Strep tonsillitis icd 10

Hey guys… Through mounjaro I have lost 170lbs and finally have achieved a normal A1C for the first time in my life since being classified as pre-diabetic and morbidly obese since I was 12 years old. I need an ICD code of being type a 2 diabetic or I cannot get anymore mounjaro. I am literally devastated. I have no clue what i am going to do and I am dead broke. I haven’t had the medication in a month and Have gained 10 lbs even though I eat healthy and go to the gym for 2 to 3 hours a day. If anyone knows what i can do to possible get this medication please let me know. :/

Female. 21. 5'3". Smoke weed every day through a pipe but I stopped on Sunday(6/4) when this started. On Junel, hydroxyzine for anxiety, started methylprednisolone 4mg tablets yesterday, along with pantoprazole 40mg once a day to protect my stomach. Also prescribed metronidazole vaginal gel but afraid to use it. ((Previously on azithromycin x4 pills 250mg each single dose and Rocephen(both on 6/5))) IBS, PCOS and suspected thyroid issues
I don't get sick often but when I do its hell. The last time I got sick it was covid that turned into bronchitis, before that it was hives and the flu. Well, now I've been blessed with a throat that looks like this.

Along with painful urination and a stinging/tingling anus.
I first saw my primary doctor on Monday. The painful urination had began on Saturday but it was mild, and the only appointment was Monday. On Sunday my throat began to hurt. I brought all of this up to my doctor. I confided that was afraid it was chlamydia, which may have been stupid on my part. Not that I had contact with someone I believed to have it. My internet symptom searching skills are not a virtue. I also said it could be a UTI.
Anyway, they set up my urine sample and we moved on. He decided I had strep without testing me, due to the white spots that had formed overnight on my right tonsil. and gave me a zpack as mentioned above. He told me we would treat me in a way that should knock out chlamydia and a UTI. Cool! Got my glute shot and picked up my meds same day.
The azithromycin absolutely wrecked my stomach. Not surprising as it felt the same way metronidazole had done to me in the past. I took a tums and some ibuprofen. Very very bad idea. I ended up in the ER because it felt like I was being stabbed directly in my stomach. I usually have a high pain tolerence, I didn't even go to the ER when a blood filled cyst popped on my ovary. I did visit a doctor after though, don't worry.
The ER gave me maalox and I nearly instantly felt better. It was bittersweet because I knew it probably costed me $50 for that. Sometime after this my anus started to hurt and burn. I had a virtual follow up yesterday(6/8). My doctor just happened to leave the country for 3 weeks so I had a nurse instead. God bless this lady. I told her everything and she went to go find my STI results. This would prove to be difficult because they didn't exist. They never sent it through for one.
At this point I began breaking down. My symptoms were getting worse and I was getting no where. She prescribed me methylprednisolone, pantoprazole and metronidazole vaginal gel. I've taken the first 2 but the last one I've had before, although it was oral, and it gave me horrid nausea. She suggested the bacteria was thrown off and suggested I eat fermented foods and a prebiotic. I've done everything she suggested sans the metronidazole and haven't seen improvement. The white spots on my tonsil have become thick strips. I just want to stop being in pain.
I scheduled I strep test for 2 hours from now, I will update with results.

