Some doctors may diagnose you with different illnesses due to the symptoms. Some people might only show one or two symptoms and have this disease. That is why it is very hard for doctors to diagnose you if you have Lupus. Your doctor will check for Lupus by examining you and asking you questions about your medical history and common symptoms and doing some urine and blood tests. It is easier for your doctor to diagnose Lupus if you have the most common symptoms and your blood has certain proteins.
Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disease. It affects some of your red blood cells by making them shaped abnormally. While normal red blood cells are round, Sickle cell anemia causes some of my red blood cells to be shaped like a sickle, or other deformed shapes. The doctors discovered that I had this disorder by performing "Hemoglobin electrophoresis". This disease does not affect me mentally.
I do not want my disorder to control my whole life. One day I would like to be able to have my disorder under control. I mostly get angry more than anything else I get sad or upset some times but my anger usually gets the best of me. Another reason I feel as if my disorder is complicated is because I have to take my medication on time everyday if I miss a day or take it at the wrong time than the medication won’t be as affective as it usually would and than I might end up having mood swings and might end up bugging out on someone and might even get into some type of trouble. I also don’t like my disorder because I end up getting mad over little things and than I get into trouble and trouble comes with fines and / or jail time and I’m to old to be acting up anymore and its also not fair to my mother because I don’t have a job right now so she would be the one having to pay for the out come of my mistake because I got angry over something small or even something stupid.
Hemoglobin is a protein inside red blood cells which carry oxygen all over the body an gives the blood its red color. When people have sickle cell anemia the abnormal hemoglobin sticks together when it give oxygen to the tissue. People who only inherit one sickle cell gene from there parents will not have sickle anemia, but they will carry the sickle cell trait. When people carry the sickle cell trait they have no symptoms, but like people with sickle cell anemia they can pass this trait on to
Most people who have mild to moderate disease will be treated by a rheumatologist, who specializes in the diseases of joints and muscles. However, if your lupus causes kidney problems, you will also see a Nephrologist, a specialist in diseases of the renal system. If you have rashes or lesions, you will see a dermatologist, who specializes in diseases that affect the skin. Because lupus can cause damage to any part of the body, other specialists may be necessary. Such as a Cardiologist, who specializes in heart problems, or a Neurologist, who specializes in problems that affect the brain and nervous system, or a Perinatologist, who specializes in high-risk
However it is very hard to group certain symptoms with a certain disease or syndrome as many conditions overlap. For example the common cold and the flu share several symptoms but the flu is much serious and can make you ill for weeks. Another example would be someone who wasn’t eating. Not eating/weight loss is a symptom of depression but it is also a symptom of anorexia. It is very hard for a psychiatrist to diagnose any disease or syndrome because of this.
These two conditions can cause bloating, colicky pain, and jaundice or the yellowing of the skin. Gall bladder disease is often treated by the surgical removal of the gall bladder. This ultimately prevents the recurrence of any form of gall bladder disease as, obviously, the gall bladder has already been removed. Gall bladder disease may also both be treated and prevented through lifestyle and dietary changes. The best way to take care of the gall bladder nutritionally is by following the gall bladder diet.
Too much salt can cause your body to create kidney stones or a hard mass formed by clumps of calcium and sodium. Many of these kidney stones have sharp edges causing it to become very painful to pass one through the urinary system. The shape edges of the stones can not only cause tears along the inside of the ureters, but due to the blockage of the urinary system it could cause kidney disease such as Crohns disease. Some of the types of kidney stones are calcium oxilate stones and uric acid stones. Lowering the limit of sodium or salt consumption can only benefit us.

Virtually every medication presents some risk of undesirable side effects, sometimes even serious ones. Doctors consider the potential benefits and risks to each patient before prescribing medications, but even then if taken for long periods of time they can have an effect on your ability to see clearly. What makes it worse is that people who abuse drugs might not understand how these factors may affect them or that prescription drugs do more than cause a high, help them stay awake, help them relax, or relieve pain. Another problem is that many drug abusers take more than one drug at a time and this can cause serious consequences, one of which is death. Every 14 minutes someone dies because of prescription pills.
