Question 1

why should i get a chronicity scan?

Accepted Answer

If carrying twins: Twins may or may not be at risk of the blood vessels from which they get nutrition and oxygen from the mother being shared.  This sort of scan is intended to help determine that.  If there is such sharing then there is risk of a "twin-twin transfusion" that can cause severe problems, usually for the baby that receives too much blood.

Question 2

is it likely that the chronicity of overlap myeloproliferative-myelodysplastic disorder would by itself cause this rising crp (30.5 mg/l 37.8; 54.3 ; 66.0; 110.0; 126.9; 148.5; 89.6; & 147.3)? it will be investigated bit i still desire an opinion now

Accepted Answer

Rising crp: Such a rise in crp levels point to an inflammatory process, but I would feel that the myeloproliferative bone marrow disorder or the myelodysplasia would show very active myeloid activity with marked rising white blood cell count and progressive anemia to raise crp to those levels. I would be concerned about an underlying infectious process. However, your hematologist is best qualified to answer.

Question 3

i want to the er last night with back pain they did a x-ray and sent me home b4 the x-rays came back. i got the results on my portal its say superior endplate compression deformities at t12 and l1, uncertain chronicity. what dose this mean?

Accepted Answer

Question 4

treated w/laser glaucoma open angle, unsuccessful. now on xalatan generic and timoptic (timolol). is there any new treatment? 83 y.o. male w/ open angle glaucoma; 40 years chronicity. reccomendation?

Accepted Answer

The : The most recent peer-reviewed fda approved treatment for glaucoma is the minimally invasive surgery canaloplasty.  Essentially, this surgery is like angioplasty for the eye as it uses a catheter to dilate the natural drainage system.  Three year results have recently been published and are objectively impressive when compare to other glaucoma treatments.

More information can be found about canaloplasty through the iscience website www.Canaloplasty.Com or by googling "new glaucoma treatments".

Question 5

is it possible to have a chronic malabsorption problem that goes undetected, because the malabsorption is mild?

Accepted Answer

Sure: In fact many malabsorption problems are not recognized until the storage has been exhausted ( vit B12 deficiency etc).   Thus getting some routine blood work done periodically even in the absence of disease is not a bad idea.

Question 6

blepharitis        i was diagnosed this past summer with a mild form of this chronic disorder. will this disorder get worse with time?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily: Frequent warm compresses are the best therapy. You could also try nightly lid scrubs (baby shampoo to clean your eyelashes). In more severe cases, oral antibiotics can be helpful.

Question 7

what is mild chronic cholecystitis?

Accepted Answer

See below: Mild means that. Chronic means present a long time. Cholecystitis means inflammation of the gallbladder. Put together would indicate long standing irritation from gallstones. If there are no gallstones then could be a minimal finding of slight gallbladder irritation from pathology. It is benign.

Question 8

can mild chronic gastritis go away?

Accepted Answer

: Most people recover from gastritis. If no resolution occurs consult with your doctor about treatment and your diet.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Periadnexal inflamma: It means some signs of inflammation may be swelling or increased blood flow in the area of ovary and adjacent area.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

: There is inflammation in your stomach in patches/ focal. Many times caused by drugs, over the counter or prescribed, with other causes possible as well. Your gastroenterologist who performed the endoscopy with biopsies remains your best resource going forward.