I'm looking for some advice and just need to put my story out there. I'm a 37m. I've been on quite a journey with my prostate. All started in early March when I had a random health Fair blood test PSA of 8.5. I recently had a vasectomy in February and had a very bad strep infection too like 104 fever and chills. Got meds for strep but PSA stayed same on a repeat test after that. So go to urologist and they put me on doxycycline and have major symptoms during it was like pelvic pain, frequent urination golf ball. Anyway 2 weeks after that round of antibiotics another PSA test results of 4.8. Good reduction of almost half but still worried. Had a few DREs and all normal besides inflammation felt. But Fyi, I didn't even think to look further into it but the previous few years of blood work I had a psa of 1.4, 1.2, 1.4, and then 3. Never questioned it as it said it was normal on the paper and my doc thought the same as well but can't go back in time now. Anyway, I get a different antibiotic and was to go for another test. Also had CT scan cause doc said MRI wouldn't be covered yet. Came back normal too with evidence of prostate calcification.
I then switched urologist because I didn't like the blow off I was getting. New urologist in that group at another office sees me and he does another blood test the next week after the second round of antibiotics (he didn't like what the first urologist gave me) and he orders 3t MRI. I get a psa of 6.5 on that Tuesday and have my MRI on Sunday. Still have pelvic discomfort and pain and a weakish stream. MRI results come back when I saw him 10 days later. Now good news is MRI results are promising...PIRADS 2, no lesions, small nodules in transition zone (most likely BPH), seminal vesicles normal, lymph node normal, no prostate encapsule issues, and a prostate size of 46 and it actually said prostatitis in the peripheral zone. A pretty clean MRI. So my prostate is big for my age (apparently my grandpa too had a big prostate with no cancer ever detected).
So Doc orders Cipro this time for 10 days and I have a psa test a week after that. Fast forward to yesterday and my psa is now a 3.21 here in early June. So my PSA numbers have been all over the place. Nothing is constant and everything is in the grey area. Now I'm pretty sure I have a bigger prostate for my age but not sure how much the size would go down with the prostatitis. I still have some pelvic discomfort and maybe a slight pressure when sitting. Doc says he doesn't really want to do a biopsy but could go either way. He did the whole talks like a duck, walks like a duck analogy for prostatitis. He is having me go to pelvic floor pt and have another test just before 2 months and see me a few days later with results at my 2 months mark. I'm being proactive too but not sure if I should wait. He thinks my numbers will go down further and I agree given I still have pelvic discomfort and a slight feeling when I sit but to what extent. I read that sometimes PSA can take 6-8 weeks after antibiotics to normalize and then other studies say 14 days so it's all over. I can always cancel the biopsy if need be say my psa goes down to 1.4 or lower.
I think I should get a biopsy but not sure as to when. I was gonna wait for my inflammation to go down further either way because it's obviously not been happy and poking a bunch of holes in it and have a bigger risk of sepsis. My thoughts is to schedule a biopsy a week after my next appointment. That way I won't have to wait 2 or 3 weeks after it to get one in if I need it. Do you all think this is the right course and wait a bit for inflammation to go down further or should I just get a biopsy now? Am I being proactive enough. Lots of things point bph and prostatitis but also not. Maybe I've been asymptomatic prostatitis for years with some early bph. I sit a lot at work so there's pressure on it constantly.

Hey everyone 19 year old M. Just like the title says I’m always getting sick. The illness I get is always something to do with a sore throat, I’ve been wanting to get my tonsils removed for awhile now. My sore throats are really affecting my life, I can’t work or have a social life. This April that passed I got sick with strep throat twice in the same month. Last month I had a nice 1 month period of no sickness, come to this June, sick start of the month. And take a wild guess?!!! Sore throat! It’s seriously affecting my mental health, I can’t take this suffering anymore. I don’t know why I’m always sick, everytime I go out I always catch something. I’m a walking curse and hate my life

