Blood in Stool?
Ok, this started about a week and a half ago. I had, had really bad pains where my appendix is all day ( I have had mine out). The pain was quite bad. Later that day when I went to empty my bowels I was in incredible pain (where appendix was). Eventually I ignored it, and there was blood when I wiped. About ten mintutes later I had the urge to go again and there was quite a bit of blood in the stool this time.
This has happened about 3 times since ( there is no pain where it actually comes out) . The last stool I did there was no blood though.
I have also had this very bad abdo pain that lasted about 4 days. The pain was right from my belly button and under my ribs. It hurt when i took a breath in. I have also had pains that come and go all along the right side of my abdomen.
What do my symtpoms mean? Do they represent anything?
P.S female teenager
Also my doc said that unlikely its hemmeroids. Plz dont reply with Ewww Gross or anything like that.

Hi! I've been having low grade fevers the past month, ranging from 37.7-38.6. I went for checkup, and the MD said my x-rays are clear, my bloodworks are fine,even my GIT exams like UA. My RBC count doesn't indicate anemia, and my WBCs are in the normal range, i had a negative test for typhoid fever. I've been having cough, but the MD said it's non-infectious. At first, she gave me carbocisteine for my cough and cefaclor, with some paracetamol for my fever. When the fever did not resolve, i was placed on a week of Loratadine, coz she thinks it might be allergy related, and ciprofloxacin. Usually, the fevers start in the afternoon, and came everyday since it started. I noticed some days when the fever occur i have pounding headache, but thought it's just an effect of the fever. I still have dry cough, and my sputum are clear. I am worried why my fevers do not resolve. I couldn't start looking for a job because of it. Please help me. thanks a lot!

My husband had a reg blood check up and found out he has a high SGPT. He's been drinking every night, but in moderation. Does this have an effect in the result? He suggested that he stop all his vitamins because he said it also affects his liver function. Is this true? Do hope you can enlighten me on this. Thanks in advance.

Walking since 9 mos. old, I noticed one day his walking was unstable, as if he just started walking 2 mos. ago. 2 days later, after talking to the dr., his head was continuously shaking and eyes rapidly & repeatedly moving back & forth. On the way to the ER, he began foaming at the mouth and squeezing his eyes shut. CT scans, urinalysis & blood test detected nothing abnormal. Especially falling asleep his body jumps repeatedly & his walking is still unstable.
He has never talked well, yet that is. At about 6 mos. he fell to the concrete reaching for me before his sister was able to strap him into his carseat.(don't judge there's more to that story). Anyway, at that time the ER dr. said he was fine. When he walks now it's as a drunkard, moving side-to-side, back and forth.

Please, I'm looking for factual, medical answers and medical direction. No foolishness please.

I had to take a urine test today but I did a few "naughty things" only 2 1/2 days ago. When I found out I had to take a urine test I drank almost 2 full bottles of water and for the sample, it was almost perfectly clear. Can urine tests detect any drugs if the urine test is clear as mine was? Thanks

Hi, I have a ear tube in my ear.
My e&t says that since i am very afraid of any sort of pain he thinks i'll move when he's taking it out and he might pierce my eardrum, etc.
so instead he has decided i'm going to have a very minor surgery where i am going to be partially asleep and i'll go to hte hospital or whatever and get this minor surgery done.
i also remember him mentioning i need a paperpatch in my ear
what does that mean?
and please inform me will i need an iv or shots? or is this too minor of a surgery i won't even need that?
please let me know!
i'm really affected to pain.
