having the burning, but was sure it was yeast now. So I started treating for yeast, but it wasn't getting better like it usually does. It seemed to be getting worse. So I went to the doctor today, and she said I have a lot of lactobacillus, and she says this causes yeast?? Isn't that the good bacteria that prevents yeast infections? So I did some research and read about cytolytic vaginosis, and seems to fit with how I've been feeling. But the doctor prescribed me more antifungals, which I'm hesitant to use. Do you think years of trying to prevent and treating yeast could have cause this overgrowth? What should I do?

Melanoma nodular - talk me off ledge (I hope)

I have no history of skin cancer but have had some atypical moles. I'm in early 40s. I recently read an article that discussed nodular melanoma - which I did not know about - and it reminded me of something and freaked me out.

4 years ago I noticed an unusual looking dark red raised angry looking pimple like thing on my side near the arm pit. It was unusual for me and I don't have acne. I applied cider vinegar on it several times over a few days, along with a bandaid and aqua photo and as I recall it sort of popped then bled a little then dried up and healed.

I have two tiny faint slightly raised freckle like marks where it was located.

I was sorry I used cider vinegar on it after I did and wondered if I did something I shouldn't.

Could I have removed a nodular melanoma that could have continued to grow internally? The article I read described these as pimple like and has me worried.

Weight loss after gallbladder removal

I had my gallbladder removed 5 months ago. I had a HORRIBLE gallbladder attack that sent me to the ER, I stayed in the hospital four days in pain and starving (wasn't allowed to even have water) before I could have surgery, but that's another story. Fast forward to now, I feel great. The surgery was great, virtually no pain from the surgery and I recovered quickly.

The only thing that has me wondering is the large amount of weight that I've lost. In five months I've lost nearly 40lbs. My appetite has changed, I can not usually eat much. So, I eat small meals, and I've been struggling to keep my calorie intake up. I still feel good, not tired or lacking energy though. However I'm getting really close to being considered "underweight" according to my BMI, especially if this losing trend keeps up. I'M 5'9 and 135lbs. Has anyone else had this issue?

cluster migraines with pressure in ears

I have been diagnosed with cluster migraines. I wake up in the middle of the night vomiting and very nauseous then I realize I have a migraine. I saw doctors and a neurologist. He said that the pressure in my head and ears was from the migraine. He did an MRI, came back negative, and has tried me on all types of medications and I get severe reactions to the medications. I am using a migraine tracking application now. He has recommended botox injections. I am in the process to see if this will be covered by my insurance. Has anyone else had these symptoms and if so is there anything out there that works?

Sex as punishment

Ok this is hard for me to discuss. Something drives me to seek out sex with a man (I am male) but only if he punishes my bottom until i can't take it anymore then he can use me. In my mind I am punishing myself for something but I don't know what? Sometimes when alone I punish myself with a belt, paddle, or cord. Any ideas why? I am messed up-got it!

Herpes/friction? Plz help

My boyfriend has 3 tiny bumps near the head of his penis, they sort of looked yellowish in colour, he says that it's a herpes outbreak. I'm unsure as it didn't look as bad as any of the pictures I've seen on the Internet, I am wondering whether it could be a friction burn? Although we haven't had sex for a couple of weeks now. Would a friction burn cause these bumps? Or is it more likely to be his herpes flaring up?

Indicators in a cystoscopy?

Hello - A family member was just scheduled for a cystoscopy after a CT scan showed a "shadow" on his bladder.

My questions to this message board are: 1) is this a normal follow up procedure?, 2) what questions should we be asking the doctor?, 3) what other indicators would point to the presence of a malignancy?, 4) are there other outcomes of a shadow on the bladder besides tumors?

Thank you.

Dark Spot on MRI Scan

Hi, I am a 21 Year old Male who has recently had an MRI scan. MRI scan was scheduled due to some head pain on left side and minor numbness on face and arm. After i received the MRI disk, I was told to just make an appt with my doctor and give them the disk. I decided to look at it myself even though i really have no knowledge of the human brain. I think i know an abnormality when i see it.

