Anyone Know....
Posted: 04-24-07 15:25pm

...something called Bethay syndrome? (totally not sure of the spelling...) I can't find anything about a "Bethay syndrome" on google so i presume it's spelt wrongly. Does anyone know anything about it?

cos i went to the gynae today cos the lumpies on my doodah aren't any better with the antibiotics and apparently that is what I've got...

I'm going to hospital tomorrow for a general anaesthetic so they can do a biopsy and also, the gynae took some blood today...it's all getting a bit serious for my liking Sad however, the gynaecologist did prescribe some cream which is like...my new best friend cos it numbs all pain in that area Very
Happy

Anyway, sorry for any TMI Embarassed

If you could try to spell how the word sounds maybe I can find some information for you. You could also just call your doctor's office and ask how it's spelled.

I'm going to try to spell it other phonetic ways and you tell me which one sounds more right.

Bethey, Bithay, Bithey, Beethay, Beethey, Bethei?

God, I really don't know...they all sound about right! But i looked them all up on google and still nothing Sad it's really getting to me!! I wanna know what this syndrome entails but if I dont know its name then i cant...usually google is good at correcting a spelling mistake but nothing seems to be right.

well to tell you the truth, other than blind loop syndrome...that's the only syndromes that I believe exist; unless this "bethay" has another name?

There are many many syndromes aren't there?! Like Turner's syndrome, downs syndrome...loads.

I don't think it has another name...it just probably has a weird spelling and isn't spelt like it sounds.

well I checked the national medical library, and those three syndromes that I listed are the only syndromes listed under 'B'. maybe it's one of those names with a z before the b. Surprised

Could is have been a bartholin's gland cyst?

Don't be afraid to ask your doctor questions while you are there or even have her write things down for you so that you can look them up later.

nah, that's what a nurse practitioner diagnosed so she put me on flucloxacillin which is an antibiotic but it hasn't worked at all which is why i went to see a gynae today and he said it is probably this bethay thing.

So my search before was quite broadened, so I did a search with a little more depth... here's all the syndromes with a 'B':

Basal cell nevus syndrome
Bassen-Kornzweig syndrome
Battered child syndrome
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome
Bernard-Soulier syndrome
Blind loop syndrome
Bonnevie-Ullrich syndrome
Bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome
Briquet's syndrome
Budd-Chiari syndrome
Burning tongue syndrome

those are just the syndromes. here's the two listed I've looked off of...
ht tp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/ency clopedia_B-Bk.htm
h ttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/enc yclopedia_Bl-Bz.htm

they long lists... Rolling Eyes enjoy!

I think I found it guys!! My spelling and pronounciation were both pretty off lol.

It's called Behcet's Syndrome! I'm just reading up on it and I cant believe that's what I might have Sad it sounds awful.

I should contact them and tell them to update their list. Confused

**edit**
