2178116 tn?1337609281 t really have symptoms other than ridges on the finger nails with some wanting to split, weight gain, heart rate sometimes in the 40s. I am generally in good health and active. Any suggestions? I don't want it to keep heading in the wrong direction.
Avatar m tn I have vertical ridges on my thumbs as well and peeling fingernails and the peeling fingernails is due to being hypothyroid. So you might want to check your TSH level as well. Have you felt tired? The high blood pressure can change with going down on meat, and dairy products, no oil or fried foods and exercising more. If you are type 2 diabetic there is a diet that will reverse both of these but it is vegan and oil and fat free and takes a lot of work to get used to.
Avatar f tn I appear to have developed ridges on my fingernails, they run vertically. Is there a medical reason for these ridges or fine vertical lines on my nails?
Avatar f tn Anyone have terrible fingernails with their VDD? I ask because for the past few years my nails have been very blah, the minute they start to grow they just split and peel. Now, I have noticed being on the VD for the past few weeks/months my nails finally seem to be growing slowly and not splitting or peeling, yet anyhow.

Avatar n tn I am a professional guitar player with growing concerns over the health of my fingernails. Over the past 5 years, I have practiced guitar daily on average of 3-4 hrs a day, with 1 hr a day minimum on "off" days. Since the start, I've noticed that the nail bed (and subsequently the overall length of the nail) of my ring finger on the left (guitar fretting) hand has gradually shortened.

Avatar n tn I have a noticed a small tear or split on my penis opening. The cut is vertical and has continued down the line of the opening. When i urinate the stream is more spread out. It didn't bleed or anything it is not that noticeable when not erect. It has not become infected. Should i see a doctor? will it tear even more? what treatment is there? will it heal? should i see a doctor, if so will a GP be alright or will i need a urologist?
745313 tn?1323142298 I knew about the thinning hair, which I am experiencing to a much, MUCH worse degree than I expected (but hey, it's summer!! ) But I have never read anything about tx affecting your fingernails. It only makes sense, as they are both made of the same thing - but has anyone else had this problem? Mine are awful! They are like paper, thin, peeling, and constantly ripping, even though they are cut completely short.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had fingernails split down middle? What does 9,430,000 iu - 6.
Avatar f tn I have been feeling very weak, fatigued, no appetite, deep vertical ridges in fingernails, freezing cold hands and feet; I have hot, stabbing, deep aching pain in my right foot that seems to alternate all over, like a new pain in a different area of my right foot daily, and memory loss. I struggle to find words. My lab tests results: I have high RBC 4.99 (and have had in the past, only sometimes it’s normal), high Hemotocrit 44, low RDW 11.9, low MCHC 32.
Avatar m tn Now what? They hurt when you push on them, but I don't remember hitting them hard enough to cause this kind of bruise. I see my hepatologist for the big decision on when to treat and with what. I hope it's not still whether to treat, unless it is because someone else posted that another really good drug is getting FDA approval in August. Should I show them to him or call my regular doctor? Meanwhile, my fingernails are getting "wavy" and one is split down the middle.
Avatar f tn 3- Two days ago I noticed ridges on 2 fingernails while the rest of nails have vertical lines without ridges. Treatment: 1-I went to ENT after my 6 weeks symptoms and he gave me gargle which did not work. 2-After 52 days of last exposure I went to another ENT specialistand I told him about my sexual exposure so he requested Sypillis and anti Hiv tests besides throat swap culture. 3- Throat swap culture shows normal streptococcus bacteria and ENT told me the result is fine.
Avatar m tn i was not fully erected. so she compressed my penis glan with her fingernails hardly to put it into her vagina. and then we had vaginal sex. i was wearing condom. but she compressed my glan so hardly. condom was not broken, but it might have small slits maybe i dont know. the next day i saw a little (1mm diameter) wound on my glan - where she compressed. can hiv be transmitted from her vaginal fluid to my wound on my glan even though the wound's so small, if condom has small slits.
Avatar f tn Hi, about 7 months ago I had unprotected once, which I ejaculated in the person. About 3 weeks later I got an cold sore on my mouth but I’ve been getting cold sores all my life so I didn’t think anything of it. Then about 2 weeks later I started to google symptoms of HIV & I started to get them. The symptoms were, 1. Night sweats 2. Mild Sore throat/ fever 3. Muscle aches 4. Diarrhea 5. Rash’s. But I never got flu like symptoms.
Avatar m tn I have a question, I have a degenerative myopia -20 glasses prescription. I started to notice wavy lines and was told that I have split retina. My question is how does split retina affect vision and what does future hold. I am 35 years old and very concerned for my future. If the split gets bad, do you lose your vision? Thank you so much.
Avatar f tn Not sure if it helped the hair loss or not, but it helped my fingernails. I finally discontinued the MTX ~1 month ago . About 1 week after stopping MTX, I stopped my folinic acid and my hair loss seems to be worse and also my nails are splitting and my tongue is sore. ( I also had 2 Remicaid infusions 2 months ago in August and 1 week of Arava in May and am on Plaquenil (past 4 months and for awhile in the past).
Avatar f tn It only appears on the plain surfaces, it doesn’t create blind spots, it’s in entire visual field and not hemisphere split, it ONLY is visible if I do this exact hyper awareness experiment, no other symptoms occur. Anyone heard of this?
Avatar n tn On the other hand, splinter hemorrhages appear as a red to reddish-brown fine, vertical line that resembles a splinter beneath the nail, this disorder occurs when blood vessels in the nail bed are damaged or from a nail injury. If a dark spot or streak appears on any nail, and is not the result of an injury, it must be examined by a dermatologist to rule out melanoma.
Avatar f tn t is because I have a vertical incision about 6 inches long from an umbilical hernia I got when I was pregnant with my first. I got so big my stomach muscles split.
Avatar f tn I have discovered that to see this it has to be in the middle part of my vision because if its lower or higher it will appear normal. I can also make the split light go away by looking up or down. It also does not appear when I am closer to the light. I can also see this sometimes with other lighting as well and even objects but not as noticeable. I have found a condition called Vertical Heterophoria that i'm thinking may be causing this split lighting.

Avatar f tn The doctor says my thyroid hormone levels fluctuates as do my symptoms. My fingernails are the worst and I am so very tired and weak. They are very soft and thin with ridges. I thought the synthyroid was supposed to help with these issues. Am I wrong and is something else going wrong This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/263637'>Fingernails indicative of thyroid problems?</a>.
