hello
my two years old son has an anemia and now is taking ferrous sulfide 3 bottles he took the first bottle already so befor e the 2 blood test due date he had an allergy asme coughing so his taking liquid ventolin albuterol,and ceron for cough and prednisolone orapred, its ben already 4 days and now i can see under his eyes bruises like sometimes reddish sometimes blue and dark specially at nights.
My son has been a Type 1 diabetic for 8 years. He is now 14 years old. It is an on-going battle between the two of us to get him to write down his sugar level and insulin when he checks. He is on a regimen of Lantus and Humalog and basically uses his own discretion when counting carbs and giving insulin. Does anyone have any suggestions on how we can better track his numbers, besides me following him around with a log book? He uses the Accu-Check Instant meter.
I understand your PDT treatment is for acne and nothing to do with psoriasis, however the point to be taken is that photo-sensitivity is a factor in DM to be taken into serious consideration, before making this decision.
Have your dermatologist explain his/her position in detail to give you at least some assurance.
Of course there are no guarantees in the medical field,
so I understand your need for more input on this.
Between December 2002 and October 2005, 189 non-diabetic patients were treated with Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba, of whom five developed type 1 DM (2.6%), three type 2 DM (1.6%) and one an indeterminate type of DM. Classical symptoms of DM were present in three patients who developed DM shortly after cessation of Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba. In the other patients, symptoms of DM were either indistinguishable from side effects caused by Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba or absent.
Is there a time frame to have a lens implant following 2 eye surgeries for a detached retina for the best success or does it not matter?
I am still debating about the lens implant surgery or to just wear a daily contact lens.
I am just trying to gather more information and appreciate any professional insight.

You can call and speak to a nurse or doctor at the hospital or another office that is open. And of course there's always Google. Personally I'm surprised that the doctor said to take DM since it's typically more dangerous. Dextromethorphan (DM) is the chemical that makes you trip (hallucinatory or get a kind of drunk type feeling) if you drink enough and is very commonly abused and can be pretty harmful, so that's why it surprises me so much that they said take that.
I had low sex drive for years. I'm sure higher blood sugars (and the accompanying yeast infections) didn't help matters. I also think because I didn't have regular periods until after my children were born, that may have contributed. Good luck. Things only got better for me in my mid-30's. My only piece of advice is this: think hard before taking any hormones that "boost" sexuality.
I had an adverse reaction to Mucinex DM. In May I had an upper resporitory infection and my doctor prescribed antibiotics and told me to take a decongestant. I bought the Mucinex DM (12 hour time release) and took one pill before bed. I woke up 3:00 am hallucinating big white globs. It was pretty bad and I called the nurse hotline for my insurance. The nurse told me to call poison control. Poison Control told me the "DM" in the medicine was a hallucinagent.
