Avatar f tn I had stroke at the age of 26. Do you know anyone that's happen to? My neurologist a Said they couldn't find any reason this should have happen to me.
Avatar f tn ) as far as your ovarian cancer risk per Se - you may have a greater risk for the development of ovarian cancer than the general population since you have had a breast cancer. You should ask your oncologist if you fall into a higher risk category based on your pathology and your family history. For women who are at increased risk for ovarian cancer, the current recommendation is to consider the prophylactic removal of the ovaries and fallopian tubes.
Avatar m tn 2000 iu/ml), then those with higher HbsAg quantities will have a higher risk. So it is a refinement. Overall, high viral load is still a risk factor.
Avatar n tn The rsik of stroke is higher when in Afib than when not. However, for true statistics, i recommend you look on the american heart association website under their entry for a-fib. Being on blood thinner is the right course of action. Talk to a professional about the true risk differential. Best wishes.
Avatar f tn It sounds like you were given a basic quiz that doctors and therapists use to determine if a person is at risk for depression, or may be experiencing depression. Those are available at just about every doctor's office. You already seem to be getting help for depression, which is great. I don't know that the quiz will have any kind of impact on your treatment, but it doesn't hurt to fill it out honestly and then share it with your practioner.

358455 tn?1277433619 and i havent been able to find it and i forgot who wrote it, but it said something about a site that you could go to and take a quiz to see the % of a chance you may be pregnant? anybody know about this?
689265 tn?1251130087 I haven't tried it. I took the Old Wive's Tale quiz and it said I was having a girl but some of the questions are really silly. Like the pillow to the north or south. My pillow is to the East. How do I answer that question? Can't. And like, the shape of my belly....oh I don't know that one I barely have a belly lol. So I could not take advantage of that quiz even though it is just a quiz. But, I did it just for fun. I'll have to try the Chinese calendar.
Avatar f tn So i took almost all the online quiz. They all say a girl even the chinese chart. Have these quizes actually worked for any one???
Avatar f tn Hi, It would be best to discuss your risk with a doctor. I am assuming that you are asking about testing for early detection of ovarian cancer for yourself and not confirmatory testing for grandma. The first question is whether or not your are indeed at significant risk. Is she the only family member with cancer? Did she also have breast cancer or were both ovaries involved? If there is involvement of both ovaries or a breast cancer history – there are genetic testing available.
Avatar f tn when you had a + hpv result on your pap, did they say if it was high risk or low risk hpv? did you also have an abnormal pap result also? there are over 130 different types of hpv that infect humans. Of those, about 30 or so infect the genital area commonly. Some of them cause obvious warts, some of them infect the cervix on us gals.
Avatar n tn This is because the success with opening it when it has been occluded for some time is very low and the risk of causing a stroke is high The risk of havinga stroke after the blood vessel is blocked is very low.
Avatar f tn I'm a 13 year old girl and I really am starting to believe I have depression. I cry every night over things that happened forever ago and don't even matter anymore. I took a quiz and it said somewhere about 94% positive I was depressed I have also taken a quiz and it said I was bipolar and that I have a mental illness causing me to have multiple personalities.
Avatar f tn I have never heard of that before. I don't honestly see how it could cause a stroke. I know that stroke is the biggest risk of afib.
Avatar m tn for people younger than 65 years with no risk factors the untreated annual risk of stroke is about 1%, whereas with one or more risk factors it is about 5%; for people aged 65-75 years with no risk factors the annual risk of stroke is about 4%, and with one or more risk factors it is about 6% per year; and for people older than 75 years with no risk factors the risk of stroke is about 3%-4%, whereas with one or more risk factors it is about 8% (see Box 2) (E1).7,26 from http://www.mja.com.
623156 tn?1322865851 I'm bored. I was whondering if anyone has tried doing the old wives tales quiz? It's old fashioned ways to see what you are having. I did and 1 told me a boy the rest girl. It's just food for thought! I hope everyone is having a great weekend....
Avatar f tn Risk factors for stroke include advanced age, hypertension (high blood pressure), previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), diabetes, high cholesterol, cigarette smoking, atrial fibrillation, the contraceptive pill, migraine with aura, and thrombophilia (a tendency to thrombosis), patent foramen ovale and several rarer disorders. High blood pressure is the most important modifiable risk factor of stroke.
773214 tn?1295135069 Hey, since I'm just waiting and WAITING for my u/s in 2 weeks to find out the sex of the baby I found this quiz online. It's just for fun...but they predicted boy for me....yikes... Just curious to have you guys try it and we will see if it was right!! Might be fun! Here's the link http://www.parents.
Avatar f tn I'm the same way. I've been breaking out and carry high, and every gender guess quiz says boy but I found out yesterday I'm having a girl.
Avatar f tn Atrial fibrillation is linked to an increased risk of stroke. The most common mechanism is sluggish blood flow in the atria which then leads to the formation of blood clots. These blood clots form in the atria and can migrate from the heart to the brain to cause a stroke. There are five major predictors of stroke in patients with AFib.
Avatar m tn Aspirin or coumadin are for clots, (Antithrombotic and Thrombolytic Therapy), the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) recommended coumadin for atrial fibrillation patients at high risk of stroke, aspirin for patients at low risk of stroke, and either drug of patients with an intermediate risk. The ACCP defines a low-risk patient as younger than 65 years with no predisposing risk factors (e.g., previous stroke, TIA, embolism, heart failure, hypertension, diabetes).
Avatar f tn But if there is a co-existent risk factor for stroke, such as hypertension, small vessel disease, thrombotic arteries or a risk of embolism from somewhere else, the surgery may act as a stress and may bring on the stroke.
