I took my dog Sadie in to the vet a week ago(9/21). The night before I took her in she was limping and refusing to use her right hind leg. Which progressed in to her not using both back legs and then not walking (within 12 hours). They performed a snap test which came back positive. They evaluated her and said it's highly likely it was ehrlichia because of her blood work and she also had ocular hemorrhaging (mainly in her iris's). Her platelets and RBC were low at the time.
I have a pain since 1996 somewhere inside my lower abdomen. I had a radiating pain down my right leg. Later it was diagnosed that i had a kidney stone and I did lithotripsy for the same. My contnued even after that and one doctor came close to my pain by diagnosing that I have chronic prostitis. An intercourse or slight erection gives me severe pain inside my anal area for which I press my buttocks to table corner or so to have a relief. I also apply hot water bag.
The vet tried 4 different antibiotics ( amoxicillin, then rilexine then Zeniquin and last doxycycline) and none have cleared the infection. After the doxycycline in liquid form my dog has been vomiting constantly. He can’t seem to swallow comfortably anymore. Even water seems to be a problem. His breath is very acidic. I tried to give him food through the syringe but he vomits everything, even after water. I gave him subq to keep him hydrated.
t even know if the old one was normal or not, no md ever said I had a kidney issue, I just finished 12 weeks of treatment and am undetected but now I am freaked out by these kidney numera
I wrote my md but have not heard back yet
Doesn't anyone know or understnad this, I am having trouble understanding what I read from google searches
Thanks CH
When HIV has low body weight (less than 60kg or about 130 lbs) they found higher kidney damage and found lowering Viread dose helps in this population.
Is this transferable to HBV? I am low body weight at 115 lbs (eat healthy and exercise). I am worried about kidney damage as my age increases (now 41), with low body weight, and knowing this medication is long term/for life.
How common is kidney damage on HBV only? I do not want to have to worry about my kidneys now too on top of HBV.
just pain in lower abdominal area. I took doxycycline and started peeing better but the pain is now permenent. any suggestions? tests? prostate maybe? who should i go see?
Higher than normal level of creatinine may be attributed to a variety of issues such as blocked urinary tract, dehydration, muscle problems as well as kidney problems, such as kidney damage or failure, infection, or reduced blood flow. It is best that you discuss the management plan with his attending physician for proper evaluation.
I have talked to a doctor about this and he said that someone can still have damage, and test again and it will show...IDK..As far as kidneys., I have never had a kidney infection until i started and even stopped using pills....I plan on getting my liver checked again soon....I pray your results come out good....Let us know..
5 year old yellow lab that was recently limping, so she was taken to the vet and they did blood work and the blood work suggested Kidney Failure. Her creatine level was 4.1 and BUN/UREA 64 mg/dl. She spent 2 days in the ER getting fluids and medication. She's on amlodipine Besylate, Maropitant, prednisolone, doxycycline.
She has struggled to eat, been very tired and isn't herself at all. Its been 4 days since she came home from the ER and she's slowly gotten worse.
In fact, there would be no harm in discussing the Doxycycline reatment and your concerns about side effects with your vet anyway, and it would be perfectly in order to call the vet's office, ask if there is a time during the day you can speak to your vet when he is not busy. No doubt he will call you back when he has a moment to discuss the treatment with you.
Hello Ursamere.
As you probably know, we're not physicians here, but are happy to share our experiences with you so you can explore the ideas further with your diabetes team. I'm also a long-time DMer - about 35 years.
5.6 is an excellent a1c and as one who's not (yet) achieved an a1c under 6, I admire the work & discipline it takes to achieve that.
If I were to squeeze one of my testicles I feel almost nothing, no kidney pain either. I have no sensation of hot and cold in my penis. I use viagra for sex but I can't get off, it's like using morning wood for sex (numb feeling).I can get off by myself but not easily. Any ideas on what might have happened and if the damage is irreversible?
On Easter weekend I had began to experience pain in my back and abdomen, and on Easter Sunday I urinated blood and freaked out. My mom talked me off the ledge and I decided not to go to the ER but visit the campus doctor. They ran a urine test and I came back negative for chlamydia and gonorrhea. They did say blood was present in my urine as well as a slight uptick of white blood cells. My memory is vague on all the information, but I was prescribed Doxycycline for 7 days.
I am allergic to sulfa and pcn. Many testings reveal no kidney abnormalities nor stones. Could this strain of clamydia be resistant because of my multipe courses of antibotics. Thank you in advance for your time.

The only way to truly ease your mind is by being totally honest with him/her. I have liver damage and kidney damage due to drugs stage 2 liver stage 3 kidney.. if your liver were damaged and you had a flare your belly would be extended/pain upper right you would be lethargic/vomiting.. other symptoms but these being severe.. It is not fun and I would not wish it on anyone.. I contracted hep C from slamming and further continued the damage through pills/alcohol..
