View 3 RepliesI'm a 36 year old woman who has been battling undiagnosed health issues for about 10 years. No family doctor. Suggestions of possible autoimmune disease made by more than one ER doctor but as they only treat acute issues, I've never had any testing. On July 2nd I felt like I was having a heart attack or something, the pain would not let up for about half hour so my hub took me to the ER. BP was 158/100. I had blood taken and they prepped me with a picc line (which was never used as I refused the drugs). Test results came back ALT 312 AST 604 and doc said he was concerned so req ultrasound and blood work to check for hep A, B and C. Ultrasound found gallstones but no inflammation in the gallbladder. I do not drink, I do not take any medication...rarely take advil (I mean very rarely)...do not take Tylenol. I do not use recreational drugs either. I was asked by both the 1st ER doc and the second...if I was a drinker. Waiting for hep blood work results still...and still have a constant dull pain in my upper abdomen, mostly right side but also some on the left and some mid abdominal pain also and as always...I'm very fatigued. Not sure what is going on...anyone else had levels this high and got a dx?
View 1 RepliesI am a 59 yr. old male and a disabled Veteran. I have been taking Testosterone for the past 15 years every 2 weeks. My doctor took me off of it on June 4th because my red blood count was too high. My body doesn't produce Testosterone anymore because of Hemochromatosis, which is a blood disease which produces too much iron in my blood.
View 5 RepliesI can find information on high white count and enlarged red blood cell separately. I can not get the information on combination of both. I see a Hematologist/Oncologist tomorrow. I need to be prepared if I am going to labeled an alcoholic. Anyone have both of these issues?
View 1 RepliesI previously posted about my night sweats but now I have a new symptom. Mostly in the morning, my forehead and sometimes my face feels hot but I don't have a fever. In fact my temp. will be a degree below normal. My body will feel a little warm but not as much as my face and forehead. Does this sound like mild hot flashes?

View 3 RepliesMy wife's past WBC count was always about 5. She just recently had a test and it is 3.7 and has been flagged as low on her health records (nurse didn't mention it but she has only seen her online records since speaking to the nurse).
Now she is worried because her father died of leukemia. Is this white blood cell count dangerously low or unlikely to be anything serious?
I had a count of over 500 protein in urine than two weeks later 100, primary dr says not too concerned....
I am 71 and have had Rheumatoid since 1988. Had various treatments over the years. I have been on hydroxychloroquine for about 8 years. One tablet a day up until just over a year ago when it flared up and I have been on two since then. Recent blood tests showed my neutrophil levels were just under half of normal. At my check up specialist reduce the dose back to one and asked for another blood test. This one was down to 15% of normal.
Has anyone else had this problem. It is pretty scary and I am under instruction about seeking urgent help in case of infection.
I'm 16yrs old and I had been mastrubating since few yrs but now I have resisted it after a lot of determination and hard work.. when I used to masrtrubate the semen color was too normal.im afraid that mastrubation which results in ejaculations might lead to low sperm count.. though I have many yrs to get married I'm worried about the sperm count... Can the sperm count grow into required level if I stop masrtrubating for the next 8-10 yrs.....

View 3 RepliesOn my neck I felt a lymph node near the neck muscle, it felt huge. I went to doctors and they said it was hard, sent me for a scan as we didn't know why it was there. They said it was 3 cm and few there but by time I went for scan, I had a throat infection about 2 weeks after finding the lump. They said leave it, it's from that all lymph nodes all good and healthy. I'm very worried, I feel it's still there, it's huge to me. Some doctors say I'm feeling a sort of muscle and there's a pea size lump they said it's gone down from when I went. I don't know if I'm feeling a muscle of bone or cartilage. But when you lift your neck up and you put your fingers next to the neck muscle towards the throat at the top, that's where I can feel it. My eosinophil count keeps coming back raised, which is a white cell but normally it comes back normal about 7 for quite a while. Now it's at 9.1. Freaking out every day, I can't relax. I feel it's serious. Any help would be great please.

View 2 RepliesThis may be a daft question but I can't help wondering if anyone else has had blood test results where your white blood cell count was elevated? It seems mine are always out? It's not crazy high but high enough the doctor calls me in.
Is there any links between wbc and Fibro?
i am not overweight. Drink a healthy smoothie and whole grain cereal almost every morning yet my BP is still high. (100/170). I was told it may be because of elevated insulin levels caused by the fruit drinks and whole grains (as well as the potato, rice, pasta and breads) that I eat. These are things that easily break down into sugars and cause the issue. (Basically a carb issue). Am I supposed to go on one of those caveman diets? Has anyone tried lowering their carb intake to lower their BP?

View 2 RepliesLet me start off by saying I am a 20 year old male who was fine before all of this started. I went to the ER for chest pain and palpitations they did the basic test like EKG Xray and Blood work. The ER doctor said i was fine and they let em go home but said i need to see a cardiologist to just make sure everything was fine. So i went to see a cardiologist and the hospital faxed over all of my test results. Based on my ER visits EKG i have an abnormally high P wave everything else on the EKG was fine. They set me up for a Echocardiogram to make sure i did not have an enlarged heart. that test came back normal and they said i did not have a enlarged heart. They set me up for a Stress Echo test I went in for the test got my heart rate up to 200bpm the before and after pictures of my heart looked good and they said everything was working fine and that i was healthy. But during the test i still have those high P waves showing up on the EKG which he said was caused because I am very thin chested and my hear beats close to the surface of my chest so the EKG pick up a higher voltage. Now i have noticed a slight arrhythmia when i take my pulse it tends to beat at 60 bpm then 5 or 6 beats later it jumps to 80 bpm then back to 60 after 5 or so beats. This comes and goes and does not happen all the time and when it does happen it only last up to 30 minutes but during that time i feel fatigued . And finally my blood pressure seems high the systolic pressure is always within normal range its the diastolic that always above normal when i tested my blood pressure with a home blood pressure monitor today it was at 135 over 87 then when i tested it later on in the day it was 127 over 83 i have noticed in multiple test the diastolic seem to float around the mid 80's to 90's the highest i have seen is 133 over 99. The cardiologist does not see to think there is anything wrong with me I have another appointment this week to bring up the high blood pressure and the arrhythmia.

Recently been diagnosed with high cholesterol along with my high blood pressure. Was on atenolol and bendrofluazide but these weren't keeping my bp down so was put on lisinopril. I have had pains in my stomach since i started my new meds wake in the night with a jolt, am tired and feel weak all the time, i'm only 43 and not over weight. Has anyone else had these symptoms. I'm unsure what is causing what as every thing has changed all at once?
