Question 1

my period is late by 18 days. ive never had a late period. took over 10 hpt tests all neg, as well an ultrasound & blood test. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Possible reasons...: In a woman with regular periods, some causes of a late period include: excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (like birth control pills), hormonal imbalances, etc…  seeing a doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent, recurring, or worrisome. Pregnancy tests are very accurate by 3 weeks after sex.

Question 2

faint positive hpt few months ago, did a blood test it was 0.100 ultrasound was also negative. but i squeezed my breast today saw a white liquid preg?

Accepted Answer

No: Conception, as defined by the generation of a fertilized ovum, occurs within day or so of the sex. However, it takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG to produce a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex. 
Get HPV vaccine

Question 3

last period was 8-28 negative test, slightly big stomach and doctors won't do a blood test or ultra sound what do i do ?

Accepted Answer

Urine test: If your urine pregnancy test is negative, there really is no need for further testing to evaluate for pregnancy.

Question 4

i am experiencing dizziness and nausea in regards to certain foods for the past month and a half , i did about 5 pregnancy test an ultra sound and blood test which was all negative.my last period was 21/07. what should my next step be?

Accepted Answer

See below: Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.

Question 5

had abnormal lft on blood test,gp said i have nafld and booked m for ultra sound in 5 week,told me to lose weight,is this reversable?ova weight 5year

Accepted Answer

Reversible: If there is no fibrosis in the liver, the lesions are reversible. It is imperative that you reduce weight, but it is easier said than done. Do not drink alcohol at all. Ask you doctor about proper nutrition.

Question 6

lower abdomen pain, off and on (worse at night) blood test fine, ultra sound fine, what's the next step?

Accepted Answer

CT scan: If there is nothing noted on physical exam then would possibly go for CT scan of abdomen and pelvis

Question 7

after my 2nd blood test came back that my liver enzymes came back elevated now my doctor wants a ultra sound done do i have to be worried?

Accepted Answer

Not enough info: You give no specifics as to why the tests were ordered, your medical conditions or your meds. You should direct your question to the doctor who ordered the tests.

Question 8

low  enzymes on liver from blood test what does that mean?doctor wants to do ultra sound and tissue sample on liver.just wodering what it could be?

Accepted Answer

Need more info : "low enzymes" on liver doesn't mean anything. Please provide more detail in your question. The "liver panel" typically includes values reflecting liver function and damage. 7 values total. I would need the values for a better answer. An ultrasound may show "fatty liver" or cirrhosis or other structural abnormalities.

Question 9

i had a blood test. my ca 19.9 is 42.7 ng/ml . do i need to ultra sound scan for my whole abdomen ?

Accepted Answer

Perhaps...but: The level sounds high.  Depending on your age this could be related to GI tumor or blockage of your bile duct system from tumor or benign conditions.  Ultrasound of your right upper abdomen to look at the size of your bile duct might be useful but a ca19-9 is never ordered based on whimsy,  ask your doctor why he drew the lab and then you'll have a better conversation about what tests to do next.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

: I assume you've been evaluated &amp; treated by a urologist. I recommend obtaining a second opinion by a urologist with a special interest in OAB at a department of urology at a university hospital near you. ty