What should i expect? Should I wait for my appt next week? What should I do?

Polyps and bowel movements ????

I have recently been advised (after an ultrasound for muscular pain), that I have two gallbladder polyps and a simple cyst on my kidney.

The gallbladder polyps are 5mm and 2mm.

I had no symptoms..except the occasional twinge /dull pain under my right rib cage.

Doctor said see you in a year for a repeat ultrasound..no surgery unless they get bigger. For reference i am 30, female , thin and do not fit the typical profile..just my luck.

The only other issue i have is that i have had soft bowel movements for the last few months... they;re soft and sticky and occasional bouts of loose stools too.
They usually look like a soft serve ice cream but come out shaped (like bananas )

Can this be related?


Polyps and bowel movements ????

Odd symptom of soft stools ...feeling stressed.

Hi

A few months ago i started the Paleo diet in an attempt to get fit for a trip. My whole life i have never been regular toilet go-er..usually day 3 is my BM day...anyway i found that this diet made me even more constipated. The BM wouldn't be that of constipation, it just created longer time frames between my BMs.

To combat this, I took fibre gummies and taking the recommended dose of 1-2 did nothing so i took 4...every day.

I started going regularly but stool would be softish..like a soft serve. Most of the time it would have shape...like a small banana..but in the end it would look like a soft serve..it was sticky and i always felt relief because i felt like I emptied a lot.

I went on my holiday and came back and my stools haven't changed. They're still soft serve even though i am eating carbs and other food and have been while on holidays.

I don't feel sick but the fact that my stool isn't broken up and floating is really concerning . When i flush, i always have to flush more then once ..or 3 times.

I don't have pain except for some mild twinges around the belly button now and then.

I recently had an ultrasound for something else and they found 2 polyps on my gallbladder and i am wondering if anyone knows if my bowel movements could be related?

For reference, I also had a blood test (but not avery detailed one) for something else...and i have noticed that I've improved certain nutrients like iron..so i am definitely absorbing nutrients despite the sticky stools.

I have an appointment with my doctor to run some more tests.. but how is all this sounding?

For reference i am 30, female and thin. I don't smoke or don't drink..nor do i have family history of cancer but then again i am NOT the ideal candidate for gallbladder polyps yet i fall in that unlucky 1% of the population!!!

I can't stop and think about things like colon cancer, or something equally sinister.
:(

arthritis in both hands, need some help

Both my thumbs ae severely effected by arthritis as well as Dupuytrens contracture & arthritis disease in my hands. Surgery on my thumbs will cause a huge flair with collagen build up in plams causing fingers to contract more. Have had to have two fingers released with a protien injection called Xiaflex. They were frozen at 90' . Painful but after a few weeks the fingers are manunipulated and completely released and opened again. Yay!

With no strength in my thumbs always dropping things and worse life can be a bit tricky. I wear a splint glove in both hands nightly. Keeps my fingers from curling/contracting but is very painful on the thumb joints.

Does anyone have any ideas what splints or treatments they have used to refer! Most Drs. Usually throw their hands up and say not much they can do with the double wammy diagnosis in my hands also carpel tunnel in both wrists.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Usually experience is the best source to search for answers.

9 days after mono diagnosis my son is still in agony

This is about my healthy 17 year old son.. Day 1 at walk in clinic neg strep test. Given a shot and antibiotics. Day 4 he is worse. Back to clinic. Positive Mono test. Given steroids and Lortab for extreme throat pain. Day 8 pain is no better maybe worse. Saw pediatrician. Given stronger steroids and told to continue antibiotics and that he'd be better tomorrow. Day 10 went to ER for severe throat pain. His tonsils were so swollen they were touching and lymph nodes so big the airway was almost blocked. Admitted to hospital. Spent 2 days and 2 nights in hospital getting IV STEROIDS, PAIN MEDS, and antibiotics. Day 12 came home from hospital. His neck swelling has gone down. Alternating Lortab and Toradol every 3 hours. He still has severe throat pain. Doesn't want to eat or drink because it hurts. Has lost 9 pounds in 12 days. When will this end? It's killing me!

my uterus hurts!

