Reduction

About 5 years ago I noticed a dramatic reduction of the muscle mass (Muscle atrophy) in my right calf muscle, like 75% to 80% reduction compared to my Left calf Muscle (possible the gastrocnemius), I also noticed that my Achilles is also very loose, when in a relaxed state, compared to the left leg. What could be the possible problems? There is no pain (other than uneasiness like restless leg syndrome) associated with this problem. I do have a lower back problem (damage) that was done 30 years ago to the L4/L5 herniated disk. Now I have noticed that other muscles are starting to harden and reduce like the one did 5 years ago. I went on a 15 mile hike in the mountains this past summer and I am very active during the day. However I do not regularly exercise as I should. Thoughts?

Many endocrine disorders can also cause myopathy such as thyroid , parathyroid , adrenal disorders , Diabetes , Vitamin - D deficiency etc. You need to go to your nearest doctor for clinical assessment . Moreover other blood ...

I am detected with PCODs after 7 months of my marriage. I am now 26years old and got married 1.4 years ago. I am unable to conceive due to PCODs as per my gynocologist. She firstly prescribed me 1.CYSTA Rx, 2. forte tablets, with weight reduction suggestion. after 3 months in USG i got free from PCODs and i was prescribed 1.Duphaston 10mg tablets, 2. follic acid tab and calcium tab, after 2 months again I missed my periods and detected with PCODs again. Doctor prescribed 1.MYOCYST, 2.OSTOCALCIUM TAB but my periods delayed more than 2 months. Now as per my doctor, I am overweight and cant conceive till reducing weight fom 63kg to 55 minimum. Now she again prescribed me 1.cysta rx , 2. metformin for 3 months this time but i have not started this medicine because i have no patience o again again the same medicines to cure this regenerated type PCODs.I have also started workout for my weight loose. Kindly suggest me whether my doctor was suggested me right medicine or not, what is right for me, can i conceive in these PCODs (3mm to 7mm),

Hi there. I agree with the medicines that your doctor gave you. Unfortunately, once you have PCOD, you already have PCOD for life. But it doesnâ€™t mean that you canâ€™t get pregnant. Just follow your doctorâ€™s advice and you have to be patient. Pregnancy seldomly comes after just one cycle of treatment. ...

My is an IUGR baby from 8th month and had growth reduction in her abdominal area but she is a term baby and weighed 2.3kg and was not even admitted to nicu as she was healthy.she has latching problems and her weight became less after satisfied discharge from hospital and then i began formula nd pumped my milk as well.weight increased normaly and was healthy for her first checkup too.two days back after not giving breastmilk for 3 weeks as my milk was drained but i pumped out milk,which was very thick and fed her.she is having loose motions and found few blood stains.motion routine was done and appeared to have 40-50 pus cells, RBC 10-15 and Occult blood was present with greenish yellow loose motion.and she was given antibiotic drops and motion routine was done again and the pus cells have reduced to 15-20 and the rbc is Nil! Does rbc nill means there is no occult blood too? Moreover my baby was hungry and cried every hour and i fed her too.but now she is fed only after 2 hours and seems to be fine.is this overfeeding the reason or was it my thick stored breast milk? She is two months yesterday!

HI first of all your baby is doing fine so you dont need to worry . 2nd it was just because of infection which she got not because of milk or overfeeding ...theres no thumb rule that you should feed after 2 hr ...ideal is to have demand feed means if baby cries you should feed but gap between 2 feeds should not be more than 3-4 hr otherwise baby may become hypoglycemic...no rbc means theres no bleed ...
