hi doc, i've got an issue with my knees, went to see the doc who examined them and said he suspects i have a developmental problem of the patella where the patella fails to form into one solid bone but remains as three separate pieces united by cartilege. according to him the cartilege holding these three plates together wears out very quickly as im an active sportsman and this condition normally lasts for a while but eventually goes on its own. my questions is how long should it be before it goes? i have had it for some years now, siince i was about 16 or so. the condition affetcs both knees though i noticed one of the knees is much stronger now. many thanks for your expected advice

Doc, i need a good blood pressure apparatus to buy (preferably digital). Where can i get a genuine one?

I'm addressing this to doctors familiar with HIV/AIDS, I went 4 HIV test last year May to be precise and tested positive, since then I ve been going 4 the regular 3 months checkup,my CD4 has been going up like from 600 the first time to 1100 last feb when I checked last and my viral laod was 200,my question is,is there anything that has been helping me figth the virus or is there any likelyhood that if I go for another test it would be negative.
NB:since then I ve not had any serious sickness. Pls Ur answer is needed urgently, thanks.

Dear applelady,
Once you tested positive it means you've got the virus and it's impossible for you to test negative afterwards, except you believe in the supernatural. But here are some possible reason why your CD4 count went up to 1100,
could be that you now rest well and eat proper balanced diet. It could also be that you are living positively with the virus and you ain't suffering any psychological distress.
My advice is that you keep up with your present lifestye but don't ever think you will become negative automatically.
Presently, many HIV vaccines are still in clinical trial so you need to be a bit patient.

Thanx 4 ur prompt reply, I now understand.

hi doc thanks for ur offer. i would like to know how to know when am ovulating and how to calculate menstral cycle.thanks

Doc please I observe a slight pain in my right tommy after drinking some bottles of achohol.
please any advice?

Dear Phiriki,
The pain you're experiencing is an inflammatory response causes by excessive consumption of alcohol on your liver. The pain although reversible but on continues excessive consumption of alcohol it could be degenerative and could lead to hepatitis.
My candid advise is stop or better still minimise your intake of alcohol to avoid compromising your liver.

@Bukizo: Sensitive teeth is essentially caused by recession of the gum away from the teeth, hence exposing the roots of the teeth which are richly supplied with nerve endings thus resulting in higher sensitivity. This gum recession could be as a result of years of brushing the teeth the wrong way or using brushes with hard bristles. In some cases, the solution is by using those things your dentist suggested, but this usually takes a while before any noticeable improvement. However, if such measures fail then the solution is surgery (grafting).

Hello doctor

Dear balogun,thank you for the above medic infos.for six yrs now,i have been troubled with diabetes that disturbs me a lot.pls am taking shots of insulin but the bad is that i know of peeps with similar condition that eats quite some amounts of starchy foods-the rice,eba,takes some sweets and do their medication and they are far better but if i even as much as take fruits like cocumber,carrots, a little rice iand take my insuli,i get urinating so much so often.this worries me to no end.Can u profer if there is a better treatment available as in drugs or a type of special insulin i can use.pls any advice will be appreciated.

Are you testing your blood sugar before every meal? This would help you to better keep track of where your blood sugars are, so that you know the appropriate dosage of insulin to take. The fact that you experience frequent urination suggests that your blood sugars are running high.
Rather than change your insulin, I would suggest that you balance your diet with more complex carbohydrates and protien. If you have had recent bloodwork done and you have the results, check for your Hemoglobin A1c levels. In well-controlled diabetics this number should be at 7% or less, and when it is poorly controlled, the number is greater than 8%.

The key may be in checking your blood sugar more often. People differ in how their bodies react to the carbohydrates ingested. Stick with eating well and add in the protiens and complex carbohydrates like whole grains and oats, and your body will adjust itself.

While there are different types of insulin out there, I would try checking your blood sugar, and adjusting you diet before you consult your physician.
