10 Symptoms you can't ignore

By Dr. Orrange December 27, 2008 3:22pm 22 Comments

DrOrrange

There is no uncertainty when it comes to crushing substernal chest pain, severe abdominal pain or a fainting episode, get yourself to the ER or call 911. There are symptoms, however, that fall into a middle ground and you wonder: should I bother the doctor on call? As an Internal Medicine Doctor I am often surprised when patients tell me …

What really works for the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome

By Dr. Orrange December 17, 2008 12:11am 27 Comments

DrOrrange

We have all been through the launch of expensive medications like Zelnorm for Irritable bowel syndrome only to then see them pulled from the market, making all of us skeptical that anything works. Most patients with irritable bowel syndrome are managed by primary care doctors and there is an ongoing search for effective treatments that are safe, …

DrOrrange

Many of you know the feeling, the burning sensation behind the breastbone, worse after you've eaten. You might even have some regurgitated acidic material in your mouth.

My Bedrest Journey

Sunday, October 5, 2008 | A General Update story

Hi Everybody,
I am feeling emotionally ok today. My back is killing me as the bedrest continues to put pressure on my spine.
I am trying to keep a positive attitude. Trying to be positive because negativity definately make my immune system weaker and unable to fight the mono and lyme.
Hopefully, I will be able to be more mobile in 4 weeks. If not, I will continue to do what I am do...

She has a wife who can't do anything and she is so patient and loving and I am so grumpy and in pain... &n...

I'M OK, FEELING BETTER

Monday, September 29, 2008 | A Breaking News story

I JUST REALIZED THAT I CAN'T HELP PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO BE HELPED.
I CAN ONLY HELP THOSE WHO WANT THE HELP AND WHO ARE GOING TO TURN AROUND AND DO SOMETHING WITH THE ADVICE.
I AM FREE NOW. I AM FREE.
I WILL WORK ON MYSELF AND WORK WITH PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY WANT TO IMPROVE. EVERYONE ELSE WILL HAVE TO EXCUSE ME FOR A WHILE.

TODAY HAS BEEN A VERY HARD DAY.
I AM WONDERING AFTER ALL IF I WILL BE HELPED ON DAILY STRENGTH OR JUST EMOTIONALLY DRAINED. I TRY TO HELP OTHERS, BUT I AM FEELING LIKE OTHERS JUST DON'T WANT TO BE HELPED.
IT BREAKS MY HEART AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Gastritis Information

Gastritis is a medical term for inflammation of the lining of the stomach. It means that white blood cells move into the wall of the stomach as a response to some type of injury. Gastritis does not mean that there is an peptic ulcer or cancer. It is simply inflammation — either acute or chronic. Gastritis has many underlying causes, from infection with the bacterium H. pylori, bile reflux, or excessive consumption of alcohol or certain foods or drugs like aspirin.

Gastritis can be healed by using medicines that reduce stomach acid, avoiding some foods, alcohol and medicine.