I recently stopped using the NuvaRing after my last period (15 through 18 August). Since about Aug 22 my uterus has been feeling super bloated and sore. When I walk I have pain, when I work out I have pain, when I need to go to the bathroom (both 1 and 2) and also when I actually go to the bathroom, I have pain. It's not super bad, but bothersome enough to know it's not normal, if that makes sense. If I were to have ovulated already it would have been yesterday or today. Has anyone else experienced this kind of pain after stopping their birth control? I don't think I am pregnant because the last time I had intercourse was Aug 20. Just wondering if it could be something to worry about or should I just wait it out like I was planning on doing. Thanks!!

Ear pain and bleeding after using debrox

Hey there. About a month ago my left ear became blocked by earwax. I tried a couple of methods of removal before trying Debrox. I used it twice before i finally got a huge chunk of wax out. Everything felt fine and i could hear out of the ear again finally. I thought everything was back to normal. And then 3-4 days later the ear is clogged again. I used debrox again and got another huge chunk out and was able to hear again. Its been like this for about 3 weeks now. I use debrox, get a lot of wax out and ears feel clear. I used it on the right ear about 4 days ago just to clean it and now its clogged up too and am unable to hear out of it. Ive found a small amount of blood on a Qtip and there is slight pain. Just trying to figure out where the blood is from and why my ears are clogging up with wax so rapidly.

Requesting Info Re:Women with Bladder Cancer

I'm presently undergoing my fourth time around with intravesical treatment for bladder cancer. The last two times were BCG. My first treatment put me in Remission for 2 years, and it was a medication starting with "m". Now I'm barely getting six months with BCG. My doctor is very quiet and mostly explains something when I ask a question, and his answers are not always clear. I feel like I'm flying blind. My cancer is small but aggressive. I'd like to have a game plan in case (before) it metastises. Can you tell me what Steps I should take to take charge of my condition? I can change doctors and I'm thinking about getting a second opinion once I am finished with this set of treatments. This is what's left of my life and I wish I knew the medical plan of action. I don't want to be led slowly by the hand to chemotherapy that may not work. I may prefer hospice.

Can someone explain colposcopy results

So I've had abnormal paps in the past (LSIL, ASCUS) had annual pap in July, but there was a "lab error" in which they did not do an HPV test. Had to go back in for another pap 4 weeks later and was told positive for high risk hpv (not 16 or 18) so...had a colposcopy about a week and a half later. During the colpo, the doctor was saying that my cervix looked good and that I shouldn't be concerned. (I was already pretty nervous as I've had a few abnormal paps in the past...I'm only
25 and I've been getting paps since 16). Fast forward about another week and a half and I get a call from the RN saying that they want me to come back in for ANOTHER colpo because the one before was basically inconclusive and not enough cells for diagnosis.

My results for the most recent colpo are as follows...

Final Diagnosis

A. Cervix, Endocervical, ECC:
- TISSUE INSUFFICIENT FOR DIAGNOSIS; NO ENDOCERVIX IDENTIFIED.
- MUCUS AND INFLAMMATORY CELLS ONLY.

Gross Description

A. Received in formalin labeled with the patient's name, medical record number and " cervix, endocervical " is an aggregate of clear mucoid material measuring 0.5 x 0.5 cm. Specimen may fail processing. Wrapped and entirely submitted in A1

Can someone explain what these results mean? Does it seem like they made yet another error in the lab (or did the doctor doing the colpo make an error during the procedure)? I feel like they are trying to pull a fast one on me. I've never in my life had to go in for 2 of the same procedures twice in less than 2 months. I also feel like they are not telling me that the colpo had an error in the lab/with doctor because the first pap that started all this that had a lab error resulted in the doc very apologetic and whatnot..so they know they screwed up.


