Avatar f tn A problem is, testosterone varies a whole lot in both men and women, by the day, hour, week, etc. and even more in women than men, so the only true way to know if you had abnormally low levels would have been to test you a lot, not just twice. You did have the same levels twice, so it might be a problem. A question would be, how's your sexual desire? How's your stamina? How's your ability to build muscle? How's your energy levels?

Avatar f tn Can someone please just sum up what having heartburn feels like, I know it's common in pregnant women so I knew it would come I just never knew how it would feel, I want to make sure this is really heartburn that I'm feeling and not anything serious bc this feeling truly *****, its feels like my throat and chest are just collapsing (that's a bit dramatic) but it really is an uneasy feeling, my throat is very irritated, my whole inside just feels really gasy...
1507909 tn?1313633804 Heartburn and lots of hair is an old wives tale. I know lots of women who had heartburn and a baby born with a full head of hair. I also known that lots of women who had heartburn and the baby was born with next to no hair.
1284945 tn?1295351265 I have felt that pain before in my pregnancy. I spoke with my doctor about it and she said many women experience pain like that in their breasts. I would suggest you speak with your doc about it, too. The other discomforts are common pregnancy symptoms, like Karen explained.
Avatar f tn it is concerned, your stomach is being pushed out of position and there is nothing to do to change that, short of having the baby. Some women simply do get extreme heartburn from this involuntary repositioning of their internal arrangement, others (the lucky ones) don't. As as far as treating the symptom, ask your ob-gyn for a list of approved heartburn meds (don't take just anything, ask your doc or your pharmacist).
Avatar f tn Youvcan take tums. Just try to watch how.much and how often you take them. Another trick is peppermints. Pretty much any of the hard candy kind will help.
Avatar n tn One of the causes of globus is GERD. Since you had heartburn also, the most likely cause of globus in you is GERD. Take PPI like Prilosec for 4-8 weeks for relief.
198627 tn?1203054007 please refer back to what I said about the stats. That kind of MI can and does happen in women just as a more diffuse MI can happen in men. Mike, I really don't mean to slam your advice, which for the most part, I thought was good, but another thing, as an ex-paramedic, you know that in the event of an MI, every second counts and waiting 30+ minutes for a med to get into our systems could mean the difference between life and death.

Avatar f tn I am just about 5 weeks and today I have some of the worst heartburn I have ever experienced. There are tears. I have tried milk, baking soda and water and lastly Gaviscon. Nothing is working. Anyone have any tricks? I am definately going to be losing some sleep over this bout tonight.
Avatar n tn I was not taking anything for the heartburn when I started on the Harvoni as I did not want to take a chance of lessening the effects of it. After a couple of weeks, the heartburn got really bad and I was really having some problems. I was instructed to take 20mg Omeprozole (Prilosec), and not more than that daily at the same time (morning) as the Harvoni on an empty stomach. After a day I was feeling much better and a week later, I feel great!
