1040373 tn?1273687488 When I saw the urologist two weeks before the IV steroids he discovered I was retaining 400 CC’s (13-ish ounces) of urine without even feeling like it. This week I’m still dealing with leakage. I have it after urinating & wiping when I stand back up, when I sneeze, randomly when I walk, etc. I don't think I'm retaining still - I was urinating almost every hour for a few days last week while my body finally expelled that fluid I retained during IV week.
Avatar f tn He has had urine test and they have asked him for second urine test in red top bottle an midstream urine test. Would they ask for second test if an std was present in first. I took chlamydia test 5 days ago which is negative so I know we don't have that.

Avatar m tn Hook and Dr Handsfield mean when they state that high doses of steroids could effect antibody hiv testing result.
Avatar m tn Though there is some connection between long-term use of steroids and reduced sperm count, I have not heard that taking steroids will cause sterility. The Mayo Clinic site says "Long-term anabolic steroid use can impair sperm production and decrease male fertility." Unfortunately for your situation, "decrease" doesn't mean "erase," and I'd wonder if the guy's steroid use would count as what they mean by "long term" anyway.
Avatar f tn But if you are showing other symptoms of exogenous cushing’s syndrome(due to long term use of steroids)like muscle weakness,striae,depression,anxiety,hirsutism and high BP,then pls get yourself evaluated by an endocrinologist.You may need tests like urine test for cortisol,ACTH levels,fasting blood glucose,serum potassium,saliva test and bone density test.

An MRI showed two hyper intense areas in the anterior portion; one just to the right of center and one to the left. The MRI report stated they could be a cyst or a micro adeoma. The report also stated I have inflammation near the left mastoid. My endocrinologist does not think the pituitary "lesions" are of significance.
Avatar f tn After months and months of testing I just got a high ANA test result. The various antibodies that my doctor tested me for all came back negative. Now he wants to diagnose me with something like "Nonspecific Autoimmune Connective Tissue Disorder". I am suppose to see him in 2 weeks and we will discuss starting some type of steroid treatment. What tests should I ask for before starting the steroids? Any ideas of how to get a more specific diagnosis?
Avatar m tn and everyone reacts differently some have no reaction while others can be permanently ruined for life. I wish there was a test to know beforehand so the docs could know - or steroids had a black box caution or restriction so that they were not given as freely as they are!

751951 tn?1406632863 Since steroids are used primarily to reduce inflammation in a number of diseases it would be hard to narrow down which one just by using the steroids just like the blood test ESR and CRP measure the amount of inflammation in the body but don't give clues as to where it is or what is causing it.
Avatar f tn They are also looking to see if you may be showing signs of diabetes or dehydration as well.
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.
Avatar f tn I took a urine test at the health department and was positive. I'm 8 weeks today and haven't had morning sickness. Only symptoms are tiredness. Is this normal?
Avatar n tn Would a standard urine test show HIV or does it have to be a specific test. Went to the urologist today and he said everything was fine but would it show HIV?
1325672 tn?1290084214 Pain Clinics differ on when and how they do urine drung testing. I think Sherry has had only one urine drug test in many months. My physician does not do any unless she is suspicious. Other PM Clinics test before the narcotic is ordered and then every month. The contract that you may sign or have signed will spell all that out for you. Please read it carefully dear. Don't be afraid to ask the nurse if you if you have questions or ask the physician.
