Question 1

if i have bad diarrhea while taking crystal meth. what should i do to relieve it?

Accepted Answer

Get off meth: Diarrhea is the least of your issues. Taking meth will ruin your health in many ways.

Question 2

my husband uses meth & has gout. the meth binges are usually followed by severe gout attacks. can meth cause gout? or is meth use abating the gout?

Accepted Answer

You have the answer: If he suffers from severe gout attacks after meth binges, that's all the proof you need. Certainly the meth has worsened and not lessened the gout.  There may be other theoretical explanations but nothing can void the fact that meth binges induced severe gout attacks in your husband

Question 3

why does my hands stay cold after binging on meth for a week-week and  half?

Accepted Answer

This is most: likely a persistent vascular effect from the Meth. Get help, counseling and rehab before more serious systemic vascular effects occur and you have a stroke or heart attack. Good luck.

Question 4

i went to a bachelor party this weekend and had a night of binge drinking.  i vomited several times the next day.  i am now having yellow diarrhea.

Accepted Answer

Sounds normal: Heavy alcohol will do these things. Drink fluids to stay hydrated, advance to normal diet as you can tolerate it. Probably you'll be fine by tomorrow.

Question 5

i'm having night sweats and diarrhea after binge drinking. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Typical not 'normal': Night sweats can be alcohol withdrawal after heavy sustained use.  They can also be a sign of more serious illness (or a medication reaction), especially if they occur night after night.  Diarrhea also can occur after heavy drinking.  None of this is normal, as it is not normal to binge drink.  But both symptoms are pretty typical.  Please consider stopping, or at least cutting back.

Question 6

hi i  went on a 5 day meth binge, drank almost no water and peed only a few times. now after i pee i get a small burning sensation at the tip of penis?

Accepted Answer

You asked for advice: Hey bro. I don't know what's going on with your penis. You may have gotten some lint from your underpants up it. Or you may have contracted gonorrhea or chlamydia. Or it may be nothing. But listen, man. Do this stuff again, and you can end up dead. Meth-heads that I've autopsied rip the flesh off their bodies before they die. Stand up, give thanks for being alive today, and resolve 2 stop meth.

Question 7

do i have tapeworms? since the beginning of december, i have been experiencing extreme abdominal discomfort, bouts of nausea, vomiting, gas, extreme constipation (cuts my rectum, at times didn't have bowel movement for 2 weeks) and then diarrhea, binge e

Accepted Answer

Hello. : Hello. Although tapeworms are seen more often in developing countries, it does occur in the us but isnâ€™t common. Tape worms are segmented worms that can reach 15 to 30 feet long and live in the intestine. Tape worms can be transmitted by eating raw beef, pork and fish as well as drinking water or eating food that is contaminated with feces. 
       Many people who have tapeworms have no symptoms other than seeing worms or worm segments when they have a bowel movement.  Possible symptoms/ signs can include: weight loss, loss of appetite or the opposite (hunger), nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and lethargy. It can lead to loss of important vitamins and minerals. Serious complications can occur however.
  The next time you pass a worm or segment of a worm, obtain a stool specimen to include it (donâ€™t handle it directly with your hands). The type of worm can be identified in a laboratory. If you doctor is not knowledgeable about worms, she could ask you to see an infectious disease specialist.

Question 8

can a cold cause diarrhea?

Accepted Answer

Not normally.: The most common symptoms of a cold are sneezing, running nose, feeling tired, congestion and scratchy throat.  Additional symptoms can be coughing, headaches, mucus dripping down the back of the throat, loss of appetite and fever (in children).

Question 9

could being a caretaker for another person cause constant diarrhea?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Irritable bowel syndrome can be worsened by stress. If the person you were caring for had an infectious diarrhea at some point, you could have caught it from them. If they are older and/or have been hospitalized a clostridium difficile infection would be a definite risk.
