CT Scan Showed I Had Mild Prostatitis
In short, I (27) was diagnosed with bladder neck stenosis and underwent BNI surgery 4 months ago. I was unable to pee at all. My urinary symptoms are much improved and although my flow rate is still on the low side (15ml/sec), I can fully empty my bladder.
I was in the hospital for a week before doctors diagnosed the reason for my urinary retention. A CT scan showed I had mild prostatitis.
Now I feel I have recovered somewhat but about 2.5 weeks ago, pain associated with prostatitis returned. I went to a Urologist who told me to get a few tests done: CBC, Urine DR, bladder PVR and uroflowmetry. He also prescribed 10 days of antibiotics. The tests seem to be normal with the exception of 4-6 pus cells in my urine. I have not returned to the doctor since.
The pain went away in about a week but has returned. No fever, just a mild constant pain in by upper buttocks area which gets better in the morning. I also have occasional burning pain between my scrotum and anus. My penis feels sore as if I just ejaculated. Occasionally there is sharp pain in the shaft of my penis. I am also experiencing frequent nocturnal emissions. My libido is almost non-existent but when I try I am able to achieve a decent erection.
I have had these symptoms on and off for a few years but although annoying, I did nothing. My GP just tells me to take painkillers. I have read about the kinds of prostatitis and nobody has been able to tell me what exactly is wrong. I have taken 4 rounds of antibiotics (7-10 days) in the last 4 months. It may be of bacterial origin; I was diagnosed with epididymitis 6 months ago with prostatitis symptoms and it cleared up with Cipro.

View 1 RepliesCan You See Follicles If You Are Pregnant?
Can you see follicles if you are pregnant? I had a transvaginal ultrasound scan last week and the doctor found many follicles surrounding a dominant one. He said it could be polycystic ovary syndrome but we did not have further blood tests to confirm the case. He also said the lining was getting thicker as ovulation may occur. I later requested the nurse for a pregnancy test and she declined saying I already had an ultrasound. Does having follicles mean I definitely am not pregnant? (the scan was 3 weeks after protected sex, with correct usage of condoms) So none of those follicles could be corpus luteum? Am I 100% safe? Lately I have been getting diarrhoea for no reasons except maybe anxiety or if unlucky an early pregnancy sign. Am I being overly paranoid?
View 1 RepliesX-ray Showed An Enlarged Heart
Tonight I went to the urgent care clinic because my asthma was really acting up, doctor thought it may be pneumonia, so he had my chest x-rayed. They found that I don't have pneumonia, but they did notice that my heart was enlarged. I now have an appointment with my regular doctor on Tuesday who will probably send me to a cardiologist for tests. I am 28 years old, trying to lose weight, and I am afraid I am going to die young. I can't shake the anxiety off. I am freaked out that doing any slight exercise is going to send me into cardiac arrest. I didn't mention the findings to my husband because I don't want him to be worried if it is nothing. I am just really scared and I don't know what to do or what to expect.

View 2 RepliesAmitriptyline :: Showed The Symptoms Of A Mini Stroke?
Hallo - my husband was taken into hospital a few days ago with a ?heart attack - but that (thank God) was not proven. They said it could be angina. But the next day after having been given Amitriptyline he showed the symptoms of a mini stroke and I couldn't understand what he was saying because of slurred speech. The GP (when he was discharged) said it was highly unlikely to be a stroke and he blamed this drug - as did all the hospital doctors.
This is very odd to me and can I ask whether it could be true? He hadn't been on the drug prior to admission, so I don't know why on earth they gave it to him in hospital.
Cardiovascular :: Xray Showed A Enlarged Heart
I was told by my GP yesterday that I may have Heart Failure due to the results from my xray showing I have a enlarged heart. She sent me today to have a load of blood tests one being the BNP,NT-pro. I am really scared as my sister died of a heart attack last November without warning. But I am really annoyed has she had the results from the x ray since the 1/4/15 and I only could find out on the 16/4/15..Has anybody found out this way before and what is the prognosis I get everyone is different. But in general.
View 18 RepliesGallbladder :: HIDA Showed A 35 % Ejection Rate But Symptoms Remain
I was in the hospital about 4 weeks ago with pancreatitis (I'm not a drinker) and was told it was probably due to my gallbladder. CT scan and ultrasound didn't find any stones or sludge, but my gallbladder wall was thickened. I also have a 9mm enlarged common bile duct. I have had numerous attacks over the couple of years, so my gastro dr. ordered a HIDA scan. Showed a 35 % ejection rate and he doesn't think there's a problem with my gallbladder, but did agree to get me into the surgeon I requested for a second opinion. My mother also had a gallstone that blocked a bile due causing jaundice and had to have her gallbladder removed. He did put me on Creon DR 24000, a pancreatic enzyme today to see if it helps until I see the surgeon.
I have lost over 15 lbs. in the last 4 weeks because I can't eat very much and have no appetite and stay nauseated 90% of the time. I've been on a bland diet during this time as well. I have a constant dull pain under my ribcage that tends to radiate around my back and right shoulder.
I'm very frustrated right now and would appreciate any input from others who might have faced the same diagnosis.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome :: Doxepin Showed To Help In A Clinical Trial
When I was first diagnosed with CFS/ME, my specialist at UCLA prescribed doxepin, a tricyclic antidepressant. The target dosage was 40 mg, and I was able to tolerate 37 1/2 mg. I started out on a very low dosage, emptying out most of a capsule, and very gradually ramped up. I started feeling better almost immediately. I mean, way better. My doctor said doxepin was shown to help CFS/ME in a clinical trial. Just another treatment to consider...
