I'm hoping there might be some medical professionals out there reading this...one of the symptoms of colon cancer is blood in the stool. Does this have to be consistent blood in the stool, or would an occassional occurance fall in to that if a person is exhibiting the other signs/symptoms of colon cancer?

I was taking an arial video on myself on my camera with my friends when I dropped it on my face (hahahahahahaha, I know, I suck.) I now have a fat upper lip, and it bothersome and still hurts a little. How long does it take for it to go away, and what can I do to ease the pain?

I used to work out in college and had built some decent mass and definition. As with all, I left the workouts after college have recently decided to pick up the weights again. Will it take me the same amount of time as the first time to start building mass and seeing definition again?

Sometimes I just can't stay awake. In class I have nodded off, and yesterday I nodded off in the middle of my boss teaching me something at work. I'll feel my eyes get heavy and I'll try to pay attention, but its like I can;t and all of a sudden I just turn off and fall asleep. I'll even sort of start dreaming a little. Does anyone else have this problem? I sort of wonder if its ADD or something since it always happens when I am trying to focus on something. I don't fall asleep if I am working on something, only if I am watching someone else doing something. And I am interested in learning. Plus I'm sleeping normal amounts, like 6-8 hours a night. And it's very intense drowsiness, like I can't keep my eyes open. I'm literally fighting to stay awake. It's embarassing!!!

I had a Route Canel done weeks ago and every since then I have been really sick, vomiting. I have not had the Crown put on yet because I have been so sick. My jaw started hurting today and I am woundering if all this is because of the Route Canel?

Hey... I think part of my tooth nerve (one of my front teeth) is exposed. The gum may have been pushed up to expose it... the area is no more than 1mm exposed but if I touch it with a finger nail it's painful. It's not painful to eat on, swill my mouth with water or to brush thank God. Do you think I've just brushed too hard/too often that area and the gum has been pushed up? How can I get the gum back down to cover it?

It seems when something goes wrong with my life or with whatever, everything starts going wrong.... like my husband and I have been having issues, my washer broke today the water pipe busted today, and last night our battery in our car went completely dead and we had to get another battery today.. why is it when something bad happens everything starts going badly and when there are good things happening, everything starts going good... why does it happen like that lol... its like someone has it out for me or something lol...life just seems full of cruel irony... does this happen to anyone else or is it just me?

I am recovering from recent prostrate surgery and this book was recommended--by another recent patient at the same hospital (Johns Hopkins). The author (Dr. Patrick C. Walsh) was, and may still be, on staff at Johns Hopkins. I have tried searching in amazonbooks.com but could not find it...

I have this 'fishy' type odor down there...yet it only happens once in a while. I have tried special soaps for females and powders...The problem is, is that those things only wash away bacteria on the outside. Are there any OTC things I can use to treat this??

Hi I'm a 17 year old male who's height is around 5ft. I come from a short family and it sux but w/e. My doctor said that will be my permanent height since I'm done with my growth spurts. Anyways I measured my height today (just to see if i'm growing) and it seems that my height is reduced by a few cm. Is this possible? Did I measure wrong? I thought shrinking wasn't even an issue when your young.
Is it possible that I will be shrinking now by a few inches?

Every year I get the same terrible spell of depression I cant get away from it. Ive had a hard life but I seem to focus on it at certain times of the year, every year.I worry, stress and loose sleep a lot. Ive had peptic ulcers and the docs believe strees is making them reoccour. Why does this always happen to me? I cant stop feeling rejected alone and fearful but its not like I dont have friends, the few I do are great but I couldnt even try to explain what Im going through year in year out because I hardly understand myself whats wrong with me?

A friend of mine asked me to join her at the Relay for Life event in my home town. I would really like to go but my mother died of cancer and I just have so much anger for all of the people that have survived. I know this is wrong, but I cant seem to get past it. Its not fair, my little sister was only 14 when my mom died and we were left with our step father who treated us like a burden.

If they do not know the letters then they cannot give the answers on line 4, etc. Give them a series of different animals, but that might not work either. One could use different kinds of drugs. Now that would work on a lot of them.
