Although your menopause is kicking in at an unusually early age, high levels of FSH are normal during menopause. This is due to the lack of ovulation which lowers FSH indirectly, so your system tries to get you to ovulate after you have quit doing so. Think of it like an anaconda squeezing the life out of its prey. The more the prey wiggles, that harder the snake squeezes.

Dear Mdm.

A sore arm for six months after a vaccine is unusual, but not unknown. The best way I know of to be rid of such pain is with low-level laser therapy. You should be able to find a provider of such in your area. When getting the booster, I suggest you get the shot in your other arm, and pray that the pain subsides after some hours. If not, the same holds for such pain.

Stomach tenderness?

It is perfectly normal to be tender in a spot that has been hit, and it is far from always there is a visible sign. It will pass.

Bruising very easily?

It sounds like you have a skin condition that should be assessed by your doctor and/or a dermatologist. Perhaps your GP has an explanation.

If the swelling is only in the left leg, then it is not heart failure causing the swelling. The elevated D-dimer has me worried too. It could be that the clot was not defined when the hospital did the CT scan. If I were the duty physician, I would have ordered an ultrasound exam to make sure.

Tums is an over-the-counter adolescent drug which Is the amount of acid in your stomach. Eliquis is anti thrombosis drug that works by inhibiting factor Xa in the coagulation system. This increases coagulation time, thereby “thinning” the blood. Meanwhile, it is important to know why you are taking an anticoagulation medicine. There must be something that you are not telling me that conditions you're taking of this medicine.

There are many different blood pressure (BP) lowering drugs on the market. The target is to get your diastolic BP (the lower figure) under 100 mm Hg and lower your systolic BP (the higher figure) to under 150 mm Hg. Atenolol is a rather unspecific beta blocker and Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor. You should have a talk with your GP about other options, such as Angiotensin II inhibitors, calcium channel blocks and diuretics.
