Question

Do people with cerebral vascular accident have a lot of pain?

Answer 1

Hmmmm...: The propensity to have a stroke can be genetic. The specific arterial occlusion, not necessarily. But, high colesterol, high blood pressure and family history of stroke put you in a higher risk catagory. If you smoke you increase your risk exponentially. Lifestyle modification can be key. If on the otherhand you are talking about aneurysms--that could very well be linked.

Answer 2

Yes: Usually doctors have a very good reason for getting a CT of the brain in a pregnant woman like checking for bleeding or tumors in the brain. For very good reasons, you can and probably need to get a CT of the brain. The radiation exposure will be low.

Answer 3

Maybe: Best to avoid radiation during pregnancy, so preferrable to do MRI instead, which involves magnetic pulses. If past the first 6 weeks, perhaps risk to baby is less, but would avoid radiation anyway.

Answer 4

Any age: Malaria can develop at almost any age, following bite by an infected mosquito.

Answer 5

Any age: As far as i know, a human of any age can be attacked by a vicious mosquito and get infected. Cerebral involvement is most common with falciparum variety.

Answer 6

Hormonal: The kidneys are a pivotal component of blood pressure control with multiple mechanisms that can elevate the blood pressure. Disease of the kidneys themselves can induce release of hormones that raise the blood pressure. The arteries that feed the kidneys can have partial blockages that cause the kidneys to secrete hormones to raise the bp. Glands that are adjacent can also release BP hormones.

Answer 7

Other way: It is hypertension that causes these problems and of course if it is not controlled well it could may these disease worse.

Answer 8

Renal artery stenosi: Renal artery stenosi can cause htn.

Answer 9

Renin-Aldosterone: Entire medical books have been written on this mechanism of action. Basically when the kidney has a blockage in the arteries leading to it it perceives a low blood pressure. Since the kidney has the ability to release a chemical signal that tells the body to increase blood pressure it does just that. The problem is is that blood pressure is increased throughout the entire body, not just the kidney, and can have adverse effects.

Answer 10

Generally Yes: But it would be most accurate to say that vascular complications are especially more likely to occur if there is uncontrolled type 1 diabetes. Problems with the vascular system in the eye, the kidney, the heart, and the toes are all much more common in the diabetic, but especially in the diabetic who does not control their diabetes. Ideal control would be a hemoglobina1c of less than 7.

Answer 11

Yes : Careful management of glucose and non smoking can help reuven these.

Answer 12

Unfortunately yes: Long term type 1 diabetics develop micro vascular disease causing kidney , eye and other end organ damage as well as neuropathy. Hopefully we will find a cure soon. Better control may equal less severe vascular issues over the long term.

Answer 13

Discuss with Doc: There are some minor surgical risks but most risks are long term. There is a chance for pump failure and also issues with the catheter becoming clogged or having excess tissue growing at the tip. Pumps are best for short term use in terminal cancer. These are always a last resort and are for those patients who require high dose narcotics and are having too many side effects to tolerate oral med.

Answer 14

Intrathecal : Pain pumps are one tool used to treatment chronic severe pain. The pro would be adequate treatment when other less invasive pop roaches were inadequate. This is a complicated decision that should be made with a pain specialist.
