I am wondering if I am still able to carry the baby or it’ll be a risk for either of us..
Yes I just tested positive for H pylori and yes I am asking my doctor this week their opinion. I am posted this for mature answers only

I asked this question before but now I have details.
I talked to the fed Dr and he stated that the ONLY reason why I was denied Employment is b/c I have a perscription for Indocin. There are NO side effects, in fact the only reason why my doctor gave it to me is so I don’t have to buy advil OTC (the same thing!).
So if I didn’t accept the script, I would have had a job.
THe reason for using the med is b/c I was diagnosed with ankolosing spondilitis, a form of arthritis but seriously, I am doing great, no pain, no limited ROM. It is just that I carry a gene and a certain blood test that stated I have this. It’s a fairly new disease and there are a lot of treatments so I’m not understanding.
I even had another exam by my rhumatologist who states that I am very healthy and able to perform anything they require (there was a list she had to go through)
Then I went to my general Dr. and she said the same. In fact, they are both really confused on this!
Any advice? How frustrating
I was assuming it was the arthritis, I wasn’t sure.
Now that I tak]lked to the fed Dr. personally just yesterday, he stated that it’s the med.
Further, he said that if I have that med, I must have pain which is not the case.
sorry for the confusion
Also, I have been examed by their dr. as well as 2 of mine.

What are the patients’ rights and is this considered ACCEPTABLE?
I have a torn meniscus, loose cartilage, and bone spurs along with arthritis in my knee and was scheduled for arthroscopic knee surgery.

I had (PAT) Pre-Admission Testing the day before and insisted on meeting the anesthesiologist and discuss the treatment plan – I have a very bad case of emetophobia and get panic attacks and get claustrophobic. So the Doctor who is the head of the department met with me and agreed to the plan similar to what has worked in three of my oral/gum surgeries – 3 ativan tranquilizers and local pain med/injections. So the Chief agrees the the ativan and say sure he’ll do a spinal and I should be out of recovery in about an hour.

Yesterday, day of the surgery,when I get checked in I see the Chief anesthesiologist and confirm the plan. About an hour later “some guy” walks up claiming to be the anesthesia doctor – I tell him no DR. x the chief is doing my operation and he says no he is. Then he says he is useing “light anesthesia” I say NO I had Ativan and and supposed to get a spinal and before I finish my sentence I am out until I half wake 3.5 hours later and get out of recovery a total of.5 hours later – no spinal.

Today I find ot he is NOT even a doctor and LIED saying I ageed to this (Of couse the first I saw him is when he lies about who the chief is and I’ve had a total of 4 ativans and am injected when I dispute his comment.
To add the first person I spoke with since said she was a patient advocate and then passed the buck. I darn near had a stoke arguing that had a right to know what he shot me up with and then my parents getting on me saying that I am ungrateful tbe I survived “unscathed” . But they are adamant that they’s want to be “under” (with a general) and get p.o.’d when I ask how they would feel if their doctors knew that and agreed but then WOKE THEM up right in time for the cutting.

I am grateful I came out ok – but I was in recovery 400% LONGER than what I was told the worst case scenario would be. And no apologies, just a bunch of lies! -
Oye, my bad typing.. Thank you for the answers.

I wanted to use Ativan, because it has worked well in 3 (extreme) gum surgeries, when I was relaxed, could respond to directions, but didn’t remember the fact that they cut my mouth and had to grind bone. I didn’t expect it to be a way to enable them to abuse my wishes.

Thanks for the advice.

the endo was all happy about how easy and cheap treatment would be, but i feel like i need to be in the hospital! heart racing, hot then cold, light headed, nausea, weepy, weak, out of breath. is that normal for “a little” overactive thyroid? my thyroid is enlarged too. i stopped taking Enbrel for psoriasis and arthritis 2 mos ago, and wonder if that triggered this. how long before the Tapazole makes this better? i need to teach high school like a normal person and feel like i’m losing it! please no bible quotes..i’m freaking out here and need some real answers. thanks.

She usually jumps up on beds and has trouble getting down because there are wooden floors. Usually she hurts herself. We’ve ruled out arthritis because that comes gradually, and this just started today. So could this be from her jumping off beds onto slippery floors and hurting herself or something else?

My dr said its nothing to worry about, but I am worrying… I know anyone can get it, but it’s something that gets worse as you get older right? Since I have it so young how bad is it going to be when i’m 30 or 40? Is there anything I can do to slow it down or prevent it from getting worse???

There’s nothing whatever the matter with me…
I’m just as healthy as can be.
I have arthritis in both of my knees,
And when I talk,I talk with a wheeze.
My pulse is weak and my blood is thin,
But I’m awfully well for the shape I’m in!

My teeth eventually have to come out,
And my diet I hate to think about.
I’m overweight and I can’t get thin,
But I’m awfully well for the shape I’m in.

Arch supports I have for my feet,
Or I wouldn’t be able to walk on the street.
Sleep is denied me every night,
And every morning I’m a sight.
My memory is failing,my head’s in a spin,
I’m practically living on aspirin,
But I’m awfully well for the shape I’m in.

The moral is as this tale unfold,
That for you and me who are growing old;
It’s better to say,”I’m fine” with a grin,
Then to let them know the shape we’re in.

How do I know my youth has been spent?
Because my get-up-and go has got-up-and-went!
But in spite of all that-I’m able to grin,
When I think of where my get-up-and-go has been.

Old age is “Golden” I’ve heard it said,
But sometimes I wonder as I go to bed-
My ears in a drawer,my teeth in a cup,
My eyes on the table until I get up…

‘Ere sleep dims my eyes as I say to myself,
“Self,is there anything else I should lay on the shelf?”
But I’m happy to say as I close my eyes,
My friends are the same as days gone by.

When I was young my slippers were red,
I could kick my heels straight over my head.
When I grew older,my slippers were blue,
But I still could kick/dance the whole night through.

Now I’m old,my slippers are black;
I walk to the corner and puff my way back.
The reason I know my youth has been spent,
But I really don’t mind when I think with a grin,
Of all the places my get-up has been!

I’ve taken her to two vets today. One said she was “faking,” another said it was just arthritis. I can’t imagine arthritis shows up overnight in a two year old dog.

She is generally anxious. Afraid of leashes, men, property lines, doorways, etc. She acts like a big puppy all of the time except for yesterday and today.

She is generally an outside dog by choice, but lately after a lot of storms she became incredibly afraid of the night and has to be brought in more often (it used to be she would refuse to come inside at night).
Last night I sent her out to potty, she didn’t want to and laid down next to the door to wait for me. That’s not like her, but I thought maybe she was calming down.
This morning she was let out at about 6am and I woke up at 10am to feed her and the other. I noticed she wasn’t jumping on me like she usually does, wasn’t following me, wasn’t even getting up. I thought maybe it was just hot and put some ice in her water bowl and filled it up.
Within an hour, I went back outside to check on her again and this time I noticed she was having a difficult time getting up and walking. When I asked her to ’sit’ she would stop and slowly lay her bottom down, unlike the quick response I usually get. She showed a limp and I immediately became concerned.

Two vets can’t tell me anything. I’m not sure what to ASK at another office about what it could be or what she should be tested for, because going on this they “think” it’s just arthritis, but didn’t tell me anything else.
My regular vet has five different doctors. The one I trusted is retired now and his children took over. The other vet I took her to was the last one in town with a good reputation. No blood work was drawn, and there are no cuts.
