Avatar n tn However, since the accidental discovery of an interaction between the calcium channel blocker, felodipine, with grapefruit juice,1 it has now become evident that grapefruit juice has the potential to alter the plasma concentrations of many medications when they are taken by mouth. In some cases, this may result in undesirable clinical effects of medications.
Avatar f tn My youngest child is 11 so it has been quite some time since nursing. Although they were always a little different since nursing 10 years ago, lately it has been quite significant. I have not begun treatment yet as we are still trying to find out how extensive everything is. All I have had was the excisional biopsy without clean margins. I had a MRI and BRCA last week and am getting ultrsound this week based on the MRI findings. It looks like there are other quadrants involved.
Avatar f tn I think the earliest age any babysitter will accept is 3mos old! Does this mean I should take my list off consideration for the nursing program? What if I loose this baby? I lost one dec 2013. Do you think there is any possible way I can have both my dreams? My rainbow baby and getting accepted into the nursing program? I'm 39.
1322157 tn?1279656681 So, I just poured myself a glass of grapefruit juice and took my medicine - then for some reason I remembered that grapefruit juice interacts with some medications. I just did a quick search online and here is a list (probably not complete) of some medications that interact badly with grapefruit juice. Including some opiates....

Avatar n tn In June '08 I was sitting watching TV when my left side from my head down to my leg became stiff and numb. Went to the ER and checked by 5 neuronogists, had scans, MRI & other tests. Their consensus was a brain event in the rt. thalemus. For 2 & 1/2 yrs I was living with a 5 out of 10 sensation but last Dec. '10 as I was having dinner, the sensation became worse like an 8 out of 10 and I'm having increased trouble moving my whole left side.

Avatar m tn Coadministration with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A protease inhibitors, boceprevir and telaprevir, may increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of calcium channel blockers, especially the dihydropyridines (e.g., amlodipine, felodipine, nicardipine, nifedipine, nisoldipine). The mechanism involves inhibition of intestinal and hepatic CYP450 3A4, the isoenzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic clearance of most calcium channel blockers.
Avatar f tn I am active, never sick but use eyedrops for Glaucoma, very slightly elevated blood pressure for which I take a mild 5 mg. Felodipine tab and vytorin for slightly elevated cholestrol. My chol. ratio with meds is 2.3. The last week I have had a great slowing of my pulse. For three days it didn't get over 42 and on one day if got down as low as 37 and then 38 and stayed there all day. My blood pressure has been about the same as it always is....

Avatar n tn Another consideration is nursing...I knew you can nurse in a Maya....that's another one I was looking at...
9663463 tn?1407525554 I started smoking again occasionally (about a pack a week) when my son was about 6 months old, and continued to breastfeed him until he was 2 years old. I always washed my hands and at least wore a jacket outside to smoke that I took off before picking him up. It's a matter of moderation, it's a matter of consideration. Be aware of the smoke on your clothes and skin and avoid allowing it to contact your baby.
Avatar f tn ve been celibate for years too so I think the vaccine would only be a consideration if that situation changed. My social life story over the last few years would also be a potential insomnia cure, but maybe I'll meet someone in the nursing home :) Thanks again for your comments.
Avatar m tn I had decompression for my chiari I 4 years ago. Since the birth of my 4th child this past Jan. 30 2015, all of my symptoms have returned ten fold!! I have had c spine and brain MRI with and without contrast, both were read "normal" with consideration that I have had a decompression. The pain in the occipital area has grown to be so severe and frequent that I have had to take FMLA from work (I am a nurse).
Avatar f tn I know that you have a nursing background but there are some hypertension specialists forum that mention that bystolic has been around in europe for a while and it is a good choice for those who cannot tolerate beta blockers. Blockers are not first choice treatment for hypertension but bystolic is okay, so a bit puzzled with your comment. And as you may know some people find a substantial decrease in panic and anxiety attacks when their hypertension is brought under control.
Avatar n tn Taking in consideration the position of this questionable spot and your staging, I would be very surprised if this is NOT cancer related. The PET scan will definitely give better imaging than a CT scan. Keep us posted.

Avatar m tn He is frail, has congestive heart failure, and lives in a nursing home. The cardiologist there said that he needed to replace his 8 year old pacemaker. Obviously, the operation would require transportation to a hospital. Does this make sense? Is the risk of an adverse outcome outweight the risk of not having the operation performed? Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Avatar f tn But guess what it seems the board of nursing decided he could not practice medicine . So after months of being on medicine that actually helped with my pain and my nerves I do not have a doctor at all and have been out of my meds for 2 months. When I walk into a doctors office I am scared to death to say anything about anything that will actually help me ,medicine wise cause everyone wants to accuse you of being a drug addict !! I AM NOT A DRUG ADDICT !!!
