I need expert opinion regarding "hyperventilation syndrome cause back pain" ...

Hi, What I think you want to ask is that you feel uncomfortable and have difficulty in breathing after 2 hours of intake of food. The cause for this, because you are so specifically asking just after food, is that it can be simply gastritis due to gaseous distension of abdomen . You might have a little bloating and burping sensation while it can have multiple cause for which I would need at least your age,weight,height and also about your smoking and alcohol habits. You can try out with some s ...

My father is 78 years old and has been suffering from constipation for the last 2 years. He has also lost a lot of weight around 10 kgs in this time span. In the last couple of months he has been complaining that his abdominal muscles have torn due to bowel straining and now he says there is loss of muscle in his stomach area. Which is why when he lies down everything is fine but when he sits up and walks around he feels like he is carrying a weight in his stomach. After intake of food it becomes worse and he also gets bloating. We have done all possible tests - colonoscopy, CT scan, ultrasound sometime last year and everything was clear. The doctors gave a verdict of idiopathic constipation and left it at that. His blood work is fine, haemoglobin levels, cholestrol etc. He still suffers from constipation. His prostrate is enlarged but results are fine. What is the solution to his stomach muscle problem ? Is it lack of exercise, lack of protein ? He doesnt have a pot belly and has never had and had always been physically active and fairly slender.

Hi, History told by you favours irritable bowel syndrome ( IBS ). There are two alarming signs in your case : Firstly, loss of weight and that to10kg approx. Secondly, sensation of carrying a weight in stomach. Both of them do occurs in IBS. But to be on safer side,I would suggest you to go for colonoscopy again because it was done 1 yr back and symptoms have aggravated few months back. Treatments available for IBS - - Increase the level of physical activity. - Have regular meals and take t ...

I have had yellow mucus bowel movements and now have stool covered in a white film. what does this mean?

Hi, You have asked about mucus in stool.Mucus in stool can appear in increased amount as a result of some infections like amoebiasis, giardiasis, bacterial infections and some non infectious conditions which in short may be clubbed into an illness called irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease or anal fissure. Since you had been having yellow mucus earlier and now it is white film covering,it appears to be white mucus film only. So if you are having it on a regular basis, it ...

I have had amenerhea after the pill and had not had a period since last April (9 months ago). My OB put me on progesterone to induce withdrawal bleed and is likely going to diagnose PCOS. She is supposed to call today but first labs showed a Fsh:lh of over 3:1 so it looks like PCOS. I am having a very painful withdrawal bleed on this progesterone. Started with right side pain, constant ache in pelvic region now, and pain during bowel movements/urination? Does this sound normal for a progesterone withdrawal bleed?

Hi, Small cyst rupturing does not cause pain usually and since you are better with nsaids, you don't need to do anything and may continue with nsaids. But haemorrhagic cyst are painful(extreme degree) and if your pain is not relieved by nsaids or you think pain is aggravating or it may be unbearable,it will be advisable to go for an ultrasound abdomen to rule out any kind of haemorrhage. Feel free to ask more questions. ...

I have normal bowel movements but constant green stools

Hi, Usually green stools indicate that you food is being digested a little faster than it should actually get digested. The cause could be the use of laxative or an antibiotic. If you have this on a regular basis,you have to take care about it and take it seriously because your body is lacking essential nutrients,or if it is just for two days as you mentioned then you don't need to worry. The commonest cause is intestinal infection for which an antibiotic like a ofloxacin,ornidazole,refixime( ...

I have had virus symptoms since Sat...and the worse is an arm and neck twitching that started Sunday night. Today it is so bad I look like I have terrets or parkinson's syndrome. I have a low grade fever of 101.3 and a bad earache.

Hi, The symptoms does not seem to be of viral infection, however it might have started as a viral infection but none of the symptoms match a viral infection and even 101 fever is not mild. You probably had some URTI (upper respiratory tract infection),which now probably has involved a bigger area and even might have also converted to a bacterial infection. Precautions to be taken - Have plenty of water(fluids non colas) - Avoid spicy food - You can have ice cream but not too much - Remain ...

GERD. It has been on and off since 2008. The condition worsened last month in Jan 2013 and I could hardly swallow any solid food. It just gets stuck in the throat and feel like I am choking till I push the food down with water. Liquids and semi solid foods are ok. The doctors did Nasal Endoscopy, Normal Gastro Endoscopy, Esopheagal Manometry, Barium Swallow X-Ray and all tests came up normal. I was told the swallowing problem is primarily related to GERD and I was advised Cintapro 1 mg tablet for 1 month. So far as I take the tablet, I am able to take in selected solid foods fine, but not all foods. If I do not take this tablet for one day, the problem recurrs back. Question 1: How long will this motility disorder be related to GERD ? Question 2: Are there any side effects of taking this Cintapro 1 mg to help in motility on a long term basis (Say if I need to take this for some more time) Questionj 3: Are there any other tests that will show the proper reason for this motility disorder of the esophaegus (Apart from Esopheagal Manometry, Gastro Endoscopy, Barium Swallow X-Ray) etc.

GERD will persist but the effect can be decreased by life style modification like good brisk walk for 40 mins, avoiding fat, consuming more curd and buttermilk rather than milk and keeping a gap of 2 hrs between food and sleep. Cintpro is by and large relatively safe drug for long term use till now. We need to see the reports of existing tests before we proceed with further tests Stress has significant role in symptoms so please be relaxed. ...

Hi, You have written about multiple problems.Let us talk one by one. Regarding MRI whole body scan -it may cost approximately 10,000-15000/-rupees. Your upset stomach appears to be either a chronic bacterial or parasitic infection,which should respond well with adequate hygenic measures and short course of medication.Stress often known or hidden contributes in causing or worsening such symptoms. Aches and pains could be reflexion of an inadequately treated injury or associated anemia,vitami ...

Hi, Yes you can get pregnant by a very less amount of penile secretion also which many people don't even notice the secretions are so less.Even if penis is not fully inserted and only tip is there inside the vagina even then you can get pregnant and you did mention about some secretion coming out of penis which he cleaned in the end so you can't take a risk and it is good that you have taken an emergency contraceptive,i hope with in 72 hours. It is not necessary that if the drug had mentioned ...