About 4 weeks ago, I developed this neck pain in the back of my neck, around the hairline. It’s very painful and some days very difficult to even rotate my neck. My neck feels tight as well but I assume it’s from the tension of the pain. It radiates from the spot causing headaches, primarily triggered in the back of my head. Tender to the touch, almost about where the occipital glad would be, about the bottom of my skull.
I can rotate my head with pain but the rotation is limited to a degree. Looking up is the least painful, turning left or right requires shoulder movement if I go beyond about 45*, looking down is extremely painful at first but after a few seconds it tones down.
First 2 weeks:
I tried many methods to alleviate this pain: - Changed out 4 pillows, including changing out for the couch pillow and then no pillow (which made it hurt more) - Slept on alternating sides, stomach and back - Slept on the couch - Applied stretching/yoga practices, including PT for my shoulders/neck/jaw - Ice Pack - Heating Pad - ^Combination of the two alternating - Drank more water, lemon water, cranberry juice, apple juice (hoping to try and flush out my system or whatever - Changed my diet to include more dark greens and added milk/nuts to my diet - Meditation - Hot/Cold Showers - Became more mindful of how I clean my teeth - took many different otc medicines: Allieve, Tylenol, Motrin, Flonase, Zyrtec, Musinex - Eye drops like Visine and an anti itch eye drop (was trying to “clear out” sinuses I guess?) - Muscle rub (really just help tone down the tension) - Hand massager - Physically rubbing/massaging it
Most of them helped a little bit but wasn’t affective.
Other symptoms: - ear pain in the right ear, even a sense of fullness (which was checked by an audiologist and clears of any noticeable fluids or blockage) ear was healthy - slight jaw pain (probably from the neck pain) - small, minor rash on the hairline and somewhat higher, which became itchy later on - pain in between my shoulder blades (probably because of stress) - neck stiffness
Prior to the end of the third week:
I went to a walk in/urgent care clinic and was seen by a nurse practitioner. She did a basic examination and touched my neck/checked for heat. To my knowledge the rash doesn’t have any noticeably raised bumps and is quite light in colour. She checked my ears and saw no issues. She checked my mouth and noticed my tonsils seemed a little inflamed/swollen.
She prescribed me with 4 medications: - Meloxicam 7.5 mg (helps but temporary) - Cyclobenzaprine 10 mg (helps but temporary) - Methylprednisolone 4 mg for 6 days (idk if it helped but it taste awful,lol) - Ketoconazole-hydrocortisone (which I didn’t pick up yet because my insurance doesn’t cover it and I don’t get paid until June 9); tried to substitute it for a hydrocortisone cream otc, itch relief cream and a triple antibiotic cream, allowing each one a few days to “work”
Current medications/otc: - Metformin HCL 500mg (for PCOS) - Norgestimate and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets - Biotin 1000 mcg - Super Vitamin B-Complex - Omega-3 Fish Oil 1000mcg
Recreational marijuana smoker Barely drink (1 wine glass about every two weeks, average) No other substances I’m fairly active (30minutes walks/day minimum)
I was exposed to Covid back on Mother’s Day but tested negative 3 times over a 72 hour window, 4 days from contact totaling, 7 days)
No recent tramas or new locations I visited other then the healthy center at the university. No new contacts either.
I’ve also been diagnosed with PCS but the latest concussion would have been about three years ago.

12 month old female. Prescribed keflex yesterday. No smoking/no drinking.
Has had a fever since Monday night. Fever can get up to 104. But is normally ~103. Can be brought down with Tylenol but come back once that wears off. Has vomited twice since it started, one time after crying and the other when in the car seat (also crying). No runny nose/cough.
Took her to the doctor today. Negative strep, negative Covid, no ear infection. Bagged urine sample normal other than few bacteria. Doctor put her on Keflexfor 10 days pending urine culture. Started Keflex tonight.
Can someone just reassure me that this is normal? It seems so odd to me that she can be running a fever for this many days like this.

I have some bumps on the back of my throat that disappear and reappear ever since I got really sick in early January of this year and was sick until late February of this year. I don’t know if it’s related or not, but every few days I will feel a sharp sting in my throat and snap a picture- only to find it covered in the clear fluid filled welts again. I brought them up to my doctor, and he said it was “just part of my throat” and when I tried to express my concerns (they most certainly are not ‘just part of my throat’; they look like miniature versions of the kind of blister you get on the back of your heel when your shoes are a little too loose) he got snippy with me and acted like I didn’t know what I was talking about. I even had pictures that I showed him. I’ve done some googling, but nothing looks like what I have. The closest thing I can find is cobblestone throat, but google says that is caused by “enlarged lymphatic tissue in the tonsils and adenoids”, both of which I have had removed since I was 8. I originally thought it could be strep, but google says it usually clears up in 3-5 days and this has been coming and going for a few months now. Idk if this is too much info but they are really firm and don’t pop when poked. I have another doctors appointment coming up, and I plan to bring this up, but should I be worried? I appreciate anything that anyone can tell me in advance.

