  1. My doctor has took me off pregablin 4 days ago as i have a rash which is now blistering. How long before it clears my system and the rash clears?
  2. I am a almost 67 yr. old female, with Post Polio Syndrome. In the past year, I have noticed that I require a lot of sleep. I have had my physical from my heart doctor and family doctor, and all is well. My only theory is that I am very active, and then it catches up with me, and the motor neurons are continuing to be over used and it is my body telling me to really take it easy. I have no prior notice that my body is going to have a meltdown. I can easily sleep 10-12 hrs. per night. I am a night person, so if i go to bed at 11:00, I will sleep to 11:00 AM. I don’t feel bad, just that I have to sleep and rest.
  3. My son is 7. He has encopresis (his accidents have slowed to about once a week now). He falls a lot, clumsy, runs into objects like curbs or shelves at a store. His falling is a daily occurrence. He fell last night and fell three more times when trying to get off of the ground. I had to physically help him up. He is extremely sensitive to noise, as a baby he would cover his ears and cry if there was a loud noise. He has normal hearing according to the ENT doctors here. He tells me that the “fast cars” distract him at school (he can hear the cars going down the street outside of his school). If he gets close to my mouth or nose he will tell me that I am breathing loudly. He tells his friends to get out of his face or covers his ears because they are “giving him a headache” or just too loud. He has problems putting his feelings/thoughts into words. A lot of times we are left trying to interpret what he says or asking him questions trying to figure out what’s going on with him….for instance he was hit at school once and came home with a black eye. He told me one story, told his teacher a different story and told his sister another. We still don’t know who hit him but he knew that he was hit and that it wasn’t from falling. He gets upset and cries over strange things like being told to go to the bathroom before we leave for the park. He gets frustrated when things aren’t going right. He is easily fatigued. He is on the lazy side, his arms and legs are “floppy” if you carry him he doesn’t hold on he just hangs. He is constantly moving or fidgeting. He makes good grades in school but he has to be constantly told to do his work. I find myself trying to get his attention a lot, especially when we are in the car and I cannot be close to him or turn around and look at him. We are being sent for a neurological evaluation but I am curious what these symptoms are indicative of??
  4. I always have little white Sputum in my throat (not much thicker).Even if i try to spit it out or swallow, again it will be there.. Some time I hardly try to spit it out and it will end up with vomitting tendency. I do not have any other breathing problem or sick. This started about 6-7 months back.. This is irritating me lot. Can you please help me to solve it out?
  5. Do I need to take Claritin every day for my allergies?

I woke up several times throughout the night covered in diarrhea, even when I am awake its like I cannot control my bowels, not even long enough to get to the toilet. I’m only 20 years old and I’m sure this isn’t normal. Also, its like water.

Profuse watery diarrhea is most certainly not normal in patients of any age. The differential diagnosis for diarrhea includes allergic, anatomical, autoimmune, endocrine, infectious, and neurologic abnormalities. From the history that you have provided, it is nearly impossible to even narrow down the diagnosis. However, acute onset of watery diarrhea could very well be infectious or allergic in origin as the other causes don’t normally manifest as acute as you are describing.

Either way, this situation is best handed by your primary doctor as (s)he can be able to accurately work up your condition and treat you. As an accurate medical history is the paramount in helping your physician diagnose your condition, be sure to inform him/her of any other symptoms, recent travel, recent lifestyle changes (diet, pets, living/working conditions, etc.), recent fevers/illnesses, current medications, current medical/surgical history, etc.
