Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available

Darkroll. Unlikely to get a toilet disease using public toilet!! My advice is see your general practitioner to examine you properly before you start using any creams

Dr . B , am atcually afraid now .
if i was in Nigeria would have been easy to go see a doctor , but here in seycheles its hard,

can prescribe for me

I never knew we have someone like u on nairaland, just coming across this today. I will like to ask u a question. I was drinking a very cold drink sometimes ago and suddenly i felt a sharp pain in my left chest, it is an inner pain in my chest, so i visited a uch Ibadan and they conducted a series of test including an x-ray and this is the report of the x-ray, "patient is rotated. However, the heart is normal in size and contour. No focal lung lesion seen.(the relative transradiancy of the left lung field is due to the aforementioned rotaion." and this is the drugs prescription, swidon 5mg, lexotan 3mg, diclofenac and co-proxamol tab. plz i need your advise.

@ any gyneacologist in d house,

a friend of mine got married early this year
and she's been wondering why she's not pregnant yet,
a doc prescribed chlomide 500g for her but nothing has happened
please can u advise me on what to tell her? thanks.

Thanks naijaking 1. I am hoping more docs will help out. Crazyp, getting pregnant is not a simple thing. The drug your friend is on is Clomifene(Clomid) It is used in cases of infertility. If your friend has been trying for less than a year, I think patience is what she needs, not drugs. Did she have any investigations before being put on the tablets. Had she been on contraceptives in the past. The body takes time to readjust to numerous insults we subject it to.
Thanks for your support larriederm

Dr Balogun and other docs in the house.
I have a friend who is planning for a baby in about a year or two.
She really doesnt want to do the whole pregnancy thing over and over and over again so she plans to take fertility drugs in hopes that it will result in a multiple pregnancy. (Twins or triplets maybe!) She already talked to her doctor about it and was told that she really doesnt need any fertility aid as she already has one kid. She was told it may be illegal even.
Seriously she's hell bent on doing this. She's already shopping for fertility drugs online incase her doctor refuses to prescribe them. She knows the dangers of taking unprescribed drugs. trust me she is well aware.she also knows that there's a possibility she may have a singleton anyway but she still wants to try . she's obsessed with knocking it out in one shot!  She also got very excited because another friend did the same thing and got a set of twins. (two for the work of one!)

anything i can say to her to discourage her?

Thanx

Vipico, s aureus from semen. That is new to me! If it is from blood, you would probably be too ill. Maybe it is contamination from skin.
mdsocks, your brother might have an abscess recurring. Antibiotics will not work for that. Might need incision and drainage

Dr Balogun,
Thank you very much for all your advice and professional answers to all the questions.
We need more Nigerians like you.
May God continue to give you wisdom, divine health and favour in all your ways.

Once again, thank you.

i want to find out if it is possible that u feel u are pregnant but i went to the hospital and they said is negative and i have not seen my period this month and is far over due.

Thanks to all Dr(s) in the house.
Could you advise me on which way to go please.
I have been diagnosed of Non Obstructive Azoospermia, I did FSH test and all the tests there in , all came out fine but the cause of the infertility is unknown. I have also been advised either to go for  TESE through surgical means with a few to using  it for ICSI  in IVF or  go for adoption.

can you advise me what to do next. My wife has been carried along throughout all these tests and advice.
Please I need expert opinions on what to do next. We do not want to adopt but have our own biological children.
Any help will be appreciated.

@Naijaking1,
Thank you for your response. Your linked article was reassuring to certain degree especially the use of clomiphene citrate .
Is it possible to buy this drug off the shelf? Or what do you suggest I sholud to in the administray-tion of the drug?
I hope to get to the route cause of this conditon. I will like to also probe if there could be a testicular reconstruction through surgical means so that fertilisation can occur naturally.

Any comment or advice would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

@Joy4real

Unfortunately non-obstructive azoospermia is not usually treated surgically, because unlike the obstructive type that might be surgically relieved, this type has genetic or somatic origin.

Like I said before, the diagnosis is quite specific, and any doctor who is capable of making this diagnosis ought to be able to educate you about therapy.

Such physicians are also usually in a position to offer treatment, because this is a very sub-specialized area of surgery.

If all these don't follow, then I would certainly go for a second opinion, before throwing in the towel.

Don't give up, no matter what!

To Dr. Balogun, thanks for starting this thread,
to naijaking1, ajolayo and the rest who helped diagnosed my problem, I want to say a very BIG Thank You .
I'm still battling with my Obstructive Sleep Apnea because it hasnt been easy losing weight  but I wont relent in my effort and any piece of advice on how to lose weight ASAP will be highly appreciated.

Once again, Thank you all, may God continue to empower you and bless you with more wisdom

At this your age? 

Good to hear from you, dude! You also look good, I'm sure your BMI is not more than 30. Keep up the good work.
