Hello Mr Thomte,

Thank you for reaching out. Based on the details shared, the patient is dealing with HIV coinfection and visceral leishmaniasis, for which Amphotericin B is being administered. The reported symptoms—seizures (rare), severe headache, vision and hearing issues, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite—warrant a detailed assessment, as these could be related to the underlying conditions, treatment side effects, or other complications.

Immediate Steps and Suggested Treatment Options

  1. Clinical Assessment and Consultation

    • Neurological Examination and consultation with Neurologist: To assess the cause of seizures, headaches, and vision/hearing issues.
    • Fundoscopy and Imaging: If headaches and vision changes persist, evaluate for papilledema or intracranial pressure.
    • Infectious Disease Specialist: To optimize HIV and leishmaniasis treatment and manage co-infections.

  2. Laboratory Tests

    • Monitor kidney function (serum creatinine, urea).
    • Check electrolytes (potassium, magnesium, calcium).
    • Perform a complete blood count and liver function tests.

  3. Medication Adjustment

    • Reassess the dosing schedule of Amphotericin B.
    • Consider anti-emetics for nausea/vomiting and appropriate medications for headaches and appetite stimulation.

Hello Suhel ji,

A calcified granuloma in the brain is usually a small, benign (non-cancerous) area of inflammation that has calcified over time. It often results from conditions like infections (e.g., tuberculosis, neurocysticercosis) or inflammatory processes. While it’s typically harmless, persistent symptoms should not be ignored.

What to Do:

  1. Schedule an appointment with a neurologist for a detailed evaluation and to understand the cause of the granuloma. They may recommend imaging tests like a CT scan or MRI to assess its size and location.

  2. Treatment Approach:

    • If it’s due to an infection (e.g., tuberculosis), treatment might involve antibiotics or antiparasitic drugs.
    • If it's causing seizures, anti-epileptic medication may be prescribed.
    • Surgery is rarely needed unless the granuloma is causing significant symptoms.
  3. Monitor Symptoms:
    Pay attention to any worsening symptoms, such as seizures, headaches, vision changes, or neurological deficits, and seek immediate medical care if they occur.

Lifestyle and Follow-Up:

  • Avoid triggers like sleep deprivation or stress if you’re prone to seizures.
  • Follow up regularly with your neurologist to monitor the condition.

Namaskar Rehman ji,

पेट में गैस और कब्ज की समस्या आम है, लेकिन इसे सही आदतों और इलाज से ठीक किया जा सकता है। आप निम्न उपाय आजमाएं:

  1. दिन में कम से कम 8-10 गिलास पानी पीएं।
  2. अपने आहार में हरी सब्जियां, फल, और साबुत अनाज शामिल करें।
  3. समय पर खाना खाएं और तैलीय, मसालेदार, और फास्ट फूड से बचें।
  4. रोज़ाना हल्का व्यायाम या योग करने से पाचन बेहतर होता है।
  5. यदि समस्या गंभीर है, तो डॉक्टर से परामर्श लें। वे गैस और कब्ज के लिए उपयुक्त दवा और इलाज बता सकते हैं।

Hello Sumit Ji,

If you have an H. pylori (Helicobacter pylori) infection, early treatment is crucial. Consult a gastroenterologist, who may suggest tests like a breath test, stool test, or endoscopy to confirm and assess the infection.

Treatment and Tips:

  • H. pylori is treated with a combination of antibiotics and acid-reducing drugs. Complete the full course of medication for effective results.
  • Avoid spicy, oily, and acidic foods to prevent stomach irritation.
  • Include probiotics (e.g., yogurt) to improve gut health.
  • Avoid smoking and alcohol.
  • Eat small, frequent meals to minimize acid production.

Post-treatment, your doctor may recommend retesting to ensure the infection is cleared.

Hello Priya,

The cost of teeth braces in government hospitals is generally lower compared to private clinics and may start from ₹10,000. However, the exact cost can vary and depends on several factors.

Factors Affecting Cost:

  1. Type of Braces Chosen: Metal braces are usually more affordable than ceramic or invisible aligners.
  2. Complexity of the Case: More severe dental misalignment may require additional procedures, increasing the cost.
  3. Duration of Treatment: Longer treatment durations typically incur higher costs.

Please note that we may not be able to provide exact cost details for government hospitals.

Hello Panchal jI,

आपकी जांघों में खुजली फंगल संक्रमण (जैसे कि एथलीट फुट) के कारण हो सकती है। TERBITEK 250 एक एंटीफंगल दवा है, जो संक्रमण को नियंत्रित करने में मदद करती है, लेकिन इसके साइड इफेक्ट्स जैसे चक्कर आना, कमजोरी या थकावट हो सकते हैं।

सुझाव:

  1. डॉक्टर से परामर्श लें: किसी त्वचा रोग विशेषज्ञ से मिलकर आपके लक्षणों की पूरी जांच करवाएं।
  2. न्यूनतम दवाएं: डॉक्टर अन्य एंटीफंगल दवाएं या क्रीम की सिफारिश कर सकते हैं जो चक्कर आने जैसे साइड इफेक्ट्स से बचाएं।
  3. स्वच्छता बनाए रखें: प्रभावित क्षेत्र को सूखा रखें और ध्यान दें कि कहीं रगड़ या घर्षण तो नहीं हो रहा।

आपका इलाज आपके डॉक्टर के मार्गदर्शन के अनुसार होना चाहिए।

Hello Nandwani Ji,

Your TSH level is low at 0.04, while your T3 and T4 levels are normal. This could indicate that the thyroxine dose you're taking (100 mcg) might be too high. However, adjustments to thyroid medication should only be made after consulting your doctor or endocrinologist. They will consider your symptoms, lab results, and medical history to determine if a dosage change is needed. Self-adjusting your dose could lead to complications.
