<s>[INST] Anemic. Done blood test. Taking iron supplements, ferrous sulphate. Sufficient? [/INST] Thanks for submitting your question . You are surely suffering from iron deficiency anemia. Your ferritin level is low which suggest iron deficiency anemia. I think oral iron therapy in the form of ferrous sulphate is sufficient, which contains 60 mg of elemental iron. What is your hemoglobin level?. 60 mg of elemental iron if taken for 4to 6 weeks rises hemoglobin by only 1 %. So it takes time for ferritin level to rise. If you want quick results then iron injections are available but in your case it is not required. Beside you should also go for iron profile to know the cause of anemia. But from your current history it is evident that ferritin level is not rising ,so one should find the cause for blood loss from the body. Next step is to undergo upper and lower GI scopy to rule out anemia due to blood loss. Have patience oral therapy requires time for ferritin level to rise . Thank you ,best wishses </s> |

<s>[INST] Q. Why am I having headaches with dizziness and tinnitus? [/INST] Hello. I passed carefully through your question and would explain that two MRI are more than enough to exclude any possible brain tumor (attchment removed to protect patient identity). The pineal cyst may be an incidental finding, as it does not seem to be related to the symptoms that you describe. It is strange that it results in the second MRI and not in the first one. Maybe the radiologist did not see it in the first one. I recommend comparing with your radiologist these two MRI in order to compare the presence of this cyst (if it is a new finding, or just was not described in the first MRI). In my opinion, the type of headache that you refer, coupled with dizziness and tinnitus are typical of tension type headache, which is benign type of headache, caused by a wrong posture and psychological stress. So, there is no reason to panic. I recommend you to perform regular physical exercise, trying to avoid staying before your smart phone for a prolonged time and trying to correct your posture. Avoiding caffeine intake will help too. </s> |

<s>[INST] Q. Am I having erectile dysfunction because of increased LH? [/INST] Hi. ED can have many causes. One of them is low testosterone. Whenever the testosterone levels are low, our pituitary gland tries to stimulate testosterone production by producing more LH. I saw your test reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Testosterone levels are just below normal and LH levels are just above normal reference ranges. This might be due to diurnal variation. Normally testosterone levels peak during day time around 10 AM. This is called circadian rhythm. It is important to consider this while evaluating borderline variations. Low testerone can lead to reduced sperm counts. Since you are also planning for a child, do get a semen analysis done after 3 days of sexual abstinence. Repeat testosterone and LH levels at morning between 9-11 AM before deciding on treatment.

<s>[INST] Q. Will you suggest some good medicine to get quick relief from vaginal infection? [/INST] Hi. Your wife seems to be suffering from vaginal candidiasis or in simple terms fungal infection which presents as vaginal itching and thick white curdy discharge from vagina. She has already been prescribed Fluconazole 150 mg and local application of Clotrimazole cream for external application thrice a day.

Normally, it takes about three months for your ovaries to gain normal function after taking birth control for several years. Unless you skipped 3 to 4 menses at a time I would not worry too much. </s> |

<s>[INST] Should i do a pregnancy test if i have missed my period? [/INST] Hi, I have read your query and feel your concern is valid.The egg release takes place 14 days prior to next expected menses. Your next menses were expected on 22 July. So the egg release was expected around 8th July. The egg has got a life of 24 hours while sperms are active for 3 days. Hence a week around day of egg release is considered as fertile period. Your intercourse does fall in this period. So, there is a possibility of pregnancy.I would not consider headache for pregnancy possibility.The urine pregnancy test and ultrasonography give reliable results 8-10 days after missed period. So please wait for that period and if you do not get menses by that time, get either or both of these tests done. Beta hCG tests are more specific and sensitive, hence they give reliable results even after 2-3 days of missed period.I hope you are guided properly. </s> |

<s>[INST] Suggest treatment for high blood pressure and stess [/INST] Hello. Thank you for your question and welcome to HCM. I understand your concern. It is normal for the blood pressure to fluctuate for some times a day. There are various physiological mechanisms running in the human body that can cause this, such as physical activity, sudden or chronic psychological stress and normal hormonal level fluctuations that happen throughout a day. I can see you are already on therapy for hypertension. Now, if the blood pressure, for the vast part of the day, remains under 140/90 mmHg, then it is called a controlled blood pressure. But if the blood pressure remains higher than these levels, for most parts of the day, then another drug addition to your therapy would be in order, at this time, because higher than above mentioned blood pressure figures can cause and trigger end-organ damages, especially in organs such as the eye and kidneys, which are rich in small-calibre arteries (arteries that are fragile to high blood pressure figures). If the reason you are having these "jumps" in blood pressure, as you provided, is the psychological factor, then I would recommend you first consulting with a psychiatrist or a clinical psychologist, to evaluate the possibility of a 10-14-day trial of treatment with benzodiazepines. Because, on the other hand, if we add blood pressure-lowering therapy, we risk that, in moment with no psychological stress, we can produce lower than normal blood pressure levels, which is also undesired and not our aim. As for the symptoms of weakness, drowsiness and dizziness, I would recommend, first, a complete blood count to assess the levels of hemoglobin. If there are normal levels found, then I would recommend a consult with an ear-nose-throat (ENT) doctor, to understand if these are symptoms coming from the inner ear or common ear infections. I hope I was of help. Take care. Kind regards, Dr. Meriton </s> |
<s>[INST] Will natural remedies help in curing psoriasis without recurrence? [/INST] Thanks for contacting HCMYou are requesting information to possible natural treatments to psoriasis. Unfortunately psoriasis is a chronic condition that will have periods of improvement to be followed by exacerbations.

Your G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) level is low. But clinical correlation is needed in your case. I suggest you investigate with CBC, reticulocyte count estimation, and peripheral smear examination to check whether there is a presence of hemolysis or not. If there is no hemolytic episode, then there is no need to worry. In G6PD deficiency, you have to be alert when you have typhoid and pneumonia. It can lead to oxidative damage and can result in hemolysis. Drugs like Primaquine, Sulpha drugs, Aspirin, and Vitamin K analog should be avoided. Fava beans should be restricted in your diet. </s> |
