What could tremors, dizziness after BC pills intake for painful periods indicate?
Patient: my 14 year old daughter was born with gastroschisis and corrected with surgery. No problems until this past year. After periods of severe stomach cramping and pain and nausea, she had her gall bladder removed this past February. The surgeon also freed up her right fallopian tube as well as removed adhesions. The surgery corrected most of the abdominal cramping; however, she still has very painful periods which to date, birth control is not providing much relief. While on her period, she experiences painful unrination. We believed that the new birth control was the cause of the headache she has had for 4 weeks; however, her doctor doesn t think so. Dizziness and shaking hands accompany her headaches. Recent CT Scans didn t show any problem with kidney stones. She has had many tests but still isn t feeling any better. The symptoms and list of tests is long. I am tempted to take her to ER just so they will do another round of tests all at once. Doctor: Being born with gastroschisis is a major malformation with lifelong consequence potential. Adhesions are one of the reasons. Other hidden malformations are possible.That is to say, her pains and complains may be long or lifetime, without it meaning incomplete medical management of her troubles.I´m sure you can find a doctor who can view her problem with a fresh perspective considering all factors, not only physical, and review every system for interactions.An ER will not do that.Best of lucks,Dr. Lino, MD
