Question 1

I've been dealing with a fever every evening accompanied by chills for over 20 days, but I didn't have any other symptoms. So, I went to see a physician, took antibiotics, and had all kinds of blood tests done, along with a chest X-ray and a CT scan. Everything came back normal except for my ESR, which was elevated. Now, the fever is gone, but the ESR count is still high, and none of the doctors can figure out why. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Accepted Answer

visit General physician for evaluation ana management

Question 2

I've been dealing with chest pain for a while now, and it sometimes comes with back pain as well. I've seen a few doctors, including an orthopedic, a cardiologist, and a general doctor, but each time they said there's no problem and just gave me painkillers. The pain still hasn't completely gone away. I recently visited a rheumatologist, and they suggested I take Gabapin NT for a month. Is this medication safe to use? I've also read online that it might cause weight gain. Could that be true? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any advice.

Accepted Answer

Patient is advised to ootinue tablet gabapin NT once a day for atleast 3 months.

Question 3

I'm experiencing something strange with my fingers, and I'm hoping you could help figure out what's going on. Sometimes in a week, my right hand middle finger shows a range from 93 to 95 or from 98 to 94. But when I check my left middle finger or any other finger, it's always between 97 and 100. This inconsistency has got me really puzzled. Could there be any reason why my right middle finger is showing these changes while the others aren't? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Accepted Answer

saturation varies based on many reasons, like coldness

I'm a bit concerned because my CRP levels are high, even though my cholesterol and blood pressure are normal. I'm not sure which doctor or specialist I should be reaching out to about this. Could you guide me?