Can someone explain colposcopy results

my uterus hurts!

I recently stopped using the NuvaRing after my last period (15 through 18 August). Since about Aug 22 my uterus has been feeling super bloated and sore. When I walk I have pain, when I work out I have pain, when I need to go to the bathroom (both 1 and 2) and also when I actually go to the bathroom, I have pain. It's not super bad, but bothersome enough to know it's not normal, if that makes sense, and it even feels hard when I press on it. If I were to have ovulated already it would have been yesterday or today. Has anyone else experienced this kind of pain after stopping their birth control? I don't think I am pregnant because the last time I had intercourse was Aug 20. Just wondering if it could be something to worry about or should I just wait it out like I was planning on doing. Thanks!!

Possible herinated disks?

Hello everyone,

I am a bit concerned with an issue I've been having with my back for the past year. I first started by having issues with lower back pain and weakness, I spoke to a doctor who passed me into pshiotherapy. I continued my excersise and the pain seemed to have disappeared for a few months. Recently the same back pain returned this time a bit worse, I also started realising some weird symptoms that I wanted to share with you all to see if any of this makes sense.

1) pins and needles are common especially when sitting down.

2) I generally feel weak again more common in the lower part of the body.

3) blurryness in my vision including eye pain and eyes feeling dry.

4) I also some times have trouble walking after sitting down, I also getting a feeling below my ankle at the back of the foot making it a bit difficult to raise my foot for me to walk correctly.

I went to a doctor who has since sent me for an Mri, were still waiting on the results for this.

Ive also had some stomach pain and diorrea and sometimes head aches.

The physiotherapist just reckons its "mechanical issues" and has sent me for a Mri to be on the safe side. I just want to be in the safe side just incase its some more than just "mechanical".

Any help will be much appreciated.

thanks

Just got done at the doctor..

Hello everyone,

I just got home a little bit ago from the doctor and my head is swimming. He mentioned ruling out ms and other conditions, and wants me to see a neurologist like yesterday to see what is going on. I am going to post below what I posted on a previous board earlier today. Thank you for reading.

Here goes:
---------------

Hello everyone,

I am new to these forums, and so pardon me if my post is a bit disorganized. I tried to include a bit of history to help paint a picture, although I'm not sure how well I've done. I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon and so just finished typing out all my symptoms. I have seen my doc twice this year already for an overall not feeling well (these are the "old" symptoms listed below), to which he referred me to an ENT. I have seen this ENT twice. After this second visit, he put me on methylprednisolone, an antibiotic, and scheduled me for a tonsillectomy. I have unilateral swelling, with a lesion on the swollen tonsil that has been hanging out for awhile. My throat didn't clear up, but I will tell you that the steroid pack made me feel like my old self. I felt as if I could actually function. The "new" symptoms have started over the past several weeks/months. I am normally a very energetic person, but now my bed seems to be my best friend. I figured maybe I should post my symptoms to see if anyone else has any insight or a similar story to share. TIA


