Diarrhea and Crohn’s disease

Diarrhea is not common with cases of Crohn’s disease that only affect the small intestine. Diarrhea occurs in 85% of patients; other symptoms include hematochezia, fever, weight loss, malaise, nausea, and arthralgias. The diagnosis depends on the presenting complaint including acute appendicitis, small bowel obstruction, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, malabsorption syndromes, infectious or ischemic colitis, neoplasia, hemorrhoids, and diverticular disease. Diarrhea and crampy abdominal pain are relieved when the inflammation subsides, however additional medication may also be necessary. Several antidiarrheal agents could be administered, including diphenoxylate, loperamide, and codeine.

Worried About The Shingles Vaccine

I know that a lot of people tend to get a milder version of whatever virus they are being vaccinated against. I am not sure if I would want to endure even a minor episode of shingles when there is a good chance that I won't ever suffer from this condition to begin with plus you'll find that there are plenty of natural cures for shingles in existance. I am not yet in the recommended vaccination age group (60 and over), but many of my family members are, and I know they have the same concerns I do. I actually have one family member who was afraid to get the vaccine and ended up with shingles. I guess I should probably learn from her mistake, but I am still worried.

Watching prostate cancer

While doctors call it watchful waiting, it is best suited for men with a 10-year life expectancy or less who have a low Gleason number and whose tumor has not spread beyond the prostate. The idea is that in the cancer is growing so slowly, they likely won’t die from it. While doctors have several ways to treat prostate cancer, the choice depends on many factors, such as whether or not the cancer has spread beyond the prostate, the patient’s age and general wellbeing, and how the patient feels about the treatment options and their potential side effects.
