Question 1

radiologist said lytic lesions would be seen better on mri on report. different radiologist read mri no contrast and didnt see anything. said need mri contrast? thoughts? wouldnt they see something if really there? im scared?

Accepted Answer

: What we see is subjective sometimes, especially when it is vague or early. It is important, rather than being anxious, to be optimistic and let your physician weigh in; who has more information than you can provide on this forum.

Question 2

is it safe to restart lexapro after three months off? will the startup side effects be as hard? i had to taper down (financial, not medical reasons) and stop but am restarting again this week. under doctors supervision of course?

Accepted Answer

Lexapro: It’s not a problem to restart this. A doctor is supervising this so you should have no issues but you must titration up again do not start at the dose you were on before.

Question 3

i have excessive mucus i feel like i always need to clean my airways by coughing or anything lately i am feeling like the mucus is so much in my stomach i feel it bad i cant sleep at night it makes me feel so scared?

Accepted Answer

Excess mucus: Excessive mucus and feeling like you always need to cough or clean your airways is usually a sign of mucus production in your sinuses that keeps draining down and gives you the symptoms you are experiencing. Typically it is caused by allergies, using antihistamines or otc nose sprays can help. Also can do a humidifier at night. Please get it examined if it persists.

Question 4

i had anal sex and 15 ish minutes later i had to run to the toilet because yellow watery liquid was coming out of me. there was a lot of it. ive never had this happen before and it was maybe two minutes of intercourse?

Accepted Answer

: I would assume that the intercourse with attendant irritation of rectal mucus membrane caused a discharge of mucus mixed with some watery stool. If there's no pain,blood or continued discharge of large amount of rectal mucus, I think you can sit tight at this time. See your physician for examination as needed.

on n off (when on alinia or flagyl) bloody diarrhea for 3 mons. started when i was taking augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) for tooth infection. tested for c.diff and other things. all negative. what next? lost 20 pou.scared

Accepted Answer

See: See Dentist to assure Dental infection completely cured.  Antibiotic will only temporarily prevent spread of infection.  Infected tooth material has to be removed.  See Internist/gastroenterologist for GI problems.  Please call for appointments now.
