<s>[INST] Suggest treatment for alzheimer s disease [/INST] I read your question carefully and I am sorry about the situation you are in.It is difficult to make recommendations on treatment though because I am not sure she has Alzheimer's. Dementia can have many different causes, Alzheimer's is the most common, but there are other possibilities to be excluded such as vascular dementia (repeated strokes), vitamin B12 deficiency, low thyroid function, Parkinson's disease just to name some common ones.The fact she manifested symptoms at only 56 is a red flag to consider a diagnosis other than Alzheimer's as it typically occurs later. The tremor you describe is also not typical for Parkinson, makes stroke, parkinsonian syndromes or vitamin b12 deficiency more likely.So the way to go is to check what blood tests has she exactly done, have thyroid function and vitamin B12 level been included. Also while a CT might serve to exclude some issues, generally a MRI is a recommended exam as it gives more info on the atrophied sites or old lesions which could orient the diagnosis. A neurological exam also is needed although I understand the difficulties you are encountering in finding a neurologist, she should be evaluated for parkinsonian or other neurological signs as well as have some neuropsychological tests to determine what areas of cognition have been more affected.I hope things work out for the best. </s> |

<s>[INST] Q. Can Yasmin birth control pill be used as an emergency contraceptive pill? [/INST] Hi. How are you doing? Yes, as you have heard, Yasmin can be used as an emergency pill. Even if you have not ejaculated into her, she stands a chance of pregnancy if the pre-seminal fluid, the clear fluid that comes out before semen, which is rich in young healthy sperms, comes in contact with her genitals. As soon as possible, earlier the better, I suggest taking four tablets of Yasmin (combination of Ethinyl Estradiol and Drospirenone) at the time, repeat four more tablets after 12 hours. This being a high dose of hormones, it will suddenly increase the inner lining of the uterus. Then as it is a single dose, the inner lining will fall off. This makes it unfavorable for the possible embryo or baby to settle into the uterus. She will get her periods within 7 to 10 days of the last pill. But do not keep repeating this frequently, it can disturb the hormonal balance and can reduce the effectiveness of the pill. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines after their consent. This is an old method, but it is an effective emergency method. Just do not delay the pills. As time passes by, the effectiveness reduces. Hope I have clarified your query, do write back. All the best. For further queries consult an obstetrician and gynaecologist online --> </s> |

<s>[INST] Q. What is the stigma around mental health? [/INST] Hello. Stigma for mental illnesses is as old as civilization itself. Persons having mental illnesses were considered as evil. Mental illnesses were thought to be due to past life sins. A person having any kind of mental illness whether neurotic or psychotic was considered as "mental" or "crazy" or "lunatic". Progressively these all resulted in failure to acknowledge the mental illness and individuals develop thinking that what others would think if they consult a psychiatrist. Stigma is there because of cultural beliefs. Even in western countries, people have hesitation in consulting a psychiatrist. What will others think about me? People will make fun of me if I consult a psychiatrist, psychiatric medicines will make me emotionally numb, I will become dependent on medicines, etc., are the reasons there is a stigma for mental illnesses. Psycho-education is the most important method to break stigma. Awareness in public about mental illnesses, acknowledgment by celebrities that they too suffer mental issues are the factors that can help to break the stigma. Making people believe that mental illnesses are like any other medical illnesses, and these occur because of change in neuro-transmitters also help in reducing stigma. </s> |

<s>[INST] When should I try to conceive after discontinuing the depo shot? [/INST] Hello, and I hope I can help you today. It can take a while for the effects of Depo to wear off enough for a woman to ovulate again. However, in your case, the fact that you have had two normal cycles is reassuring that your hormones are working normally. 80 percent of couples conceive within 1 year of trying, so it is not necessary to have any evaluation for fertility problems unless you have been trying for at least a year. The best time to try to get pregnant is between when your period finishes and the time you begin to feel PMS symptoms. Once you get PMS symptoms, it means you are already pregnant or your ovulation had passed. Intercourse every other day maximizes the sperm count per ejaculate. I hope I adequately answered your question today and that this information was reassuring. Best wishes, Dr. Brown </s> |

If he feels short of breath contact me back, otherwise fine. 1. He should avoid re-exposure. 2.

