welchol

Avatar m tn I then moved into my own place, and a week ago I got severe pressure at my temples that literally feels like my skull is being crushed. I also started to feel woozy when walking and really off balance. My balance has never been great but I feel really off. Some days my ears will feel completely clogged like I am on an airplane but they just never pop, and this radiates down my back.
401016 tn?1201451802 Try going low fat and see if it helps. And if you can control the loose stools with calcium instead of the welchol, it might be good to try to do so. Google 'lnape and calcium.' You should find posts from L Nape discussing the use of a specific form of calcium and it's use. But don't use the calcium if you are prone to stone formation, or if you have parathyroid problems.
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 d be housebound! The problem with the med, is that it cannot be taken with any others, and is taken 2X a day. This was a management problem for me, as I took it AM & Eve. which left me noon for pain, BP, etc. meds. Recently, I went back to reg. meds in AM, and Welchol at noon and eve. and it's fine. I also regulate how much Welchol I take to control diarrhea vs. constipation.
Avatar n tn However, this is not my case-my diarrhea is if anything worse and more frequent. No certain foods cause it- one day I can eat something and have diarrhea, the next day eat the same thing and nothing. Sometimes it occurs immediately after I eat (before I've even finished my meal) and then other times it occurs the following morning. It's very aggravating and hard to go out and eat (not sure what's going to happen).
1139187 tn?1355706647 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.

Its sad i would cry so much but i had a little girl after that shes about to be 3 and now I'm expecting another one. I cant lie im scared after that first miscarriage but im staying positive and hoping for the best.
Avatar f tn My husband and I just got into a huge argument because he accidentally threw away my baby girls ultrasound pictures. I had them in an envelope because I was taking them to work to show people, and he mistakenly thought it was trash while he was cleaning and threw them out. Unfortunately the garbage man has already come and gone so they are definitely gone. Of course I was upset, but I didn't get angry with him because mistakes happen.
Avatar f tn My parents doesn't know I'm pregnant yet I've been scared to tell them especially my dad. But me and my boyfriend found a house and are moving in togather I told parents about the house and that I wanna move with him. And my dad's response was that I'm gonna get pregnant and be his biggest disappointment. This totally just crushed me now I don't even wanna tell him about his little grandson at all.

Avatar n tn Londres is certainly correct that there are a few other options available to treat what could be assumed to be familial hypercholesterolaemia, even though your doctor has obviously tried those that would be most obvious. Generally, if you experience muscle weakness as a side effect of Lipitor (atorvastatin), other statins will produce similar effects, so that eliminates the use of Zocor (simvastatin), Crestor (rosuvastatin) etc.
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 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 f tn They said I needed two more detoxing supplements that can only be ordered from a doctor, so there is another 90 bucks. They're going to retest in a week. Anybody else had kidney trouble with Lyme? I have not had any UTIs or bladder problems, but my eGFR was a bit low even before I got diagnosed. Now, with all my abx, it is really low and the Creatinine is too high.
Avatar m tn Thank you :)
Avatar n tn I had two miscarriages in 1 year. Now im devastated. Will I can be a mother. I m crushed. Both pregnancies ended in 6-7 weeks.
Avatar f tn I was in a one-car accident on April 18. I was placed in an Aspen Collar (for about 3-months), dislocated a shoulder and broke three-ribs. I blacked out prior to the accident and have no memory of anything strange or any unusual feelings prior to blacking out. The original angiogram and x-rays also show degenerative disks C5,-C6 & C7. Could this be the problem.? The doctors tell me my injuries will heal themselves but we need to find out why I blackout out.
