Question

I'm currently getting treatment with intacept injections, four shots a month for the past three months. I'm just wondering about the safety of these injections and if they offer a long-term solution since the cost is pretty high. Can you shed some light on this?

Question

I'm really concerned because my ESR is at 80mm after the first hour, as per the report, and for the last two months, I've been dealing with frequent fevers. I had viral fever, then got typhoid twice, and recently another fever hit me. My doctor suggested some tests, and most came back fine, except for an abdominal scan that showed my liver has increased in size and my ESR is high. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Question

I'm a bit worried because my mom got prescribed Sompraz 40 for her Rheumatic Arthritis side effects, but the pharmacy gave us Sompraz D 40 instead. Do you think it's okay to use this one or should I try to get it exchanged for the original prescription? Just want to make sure she's taking the right medication.
