What's up Doc? IV

[DocShe_713]

Bella- the findings of collapsed gallbladder on ct scan is non specific and doesnt mean that there is infection . If it is a distended gallbladder then that is more alarming and may be due to inflammation. What do you mean during surgery di nagpatawag ng surgeon. Whats the specialty of your doctor? Did he remove your
gallbladder?

[DocShe_713]

Bella- why was the catheter left for a month? During surgery what were the finding? Its not normal to get swelling even after being on catheter for a month. There might be a need to inbestigate your condition. What did your doctor explain to you regarding your condition.

hi! i have high creatinine reading of 106 vs the 96 umol/L value as reported from our company's annual physical exam. is this something i should be more urgently concerned about? what's the 1st type of check-up or doctor i should go to?

[DocShe_713]

Trianna- do you have any urinary symptoms? How was your urinalysis? Bst person to go to would be a Nephrologist.

[Trianna]

doc she, my urinalysis summary says its normal and i have no difficulty urinating

Hi Doc She the catheter remained for almost a month kasi i wasn't able to bladder train properly after two weeks after upon discharged doc said mahihirapan daw ako umihi if pipilitin so it stayed for long then when it was finally removed i needed naman to exert more pressure when voiding pag di iiri i cant completely empty my bladder , when sitting or standing for a long period it swells though pag nakahiga minimal lang, it goes away naman po, no swelling pag naka-pee na at naka-defecate na. It looks like edema but doc said hindi naman daw kasi sa legs or limbs daw magnifest edema not on the labia or on the pubic area.. My doctor is an ob-onco po, the plan po kasi is isasabay na yung removal ng gall bladder during tahbso if ever daw po magpapatawag ng surgeon for that. But since he did not baka ok naman. When i reported him about the swelling he just advised me to drink lots of water , to void completely, and to massage the area, kasi daw po wala na ngang reproductive organs so natira na lang ay intestines at bladder, do i have to undergo further test po ba? I was diagnosed of Cervical Ca last year of March , operation was last August 2012 po.

Hi doc,please advice me naman,after 9 hours of work I get tired na and sleepy. puyat na. i still want to have energy more than 9 hours.
I sleep naman 7 to 8 hours a day. I take vitamin c and b12 vitamins. yung work ko lakad ng lakad but i don't want that to be an excuse.
what can you recommend me? i want to have healty life.

[DocShe_713]

Bella- just want to make sure that the bladder or ureter was not injured during surgery? Yes you need the help of a urologist. This is not anymore the field of your ob onco. I do believe that you have to have a follow up with a urologist coz this is not at all normal.

[DocShe_713]

Snowhite- whats the nature of Your work? What are your work hours?

[bellanjelah]

Than you so much Doc She, yan din ang naiiisip ko if there was an injury done during the surgery kasi 9 lymph nodes din natanggal sa akin. And during the time that i was on a catheter i felt and observed that there was some leakage/leaking. Though when the doctors checked sabi nila intact naman daw catheter and there shoudnt be any leakage. I will consult a uro na asap, Thanks again Doc and God bless.

Snowhite- whats the nature of Your work? What are your work hours?

my work involves alot of walking. lakad ng lakad. most of the time hindi ako naka upo lang sa chair.
na sitting pretty. daytime job lang po doc. but usually after 9 hrs of work i get exhausted na.
parang gusto ko ng matulog at mag rest.

[DocShe_713]

Snowhite- thats normal then. Anybody in your state will also feel that. Just take a vacation once in a while to recharge.

Hi Doc, ask lang sana ako kung sino pwede nyo ma recommend na allergologist. I have an active lifestyle and lately palaging nabibilad sa araw. Palaging makati yung skin ko kahit uminom ako ng antihistamine ang mag lagay ng topical oitments.

Hello Doc,

anong klaseng doctor ang dapat lapitan kapag ang ipapa-check-up ay yung breast?

[DocShe_713]

Lunaris- a surgeon

[mischa04]

hi doc, just want to ask.. lagi kasing sumasakit yung legs ko, esp pag long walk, masakit yung leg muscles parang ganon.. They said i lack potassium kaya daw ganon.. Is this true? If it is, ano pa kayang rich in potassium aside from banana? Thanks..

[DocShe_713]

Mischa- not necessarily you lack potassium. The most common would still be musculoskeletal strain. To check if you lack potassium. Then a blood exam is usually done.

[mischa04]

Oh ok..thanks doc :-)
