Avatar f tn Your cough could come from your medication you are taking,side effects. Look up what kind of side effects could come your medication or drug interaction. Lisonopril does it for me and my freind. Good luck.
Avatar m tn I think you should give your cat a few days at least before putting him down. I've heard of cats coming around after these effects after a week. Please, don't put him down yet. Be patient and give him some time. It is a good sign that he is eating!!
1613327 tn?1298393489 My sugeron told me to stay on the Coumadin therapy as it would be easier to treat the bleeding than if I had a stroke during the proceedure.....I have atral fribulation (intermittent).....is this safe to do this surgery while on coumadin???? Seems the bleeding risk is greater than the stroke risk......I also have high BP....
Avatar m tn I have some side effects too from Beta Blockers, but these too are minor, unless I feel I have go get back to long distance running (a past exercise) or other hard physical work. Would I like to be able to do those things again, yes, but I'm happy to live without them if my condition and medication side-effects make it necessary. Would I like to see a perfect fix, make my heart work like I was 20, or even 50 YO again,, yep, but that hasn't happened yet to my knowledge.
Avatar n tn My son had minor stroke last year. Since the stroke he has been a lot abdominal pain. He had blood work, ultrasound work and x rays and could not find anything. This has been ongoing for about six months. Finally he had a seizure on April and admitted at hospital. After further tests, the neurologist said he had abdominal epilepsy. He had been taking keppra, depokate and resipdral but still he is having abdominal pain at least once a day. Any thoughts?
Avatar n tn Thank you for your response. After having regular minor(I think it was minor as I do have little knowledge about medical terminology) strokes we admitted him in hospital. He was there for a week and his pain is gone now. However doctor did not recommend to do anything major treatment.
Avatar m tn As my DD is in Keppra, and has previously been on other seizure meds, the Keppra, by far has had the least amount of side-effects. You could ask if some of her mood changes, memory loss, etc. are from the stroke vs. the Keppra. Please do not wean her off the medication without a Dr's directive... that could cause withdrawal seizures. My thoughts are with you that your mother gets well soon.

Avatar n tn Twelve days ago my 15 year old cat had a convulsion, her vet said she had a stroke. She went blind. He prescribed her microsolone and candilat. She is still blind. Do you thonk she can recover at least some eyesight? Her vet said her right eye was bleeding internally, a little. Do I continue with the corticoid in spite of this bleeding?
Avatar n tn It sounds like you could have had a minor stroke or are real close. Not trying to scare you, but you have the symptoms starting.
Avatar f tn The blood from the vein leaked into her brain and tirggered the stroke. I was wondering if anybody knows just how serious the after effects of this are. Her speech is slurred right now and she is wobbly on her legs but she seems to be quite lucid at times. It just happened on monday and its wednesday now. I am just wondering what to do in order to support her and to help her. Also for myself to know what to expect. She is 31 yrs old and I know she will suffer the psychological trauma of this.

Avatar n tn Aspirin also helps prevent a second or recurrent stroke and, as with heart attacks, lessens the damaging effects of a stroke that does occur.
Avatar f tn Is this type pain nornal after a stroke? What can I do about the pain and swelling. My leg feels cold and I can't stand for even my cat to rub on my leg. I also have RA is this making the stroke pain? I am so tired of this pain, I am losing it.
Avatar f tn Hi auntsissi , I am really sorry to hear about your father’s condition .Itching could occur after stroke if the stroke is in the thalamus area of the brain which receives the sensory information of pain , touch , temperature , pressure and other sensations from all over the body . The onset may be from days to weeks after the stroke . Topical therapy with moisturizers and emollients helps alleviate the itching . Treatment with amitriptylene 50 mg a day results in resolution of the itching .
2030194 tn?1329190785 Or has this been going on since your stroke last year? When you say a minor stroke, like a TIA? That means you have a 1/3 chance of a full stroke in the near future. And if you had a moderate eschemic stroke, you still have a fairly high chance of having another stroke. Strokes are nothing to fool around with.
Avatar n tn I had a minor stroke in my cerebellum eight weeks ago. I had the numbness and tingling until two weeks ago. The whole left side on my face, arms, legs, and feet almost felt as bad as when I went to the ER the first time. I went to ER again a week after the stroke for a bad headache.(which I had severely with my stroke) But, they treated for a headache. I have had Carpal Tunnel ruled out for the tingling of hand. Anyway, I am not a Dr. this is just what happened with me.
Avatar f tn I have been searching for information on the web about hair loss after a stroke. I had a subarachnoid hemorrhagic stroke from a brain aneurysm in January of 2010. I had an endovascular coiling treatment to stop the bleeding, and I have since had a repeat coiling procedure (in April) when it reopened.
Avatar n tn My husband had a TIA about a month ago, he had no residual effects. I have noticed that since then he is very distant and aloof with me, which is not normal at all for him. Does this go away?
Avatar f tn There is a school of thought that if infection from dental work gets into the bloodstream, a person can wind up with a minor stroke, which one of the symptoms is your one-sided numbness. However, you can get physical therapy where you can regain normal use of the side affected. I do not know if antibiotics given at dental clinic prevents this chance of minor stroke thing or not, but I wish I did know.