-> No comorbidities, felt perfectly fine the day before. F22 175lb
Onset: Woke up 6 days ago with left side third molar pain. Pain gradually got worse; came down w/ a fever and body pain. Brushing teeth twice a day.
Day 3: left side gums swelled up, lymph node swollen, ear and throat pain. Felt like I was swallowing rocks. Got put on Amoxicillin for 5 days w/ 400 my ibuprofen. Brushing teeth twice a day
Day 4: went to first dentist (said I needed wisdom tooth pulled and bone graft), got second opinion from another dentist who said bone graft not necessary. Dentist said I have pericoronitis. A bit after, tonsils are becoming inflamed w/ white streaks. Using peroxyl mouthwash and salt water rinse to clean mouth and brushing twice a day. Can still chew food
Day 5: nearing the end of amoxicillin, went back to urgent care cause right side gums are now swollen as well, and throat is swollen and itchy. Fever is gone though. Doctor does a rapid strep (negative) and a rapid mono (negative.) At this point she gives me an antibiotic shot, sends another swab into the lab for testing. Prescribed augementin for 7 days, ibuprofen 800 mg. Washing mouth after every meal w saltwater rinse and chlorhexidine gluconate wash. Brushing twice a day. Can’t chew food at all
Day 6: ear pain gone. Canker sores feeling better from chlorhexidine wash. Gums still very swollen but it’s only been one round of augmentin. Throat not sore but sometimes it hurts to swallow or can’t swallow too many times consecutively. Front of gums swelling as well, small bump on tip of tongue. Still can’t chew food
Does anyone know what this could possibly be? Perhaps another group of strep bacteria? I was convinced it was something to do with my teeth, but now I’m sure it must be a bacterial infection of some kind. I just don’t know where it’s stemming from though.

Weird question, but did any of y’all grow up with warts, skin discoloration/patches, or bumps/scabs on your head? I have warts all over my legs and a few on my arms. I had several on my knuckles but I feel like they went away right around when I started nuvigil/effexor. I also have head scabs. I have had all of this since I was about 10 maybe? I also had strep throat all the time as a child/teenager and tonsil abscesses as an adult that were so bad that led to me having to get them removed. Did y’all experience any of these things as a child/adult and or currently? I honestly was wondering if the warts/head scabs/skin discoloration could have anything to do with narcolepsy or could have caused it? Or the strep? I also hit my head twice as a child and experienced childhood trauma, so could be anything lol

Hi all, maybe this is a bit silly but I will post anyway. Based on just experience and knowledge from you guys, what the probability is that I will need a tonsillectomy. I have had strep/tonsillitis 3-4 times a year the past three years I would say. Not 100% sure but it’s often enough, more than other people i know.
I recently had a bout of strep that did not go away with azithromycin, i am on day 5 of a 10 day augmentin cycle. My symptoms are completely gone but I still have white spots on my tonsils and I’m halfway done with the antibiotics so that worries me.
I’m really hoping that my strep goes away with these antibiotics, even if I do need to get a tonsillectomy eventually I’d rather be able to take my time preparing for it. But if this strep doesn’t go away- will they remove my tonsils even with the white spots still on there/ the sickness not completely gone?
If the strep does go away, should I still see an ENT and see if they recommend a tonsillectomy? How bad was everyone’s infection occurrences until your doctor suggested surgery?
Really don’t want to deal with the pain or anxiety of the surgery but if it improves my life that much it’s worth it 😅 sorry this is a long post and thank you to any words of wisdom

I tested positive for strep on Monday and was given an azithromycin course because I have a penicillin and amoxicillin allergy.
I am on day 4/5 of abx and my throat is still so sore and my tonsils are covered in white patches. Starting to get pain into my ears & cheekbones as well and then just general feeling unwell with fatigue and some body aches. I feel slightly better at times but then I get waves of feeling horrible again.
Is it normal for my throat to still look this way after almost completing this course of abx? Or do I need to go back to see my GP?

