Question 1

I'm having a tough time dealing with this really dry mouth and throat, but it only seems to happen at night. I'm actually feeling super tired but can't sleep because of my anxiety over it. Could having a dry mouth be something serious or dangerous? And who should I reach out to for help with this? It's already 5:30 in the morning and I haven't slept at all, plus my tongue looks all white.

Question 2

I've been having some issues with high eosinophil levels - they were over 10 last week, and two months ago they were at 21. After taking a 10-day course of hetrazan, my weakness has gotten a bit better, but now I'm dealing with some diarrhea symptoms...

Accepted Answer

With a significant reduction in eosinophils from 21% to 5% after the Hetrazan course, it's likely that the treatment was effective in addressing the underlying parasitic infection; as your body recovers, you may start feeling fresher and more energetic, but it's essential to monitor your symptoms, including diarrhea, and follow up with your healthcare provider to ensure complete recovery and to rule out any other underlying conditions

Accepted Answer

Abdominal cramping is a common finding in patients who are taking duphaston. It is however advisable to consult your gynecologist for further evaluation.

I swallowed a small amount of betadine gargle by accident. Should I be worried or is it nothing to be concerned about?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you're experiencing a dry, non-productive cough, which can be caused by irritation in the throat or airways. If you're feeling chest discomfort or tightness when coughing, it's important to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues, especially if it's persisting for a few days. In the meantime, staying hydrated and using a soothing cough suppressant may help.