Symptoms for Doc

New:
-----

-Left ear pain.
-Tingling in left side of scalp, with and without headache.
-I feel a tingling/vibration-like feeling inside my head. Similar to if you were to hold a blade of grass to an electric fence to test if it was on. It doesn't hurt necessarily but it's annoying.
-Left eyeball hurts. Feels like someone is pressing hard on it. Blinking makes it worse.
-Ears are ringing. Haven't been around anything loud or out of the ordinary.
-Restless legs. Legs feel as if they have zings going through them.
-Peripheral motion sickness. Any movement in my peripheral makes me feel like I'm on a merry-go-round.
-Constant motion sickness, even at rest. Cannot ride in a car anymore. I used to have periods of time every few months where I could ride as a passenger.
-Sometimes the spinning/dizziness/nausea hits me so hard, I have to drop down and put my head between my knees to lessen the feeling.
-Constant headaches. For the last couple of weeks I've woken up with a headache. The days that I haven't, shortly after waking I have one. These headaches remind me of a motion sickness headache. Ibuprofen, Tylenol, and Aleve do nothing. Occasionally dramamine can take the edge off.
-Muscle spasms in upper back/base of neck that cause pain and burning.
-Constant nausea. I have been living on zofran which takes the edge off.
-Hot flashes. I have bouts where I get really hot and start to sweat profusely. It is also coupled with a marked increase in the already constant nausea.
-Foggy brain. I have noticed an increase in the fogginess. I sometimes have a hard time getting my thoughts out, and sometimes getting words out.
-I have a hard time staying asleep. I usually wake up around 2 am and 4 am almost every night. I usually wake up with an awful headache at these times.
-Increasing difficulty remembering things. Even old memories are sometimes hard to recollect.
-Constant lower abdominal pain.
-Constant pain in my lower back.
-ENT put me on methylprednisolone and that was best I've felt in about three years. I actually felt like I could function.

Old:
----

-Left hand is numb more often than not. Driving makes my wrist area numb and it's hard to keep a grip.
-Nausea. I've been nauseous for the past couple of years, however now it is constant.
-Motion sickness. I've been having motion sickness for the last three years. Which is unusual for me because I used to ride roller-coasters. Previously I'd been able to ride in a car without getting sick but that was usually only a couple of weeks, every few months.
-Water diarrhea. I've been having these multiple times a day for a couple of years. If I'm having a break from water stools, I'm constipated.
-Headaches. I used to get them a couple of times a month, which increased to a couple of times a week, which has now become daily.
-Fatigue. I used to be tired often but I could power through it. Now I'm finding it really hard to get out of bed, and have felt that way for the past ten months or so. I've noticed however that I have slightly more energy late in the evening.
-Constant sore throat. I have had this for over a year.

If you made it this far, again thank you for reading.

It Never Ends

Hello-

I am at my wit's end and am just looking for support and advice. I am a 34 year old mother of two young girls and have been married for almost 10 years. About five years ago, I had my gallbladder removed due to stones and recurrent pain- it runs in my family (father, grandfather, etc). However, even before the removal, I have had more gastro issues than anyone else I know. I had hyperemesis with both pregnancies and lost 30-40lbs with each along with hydration stays at the hospital.
So here comes the TMI... I don't have issues often with diarrhea - though when I do, it's "greasy" or "oily: my main concern is living with nausea every damn day. I take Gravol everyday. I carry it in my purse, car, at home and at work. I can't put a finger on the cause like time of day, stress, diet, fatigue...it pops up randomly it seems. Sometimes it is low and tolerable, sometimes it makes me feel tired and I actually wonder if I have caught a flu. Again, this was also an issue even when I had a gallbladder so I'm sure it contributes, but I don't think it's the cause.
To top it off, I have emetophobia, which is a phobia of vomit or others vomiting. Again, I'm sure that the psychology has some to do with it because when someone looks sick or says "I don't feel well", I get panic, hot flushes and nausea myself. But the everyday nausea comes regardless of anxiety or not. I've tried several medications and therapies but it's still there so I don' think it's ALL in my head.
Like I say, I have a young family and spending my time laying on the couch or wanting to rest all the time is not working for us. Plus my oldest is picking up on my fear of sickness though I try to not to show it as best as I can.
Can anyone help? I am mentally and physically exhausted.
TLDR: I feel sick everyday and it's interfering in my daily life.

Getting care needed and health insurance

Hello,

I am brand new to these forums and very frustrated because as of April 30th I lost my Medicaid (due to my husband's income level). We are not rich and still support two adult children - they say I don't even qualify for help (subsidies) with the $700 a month premiums because I could go on my husband's insurance from work (don't know what the premiums are yet) that has a $5000 deductible. I have spent hours and hours researching Obamacare on the internet trying to find help.