This is my second day using Ubuntu or Linux of any kind. Trying to get this MI25 to work. I appreciate any insight. I followed AMD instructions to the letter (I think), installing the driver for openCL and disabled something else, I forget, but the card doesn't support it. And then went through various other people's advice, to no avail. I did make some progress, because at first it wouldn't even post, then Ubuntu wouldn't do anything but give the error at the bottom of this post while loading, and now clinfo will show the card, but phoronix system-information shows it as part of the motherboard, and not as a GPU. Below it shows 1 platform, yet no GPUs or accelerators installed. Dmesg is still showing the error, but at least it boots and the card shows up somewhere. Nothing that's supposed to use the GPU is recognizing it's existence. CSM is disabled.

I just need a LITTLE help from knowledgeable Ubuntu package maintainers, please....
I'm new at dealing with package loaders, and I've recently loaded Ubuntu 20, which apparently is called "Focal ...", onto my arm64 type system. But its "doc-base" package has been giving me LOADS of problems from the very start. So I finally did this today:
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove doc-base
followed then by a fresh installation of it on a seemingly error-free packaging system at this point via:
sudo apt-get install doc-base
But the installation of it claims that it is just filled with errors as shown below this here, so is this package really in this bad of shape and why, if so, hasn't anyone excluded it from installations until it's fixed, being that it had been loaded automatically during my installation? Isn't it possible to have packages automatically excluded when they aren't currently set up correctly? I'm new at learning all about this Debian packaging stuff so simply need some confirmation here that this really is a corrupt package and that I'm not otherwise doing something wrong, and that I should therefore simply purge it again and give up on it! (Thanks):

Thank you guys for hopefully some feedback on this situation because obviously something is VERY wrong here! :)

My personal favorite over all is W59.21- Bitten by turtles, accompanied by S05.92 - injury to left orbital.

A person very close to me is currently undergoing the process of an autism diagnosis. The process is very straining because recieving a validating diagnosis for her struggles (that in my opinion obviously are autistic struggles) would mean a lot to her. She comes home from every appointment and tells me that she fears she is just faking it, doing it for attention or just not willing enough to push through.
When I hear about the screening process, I hear about things I think are both green and red flags, so I wanted to ask if you can help me judge that correctly:
1) They do multiple sessions instead of one assessment, which I have heard is very good. They also want to talk to the parents, which turns out to be difficult, but I think asking for that is also a good sign
2) They handed her a classic AQ test ("would you rather go to the library or a theater" etc...) which seems good, but she is worried about a lot of the question and needs further detail to answer them truthfully. In my eyes, this is a blatantly autistic quality about her, but she fears answering wrongly and getting an incorrect assessment in the process. I wonder what role exactly this test plays in her diagnosis, is this the normal procedure?
3) They also gave her a test I don't know the name of, its some scale by Baron-Cohen, who I have heard positives and negatives about. Seeing the name of this person, who is for example critizised by Dr. Devon Price (as far as I know) made me worry if they are using an outdated standard for diagnosis.
4) In the last test they gave her a bunch of pictures of human eyes and told her to identify what these people were feeling. It made my scratch my head a bit, because I feel like some autistic people would probably do well in tests such as these?
​

Generally, I find the whole process nerve-wracking and would be happy to hear some estimations here. In general I have heard good stuff about the people assessing her, but I recently looked through their homepage and saw that they were also offering ABA and speaking rather highly of it, which made me worry. I am scared that my friend would will go undiagnosed, which would be devastating to her. I am also planning to get a diagnosis for myself and want to know what I am getting into.
By the way, we are in Western Europe, so I guess the ICD-11 (or 10) is what defines the criteria, not the DSM-5.

