Hi, There is no great source of information available in Singapore although I can tell you that Rebif will cost you around $7,000 for a 3 month supply or you can now get the new oral medication Gilenya which is taken orally everyday and costs around $130 per pill. No cheap treatments available here! My husband currently sees a Dr. Alvin Seah at Raffles Hospital perhaps if you call them they can give you an idea?
I had an MRI of the brain back in May, to investigate various cognitive / neurological problems I've been experiencing since the start of 2009 (mild confusion, memory problems, muscle twitching, etc). This came back normal (I have neither copies of the scans , nor the radiographers report - just a letter from neurologist saying all findings were normal).
An ultrasound and an uptake scan are different tests.
:o)
Didn't know FNA's were so expensive though...ouch.
There is T2/Flair high signals areas are noted in periventricular region especially involving the left side extending upto corona radiate.
No intra or extra axial focal mass lesion, infarct, midline shift or intracranial hemorrhage seen. The basal ganglia , internal and external capsules, mid brain, pons, medulla cerebellum MRI signal are normal. Pituitary and optic chiasm are unremarkable. The visualized paranasal sinuses are clear.
did they order a follow up with an MRI ? this usually gives a better picture on what it is. I can tell you that most lesions on the liver are hemangiomas which are benign and nothing to worry about.
It's not a cost issue. My doctor doesn't want to send me to MRI nor CT scan. She says that i don't need to do MRI, because CT didn't showed anyting abnormal, and that i am too young for serious disorders. I find this strange, because it was 8 years ago, and i assume that something could changed. Or maybe i'm wrong?
Exposure took place in singapore,i was in a bar,could be considered bar pick ups.The woman that accompanied to hotel,insisted i wore a condom so we bought it one near the hotel,due to my drunkness(Lousy reason) i didnt wore one,eventually.
The woman thought i wore untill a part where she felt i wasnt wearing ,she was shocked and after that we stopped ,
I heard bar picks up are more expensive it cost me 100 bucks for sake for anxiety!
can anyone help me evaluate my stats and risks?
is an MRI or an ultrasound as accurate as a CT scan in determining if the spot on my liver is a hemangioma and not cancerous? Other than cost, is there a reason I should have a CT scan instead of an MRI? I would rather not have the radiation exposure of a CT scan if an MRI will produce adequate data. Furthermore, should I see a specialist instead of my PCP about this?
Thank you!
Hi. My name is Amanda. I'm sending this letter from Indonesia. I have some questions on behalf my Mom dental implant issues.
Please forgive if I'm not writing it right but I do my best to make it simple. I hope you understand, I'll write all her symptom since the implant.
It's been almost 2 years now since the implant. My Mom did her implant in local doctor here in my hometown, Medan, Indonesia.
As the CT scan report was normal and since there was no MRI scan facility in the hospital the patient was not shifted immediately to another one. The doctor of the hospital to which he was later admitted mentioned about the delay. that is why i felt so. Do you think that the CT scan report which mentioned "brain-stem normal" was correct?
Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Tablet and Viread Tablet, are they the same in treatment wise? I went to CVS store, it cost 1000 USD to 30/300mg for Viread Tablet. is it too expensive? The staff there told me generic tablet is not available. But why I see it online as I said earlier?
What happens if I take brand and then switch to generic like a year later? Will the generic medicine do the same?
Thank you.