I was in the hospital with no insurance 3 weeks ago - 3rd time I've had kidney stones, kidney infection and urinary tract infection (which have been recurring for me ever since I came down with IBS-C after a year long treatment for Hepatitis C from which I was (thankfully) cured. I was hoping that the new insurance would pay for my monthly Dextroamphetimene perscription which has been costing me close to $300 month without insurance - I am perscribed this for my chronic fatigue but the insurance company has an age limit on this drug (for ADHD) - I am really at my wit's end we cannot afford all of this - I just want to get healthy enough to get another job - I lost mine last year when I was in the hospital. Any help would be appreciated!:

Reflux and colonoscopy prep

I have lpr and have an endoscope and colonoscopy scheduled this Friday. I am concerned the prep for the colonoscopy will trigger the reflux. I have worked hard to get it almost under control and would not want to go back to when that was full blown. Does anyone have experience with the prep and reflux trigger. I will be using the prep (Preproik).

Help in Lab Results

TSH .35 (.27-4.2)
T4 free .8 (.9-1.7)
Prolactin 65.7 (4.8-23.3)

I have had high prolactin levels for years along with low tsh. The endo's I have seen insist I have hyperthyroidism and ignore the high prolactin level. My current gynecologist finally says that you can't go off of tsh if you have a pituitary problem (I have had an mri which shows no tumor 8 years ago).

I have major hypo symptoms with being extremely cold when everyone else is warm and low energy and extremely tired all the time, also infertility in my 20's and 30's (now 51 years old).

Any recommendations would be appreciated as I have gone through many doctors for the past 25 years going round and round on this subject.

Inhaler not working for 8yo

Hi all, looking for suggestions. My 8yo has asthma that flares up when he gets sick. Usually happens in winter, but we've had a flare up about a week ago . Been giving him his prevention meds and his proventil. Poor kid has pretty much no break from coughing in about a week. He's able to talk and stay active but has cough almost all day. Dr said inhaler just as good as nebulizer, though when we goto DR they give him a breathing treatment via nebulizer and he usually experiences instant relief. There anything I can do? Taking him to doc everytime it gets bad is hard cause he is missing school.

Elevated B12

Has anyone had an elevated B12 test result? Normal is 180–914 and mine was 1405. My GFR was 53. Liver functions were all a little elevated. WBC was slightly low at 4.2. My doctor didn't think any of these were cause for concern. I'm hypothyroid and he was only concerned about my low TSH at .28 so has precscirbed a lesser dose of levothyroxine. Should I be concerned since I've never had any labs like this before? My cholesterol is great, blood pressure is great and everything else tested is normal.

Is this normal for a wisdom tooth removal?

I just had an upper wisdom tooth removed last week. The dentist didn't use stitches, just gave me gauze after pulling it and sent me home. The 3rd day I started having pain in my jaw, my ear and in my sinuses. I also started showing signs of a sinus infection.
I looked at the area with a dental mirror and I see a huge hole where the tooth was and it's black. I assume this is a blood clot although if I look close enough it looks like I can see some bone through it so the clot doesn't seem to be big.
I went back to the dentist to look at it and I was told it looks fine just take more pain meds. I asked if I had dry socket and was just told "it might be." That was it. I don't think it's dry socket because I'm not dying in pain, but it does hurt a lot.
It's going on a week and I'm still in pain and the hole hasn't closed in at all.
I'm new to this and have never had a tooth pulled and am due to have the other side done next week. I opted to wait so I could chew on one side instead of having both out at the same time. I am allergic to a lot of foods so a soft liquid diet isn't exactly easy for me. Problem is, I still have a giant hole and am worried I'll get food stuck in it if I have the other tooth removed.
Should I be seeing any pain going away by now?
Should I hold off on having the other removed until the one I had out is healed?
Should the dentist have stitched the gum where the tooth was that was removed? It wasn't impacted just decayed.
I wish I could post a pic here.
