Platelets increase
My mun was diagnosed with thrombocytosis around 3 yrs ago. She has been on Hydresan for these years but during the past two blood tests she had to take her platelets went up to 600 in the first one and the second one was 700..We will contact her doctor but is this something to worry about? Ever since

How to taper off 15mg Lansoprazole
Hi I have been on lansoprazole for about 2.5 months now and about to try come off them. I am on 15mg. I've started by taking one and then missing one the next day then taking another but I've already got acid reflux and this is only the second one I've missed. Do I need to do it slower? The docs said

Second opinion required
Had a lot of dental work done last year and kind of still going through recovery. I had two extracts, three temp bridges one perm bridge that was fitted in July, four composite fillings, cap then ended up with a root filling through the cap. My bridge is so uncomfortable still unable to eat properly

Struggling with abdominal cramps and bloating in the evenings and mornings
I'm recently diagnosed in September. I'm taking 200mg twice daily of mebeverine which helps with going to the toilet daily but I'm finding that I'm getting bad abdominal cramping and bloating in the evenings and the morning which then settles during the day, only to flare up again later on. Does anyone

Long term side effects of using steroids
https://www.verywellhealth.com/steroid-side-effects-83089 A huge long description of all the problems with steroids. It was not till I saw specialists like Endocrinologist AND Rheumatologist that I was made more aware of the concerns. My PCP loves steroids., like just take more insulin, how about 50%

Chemo question
Hello everyone, I was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer a couple days before last Christmas so I am early in my journey and feeling very scared and discouraged. Since my tumor is too large, I can’t have surgery yet. I had my first taxol/carboplatin treatment last week. I had an allergic reaction

Gastroscopy aftermath!
I had a gastroscopy yesterday evening. He went down into my stomach and small intestine. I've had a few of these in the past - the last one 20 years ago. I cannot remember feeling quite so bruised and sore as I did last night and still do. He took a biopsy and so I know my stomach will be sore and will

No Epi
Did your Dentist know you have AFib and are taking Eliquis? Dentists use Lidocaine as it is a vasoconstrictor, however in your case Local with No Epi would have been best. Also sometimes before an Extraction you come off Eliquis 1-2 days before but your Dentist would have consulted with your EP. For

Update on painful buttocks and thighs
My rheumatologist requested a CRP test for me yesterday, and it was below 3, low normal range. As I think back, I may have over done it four days in a row, and this may just be very sore muscles. My mother would have called it being “lame.” I have been taking it very easy the last couple days and

Is it the Medication or am I Losing it?
Do you do daft things? This morning I picked up my toothbrush and instead of putting toothpaste on it picked up a tube of face wash cream and spread that on my toothbrush, as soon as the brush went in my mouth I knew what I'd done. Last week I took a carton of orange juice out of the fridge and poured
