Health Query

I am 52 years old and had blood pressure problem. In 2010 blood sugar was detected fasting 150 & post fasting 225. Glucoman 500g. I took it for more than 2 years and sugar was under control. But for last 9 month I was erratic as the med was not available in lagos nigeria. About a fortnight back my sugar was high fasting 320 and post fasting 452. Now my doc prescribed me janumet 50mg/1000mg twice a day. The sugar has come down to fasting 150 and post fasting 275. Moreover the bp has also come down 75/130. Can you suggest what to do.

As per standard protocols, there needs to at least 5 years of seizure free period before tapering and stopping medications. Newer protocols followed by some doctors believe in stopping medications even if there is 1 year of seizure free interval. It is best that you consult with your neurologist and let him decide on what is best for you.

I am 80+ year old. I am suffering from t2 diabetes for last 15 years. How do doctors prescribe medicines? is there any co-relation between fasting & pp sugar reading and medicines prescribed. Currently I am onmetformin 500mg+2mg glimiperide before lunch and before dinner. My average fasting sugar currently is 100 and pp is 149. Is the dose correct? can it be reduced?

Your sugar levels are very well controlled. Please make sure you don't get hypoglycemic episodes otherwise dose adjustment has to be done.

Hiv-4th generation test which tests both antibodies and p24 antigen. After 4 months of exposure if negative is reasonably reliable

My uncle was detected with hepatitis b in 2001. He was seriously ill for one month. But later he recovered. Last week he had to undergo a minor surgery. His blood test showed hepatitis b. Earlier, no one in my family had any knowledge on this disease. But now everyone is panicked. Some are saying, there is no cure for it. As of now, he is perfectly alright. It seems that the virus is dormant. Is there any treatment for it? Would starting any antiviral therapy like entecavir break the dormancy of the virus? What should we do now. Last month, one close relative of us died due to cirrhosis (after infecting with hepatitis b). Please advise me.

Hepatitis B is a liver infection caused by a virus (called the hepatitis B virus, or HBV). It can be serious and there's no cure, but the good news is it's easy to prevent. You can protect yourself by getting the hepatitis B vaccine and having safer sex. Treatment for chronic hepatitis B may include Antiviral medications. Several antiviral medications — including entecavir (Baraclude), tenofovir (Viread), lamivudine (Epivir), adefovir (Hepsera) and telbivudine (Tyzeka) — can help fight the virus...more

Hello.
There is a well written protocol to follow for giving pep for hiv.
The Dr. was right in asking you to have a base line hiv test, mostly a rapid test, with result with in 15 to 20 mins and than give pep .however even if no rapid test is available pep is given at once depending upon the risk assessment. Your Dr. was the person to do the risk assessment based on kind of exposure and gave you pep of 2 drug combo. As for side effect of nausea and vomitting you got right meds and soon y...more

I'm 22 m.so while having sex the condom broke and I went in for a good 1 min. Before I changed the condom. The hiv status is not known of the other person. But she did had multiple partners in past. The private clinic doc said me to go for pep (raltegravir+ ricovir + n cumin cap+ nimbadi vati, started within 72 hours) so im facing 3-4 kg weight loss after using em for 5 days .at day 4th since I had sex I got tested for hiv at a govt hospital which came in negative (i know it can't be conclusive) he asked me to get tested after a month and stop taking pep when I asked about it, I explained him whole scenario. Then I went to another govt hospital at 7th day after having sex to get tested for other hiv where he took a look at my genital and said it's fine. I explained him everything he also told me same to stop pep and get tested after few weeks for hiv and im currently getting tested for other stis. But my main concern is pep should I stop taking it? Or should I keep going. Are there any life threating side effects?
