solodyn

Avatar n tn Solodyn is used for 'acne' and is NOT known for weight loss with it.
Avatar n tn I'm wondering if there's any research supporting a link between solodyn and eye floaters. I was on Solodyn for about 2 months and my vision deteriorated over the same period of time. I have pretty severe floaters that distract me in reading and computer use. Previously a little farsighted but not requiring glasses. Optometrist says the back of my eye looks like "a spiderweb." No retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, etc.
Avatar m tn I just found out that I am 6-7 weeks pregnant and I took Solodyn 115mg for the first month of my pregnancy! I am really scared that this might have harmed my baby. All the websites say to avoid becoming pregnant while taking Solodyn because it has been shown to cause harm to the human fetus. Has anyone been in this situation?
Avatar n tn no results Abt two months ago, I was prescribed Solodyn, I use neutrogena creamy wash, Retin-A and some hydroquinone for the dark spots. The solodyn make me break out in a HEAP of HIVES !! so I stopped taking it about 3 weeks ago and now I have been prescribe Bactrim? It seems that antibiotics are the ONLY thing that cure my acne since I have really oily skin. The topicals dry it out in the beginning, and I only apply a little, but then my sebaceous glands quickly make up for the lack of oil.
1094941 tn?1264559085 I have had a red itchy rash on both sides of my face and then some regular looking bumps too. Above my chin and on the sides of my mouth I have some big blister like bumps that are filled with water and hurt bad. I have treated them with all sorts of things and now my skin feals like sand paper and is so dry. It is very red and irritated and I am so depressed and angry. I don't want to be seen by anyone. I have never had anything like this.
Avatar m tn I saw a dermatologist and he said that it was folliculitis and prescribed me solodyn (minocyciline). The sores on my lips usually last a week, but I usually pop them and they are sore, but no blood or pus comes out. They heal and have dissapeared, but for a little redness that you can't really see unless you look closely in the mirror. Is there still a chance that this is herpes?
Avatar f tn Just want to know two years to the month of my last sexual partner I got sick where I had bad joint pain in my knees and wrists it was difficult to move. If someone had hiv would it take two years or could it have been a reaction to the medication solodyn which does have a side effect of joint pain. I have been tested several times since that encounter and my hiv test even up to febuary when I got sick was negative and the three previous tests before that were negative.
Avatar m tn s twice in the last two years and have been told it was genital herpes at first, but then have no antibodies in my blood test for hsv 1 or 2. Then I went and got checked at a Planned Parenthood and described my symptoms and was told that because of the area of recurring bumps that it was most likely folliculitis and also be tested negative for herpes.
Avatar f tn I have tried so many different medications and treatments but none seem to work long-term and afternoon 14 years of this I am very frustrated and just don’t know what to do. Many of the medications seem to help for a couple of months but then my acne always flares back up. I have seen many doctors and dermatologists and my last one said that if what he put me on now does not work there is not many options left aside from acutane which I REALLY do not want to do.
Avatar m tn I took a blood test for herpes 1 and 2 and it came back negative. In February, I got retested again and it came back negative for both. I went to a dermatologist and he prescribed me solodyn (minocycline) for folliculitis and said that most likely that is what it is. Recently I experienced the same bumps on the same side of my lower lip where my lip meets my skin. I went to get it tested today and the doctor did not test for herpes, but said that it most likely was herpes.
Avatar n tn No sores. But, my left testicle seems sore and my urethra sometimes feels like I have soap in it - seems worse when I am sitting down. Does not burn to pee or ejaculate. Feel like I am stopping to check my penis every ten minutes and it is driving me crazy! HELP!
Avatar n tn Went back to him and he prescribed me epiduo with solodyn. After a few weeks i had tiny red spots on my face and huge pimples. I tried proactive as well and that didnt work. After that i told him the situation over the phone and he said to continue the solodyn with epiduo. i did for another month and nothing happened. He now switced me to cephalaxin and i have been on it for about three days. my whole face now has tiny pimples starting to emerge in areas i never have had them before.
Avatar f tn Yes I have and I also had the same test and my upper gi was also nagative! Try and relax about it which is easier said than done but being that u have had test and doctors said no problem it may just be anxiety I lost a lot of weight worrying in R weeks I lost over 20 lbs n every test came back negative and had 2nd opinions and they too were negative! Hope this helps!
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with severe gastritis caused by H. Pylori this march and the doctor treated me with antibiotics and some antacids. After some time I repeated the test for H. Pylori and it was negative. But the symptoms weren't gone. I had nausea, heartburn, constant fullness and pain in the stomach even after eating little amount of food, loss of the appetite, chronic fatigue (in the past I've also had candida infections).
Avatar f tn I had similar syptoms four years ago and was diagonsed with diverticulitus if its bad I have anti biotics but when I feel it coming on I drink peppermint tea especially morning and night and now and again ginger ale. It helps and sometimes I can stop an attack before it comes too bad. I suggest you go back to your doctor and ask to be tested for diverticulitus of Irritable bowl syndrome.
Avatar m tn If the pain is above your navel, that is where your stomach is, so check out the diet and possibility of ulcers...and no drinking alcohol until you find out....
Avatar f tn I am a 30 year old female, and for quite a long time I get stomach discomforts from time to time. I do suffer with depression for which I have been taking sertraline for the last 6 months (this all started way before this though) The best way to give you my symptoms is to list them with how often they reoccur.
Avatar f tn s burger, but no chicken nuggets, I tend to eat alot of pasta with butter and parm cheese, it has put some weight on me but it is okay on my stomach. Try to eat chicken, fish, some red meat, and go easy on the junk food and soda if you drink it and let me know how you make out.
Avatar n tn For the past year i have been dealing with on and off stomach problems. It started with getting sick in the middle of the night after drinking beer. So sick i thought it was food poisoning. That happen the next time i drank(2drinks) also. So i stopped drinking. What has been happening sence then is out of no where i feel weak for a day. Almost like i am getting the flu and then i have mild pain in my upper abdomen and my stomach feels like it is burning with acid.
Avatar m tn If your symptoms do not go away, then you need to see a Gastroenterologist, he is most likely going to do an Endoscopy to take a look and see if your stomach lining is inflamed or if you have an ulcer, If you do have to see a Gastro, stop taking any Acid Pump Prohibitors ie: Prilosec, Omeprazole etc, these medications supress HPylori and any tests will come up negative, even if the bacteria is present.
Avatar n tn shortly after went outside for walk almost immediately got hot, sweaty, heart rate increased, stomach and body feeling very weird...went back to room but continued to be fevered and stomach upset for two three hours...went to emergency and they did EKG and bloodwork (think they were looking for gallbladder) - all results came back fine...

