welchol

Avatar f tn It turned out to be the welchol I had started on to decrease my cholesterol. I felt bloated, constipated, a little dizzy and a fast heart rate every late afternoon and evening. I was very fatigued and just felt lousy all over. I have to admit that the pressure feeling in the esophagus was the scarriest.
Avatar f tn I am curious if you tried cholestramine or welchol pills for detox? I use the welchol because I can't drink liquid meds.
401016 tn?1201451802 I would assume they're giving you welchol for diarrhea and the Ami for GI spasms. This is a combination that is given to many (or combinations like it) when someone is experiencing unexplained abdominal pain (perhaps due to spasms) and diarrhea. Ami is used fairly frequently in GI problems, so don't consider it a 'head med.' It is, but in this case it's probably being used to work on the receptors in your GI tract - not your head, although it will do that, too.
Avatar m tn I am an adult female with one eye that glows in photos, looking back over the years I was able to find 15 photos back to 2012 where I have the one (same eye glowing) in photos. I do have an astigmatism in both eyes and I was not wearing glasses/contacts when these photos were taken.
Avatar m tn Can anyone explain to me why I still had a heart attack even while taking the following meds atenenol 50mg bid, HCTZ 25mg daily, zetia 40mg daily, plavix 25mg daily, welchol 625mg bid. Also what is the chance of a second heart attack My Aortic Valve, Tricuspid Valve, and my Mitral Valve are failing because they are stenotic and regurgitative. The Aortic valve is in the worst shape of the three they tell me. I have psoriatic arthritis and ankolosing spondylitis. all joints are involved.
Avatar f tn I have an answer for you. I too had my GB out, and soon after had the same symptoms. I DIAGNOSED IT myself....not much initial help from the gastro MD. It is called "biliary diarrhea". It's fairly common, surprisingly. Apparantly has no reflection on the quality of the surgery (I had the short cut method). However, good news: I've beern able to control it, for which I do give gastro MD credit....The cholesterol drug Welchol. Without it I'd be housebound!
Avatar n tn Ask your doctor about Welchol; it's a cholesterol medicine that binds bile salts. I had mine taken out in February of last year and tried to "tough it out," but after a doctor put me on Welchol, I rarely ever get sick after eating.
255722 tn?1452546541 Now I am following Burascanos protocol for Barts, which is levaquin and welchol for detox, I am having problems with the welchol so had to cut back. My idea is so many LLMD's try so many different protocols it is just a matter of luck. What works for some may not work for others.
Avatar m tn I have been tested for all STDs various times and the results are negative. The meatus glows a bright red at time to time, especially after sex or placing pressure upon it.
Avatar n tn Lipitor caused severe muscle weakness, Zetia caused all kind of digestive problems and Pravachol zapped my energy...my count actually went up 30 points while taking WelChol! My doctor is telling me that I have no other choices of medicine to lower my count (total 285, HDL 106 VLDL 21, LDL 188, Triglycerids 106.) My sister is having the same problem so I guess this problem is a family thing. I am really troubled by my doctor's lack of concern.
Avatar n tn I take (2) 500mg of metformin at breakfast and supper. I also take powder welchol at supper. I would like to take my 1000mg of Januvia at bedtime to help lower my morning blood sugar readings that usually run in the 150's to 160, Any cons to taking the Januvia without food at bedtime?
Avatar f tn s like a faded pink/orange patch at the top of my penis, just left/below pee hole, whenever I ejaculate, whether it be intercourse or solo, it glows blood red for a couple of hours before returning to normal. Once returned to normal the penis glans then turn very dry and wrinkled. Is this normal? All happened since I got thrush but then cured the thrush, this has stayed?!!
Avatar n tn So I found a condom that glows in the dark , unused in its package , the package was little bit damaged ( it had a small cut probably because people might have stepped on it , and the color of the package was faded as well ). The condom didn't have any fluids or what so ever, it was unused , just a little sand ( I live near the beach ) . So I wore it just to see how the condom looks . Is it possible that i have caught any STDs ? I am so worried. I want to do a blood test .
Avatar n tn I did not have any problems until then. I suffered with IBS for years until my Gastro doctor put me on Welchol and it is wonderful I take 3 pills a day and I can get anything I want and I don't have any IBS episodes anymore. I am not afraid to go out anywhere anymore. But I have another problem.
Avatar m tn the first two times, there were a few blockages - 10, 18 and 20% The last time was in December 2013 with a different cardiologist (I moved across the state) and he said I had NO blockages at all. HUH??? My lipid profiles are still horrible even with medications. Pravacol, Tricor and Welchol. His answer for this question was: "Those medications took the blockages away." Of course, I am no doctor but this seems funny to me.
Avatar n tn My face is red all over. It has always been red. For years I've always thought it's my natural skin colour. But then I started a complete and good skincare routine about a year ago and when I wake up in the morning my skin glows and it's not red. However, as time goes it turns red again in the day. What can be the cause of the redness? How can I get rid of it?
Avatar f tn Hello, I would like to get some information for reassurance, since my wife has a small surgical procedure, and I am a bit suspicions about the doctor who perform this procedure about his status, I have notice some skin changes on the doctor. He perform the procedure with glows so I should not to be worry about transmission. But I am still worry .
1139187 tn?1355706647 I have about 600 welchol tablets that my insurance company accidently over-sold me. I cant take this medication any longer. It was prescribed to me because of gallbladder removal. Can I do anything with this medication since I will not be taking it? Its in 3 huge , sealed bottles.
Avatar n tn You may want to ask the doc if he can try a bile binding resin like questran or somehting like Welchol. There's also the possibility that calcium could help. But it has to be in a specific form and take ant specific times of the day. Google 'lnape and calcium,' and look at the information provided. The contraindication would be if he has a history of kidney stones or parathyroid problems.
Avatar f tn This summer my doctor diagnosed the shocks of pain through my right hand has Carpel Tunnel. I live in Michigan so when the cold came around in November, my right hand has started doing something strange. My right pointer finger now turns white and goes numb whenever I step outside. Now you may think I just need to wear gloves, the thing is that this occurs with even holding a cold class. My friends call me ET because it's so white it almost glows.
Avatar m tn That day while taking blood from a patient a small amount of blood spilled on my glows and I removed it and work bare handed that day and did more than 10 testings from different patients. But unfortunately after having the lunch a small clot of blood on my index finger of right hand. I've taken a gentle handwash before taking the lunch. So my question is if the clotted blood was from a hiv infected person will I get infected.
Avatar m tn s been undergoing a Welchol treatment for the last 5 to 6 months and has only been able to take 1/2 pack every second day due to the pain but she feels she's on the right path. I, of course, am doubtful, been that route before. Again, thank you for taking so much time for us and for the others you help.
Avatar f tn Try not to miss the carbs too much and if u can be bothers to cook google oh how she glows... Canadian healthy chef. Has frequently awesome carb and sugar free deserts.
689528 tn?1364135841 I have one that times how long the baby has been sleeping, when I last changed the diaper, when she last ate and for how long and even an option to see which breast (if you are breastfeeding) it also glows in the dark and has a night light so that I can see all the information in the dark. Its called an "Itzbeen Baby Care Timer" and is sold at babiesrus for like 20 I think. It also comes in useful because you can use it to time contractions. http://www. toysrus .com/product/index.
Avatar f tn You can contract ringworm from your cat, and your cat can pass it to other cats. Ringworm also glows under a blacklight. Really. If you think your cat has this, you should go to the vet to have it treated.
