Avatar f tn My friend and I were using inhalants last night and did a significant amount of duster. My heart hasn't stopped bothering me since I came down and a few times I've breathed deeply to recieve a stabbing pain in my chest. Should I be concerned and have it checked out, or will it pass ?
Avatar f tn I have been suffereing with a chronic cough for almost 2 years. I have had an ECG,chest x-ray, 2 blood tests, 3 CT scans, a barium swallow,a lung function test,2 bronchocopies a laryngoscopy and lung biopsy. I have been on oral steroids, reflux medication, asthma medication, antibiotics and 2 different nasal inhalants. The only relief I had was from the oral steroid(prednisone) but I was only allowed to stay on that for 5 days at a time. All the tests have revealed nothing out of the ordinary.

Avatar f tn Antibiotics are not prescribed for viral infections. Most likely you will receive an albuterol inhaler for wheezing and be told to rest :) If symptoms persist I would revisit your physician.
Avatar m tn Positive skin or RAST tests help narrow the list of suspected allergens, but don’t often point directly to the cause of symptoms. A challenge test may also be needed esp in food allergies.Blood test like RAST are costlier than the skin tests.Pls discuss with your doctor the options of food elimination and food challenge tests. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn we concerned another doctor.We have done a test of Lung. His lung test was normal as lung's functionality is perfect. so he is not having any lung problem. The doctor has given medicine which does not contain any antibiotic. And now he is ok. If the instant coughing took place then he uses pump. I am thinking of that Asthama test.
Avatar f tn Hello, Eczema is not always caused by allergies. Eczema is often caused by allergies to common natural inhalants and intolerance to some foods.Sometimes it is an overactive response by the body's immune system to a bacterium that normally lives on the skin or an irritant.However , eczema is commonly found in families with a history of other allergies or asthma. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing.Kind regards.
Avatar f tn The good news is that the consensus of medical experts regarding the use of the commonly used inhalants for the control of asthma, inhaled long-acting bronchodilators and inhaled steroids, is that they are safe for both mother and child. However, you should definitely discuss this question with your asthma and pregnancy doctors. Good luck to both of you.
Avatar f tn Extra Strength Tylenol is what my doctor usually recommend for those symptoms . Also for headaches you can try Head On or if you prefer an alternative you can drink 4oz of caffeine like soda iced tea or green tea.
Avatar m tn CT Scan and Barium swallow indicate nothing, tested for stomach acid-nothing, tried steroids, inhalants, asthma meds, Tried a full week w/o bread or dairy-no change. I am 58, and can no longer exercise and now have gained quite a bit of weight but am still active heavy duty gardener. This all started before the weight gain. Been to ENT and lung specialists, they seem to go as far as their profitable tests go then I am on my own again. Thoughts appreciated.
Avatar n tn Hi I am having great difficulty at night after going off of 50 mcg (75mcg 2 x a day) of cytomel for 5 years. I was hospitalized because they thought i might have some aftereffects of the flu (which i also had) but they found nothing. Yet, every single night i have so much trouble breathing. it is as though my blood pressure is falling or that i can't get the pressure for my heart to continue on--so i get up all night long because i just feel so weak that I will expire if i fall asleep.
Avatar f tn My doctor has an assistant, not a nurse, who assists her with checking patient vitals, etc. the assistant makes frequent demands for a urine test...4 in the last 8 months which seem excessive to me. She gets quite testy if I am unable to comply and has left an unpleasant message on my phone once. Today she brought me a full paper cup of water and insisted I drink it. Am I legally required to submit to these tests? Is there a certain number of urine tests required per year?
Avatar n tn MY DAUGHTER WAS VERY FIT UNTIL ABOUT A YEAR AGO , SHE WAS TREATED LAST YEAR FOR ACUTE BRONCHITIC. SHE SPENT THE LAST 3 WEEKS OF 2011 IN THE HOSPITAL . NOW IT HAS JUST STARTED WITH COUGH AS USUAL.. MY WIFE SAID SHE CAN HEAR AT HER BACH WHEN BREATHE.
Avatar f tn You should also be evaluated for presence of concomitant asthma for which medical therapy improves the outcome. I suggest you to consult ENT specialist for reanalysis of your case. Take care and regards.
675923 tn?1296238011 RAST allergy testing can be used to determine IgE reactions to foods and items that are airborne called “inhalants,” such as dust mites, pollen, animal dander and molds. An advantage of the RAST test is that it’s not affected by medications that the patient may be taking.This is not the case in skin ***** or patch test. Variations of the RAST include FAST (fluoro-allergosorbent test) and MAST (multiple antigen simultaneous testing).They can also be used for allergy testing. Hope it helps.
Avatar m tn Good Day Doc, I had a protected sex encounter with a sex worker about 3 weeks ago. At the third day of my exposure, i did an Urine Culture Test for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. Test result is negative. However, these few days i am having some weird tickling feeling on my penis. Sometimes, i can feel some sharp tickling at the tip of my penis, especially when i am walking. But, I do not feel any pain during my urination. My questions are: - Is the urine test on the 3rd day conclusive?
Avatar n tn When they test for M'done in urine (at least on a clinic) they test for it's metabolite (called EDDP for short) & it's ratio to creatinine levels, There is a drug called Bentyl (Dicycloverine) prescribed for IBS that can potentially cause a false positive. There may be others too. It also depends on how good the lab is that is doing the testing. Sometimes there's sloppy work or cross-contamination, particularly in the 'collection' phase. I'd request a retest.
Avatar m tn I've been going to a pain clinic for 2 years,for the last 5 times I have been given a urine tast .I've nothing to hide,but I had to pay 437.00 for the last test.As I am on disability and it is getting expensive.Last time I had to go in for a stimulator check they wanted me to take another urine test.I think that they are ripping me off.
Avatar n tn Im in the UK and it seems the first step is the urine test according to my NHS walk in centre but you can ask for the blood test straight away if your really worried....but I think that depends on any symptoms. Ive heard different opinions on the urine test though, I have been told that its no good by one or two people but then afew others have said its fine for an intial check. Ive had a urine test and it was ok so Im just curious, as it was clear is that it? am I clear for diabetes? thanks.
Avatar f tn They are also looking to see if you may be showing signs of diabetes or dehydration as well.
Avatar f tn Had old 10 mg of opana from script 2 yrs ago left over when switched pain has been pretty bad so I took them in place of my oxycodone for a few days no help. Will they show up on a urine test 5 days after I stopped taking them?
Avatar f tn I would not have a problem doing a drug test, they have never asked, and been for clinical visits and heard them ask other patients for a urine sample, so confused.
Avatar m tn Don't worry about the silly test. If it's a urine test the medications will show up in your urine, especially the methadone. It has a very long half life. Please reconsider the way you are taking your medication and be honest with your self and the doctors. You will be much better off in the short and long run. good luck.