<s>[INST] Q. I am diagnosed with NPD and ASPD. How to get it treated? [/INST] Hello. First of all, I have to appreciate you for asking this question. It takes a huge amount of courage to question ourselves, and especially in cases of NPD (narcissistic personality disorder) and ASPD (antisocial personality disorder). Where the individual lacks the insight of his issues and often only sees problems in others. Personality disorder, in general, is a difficult entity to be treated, but continuous long term therapy (cognitive behavior therapy) and psychotherapy help wonderfully in stabilizing if not curing completely. Instead of working on changing yourself, you should focus on managing your thought patterns and behavior. The good thing in your case is that you already have some level of awareness, which would help you out. So I would suggest starting therapy as soon as possible. Also, I want to know if you are taking any meds currently? You can follow-up with the same doctor as keep your medicines on track. I hope this helps. I would need more information to help you better and in specific ways which work for you. Let me know if you have any questions. </s> |

<s>[INST] Suggest treatment for chest pain/tightness [/INST] Hello and thank you for using HCM.I carefully read your question and I understand your concern.I will try to explain and give you my opinion.

After all this we can be shure for everything. So I will advise you to stay calm, it doesn't seem to be something to worry about but just make an appointment to do what I mention above.

<s>[INST] New born suffering from down syndrome, swelling in right side of the heart, difficulty breathing. Treatment options? [/INST] Hello aunt, If the hospital is capable of picking up down syndrome on day one means you are at the right place. If the baby inside the uterus has any stress, it may pass motion into the amniotic fluid, if aspirated can cause problems. To manage them the child has been correctly admitted in the ICU. As you know heart has left and right sides: Right side receives venous blood from various parts of the body ( which is less in oxygen ) and pumps it to the lungs for oxygenation. From the lungs it will return to the left side, to be circulated to other parts of the body . Now when the lungs have problems, like aspirated meconium, oxygenation may not be normal. So the heart has to over work, and become 'tired' in the process. The function of the right heart, pumping venous blood into the lungs comes down. resulting in fluid accumulation. This for easy understanding they have told as swollen heart. If the basic condition is treated then heart function will become normal. Several children have been born like this throughout the world. Generally they recover. We must thank the ICU people managing small babies. They work very hard and are very passionate about their work, and they love children. with regards </s> |

<s>[INST] Lower abdominal pain, irregular bleeding, back pain, bladder infection, congestion. On plan B. Help? [/INST] Hi there ! The pain in your left side rib cage could be due to respiratory tract infection as described in your history and also due to a possible infection of the pleurae. The burning sensation while passing urine is possibly and rightly due a urinary tract infection, which occurs not infrequently in sexually active females. This could be associated with infection of the pelvic organs giving rise to pain in the back and lower abdomen. The treatment for both needs proper antibiotics. The irregular bleeding could be due to your contraceptive plan B , but a chance miscarriage can not be excluded. Any foreign body in the uterus may give rise to such symptoms. You should go for routine blood and urine tests, along with an ultrasound of the abdomen and an x-ray chest if advised by your physician and only after excluding pregnancy. Good luck. </s> |

The menses can get delayed even up to two weeks, so just wait for another week and they should arrive. If not, then you can safely opt for a progesterone withdrawal to resume menses.

It is an infection of the tonsils and the pharynx, mostly bacterial looking at the associated symptoms you have. You must take an appropriate antibiotic for the same and in my office, I usually empirically start my patients on Amoxicillin 500 mg thrice a day for five days. Also, I give them symptomatic treatment, Paracetamol 650 mg taken SOS for fever and pain, Levocetirizine 5 mg taken once a day for a runny nose, Phenylephrine 10 mg taken once or twice a day for the stuffy nose (Note: There are combinations of Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Levocetirizine). Good supportive treatment comprising hot water gargles, plenty of warm water to drink, avoidance of smoke, dust and cold foods, avoidance of oily-spicy foods during the course of treatment and a healthy nutritious diet will help remove the infection faster. The white or yellow spots on the tonsil are due to obstruction of small crypts due to the infection. It is a common finding in follicular variety of tonsillitis.

<s>[INST] Having lower back pain. Took lyrical, targin, feeling sick. Give me suggestion [/INST] Hello Louise,Thanks for posting on HCM,Given that the medications targin (generic names: oxycodone/naloxene combination) and lyrica (generic name: pregabalin) can be very addictive together and so should be used with a lot of caution. It is true that they are good for such conditions as chronic back pain and may relieve your symptoms, but getting addicted to them will instead become a problem that will have to be solved as you can not be on those for the rest of your life ( I do not recommend continuous use). Your pain management doctor may advise other treatment options and give you alternative medications or therapies such as physical therapy/chiropractor. If I was to treat you, i will change your medications to equivalents such as tricyclic antidepressants (that can treat both nerve pain and depression that came as a result of the pain) and also antiinflammatory for about 1-2 months. Refer you to a physical therapist for that period until I can see you again in 2-3 months after which I will be able to see if treatment is effective or not.I also recommend you see a rheumatologist.Hope this helps </s> |
