Dear Members,

Our WebMD communities are a wonderful place where members find friendship, support, insight and share ideas. However, there are occasions when a post that is made violates WebMD's Terms and Conditions . We rely on our members to help WebMD maintain a safe and comfortable environment where everyone feels at home.

Please know that no other member will know that you've made a report, nor does reporting a post automatically mean it will be removed.
Here are the kinds of posts about which we're concerned:

Spam
Advertising
Personal Attacks (disagreement is NOT an attack)
Copyright Infringement
Inappropriate Member Nicknames
Use of inappropriate slang and/or masked/veiled profanity
Members discussing their personal physicians by name
Members who identify themselves as under 13 year of age
Too much personally identifying information (phone numbers, home addresses, etc)
Posts containing links to inappropriate sites (pornography, etc.)
Posts which are nothing more than erotica or soliciting cyber sex.
Someone planning suicide and needs our help

<br/ ><br/ >The best way to handle any such post on our communities is to not reply (other than when someone is in crisis). Instead, you can help your community by alerting the WebMD Community Moderator staff via the "Report This" link found below each post. You even have the opportunity to explain why you are reporting something. The moderator staff will receive that report and will review the post to determine whether or not it violates the WebMD Terms and Conditions or if the person needs crisis intervention. If the message is in violation of our rules, it will be removed along with any replies.
Please keep in mind that you should only report posts that you feel are violations of WebMD's Terms and Condition or needs a moderator's crisis intervention. Do not report posts simply because you disagree with the information contained within another member's post.

Thank you for helping to keep our WebMD communities on track. It really does "take a village," and we appreciate everyone who helps us to keep our communities a great place to gather together in our quest to stay happy and healthy.

Yours in Health,

Posted by susiemargaret

hello, A243 --

i am in the middle of similar problems, except with a different company and different meds. my health care ins switched mail-order pharmacies, and since then every order has been a nightmare -- the old mail-order pharmacy did not transfer all of my Rx to the new mail-order pharmacy, i've had to get new Rx for anything i take that is a controlled substance, they sent liquid instead of tablets for two Rx, they didn't give the correct phone numbers for faxing in an Rx, etc., etc. now i dread it when i have to call them and straighten out yet one more thing!

i don't know what the answer is for this, except to try and be patient with the people on the phone; it's not their fault they weren't properly trained, and i'm sure they are as frustrated as you are. i've decided that if there is one more screwup, i will write to both my employer (thru which i have my health care ins) and probably the head of the dept for fulfilling Rx at the mail-order pharmacy (or even the pres of the mail-order pharmacy or the board of directors), and complain. i have only about 20% faith that either of these will get any action, tho!

whenever i call and talk with someone, i keep a record of when i called, the person(s) i talked with, their dept, what my Q was, what their answer was, what extra steps i had to take, etc., etc. this doesn't give me very much satisfaction, but it does create a paper record. i also ask the person to read back to me the info we've exchanged, esp phone numbers, name of meds, etc., etc.

i comfort myself by believing -- probably foolishly -- that for every mess i have to straighten out, that is one less mess that i will have to straighten out later! surely there can't be an infinite number of messes!

anyway, i send my sympathies and hope that all will fall into place soon.

Posted by susiemargaret

hello, L --

i am not a medical person (see PS1), but from what i have been able to find, you may want to consult a different dr.

goulard's extract is a watery solution of lead subacetate (PS2) with antiseptic, antiinflammatory, and astringent properties; it is named after its inventor, the french surgeon thomas goulard (PS3). until the early 20th century, it was used for bruises, sprains, blisters, and other types of wounds. however, its use has been generally abandoned because of the development of more effective astringents, the possibility of lead poisoning thru its absorption at raw spots, and concern that it may cause cancer.

you may want to ask about pain in your testicle in our men's health community, http://exchanges.webmd.com/mens-health-community , where there is an expert on-board, or in our urology community, http://exchanges.webmd.com/urology .

finally, you may also want to take a look at the webMD articles on testicular disorders, http://men.webmd.com/testicular-pain-and-injuries-directory?catid=1006 (a list of articles is shown under the green title "medical reference").

i hope you will improve soon.

PS1 -- i welcome, solicit, and indeed beg for correction, amendment, or replacement of any inaccuracies in this post.

PS2 -- an acetate is a salt of acetic acid; this has a particular chemical meaning, but even tho i've skipped back and forth among several websites, i can't seem to simplify the definition beyond this. the terms keep getting more complicated instead of less! i welcome elucidation from someone more knowledgeable!

