No my bleeding occured too early.
Day 20.
So will ectopic pregnancy show positive on P.test kits?
When is the earliest I can test? -
Early bleed could be due to the effect of the drug on the endometrium, which means you are not out of the woods yet with regard to pregnancy. But if you get a normal period next , than uterine pregnancy can be excluded. The pregnancy test will be positive by 6th week of conception.
Nothing to worry yet though...sit tight -
next period meaning?
another 3-4weeks from now,
or i still keep counting, which i left 8-10days to the next period? (i.e is this bleeding counted as period?) -
next normal period...if the expected date of your next period come without normal menses, you should see your GP for a pregnancy test.Originally posted by postinor2:next period meaning?

just wana ask..
to the best of your knowledge, is there any possible cure for spinocerebellar degeneration? -
There are quite a number of different types, with different genetic aberrations. I presume you are thinking of Freiderich's ataxia?Originally posted by alexkusu:just wana ask..

No cure as far as I know..perhaps in time gene therapy might be a possible approach.. -

i am having a mild PID, radial bulging type.
surgery is being suggested by my doc. just want to know waht are the types of treatment available, risks and costs? -
Treatment ranges from physiotherapy, heat treatment and traction for the backache, medication to control pain and reduce inflammation to surgery to remove the prolapsed disc. The risks vary according to the treatment and the location of the slipped disc. Painkillers are very safe although too much of it can lead to stomach bleeds. Physiotherapy and traction are of course extremely safe unless your therapist was trained by the Spanish InquisitorsOriginally posted by bismarck:i am having a mild PID, radial bulging type.

As for surgery, there is always a risk of paralysis but that risk is extremely small...I haven't known of anyone personally who suffered that complication. Your surgeon will be able (and required by law) to explain the complication rate of whatever treatment in your particular case, taking into account the site of the disc, severity of the prolapse and any co-morbidities you might have.
Much depends on how mild it is and the impact it has on your lifestyle. To a sedentary retiree, a moderate PID with pain that can be controlled by medication may be tolerable whilst a young man may find mild PID a significant impediment to his activity...you chasing girls up the hill?

physio is useless for me. gives me more and more pain each time i go back for sessions. OTC painkillers are like m&ms, totally useless.Originally posted by oxford mushroom:As for surgery, there is always a risk of paralysis but that risk is extremely small...I haven't known of anyone personally who suffered that complication.
