Patient discussion about Miss.

Q. I have missed 2 periods and had my tubes tied. What could be wrong? I went to the doctor and she didnt even do an exam. She said dont worry until I have missed for 6 months.

A. my wife had her tubes tied a year ago, she gets her period every 3 months,and they are usally pretty short. i wouldnt worry.

Q. can a woman ger pregnant if she misses a few birth control pills? my girlfriend missed 2 this month and now her period is a bit late. should I be woried?

A. Even on birth control it is possible to get pregnant. Birth control pills are not always 100% perfect in preventing pregnancy. Has she ever missed any pills in the past? Her body may be trying to re-adjust and that can be a reason why she is "late."

Q. If I miss on my massage for a week the pain returns back. What else I can do to reduce the pain? My unbearable pain never gets reduced. My medicines have been changed many times. Every change reduces some amount of pain but continuing them further would increase the pain. I am dependent on the regular massage to control my pain. If I miss on my massage for a week the pain returns back. What else I can do to reduce the pain?

A. I would suggest trying the food changes, A lot of people with Fibromyalgia seem to be agreeing on those things. Might I also suggest warm or hot baths, a showerhead with a massage feature so when you take a shower it also helps massage tried achy muscles, relaxion tecniques, you might want to look into yoga and those massagers you pick up at department stores that run off electricy not batteries seem to work better. These could be used in between massage treatments.
Good Luck!
