Avatar f tn hi Roolx, I understand your concern. Medical testing is done in a "different language" than we are accustomed to. I think your lab screens are perfectly on the up and up. Let me see if I can help you a bit. It's been awhile since I've interrupted lab results. Different labs sometimes use different terms than other labs. So what is a SMA 12 at one lab might be a Chem 12 at another and before that they were known as SMAC. It can be confusing.
Avatar f tn t know if urine test gives the same result as blood test. Has anyone used Glucotest or PawCheck? Both are home tests. Appreciate any feedback.
Avatar f tn Hello. Okay Im 2weeks late on my period now. And this morning I've done the test but still the result was negative. I used the disclosure urine pregnancy test. I've been feel tired recently,bloating,back pain and nausea. One more thing that I aware was my heartbeat became fast. Is that normal ?But what's wrong with my hcg's level? All that I know is the urine test came positive when you are on 5-6weeks pregnant. What is the chance that Im pregnant ? So confused and need help.
Avatar f tn Metro gel is for bacteria vaginosis. Ask your doctor for appreciate treatment. They can do a ph test to see if your bacteria level is normal. Yeast looks lumpy and white work itching. 2 different treatments for the 2 conditions.
Avatar m tn Amphetamine is speed. It is a controlled prescription substance, but is also found on the street and is illegal in that form. Street names are meth, crank, crystal. If this was also found in your urine along with the clonazepam, and you did not take either, then it would be good to see if you can retake the urine test.
Avatar m tn Just a guess- we used gas/chrom mass spectrometry in Organic and Biochemistry labs. They show the different organic chemicals and structures found in a liquid sample. So if they're doing this test on urine, it would make sense that they're looking for organic chemicals such as proteins that shouldn't be in the urine. A quick urine test usually shows that there is protein and how much, but it doesn't say what kind; a GCMS would.
6905554 tn?1386942249 There is no reliable test for men. Some are doing anal smears or penil smears but even if the results were negative, it would only mean those areas don't have any virus. Other areas with genital skin could be infected. Symptoms of the low risk strains are genital warts in the genital skin area. No symptoms does not mean you don't have it. High risk strains usually do not produce genital warts.
Avatar m tn So I would assume this would not be driven by any STD. Also two urine cultures came back healthy as did a urine dip test. I am a male who just turned 40. Is this normal? Does anything sound like something I should really be worried about?
Avatar m tn Don't worry about the silly test. If it's a urine test the medications will show up in your urine, especially the methadone. It has a very long half life. Please reconsider the way you are taking your medication and be honest with your self and the doctors. You will be much better off in the short and long run. good luck.
Avatar f tn I did a Google search, Prozac is not included in the routine urine test, as to the others, there is a possibility of false positives, so again, be sure to tell the tester what you are taking. Good luck on getting the job.
Avatar f tn My longest amount of time between periods is 45 days. I have been using fertiity friend for about a year and tracking ovulation because I am TTC. Looking over my chart I see that I may have ovulated on the 7th or 8th. Now it is 46 days since my last period and if I DID in fact ovulate on one of those dates I would be about 6 weeks pregnant right now.
Avatar m tn s the burning sensation or feeling that is causing a lot of discomfort in me every time I think that something is wrong!! Is this all in my mind? Can my mind be that strong to create this level of anxiety? In addition, is it possible for one to get HIV even if there are no signs for other STD infections? A worried stupid fool...

Avatar f tn My current PM is not the best........he cancels every other appt....he has 4 x's forgot to bring my file with him. Also, once he argued with me that he would have never given me Vicodin ES 2x a day. He finally got his trusted computer and was proven wrong! I do not appreciate the treatment he gives me! Since Sept I was on one Vicodin ES, then for the past 2 months I got him reluctantly to give me 2 a day. Which by itself still only gives me 4 hrs a day of having no pain.
Avatar m tn I have given a urine sample for chlamydia this morning but I am rather surprised how negligent my doctor has been having known what you are telling me. Should I have to take the gonorrhea test as well?
Avatar f tn My doctor has an assistant, not a nurse, who assists her with checking patient vitals, etc. the assistant makes frequent demands for a urine test...4 in the last 8 months which seem excessive to me. She gets quite testy if I am unable to comply and has left an unpleasant message on my phone once. Today she brought me a full paper cup of water and insisted I drink it. Am I legally required to submit to these tests? Is there a certain number of urine tests required per year?
Avatar m tn You do not need a test you were protected and the test you are thinking of doing is not used as a diagnostic test, it can be but the test gives false positives frequently enough that it is not used. Since you have already given blood for this test at 30 days if it is negative (I am sure it will be) so are you and you can move on with confidence you did not acquire HIV. Good luck.
Avatar f tn Like many women, it would probably be better to make a doctors appointment rather than worry ourselves with our own research. BUT, here is my what's going on. Between a week and a week and a half, starting around 02-01-13 I started spotting dark brown blood, not enough to fill a tampon.
Avatar m tn is it 100% safe from all infections to order used panties online and masturbate into them? no it is not. is it pretty much low risk and not worth this much worry about? yes it is.
Avatar m tn Gave Urine Test again for gonorrhea and chlamydia. Test is negative. Given order for urine test for U. Urealyticum and a Kidneys-Ureters-Bladder Xray. Get the results of both Xray and Urine Culture on Monday 8/25. Questions: How many men usually become cured of urethritis? Could this be something completely unrelated to my sexual encounter? Should the doctor have told me to finish taking the meds? Anything anyone can help me with would be a great help. Thanks guys!!