Thank you so much for reading and possibly helping :)

14 Female 115 LBS No preexisting conditions Duration of complaint is 4 days Current medications are: amoxicillin 500 MG, brompheniramine-pseudoephedrine-DM 30-2-10 MG, methylPREDNISolone 4 MG
4 days ago my daughter complained of body aches and feeling unwell. She spiked a low grade fever 99.9. I treated her with DayQuil/NyQuil under the assumption it was the flu.
Yesterday she developed a nasty cough that resembles croup. A very deep chest congestion that she can’t seem to break up and cough up. After that I took her to urgent care who tested her for Flu/Covid/Strep. She was only positive for strep.
This perplexed me because her sore throat was very minor. The dr advised her and her colleagues were just discussing that morning about the strep cases with presenting respiratory symptoms as it was very abnormal.
She had a full dose of medicine last night and a morning dose today.
She is very lethargic today, won’t eat (had half a smoothie) and her cough it very bad. When can I expect this to get better for her and what should I wAtch for in the event I need to bring her back?

The terminology "favourite person" is very prevalent with borderline personality disorder. It essentially means that there is one very close and intense relationship the patient is dependent on. There is a constant need of reassurance, approval and guidance from the favorite person and they have a hard time keeping healthy relationship limits. Essentially if there is contact with said person the world is in order, if there is no contact the world of the patient breaks apart.
The ICD-10 Diagnosis of SPD states that someone with SPD may "Neither desires, nor has, any close friends or confiding relationships ( or only one )."
I am clinically diagnosed with SPD and having (at most) just one friend at a time in the above described unhealthy "favourite person" way is a common theme throughout my whole life. I was never capable of handling two or more friendships at once, even as a kid. As personality disorders are not prevalent as a child, this trait might not be related to SPD in my case. This "favourite person" thing is a huge issue for me through, as it pushed me very close to suicide numerous times.
Do you have this "one person" in your lives? How strong is your relationship with a (single) friend / family member / maybe no one?
If you have any experiences regarding that topic to share, I would love to hear them.

Wife (32F) weighs about 125 lbs and is 5'8". Started noticing fevers a couple weeks ago. After a week of this, she went to get testing done to see what was happening. The rapid test came back negative but another test they did came back positive for strep A.
Interestingly, she does not have a sore throat. Her tonsils were taken out when she was a teen so that might be the issue. We're mainly concerned about the fevers. After 5 days being on amoxicillin, she is still experiencing fevers. I've read that symptoms should be going down after 3 days.
Since she got tested a week after getting the fevers, I am wondering if this could be rheumatic fever? Or do we need stronger antibiotics? Or maybe we just need to wait until the 10 days are up.
Thanks for reading and the advice.

This started about a week or two ago, on the same day I got diagnosed with strep throat, I finished my antibiotics already but the shaking and twitching is still here.
It all started when I was laying in bed, trying to take a nap when out of nowhere my entire body just jolted and started shaking uncontrollably, it scared me awake, then random parts of my body would twitch like my leg would randomly move out of my control or my hand would, at one point my entire body just jerked back a couple times completely out of my control, I was trying my hardest to stay still but couldn’t, this lasted for about 10-20 minutes.
Ever since I’ve been experiencing more minor episodes like random noticeable twitching in my arms or legs, but today I woke up and my entire body was just twitching and shaking again, as of right now my arms are just now starting to stop.
I’ve always experienced minor episodes of things like once or twice a year my leg would randomly kick out of my control, I’ve almost kicked a couple things cause of it but since it happens only a couple times a year I never looked into it.
I’m just so confused, I want to be able to sit still again but this keeps happening and I have no clue why. Should I go to the doctor? Any ideas what could be causing this?

Hey all, I’ve just gotten certified as a CPC recently. I’d like to do inpatient coding at some point and my school program covered a series and exams on ICD-10-PCS.
I know AHIMA CCS is the popular option for inpatient coding, but I’ve been looking into alternative certs like Radiology Certified Coder (RCC). What are the pros / cons to each other - CCS or RCC? Would either one over the other be worth it AHIMA or RCCB?
