Answer 1

Improved LV Function: The long term benefit of these medications in the treatment of CHF or Cardiomyopathy are well established highly beneficial and according to guidelines. It is all good. Prolong and improve life expectancy.

Answer 2

Low dose fiber: A low dose of a fiber supplement may help "bind" the stool and make it firmer.

Answer 3

See your doctor: There are several reasons you may have diarrhea after a colon resection. These can generally be treated or controlled with medications.

Answer 4

Eyelid fasciculation: Sounds like may be benign eyelid fasciculations or twitches. However this is a diagnosis of exclusion if there are no underlying other causes (also look for entire face spasms). If it is very tiny eyelid twitches and eventually resolves on its own, it's likely not worrisome. See if induced by stress, lack of sleep, caffeine, etc.

Answer 5

Benign tic: I get that, too. Irritation of one of the small muscle fibers in the eyelid. Some say coffee makes it worse. Not to worry.

Answer 6

Cause is unknown: Trembling of an eyelid, which happens in normal people, is called myokymia (an involuntary, spontaneous, quivering of a few muscle cell bundles within a muscle). Myokymia starts and stops spontaneously. In the eyelids, it can last a few minutes to a few days. One should see an ophthalmologist (md eye doctor) if such symptoms persist, keep recurring, or are combined with any other symptoms.

Answer 7

Myokymia: You are describing myokymia - an involuntary twitching of the skin around the eyelids. It's believed to be related to lack of sleep, stress, and caffeine use. Change these risk factors and it should abate.

Answer 8

Increased pressure: The symptoms you're describing could be related to increased pressure inside your skull. This could be due to many things including a mass, high blood pressure or a vascular malformation. It is definitely something you need to discuss with the doc treating your headaches right away.

Answer 9

Assessment needed.: Several issues must be reviewed: 1, sleep problems? Even you might not realize that, 2. Any trigger points or painful points in neck as they give referral pain in head, 3. Is there any medication withdrawal or sudden stop? 4. Is scalp tender on top of head? See your doctor for assessment.

Answer 10

Pain: You need to see a urologist, recurrent UTI with pain can be secondary to bladder stone, prostate infection, sometimes bladder tumor might present as uti. Ulatrasound of kidneys and bladder might be a helpful quick screening test.

Answer 11

Rule out UTI: U may not have eliminated the original uti. Best to get a urinalysis if you have pain after voiding. Bacteria causing your UTI may have been reistant to the antibiotic. Symptoms could be due to an std, if u r sexually active. Best to see your dr. If symptoms continue. Good luck.

Answer 12

Legs or back?: Shin pain with walking, that gets better with rest can come from the shins themselves (for example shin splints) or from the lower back (lunar stenosis). Other less common causes (including blood flow and pressure in the muscles) are also possible. Your primary care doc can point you in the right direction.
