1131756 tn?1260242312 The ways to determine heart function and structure are a few tests. Stress test, echo, ekg, cardiac MRI, cardiac CT, nuke stress test. not in that order and not all are required. The basics are getting electrophysiology studied (EKG or stress test), then structure-efficiency (Echo, MRI, CT). Cardiac MRI is quite expensive but it's one of the best tests. It takes a specialized MRI to conduct this test.
Avatar m tn So I went to my new cardiologist today and he was pretty upset that my old one didn't order any tests for my pvc's other then a holter. So he is giving me a echo and a stress test next week, well i'm pretty scared to do the stress test I havn't ran since my pvcs because i'm so scared i'm just gonna fall over. How long do they make you run for? and how fast do they make you run? And is there going to be a dr/nurse there to do CPR if anything bad happens?
Avatar m tn Can hemorrhoids kill you? I have one and it's causing me to bleed a lot from my rectum. But it stops after a few minutes. But every time I take a dump it makes it bleed again!

Avatar f tn Without a serious underlying medical problem, no, anxiety can NOT kill you, neither can a panic attack, as scary as they may feel. Obviously, what you're doing right now isn't managing the anxiety at all, therefore, you need to have a discussion with your doctor about how to proceed. I also highly recommend trying an SSRI type antidepressant, like Zoloft, Celexa, Prozac. They have been very effective in treating anxiety disorders.
Avatar n tn Yes, they just want you to heat it up first to kill any Bacteria that might be on it. For instance, I now get my subs toasted at subway.
Avatar m tn To be honest, with your age, I would think if you are showing any signs of disease, you will be catching it early. You say there is a family history, but you do know fitness is one of the key things for a healthy heart and normal blood pressure? Are you eating healthy? don't smoke? how is your blood cholesterol level? Stress does cause a lot of problems if prolonged but you can lower the risks considerably with the above suggestions.
1381129 tn?1279167790 You won't have a real period while pregnant. A lot of things can cause weight gain, but from what you put you don't have any. It sounds like bloat, retention, or could be stress. If you're worried about pregnancy you should be able to take any test and get accurate results now.
Avatar m tn Hi, I know there are a lot of people like me that just can't eat all that **** thats suppose to be good for you. I just can't stand the taste of the foods. The ONLY foods I really like are BAD. The doctors tell you to eat right and exercise. Well, as long as I can tast the food, I can't eat right (will power is a bunch of bull) and with rods in my back I can't do the exercise. So, the only thing I can come up with is to kill my taste buds. Does anyone know how to do that?
1298588 tn?1330318981 but to do that you have to realize they are not going to kill you and are no way life threatening. If you can manage that, you take away their teeth and they quit being the life controlling monster that they were. I could have written your post myself some years ago. I let panic and OCD just about take over my life. Do not do that, get help now. A good therapist can help you so much. And you really could benefit by taking some meds for your anxiety. I am scared to death of new meds.
Avatar f tn o srry i didnt realize u was trying to have a baby you can take a at home pregnancy and i will definitely pray for u!
Avatar f tn there is always a chance for pregnancy only way not to is no sex i got pregnant with my first child on depo i would take a test close to your period and keep a close eye on it if u believe u could be pregnant see your doctor
Avatar m tn With all of the testing you have had done I can tell you, this is NOT a heart issue. If you had any heart issues serious enough to kill you, you would never be able to do the exercising you are doing. Get help for the anxiety and panic attacks.
Avatar f tn He didn't ejaculate in you. You can't get pregnant with it touching your clit. So regardless if it does kill it or not there's no chance of it happening.
Avatar f tn so thanks to everybody who answered my questions and can finally put this nightmare behind me and to everyone else let me tell you stress and anxiety can literallly kill you when it comes to this test dont let your mind and fear take over I know its hard because I've gone thru hell these past 6 months but its over now thanks everybody good luck.
Avatar f tn No, if you are UND, the virus is currently not dectectable. Stress does not make the virus return. It's how the imune system and the meds work together to kill the virus and keep it from coming back. Relapse doesn't happen because of stress, it's this hateful virus that finds ways to hide and mutate and once meds are stopped, rears it's ugly head again. Now quit stressing over it!
6822962 tn?1396329659 I think you should sit down with your OB and gently ask him what he means- so he can tell you the precise reasons whyvhe is saying that. My sister had a friend who had 1 child (I think he was 7yrs or so) and she really wanted a second child. Her OB had warned her Never to get pregnant again, or she would die. Well, she got pregnant and changed doctors, and never went back to her previous OB. Sadly she did die in the last weeks of pregnancy. Her body could not handle another pregnancy.