PS3 -- the info i've found has the date 1784 associated with it; i don't know if this is when it was invented or the birthdate of its inventor, or what.View Thread

Posted by susiemargaret

hello, D --

before i get to my -- admittedly -- quickie internet search info, let me refer you to several previous webMD community discussions of hypocalcemia, because they contain some preliminary background info (see PS1) and because i think you will benefit from others' experience that we already have access to --

-- "hypocalcemia," http://forums.webmd.com/3/chronic-disease-and-disability-exchange/forum/348 ;

-- "hypocalcemia," http://forums.webmd.com/3/chronic-disease-and-disability-exchange/forum/793 ; and

-- "hypothyroidism," http://forums.webmd.com/3/chronic-disease-and-disability-exchange/forum/347 .

if you think you might be interested in participating in research on meds for hypocalcemia, a list of clinical trials is at http://clinicaltrials.gov/search/open/condition=%22Hypocalcemia%22 ; it also shows whether the researchers are still recruiting volunteers.

the primary treatment for chronic hypocalcemia is oral calcium supplements (PS2), which may take the form of calcium carbonate (PS3), calcium chloride, calcium citrate, calcium gluconate, or calcium lactate. the most commonly used calcium after thyroid surgery is calcium carbonate, but some people have trouble absorbing that and may want to try calcium gluconate or some other incarnation instead. stay away from calcium phosphate salts.

calcitriol -- active vitamin D (PS4) -- may also be used to supplement calcium; it promotes calcium absorption in the intestines and calcium retention in the kidneys. however, because calcitriol is expensive and has to be taken several times/day, other vitamin D formulations are often substituted for it, for example, ergocalciferol and dihydrotachysterol (PS5). ergocalciferol is the least expensive choice and is long-acting.

if your serum magnesium is low, your hypocalcemia will not improve unless the magnesium deficiency is treated as well, so you need to check on your magnesium level.

finally, and this is astonishing to me, but the NIH genetic and rare diseases info center will apparently answer individual Qs about certain conditions, hypocalcemia among them, http://rarediseases.info.nih.gov/GARD/EmailForm.aspx?PageID=4 .

let me add one more thing that i think is more important than anything else i have said here -- if you feel that your dr is not taking you seriously, perhaps it is time to get a second opinion or find a different dr altogether. there is no point in your spending time, energy, and money on someone who does not listen to you or is not responsive to your concerns.

i send you caring thoughts and hope this helps. please keep us posted on how you are doing.

Posted by susiemargaret

hello, L --

below is an explanation of the relevant science as i have extrapolated it from an admittedly quickie internet search tonight. however, you should keep in mind that i am not a medical person (see PS1). you also need to know that i am assuming your diagnosis is pneumonia; is this correct?

when the body is infected with bacteria or some other toxin, the immune system produces antibodies as a defense. IgG stands for "immunoglobulin G," the most plentiful class of antibodies. it appears in the blood in response to bacteria, viruses, fungi, and foreign particles.

to determine the presence/level of bacteria or other toxins in the blood, various tests will measure the presence/level of antibodies; these tests are called antibody assays (PS2). from what i understand, the term "antibody assay" is a blanket reference to tests that measure antibodies; it does not refer to a particular brand or test technology.

chlamydophila pneumoniae (also denominated c. pneumoniae, previously called chlamydia pneumoniae) is a particular kind of bacteria that can be identified thru IgG antibody assays. tests for chlamydophila pneumoniae are used primarily to diagnose pneumonia but are sometimes indicative of other diseases as well. however, because the term "IgG antibody assay" does not refer to a specific brand or test technology, it is impossible to report the accuracy of any of these assays unless you know the specific test that was used. do you?

the preferred treatment to combat chlamydophila pneumoniae is 100 mg doxycycline -- an antibiotic -- twice/day; however, since your dosage makes you nauseated, you might want to ask your dr about a second approved protocol, which is 100 mg doxycycline once/day (do not change your dosage without talking with your dr first). other antibiotics (PS3) can also be used to treat chlamydophila pneumoniae, so you might want to ask your dr about those in addition.

i don't know what to advise you about the necessity of getting an x-ray or other type of diagnostic radiograph (PS4). do you have some doubt about your diagnosis? a chest x-ray can confirm a diagnosis of pneumonia. other tests often used to confirm a diagnosis of pneumonia include blood cultures, urine tests, sputum tests, chest CTs.

i send you caring thoughts and hope you will be feeling better soon. please write back if i have misunderstood your inquiry, and i'll give it another go-round!

-- susie margaret

PS1 -- i welcome, solicit, and indeed beg for correction, amendment, or replacement of any inaccuracies in this post.

PS2 -- chlamydophila trachomatis (also denominated c. trachomatis, previously called chlamydia trachomatis) is a particular kind of bacteria that can be identified thru IgG antibody assays; tests for chlamydolphila trachomatis are often used to detect sources of infection in women or men that might be interfering with fertility.

PS3 -- my personal experience is that antibiotic therapy for any illness always causes a yeast infection, but i don't know if that happens with everyone. in any event, yeast infections can easily be treated with over-the-counter meds.

PS4 -- a radiograph is the image produced by x-rays, gamma rays, or other types of radiation.View Thread
