Question 2

hi doctors, was just wondering what is bilateral firmostostmy?

Accepted Answer

Haven't got a clue: what a "Firmostostmy" is. Is it a Foraminotomy?  If yes, that is a surgery on the spine. Here is a good article on the matter:  http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/007390.htm

Question 3

hi doctors, was just wondering what is acute inferoposterolateralmi?

Accepted Answer

Heart Attack: A posterior lateral MI is a heart attack.  It's just a fancy way of telling you the exact part of the heart that is being affected.  It is posterior and lateral damage that is caused by blockages in the coronary blood vessels on the right side of the heart.

Question 4

hi doc am only 5ft what weight shud i be x?

Accepted Answer

Check a BMI chart: Average weights are guidelines only. You can easily find calculators to enter your height and weight to see what your bmi is. But, if you feel fine, that's also important. Age is often taken as a factor too.

Question 5

hi doc. how to take a norethistherone... thanks...

Accepted Answer

Rather Simple: This is a Progestrin only birth control pill. you may start it any day you like. Once you begin, take it once daily. Pick a time of day that is easiest for you to remember to consistently take it each and every day at the same time. Be sure to follow along with your doctor. I wish you well.

Question 7

hi doctors, was just wondering what is blepharoconjunctivitis?

Accepted Answer

Inflammation and/ or: Infection of the lids( blepharo) and conjunctiva( the white part of the eye).

Question 8

hi doctors, was just wondering what is apparent brachycephaly?

Accepted Answer

Deformity: Brachycephaly refers to a flattening of the skull. This can be positional in nature, meaning it is due to a baby being placed in one position often enough to lead to pressure on part of the head/skull, or it can be due to the bones of the skull fusing too soon (a condition called craniosynostosis).

Question 9

hi doctors, was just wondering what is congenital hypothroldism?

Accepted Answer

Congenital: hypothyroidism is a condition in the newborn of low or nonfunctioning thyroid.  It can occur because of abnormal thyroid gland anatomy, inborn errors of metabolism or nutritional deficiency of hormone precursors.  Rarely, maternal antibodies cross the placenta and cause the disruption.  This is one of the disorders routinely checked for in newborn metabolic screens.

Question 10

hi doctors, was just wondering what is alobas holoprosencephaly?

Accepted Answer

Lobar Holopreosenceh: I believe you are referring to Lobar Holopreosencehaly in which the brain is not formed well leading to severe mental retardation. This is a rare condition from failure of the brain to completely divide into two separate halves. Many parts of the entire brain may be fused and not allow normal function. This may be as a result of some chromosomal disorders. A more complete descriptionfromgeneticist
