Doctors have never been able to answer my question and they don't deem it important...

Not all the time...but sometimes, after I eat particular foods (not sure what triggers it), I get pain in my jaw and tongue, so severe, you can't talk, you can't move your mouth or swallow without feeling someone is stabbing you at the base of your tongue.

It has only gotten worse the older I get.

Do you have that pain? What did the doctors tell you it was?

I have primary Dysmenorrhea. I was told by a number of people that if I excercise a little bit everyday, when my period comes, the cramps and other symptoms won't be as bad. Are there certain types of excercises I should be doing that work better than others?

Hi, i am 31 years old and my Nuro thinks I may have MS. Over the past two year I have been having problems. It started with very bad headaches and sometime it was like something was trying to pull my eye out. Then the next thing I know I was having problems with blurred vision. The headaches can last for days and nothing stops the headaches.I also have body aches sometime I fill as if something is trying to pull evey bone in my body out.I also do a lot of falling for no reason I can be walking and just fall.I have numbness in my limbs. And also have Tremors. I had a MRI in 2001 of the brain and it showed that there MIGHT me MS.. MIGHT is a big word for a abn mri. And also had a MRI of my c-spine and it showed sclerosis.So my doctor did 3 more in the past three years and all showed the same as befor. Needless to say my doctor didnt was to look in to it. So he droped it. In the mean time I have been in and out of the hospital. Onece was because I couldnt talk with out Stuttering and couldnt stop shaking and was in a lot of pain. So he sent me to a nuro for my pain. He thought it was from me having a bad back. Well i know longer see that doctor i olny see the nuro and she wasnt very happy to find out i was in and out of the hospital. She told me that I have a lot of symptoms of ms. I have to go this week and have more tests ran. she is doing a MRI of the brain and also of my c-spine and then she is doing a spinal tap. So to say I am very scared. Does anyone know if it can run in the family? There is 3 or 4 2nd cousins in my family that does have ms.

I get sick of hearing kids online (Kids would be anyone under 25 or so) complaining of being bored especially while online.

I can't imagine ever being bored. Actually I would love to have a lot more time to do all the things I'd like to do.

As stated I have not long turned 50 and have never had a full medical - taking blood samples, tests on liver and kidney function etc. Are these types of medicals available on the NHS or does one have to go private. If so any recommendations would be helpful. An indication of the cost involved would also be useful.
