Accepted Answer

Ascites: Fluid buildup in the abdomen, known as ascites, is often from liver disease, but can have many other causes. Since some of those illnesses can be serious, it is important to follow through with the work up to determine the cause. Removing some fluid is often helpful in making a diagnosis and may allow him to be more comfortable and breathe easier. Don't delay his medical care! Good luck.

Question 2

i want to know what my test results mean and if there is something i can take for low blood? i recently visited my health care provider and had labs done.

Accepted Answer

Test Results: You'll need to discuss those with your ordering physician, this forum is for answering general questions, not for interpreting your results.

Question 3

is there something i can take to pass a 12 panel blood and urine drug test.  the only thing i have used is meth.

Accepted Answer

Stop using meth: Nothing will work; online stuff's for suckers. The best thing that can happen to you is to acknowledge your meth use and get help. This stuff is treacherous and if you continue to treat this business lightly, you are likely to lose self-control and enter the downward spiral to death. I've autopsied folks like this and yes, they DO claw the flesh off their bodies as they are dying. Save your life.

Question 4

cirrhosis pt, always cold, told iron not good for me is there anything else i can use to build up my blood that wont hurt my liver?

Accepted Answer

Get the facts: Are you anemic or not? If you are, what is the cause? If you have chronic blood loss from upper GI bleeding, it is probably appropriate to supplement with iron unless your cirrhosis is due to hemochromatosis -- you'd know if it were and your doctor is competent. If you have anemia from some other cause, the cause needs to be addressed. Be proactive and demand to know what's really happening.

Question 5

Question 6

Accepted Answer

: It is not feasible to provide an opinion without additional history, physical examination may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor to see if you may be depressed. Depression is treatable. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Drink more water. Wish you good health!

Question 7

how long does it take the body to regenerate blood?

Accepted Answer

3 months: 90 days on average for the life cycle for red blood cell.  Your body is constantly putting out new ones and taking out old ones.  Fascinating really.

Question 9

Accepted Answer
