| . | I would like to complain about abdominal cramps which last already for about 3 months. though there are times that I dont have adbominal cramps, but most of the time almost everyday. I notice also that every time I have abdominal cramps I have loose bowel movement (LBM). Before I just thought that I'm hungry but even after few minutes after eating I still feel the abdominal cramps or pain. I also have itchy skin, but there sometimes i feel from different part of my body mostly arms, legs, fingers, back and back of neck. during night and early morning, my lower neck(front) upto upper chest is reddish. I can draw a line and it will mark a red line. There are times there are tiny pin head red spots, but when I show it to the doctor, According to them it's only hemmangioma. But now adays, It's looks like a small pimple. Occasionally, I have some strep throat. I went to a Allergylleogy/Immunology. They just give ms TELFAST for the itchy skin and OMEPRON for the abdominal cramps which I took for two weeks. I also took BETNETON( containssteriods)which I took only for 1week.
Prior to taking these medicine, a month of feeling pain in my lower left of my adomen my doctor advise me to have an ultrasound. This is the conclusion; MILD HEPATOMEGALY WITH FATTY CHANGES, gr. i-ii. nORMAL GALLBLADDER, pancreas, spleen , aorta and bile ducts. Normal size kidneys with nephrolithiases. normal ureters, bladder and prostate gland size. doctor says no need to drink for glastones even for liver
please advise | |

If they are flat, they are probably telangiectasia.
Have you had a blood test to check your liver enzymes? Hepatomegaly means that your liver is slightly enlarged. My liver enzymes are often high, but in my case, the ultrasound never sees any abnormality. Liver inflamation can cause generalized itching, and diaharrea. You need to cut the fat in your diet, and make sure not to drink alcohol. Your liver is already on the verge of trouble. Autoimmune hepatitis is what I have. In my case it's part of a systemic disease. I also have telangiectasia.
Nephrolithiases are kidney stones. Although you usually hear about back pain with kidney stones, they can often cause abdominal cramping. Together, all your symptoms could be a sign of systemic disease, although there is the possibility that they are not connected. |

| . | Thanks for your comments, yes you're right they are flat so it might be telangiectasia. Please note that it only small smaller than pinhead. Maybe I have atleast 5 of and some are small red spot which is easily disappear.
What's the relation of my strep throat. What do you systemic disease?
regarding the gallstone, my doctor told me that it just small no need to take medicine. They did not give me also medicine for the liver they just told me to stop drinking. Is there any relation to the sexually related disease or something. Please advise, I'm getting worried. |
