My 5 year son has asthma, it's bad. Everytime he gets a cold the dr. puts him on a steroid to help boost his immune system! He proly gets the meds every other month! Is this harmful in the long run! I can't think of what it is called right now, I wanna say prednisolone (spelling) but not 100% on that!

I know acceptance is the final one. I also know that bargaining is one and so is denial. What are the rest and in what order?

I have just been through a colonoscopy and the doc said I have anxiety and panic attacks. I tried Xanax XR 1 mg. and felt like a zombie. I will be going back to the doc today for a new perscription. Does anyone know of a med that works without bad side effects? Also, maybe a natural pill that works just as well?
Thanks

My mom has had many problems with Diverticulitis. In Jan she was in the hospital for 9 days, and recently she was in for 3 for what they thought was Diverticulitis. After some sort of test (I am not sure what it was) it showed that she was not in active Diverticulitis, but had a build up of scar tissue from having it so many times. She was to have a colon resection next week when the doctor decided to do a colonsocopy today to rule out Crohn's and IBS.

Whew...ok, almost there...so in my experience (breast cancer survivor) doctors do not always say they are looking for cancer. My mom's mom died of colon cancer, so there is a risk, but I am wondering if there is anyone out there who has had something like this happen, colon cancer being "hid" by something else.

The peeling starts off as black discoloration the size of a dime on the normally chocolate colored feet and fingers (especially index finger). These dont itch, but soon, the discolored skin dries up and starts to come right off, painlessly. I apply foot lotion every day but have not noticed any changes. I have also noticed that this gets worse when the dry season (now, in septemmber) arrives.

I had a tooth pulled last Thursday. It needed stitches so I had to go back Tuesday to get the stitches out. Since this time I have had to go back to the dentist everyday to have the extraction site packed with gauze and clove oil and it just happened to be the very back molar. I am suffering with chronic pain in my jaw to the point that I can't even hardly even open my mouth. I am on antibiotics so it is not infected and I am taking VicodinES and Motrin for the pain but it still persists. Oh and the dentist says that it is not a dry socket either so why does my jawbone and ear hurt so bad? Anyone have any suggestions because at this point I need some.