Constipation is an important cause of hair loss.Once it is treated,hair loss will also be treated. Increase the fiber amount in your diet.

I've had my glablater checked also and everything came up fine.i have had constipation my whole life, it's not that i know my body i wish someone could help me! i get weak, tired, pains in my rightside, feel like im going to pass out, vomiting sometimes and now a very weird feeling like there's something very wrong with me.
Avatar f tn right side of rib cage, went from constipated to going all of the time. Everytime I eat my stomach bloats and I have to use restroom. Horrible pain after I eat also. Feeling of fullness...even if all I eat is a cracker. They have done blood work, xrays,ct scan,ultrasound of gallbladder and everything is normal. They recently did more blood work, stool samples and I have an endoscope & colonostmy scheduled. My stool goes from black tary to normal color and liquid. I'm at my wits end!
Avatar m tn But i have been drinking the Valerian Root Tea for few days now and from yesterday i started having this stomach pain. And when i go to bathroom its not normal. It feels like i have diarrhea but i dont but i feel like i need to go to bathroom. I wanted to know if these herbal teas could cause this kind of stomach discomfort. I havent been drinking anymore Valerian Root Tea today but i still have the stomach problems.
Avatar f tn Now I have a severe everyday pain lower right side abdomen, I’m clear of appendix and ovary problems and have good, healthy periods. I had a calprotectin test that came up 338, I have impaction of feces and I am now anemic. Does anyone have any ideas on what this is ?
Avatar m tn This initally had good results, but I have evolved into mild constipation and the stomach distress and gas seems to be escalating again. I am taking 300mcg Synthroid, 5mcg Cytomel,daily, vitamins, one HCL and a Digestive enzyme with each meal. I feel pretty good with current thyroid regime, though I do need 10hr of sleep to feel normal, it takes awhile to get going am, and still feel moody. I eat well, lots of veges , cooked and raw, fruit, low meat intake, lots of water.
