Health - 17 July 2006

My mother's husband has had an ear infection for a couple weeks, and it is so gross, it is oozing constantly. He saw a doctor who told him his eardrum is punctured and infected. He gave him anti biotics. But, now he stopped taking them because he thinks the antibiotics are causing half of his face to be paralized. I told him that he needs to keep taking the antibiotics and maybe see a specialist. I have never heard of anti-b's causeing someone to look like they had a stroke. I told him that maybe the infection was swollen and pressing on a nerve and causeing this. Any doctors or nurses out there seen this before. It's very scarey to see him like that.

Someone asks how to kill themself, and you give them true answers!! These people are obviously asking, probably hoping that someone will try to help them, even though they say that they don't want help. You people are sick for giving them a way to commit suicide!

When you are relaxed.....does it lay up or down in your underwear? I am pretty sure most of the men I dated before I married him were on the down and he is insists that is nuts (no pun intended) and that is not comfortable.

I have severe upper stomach pain. I have been to the doctor and she has put me on some medicine to help with my nerves. I am only 24 years old but every morning i wake up with a severe stomach ache. When I get sick it is just white acid. I do not have an ulcer for sure. She gave me some morning sickness medicine that works in the afternoon but does not even begin to cut the pain in the mornings does anyone have any ideas. Also I have had diareah since this has started. Both doctor and myself seem to be out of answers. And work is getting frustrated. Thanks

To those with bipolar disorder. If you have it does it mean you will have to take drugs for the rest of your life? My brothr's doctor told us he will take it only for 3 years, however 3 years passed and now he's saying he will have to be on some kind of meds for the rest of his life. He was off the meds for like 5 weeks, and he was fine, but now he prescribed him someting else. I don;t want him to take it anymore. They are killing his spirit.

I have a tea called Pasak Bumi or Tongkat Ali which is made from indonesian tree root. It effects hormones and boosts testosterone in males up to 400% by scientific study, but It usually makes you very moody, more easily angered, but in a natural state perphaps depressed, similarly to the effect of those who go onto steroids and kill themselves of the depression induced by the hormone imbalance. No matter what my state though, controversly happy or sad, I always feel most pleasant and content after a minimal amount ( a few minutes, perphaps 3 to 5 and up) of deep breathing, concentrating on my breath. Has anyone else experiences these profound effects on the human psyche?

my eyes hurt sometimes when there is a glare off of something. it is usually not even a bright glare, either, but my eyes hurt! is it something from UV rays or something? i also have a stigamatisam(sp) so maybe that has something to do with it.
