Question

Can a person using Combivent (albuterol and ipratropium) have arthritis-like side effects?

Answer 1

Yes: It is very important to keep your asthma well-controlled during pregnancy. You should take your prescribed inhalers as recommended.

Answer 2

Combivent (albuterol and ipratropium): Pregnancy class c so the benefits have to outweigh the risks. Speaking with your ob/gyn and lung specialist would be the best way to determine if this is the safest medication for you.

Answer 3

Low!: Less than 95 fasting, and less than 120 2 hours after meals. (some are a little more liberal with fastings, allowing less than 105). Gestational diabetic are less likely to have problems with fasting sugars as they are with postprandial (after meals) sugars.

Answer 4

See below: Fastings under 90, one hours under 140.(the lower the better..Shoot for 130).

Answer 5

Progesterone: The hormone Progesterone starts to go up pretty early in the pregnancy. It slows done the urine system and makes a woman more predisposed to urinary tract infections.

Answer 6

2 reasons: 1) pregnancy is associated with greatly increased levels of circulating estrogen, which in turn causes ureters and bladder to enlarge temporally + reduces force of smooth muscle contraction and impaired ureteral and bladder emptying. 2) enlaging uterus pushes bladder forward causing possible obstruction at bladder neck and impaired emptying. Retention of urine predisposes subjects to develop utis.

Answer 7

Both: Toxemia of pregnancy may be revealed by protein in the urine along with other signs and symptoms such as elevated blood pressure, significant edema, blurred vision, abdominal pain. Blood work assists in the diagnosis and prognosis.

Answer 8

Both: Both test need to be done and they need to be interpreted in the context of clinical presentation.

Answer 9

Several things: Depending on where you are in your cycle, pain in your abdomen could be many things. Worrisome issues are ovarian cysts or ectopic pregnancy. Depending on your symptoms (nausea, vomiting, bleeding, diarrhea, contipation), it could be minor or serious. I would consult your doctor immediately.

Answer 10

Yes: Have you tested the person that you had unprotected sex with? Usually recommendation is testing every 6 months, but you can turn positive at any time. Get to your obgyn and get checked. Good luck.

Answer 11

No: If that was your most recent exposure, then you're negative, and a repeat test will still be negative.
