Question 1

ive been taking clinaycin and i've  been done for 2 days now and it gave  me dirreha. how long till it goes away?

Accepted Answer

Clindamycin diarrhea: Clindamycin often causes diarrhea, usually not serious. It probably will clear up on its own. However, sometimes clindamycin triggers a serious version caused by a bacteria called Clostridium difficile, which requires its own antibiotic treatment. if diarrhea is severe, bloody, or if you have abdominal cramps, contact your doctor right away. Also do so if any diarrhea continues a few more days.

Question 2

it gave me options as to what it could be but im not sure how an xray or ctscan will diagnose me?

Accepted Answer

Imaging studies. : An X-ray or CT scan of your foot and ankle (maybe even an MRI) can let us know if there’s any anatomical/structural derangement causing your symptoms. This, along with some blood testing for inflammatory markers, can help us to elucidate some diagnostic possibilities as to your symptoms.

Question 3

i used to take normix for my collagenous colitis but it gave me some problems. can i take something similar? thanks!

Accepted Answer

Normix?: Not sure what "normix" is.  Budesonide (entocort) is a weak corticosteroid that is mostly contained in the gut (poorly absorbed) that is highly effective at controlling diarrhea from collagenous colitis.

Question 4

i drank some hot tea while sick and it gave me a fever, what to do?

Accepted Answer

If you drank hot tea: And took an oral temperature shortly thereafter - this could cause an increased temperature reading.

Question 5

what is : ac anti nuclear test? and it gave me this result : fluorescence positive a 1/320 (finement granulaire)  what does that mean ?

Accepted Answer

Autoantibody: This is an autoantibody and you need to say why it was ordered? By itself it may not mean much but in the context of clinical symptoms it can indicate autoimmune disease such as lupus. The pattern (finement) differs between autoimmune diseases.

Question 6

i tried propranalol 2 separate times, for migraines, both times within a day or 2, it gave me terrible constrictive feeling headaches.weird reaction?

Accepted Answer

Migraine is complex: neurological disorder. Once a diagnosis of migraine has been made, effective management of migraine involves three specific strategies: 1) patient education, 2) nonpharmacological management, and 3) pharmacological (medical) management. See an Orofacial Pain or headache specialist for evaluation and professional management.

Question 7

i have a very strong psychological desire to be substantially overweight, and i've indulged this periodically, and then lost the weight, despite the immense satisfaction it gave me, only to want to do it again. i'm not sure how best to manage this?

Accepted Answer

See professional: Your problem is more complex than can be treated on the web. Fighting the desire to be overweight suggests deep problems that can best be treated by a psychologist or medical social; worker. Since you can control your appetite to either gain or,lose,weight, determine your ideal weight and strive to maintain that, while enjoying healthy foods eaten at regular mealtimes 3-4 x daily. Good luck!

Question 8

im allergic to compazine, was recently prescribed reglan (metoclopramide) and it gave me the same side affects. was the dr right in giving me relan?

Accepted Answer

Probable: You have an idiosyncratic response to these two drugs. The neuromuscular responses may be quite similar but these two drugs do not share similar allergenic or chemical structure.    I can't tell you whether it is appropriate for the doctor to prescribe Reglan (metoclopramide) for you not knowing much about your history or previous response to alternate therapy.

Question 9

i did a pregnancy test yesterday and it have me 2 linea but one really fainted and today i did one and it gave me negative should i wait to do another?

Accepted Answer

Wait a week: It may be prudent to wait a several days for a retest as the accuracy of a urine pregnancy test will increase the further out from the last menstrual period.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

: A simple way to find out if you may have diabetes is to ask your primary care provider about a "glucose tolerance test" , which is performed by blood samples after a glucose load in your doctor's office.
