Health › Re: Is Dexacotin Safe For Weight Gain? by eightsin(m): 10:11am On Jan 18, 2015
Dear Dr. Bibbi Oluranti,
I thank God for the knowledge and wisdom He gave you, and the way you utilize it wisely. I am a regular reader of your column. My problem started when I was desperate to add weight last (2) two years ago.
I went to many dealers (chemists). Finally, I was recommended Dexacortin which I used --two and half bottles-- and it worked. After 8 months, I realized that there are strange pimples, dryness, skin thinning and irritation on my face and body. I went to a dermatologist who prescribed some drugs for me but I still noticed small amount of pimples and skin thinning while I weigh 80kg as of this month. Please doctor, help me for I have no other person to complain to; you are God's gift-- I believe your solution is final--I have the faith.
Thanks
F.J, Owerri; Imo



Dear F J
Like all the above has said it is true that the drug Dexacortin and other steroids can be abused in the manner you did. One of the commonest reasons why people do this is because they believe it will help them gain weight.--and it does!! Sportsmen abuse steroids because they are looking for stamina and increased muscle mass. But this is diseased weight--not normal at all.
The way to get rid of the evil side effects of the drug is to stop early and gradually. Where gradual withdrawal --using less and less amounts per time--is not possible or has not been done, the only thing is to give the body time to adjust and come back to its former balance--may take up to a year or more. Side effects like lowered sperm production in men and reduced size of testis--testicular atrophy-- and can be reversed while baldness and gynecomastia-- development of breast --cannot be reversed in men. In women, side effects include virilisation--making the woman more like a man-- no menses, more developed clitoris deepening voice decreased breast size and so on. Of course, the other side effects you mentioned must not be forgotten-- thinning hair, and so on. Again the more prolonged the use, the greater the likelihood that the results will become irreversible; so let me warn anyone abusing steroids (or any drugs for that matter) again--stop it-- IT IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU.
One other lesson we must not forget to teach is --beware self medication; beware chemists, nurses and other paramedics’ (not specifically mentioned in these letters) treatment -- always insist on seeing a doctor.
You can call the help lines and ask for help to resolve lingering side effects
Cheers
Dr Caleb Bibbi Oluranti

Dexacortin is a very dangerous drug that should be available only by prescription and not to every Tom, Dick and Harry. It belongs to a special, distinguished class of drugs known and referred to as steroids and cortico-steroids. They are made in the gland above the kidneys called the adrenals and can have very bad side effects if mishandled or abused which, I'm afraid, is what you are doing. All the good effects you say you are seeing are false- very false. That is they are happening not because you are now getting fatter or shapelier but because you are now developing a drug induced condition triggered by the drug you are using called Cushing syndrome that causes the false fatness you are seeing hypertension and amenorrhea menses stops the face goes rounded false curves as if you put on true weight but a sign of disease which is characteristic of this disease; we call it moon facies (the face goes rounded like the moon). Please stop the drug at once (and never use drugs not prescribed by doctors any more, ever) or risk these further side effects burning, itching, dryness, irritation, pimple-like rashes, skin thinning, marks on the skin, boils, increased skin pigmentation and increased hair growth. Also you risk all forms of secondary infection occurring. Think twice.
Cheers

zyzxx:
try to download another activator or format it

Tolzeal will help u wit d link
You mean I shld format the system? Another thing I'm seeing is that he windows currently on that I'm seeing is windows 8 pro but it actually came with windows 8. The engineers must have changed it but I didn't ask them. It's very annoying cos it's a new system I jst got bt noticed some issues n I returned it only for them to return it bck to me after well over two months. Noticed it was formated and also opened and the windows unactivated . So if I format, which windows will be restored? D 8 or 8 pro?

This is understandable. That is why when I bought a laptop from task direct and noticed some defect,returned it and it's 2 months and 2 weeks now bt yet to get it except I pay for the courier that will bring it to me..although it's very painful but I try to understand and not blame them much altho to a large extent, they shld be held responsible for the delivery but no go fit fight. Will just pay n get my laptop back weda good or bad
tecboss:
I may have to comment concerning the warranty offered on mobile phones. Now when a gadget has a warranty on it, such warranty obligation do not come directly from the seller. It comes from the manufacturer or its representatives.

Example, if u buy a Nokia phone at a shop in Abuja, a few hours before boarding a flight to Lagos. On getting to Lagos, you noticed that the memory card slot of the phone is not recognising the inserted memory card. The question is, would u board another flight back to Abuja just to return the phone to the shop u bought it? No! The best option u have is to take the phone to the nearest Nokia Service Center in Lagos, and ur complain would be addressed. In most cases, u could get ur gadget repaired immediately or u will be required to drop it and come back on appointment to pick it up.

In this instance, Jumia is selling an injoo phone and they are not the manufacturer of the said phone. So if the phone supplied to u is deffective, I suppose they must have sent it for warranty service. I simply would advise u to be patient with them.

This is my humble opinion. I do not rep . Jumia

Please I need help. I just collected my laptop back from task direct. Only to get home and it showing water mark in the desktop background. I then discovered that the windows has not been activated. I tried activating it but it's showing error 0x8007007B the filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect . What do I do?

note flash share works between bb10 and andriod fones bt nt between bb10 devices. If you want to connect your bb10 device to an andriod device, you put on your wifi then create connection on the andriod device, your fone wifi will detect the andriod device which appears in diff alphabet like dis ADWYYY.....U CONNECT to dat connection then you go to your flash share and join the connection
Have tried this yet did not get result. I was able to connect my wifi to the android but when I opened the flash share. The android phone did not see my flash share
