Avatar f tn Although the combination of calcium plus vitamin D has only been shown to reduce fracture in a nursing home population, it is recommended that all people with osteoporosis initially be advised to take these dietary supplements. The benefits of additional calcium and vitamin D are highlighted with caregivers for people with osteoporosis residing in nursing facilities. Treatment is generally given twice daily with meals to optimize absorption.
Avatar f tn Thank you for your response . I have had a total hysterectomy also so I basically have no hormones. Do you have any ideas of what I can use for hot flash relief and foggy brain.
Avatar n tn Dont think of the way od Hysterectomy at this stage , try to get some more help, we have a hysterectomy forum here on MH with a very good and kind Cl .called.Cherie ....
Avatar f tn I understand that smoking is extremely addictive, but there are certain things we do for our kid that are very hard, and one of them is being pregnant, taking care of our bodies while pregnant and nursing (and I am not even talking about giving birth!). That is only the start of a difficult life of a parent. So, let me give you the facts that you probably already know, but they are important to repeat.
Avatar f tn development and validation of a Chiari-/syringomyelia-specific questionnaire Published by the Journal of Neuroscience Nursing (by Mueller and Oro - Neurosurgery Center of Colorado) - appears in the August 2013 edition Wish I had access to this. Perhaps some of you out there can access this, and if so, enjoy! :) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.
Avatar f tn I had 2 surgeries 2 years ago, and the last was a horizontal cut hysterectomy. My muscles in my stomach are still not mended, and my colon was scarred during one surgery. So, I cannot enjoy my usual presurgery workouts. I was in the military for 11 years, so having this new pouch in my stomach is new for me. I'm already a vegetarian, don't eat sugar often, but I cannot get the weight off. As a matter of fact, it goes up and down all of the time. Has anyone else been in this situation?
Avatar n tn After recommended to a Gyn specialist, after the appointment, I was suddenly scheduled for a complete hysterectomy a couple weeks ago. No biopsy was performed on my ovaries. Biospy of the uterus proved benign. I'm 48 and though I know menopause draws near, I'm not sure if this is the right decision as heart disease and bone demineralization (osteoporosis) runs in my family. Keeping the ovaries is risky, but having another 4 or 5 years of natural hormone production could be a plus.
Avatar f tn She had a full hysterectomy. The cancers was not in the lymph nodes but in the omentum which was removed, on liver, rectum/colon, both ovaries and appendix which all were removed. The surgeon scraped off the colon and did not need to remove anything there. SHe underwent IV chemo (6 rounds) w/toxil and carboplatin (might be misspelled) and they found her CA-125 numbers shooting up so they began IP and IV using Toxil and Cisplatin.
Avatar f tn Interventions lead to more interventions, epidurals increase the chances of needing an emergency c-sections, I would never judge a woman for getting one of they feel it's best for them if they can't cope, but I don't understand why a woman would go into labour with the idea of getting one...
Avatar n tn I am 46, and have stage 1C ovarian cancer. I had a staging and hysterectomy on 11/18, and started chemotherapy on 12/23. I am on round three of chemotherapy (carboplatinum and taxol). I take OxyContin for pain, and Xanax for anxiety. The Oxycontin is for severe muscle aches in my legs and arms in the 3-5 days following chemotherapy, and i take it periodicallly in very small dosages (.05 a day) in the second week for pain. I am also on estrodil .05.
Avatar f tn If you are speaking to before the mense, you do have more blood then, including the lining, but when you shed the blood, it is not uncommon for those menstruating to wind up becoming iron deficient, which can aggravate tachycardia. I noticed (prior to complete hysterectomy) more migraine activity around the time of month and don't recall any improvement with my P.O.T.S.. Do you retain a lot of fluid like some women do in relationship to their period?
Avatar f tn Text book symptoms for ovarian cyst, ovarian cancer, and endometriosis. I did an ultrasound and my GYN suggested a hysterectomy beings my tubes were tied and my cycle was so debilitating. She also suggested a CA-125 which was 495 and cancelled my surgery and referred me to a GYN-ONC. Now I am waiting.... She suggests that it is an ovarian hemorrhagic cyst, endometrioma, or endometriosis that is causing this issue.
Avatar m tn If you and your gf are having problems with lube because of her hysterectomy (I had a hysterectomy too, and have that problem), just get some lube. It will help it feel better for you both. And it can be fun to play with. ;) But wait until your symptoms are gone before you have sex.
Avatar f tn Not sure what to do, I am fifty, perimenopausal, Dr says I have complex ovarian cysts and endometriosis, (also two types of bladder problems going on) Dr says that I also tested positive for the MTHFR gene which makes me high risk for not surviving a hysterectomy, says if I do survive, I would have to go to a nursing care facility, also told me that she cannot say that I do not have ovarian cancer, ca-125 was normal, she says I have alot going on, put me on pill for bladder, wants me to start in
Avatar f tn Yes Doctor,Thats my ankle.I'm 5 ft 7 inches,female.My weight is 75 kgs now because of my kidney transplant,having steroids and immuno suppressing drugs. But my ideal weight is 65 kgs.I had a kidney transplant 1.9 yrs back.As of now I'm not having any tablets for my ankle.My pain is little better because of the "orthotic arch support footwear " and moving a tennis ball up and down under my feet as an exercise.I DONT want to take injections.
Avatar m tn I had a pap done a cpl months ago and got the call that my pap was abnormal with ASCUS high grade with NEGATIVE HPV. I am new to all of this never before have I had an abnormal pap, and I never heard of HPV so it freaked me out. I'm 28 with 2 children and have ONLY slept with my husband(I knew there was no way I had HPV)! My Dr. recommended I have the colopscopy which they took a biopsy.
Avatar f tn Your main concern was the interventions. There are all kind of interventions. And yes, the wrong ones could hurt rather than help. So a few questions. What grade is he in. What time of day does the school get out? Are the interventions done by his classroom teacher - or by somebody else, somewhere else? How does his teacher feel about the interventions? Are the interventions a part of a BIP, an IEP, or a 504?
53186 tn?1225749549 I haven't been here alot, I'm Shannon from Washington, so I hope a few of you remember me. I'm the one who's Mom passed away last Feb and I was too ill to travel and missed her funeral. I thought that would be the low point of my tx (now on week 29) but noooooooooooooooooo A week ago Sunday night, Gary and I went to bed, I woke up at 2am to pee and the next thing I knew I was laying out in the middle of my bedroom floor having broken my hip! OMG.......
Avatar f tn They are not trained in natural birth but in augmenting labor (causing labor to go as they want it to go) which often results in a cascade of interventions that cause the mother and baby serious complications. Which is often why many women say, "Why write a birth plan? It will never go as you plan". I'm excited to share more on birth plans very, very shortly! 2).
