Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 , Under Extremities that would be no cyanosis, clubbing or edema. This is very standard, so put it into a macro. Also, it would be pronation and supination not suppuration. On EKG. AV block is correct, in this case meaning atrioventricular block. Then no Q (waves), and no ST-T wave changes. Either the dose for Monopril is incorrect or the doc gave you the wrong medication. The medications that are done with slashes, such as the dose of 10/12.5, means it is actually a combination of two drugs. Maxzide would be an example of this, which contains both triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide. I would flag that one as something is not correct. Under mental status the word is tangentiality. Also, it would be mood and affect flat. Margaret >>> 01/01/02 03:27PM >>> Hi need help on these please. EXTREMITIES: No cyanosis, " cleeving " , or edema. Patient does have a left lateral epicondyle with pinpoint tenderness to palpation,increase with pronation and suppuration. REVIEW OF OLD RECORDS: From urgent care. EKG shows a 1st degree " AV " block with some LVH, no " cues " , and no XTT wave changes. No old EKG to compare. The records from urgent care shows that patient has never been treated for hypertension until about one week ago. He was started on Monopril 10/12.5. (this one I also wanted someone to check and see if I transcribed it right.) MENTAL STATUS: Alert and oriented x 4. Moods affect, flat. No suicidal ideation, no " tengengality " . More to come I am sure. Thank you in advance, experience: 1 week and counting __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Billi You really shouldn't be taking an antifungal medicine without a confirmed culture , which says that infection is definitely present and which identifies the strain of fungus. Diflucan doesn't work on some strains of fungus and you may be taking it for naught. I know that my pain felt lessened when using Calendula Ointment on the vulvar skin. I used it twice a day - at night just before bed and don't wear underwear and than again in the a.m. Call the doc... don't wait until the 11th - that's too long. Good luck Dusty -----Original Message-----From: obies123@...

I go back to her on the 11th to see how the first treatment is going...I am taking diflucan every other day......... Now my problem is that in the last two days it has gotten much worse. Is there anything I can do until my next dr appt.? it is mostly itching/burning Billi*****END OF MESSAGE/REMOVE WHEN REPLYING*****http://groups.yahoo.com/group/VulvarDisordersto search our archive or view our files.*** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
