Pls go and see a Dr quickly. Don't play with your symptoms. I had a slightly similar issue and I have done chest xray, ECG and even did Echocardiography today.

The Lord is your strength. The earlier you know the issue, the better for you.

Depends what you mean by ticklish. Can you feel any lump in your armpit?. Do you sweat very much under your armpit?
Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by hardeynhiyhi: 8:31pm On Nov 24, 2020

Thanks for the prompt response.I don't know how better I can describe it,there's no lump and I don't sweat very much.I noticed the ticklish feeling extends to my mouth, ear and neck region at times.

Not sure what it could be. It could be some sort of neuropathy if it is affecting your mouth, ears and neck. Otherwise it could just be something benign with no organic causes.!

ESR is erythrocyte sedimentation rate and it looks at how long it takes blood to settle at the bottom of a tube. It is usually a marker of inflammation. Now, lab tests aren’t interpreted in isolation. Your requesting team will interpret it based on your clinical symptoms etc so it is best you check with them

Hi
Kindly post the CT scan interpretation report. Lymph node enlargement on radiology scan is non specific finding. Have you had any bloods or any other investigations done?


Good evening Doc .. I'm sorry for the late response.. I'm getting use to this platform. Here is of the Abdominal CT scan below... On the 6th of August i was diagnosed of Sepsis with a very high fever which was treated with multiple anti biotic Meronem and some other type of anti biotics .. I had a little kidney injury , increased creatinine but was attended to.. The last FBC i did dat was around Oct all appeared to be normal range..
Ever since I have been experiencing serious weakness and dizziness.. I eat well but always weak... I don't know what else to do..

Hello!

First time on Nairaland.

So, on May 19th I woke up with a sore throat. I waited it out for a couple of days to let it clear up but it didn't, so I went to the pharmacy to buy a throat spray, I used this for a week but it still hurts when I swallow. So I thought it's a bacteria infection, I went to buy erythromycin, I used that till I finished the whole pack but the pain in my throat was still there.

The thing is, the pain didn't increase and neither did it decrease and I'm still able to eat food without any issue and drink water. Then, one night I noticed I had a feeling of something lodged in my throat, I drank loads of water to push it down but all to no relief, and I also feel like I have phlegm at the back of my throat so I constantly have to clear it.

I'm not in any sort of unimaginable pain or anything because I'm still able to carry on with my daily activities without stress but my anxiety levels has increased because of the feeling of something stuck in my throat.

So, I googled my symptoms and boy do I regret that already. I saw a disease called gerd and LPR and the dreaded "C" word. The thought of that makes me want to have a panic attack.

I'm a 24 year old male who doesn't smoke nor drinks. What do you guys think could be the problem? Help me out, I'm losing my mind here!

That is exactly what is happening you have gerd which is causing acid reflux which is making gas to flow back to the throat thus causing sore throat, lump sensation in the throat and mucus
To end acid reflux buy omeprazole and take for 7days one 2 times daily and it will clear

Hi doc. I noticed when i lie down, my heart burns, minty throat sensation and stomach region ONLY gets warms like someone rubs rob on the tummy. But if i stand up, walk or sit, the tummy warmness vanishes and becomes cold but my throat will still be having this minty sensation as if i licked tomtom. This is worrisome as i dont eat well again due to state of mind. I am worried and in dilemma. What could be a lasting remedy to this? I once used Cafergot pill when i experienced an unexplained chronic headache and head-hotness which have all vanished aftrewards. I have used acid blocker (3 in 1) like ulsa kit when i first sensed this scenario. Currently, I use Natrixam 1.5/5mg for my blood pressure control OR could it be the cause? I need help o
Wonderful this is exactly what happened to me, I used to experience tingling sensation in my throat immediately after waking up but it has stopped after taking Akamu in ordinary water for 3 days

Hi
Sounds like your lymphadenopathy is reactive. This could be due to your sepsis. Your symptoms of dizziness etc may be in the context of post sepsis syndrome which can linger
Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by slenderBeam1: 9:40pm On Nov 26, 2020
I'm shy of asking my surgeon. I underwent appendectomy about 3 weeks ago. I'm okay and back to my daily norms but the wound hasn't totally healed . A smaller part is yet to close unlike the larger part that has totally closed. The question now is , can I have, maybe a light sex INTERCOURSE because I have urge for sex. I sleep on the same bed with my wife, yet I have been on abstinence.

Good evening Doc, thanks for your kind response.. Pls, doc what can I do in regards to what you just said because I don't even know what route to take right now..
Should I run some test again or something like that?.
Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by prinxwizard(m): 9:59pm On Nov 26, 2020
First of all let me start by apologizing for bothering anyone out there with this post, but the truth is I really need good suggestions. So please,I beg you all to help me out on this.
This started sometime last year (I think April). I had this ugly sexual experience with someone. Ugly in the sense that I started feeling sick after about a day or two. I developed symptoms of viral infection (flu, headache, body pains, etc.) coupled with mild burning sensation in my genital while urinating.
I decided to seek for help amongst my friends and was told to visit a hospital for lab tests to be carried out which I heeded to. To my surprise the doctor that attended to me waved away the idea of having a HIV test because 'the symptoms are not peculiar to HIV'. So I took the urinalysis test which she suggested. When the result came out I was diagnosed of gonorrhea and was given some prescriptions.
Fast forward, few weeks later the burning sensation and attendant scratching (lol) seized and I went back for retest which confirmed it has been cured.
All through this period I was experiencing some malaria-like symptoms (though I kept using over the counter malaria drugs). At a point I visited another hospital for a another lab test. This time I insisted on testing for Hepatitis A&B together with HIV test. The tests all came out negative, though I was advised to wait for a period of three months and get tested again for HIV. But along the line my health improved and I forgot about redoing the test.
Fast forward again, two months ago I started falling sick constantly and kept using over the counter malaria and typhoid drugs which rarely had any effect. Then, last month I started having some strange symptoms, which included chest squeezing and trouble breathing at times, panic attacks and serious burning sensations in my head- which makes me really uncomfortable, disoriented and confused most of the time.
So again I visited a laboratory centre and conducted tests for HIV, Hepatitis C, typhoid and malaria. In all I was told I had hepatitis C and prescriptions for treatment was given to me. I visited a pharmacist the next day and was billed for treatment.
The most confusing thing for me right now is the fact that the pharmacist concluded the treatments yesterday but I'm not yet fine as the burning sensation in my head started yet again last night to even this very moment. I feel like I'm losing it.
Please what should I do next
I'm sorry for the long story.........
