I have been sick for about 12 weeks now. It started with severe pressure on my ears and head, then later that week I started getting really bad dizzy spells; to the point where I can't even stand up. A few weeks later I started getting very bad headaches, my tongue stops working, my body shakes for no reason, I am hot and cold all at the same time, everything that comes in my one ear is distorted and there is almost always ringing in that ear. These things come and go and I never know what to expect. The spells have been getting more frequent like once or twice a day. My doctor has been giving me the run around and keeps telling me I am depressed and am making my body do these things. Please tell me I am not crazy!

My mom's friend went out last night after her last shot of Chemotheraly for her "breast cancer". She drank (to celebrate) about 11 mixed drinks ( rum and coke). Of course she was out of it last night (falling over, can't think straight, etc.). When my mom called her this morning to check on her she was not talking or breathing right. Mom mom said she couldn't understand what she was saying because she was mumbeling stuff and breathing really weird. Should we call an ambulance to her house. Now rememebr she just a a chemotherapy shot before she got drunk....what should we do...we can't go over there (no car)

I just took a couple tests -from an actual person who does that sort of thing professionally- and I averaged out at 140.

I'm not taking it too seriously, but I'd like to know what that means in the scheme of things...

Ok, so they're all telling us to drink 6 glasses of water a day. Well..........every one has different sized glasses. Is a glass of water a bottle of water or is it half a bottle, or is it a cup. Please help, I'm so confused!!!

Ok I am 16 and i have trouble getting up in the morning. I am a very sound sleeper. Even if my radio alarm goes of I am still asleep. Even a sonic boom is useless for me. What can i do to wake up early in the morning??? I knows most of you would say go to bed early. But if so how come my other family members dont have the same problem? My mom can wake up at the time she wants to. I know most of you would also probably say to let others wake me up but no there are nobody to wake me up. My mom will never wake me up if its holiday. I often get up like at noon hours like at 1pm or 2 pm. If this continues then I might ruin my life later. I would never be able to wake up early in the morning. Plz send me the best answers possible. I dont wanna be in bed 15 hours a day and waste my time. I jus wanna be in bed for max 6 hours. I dont wanna sleep more than that.

was previously diagnosed with gestational diabetes two years ago. levels have been normal since except for maybe a few low readings. sometimes below 60. I am wondering if maybe the combination of sugar in the coffee and a pop tart was just too much sugar? Or if maybe i checked it to soon. this has only happened the last two days so i don't have many readings to compare to. I have checked after eating a hot dog for lunch today. I had a glass of water to drink. It was 148 and hour after eating and 140 two hours later. Please any advice or help.

I am 23: 5' 10" tall: and weigh 214lbs. For about 6 months I have been eating healthier and exercising at least 3 times a week. My diet consists of fresh fruit and yougurt for breakfast, lunch can be a bowl of cereal (measured according to the serving size on the box) or a salad, or turkey sandwich no cheese or mayo. And dinner is 2 servings of veggies and a serving of meat (usually chicken, turkey or fish) Drinks through out the day are milk, juice, and a lot of water. And for snacks if I get hungry between meals, is usually fruits, cheese sticks, or yougurt, ect. And I eat just enough to get me to the next meal. About 2 months ago, I even increased my exercise to 5-7 times a week and I haven't lost a single pound. My exercising includes Monday: Pilates & 1 1/2mile run P-ups and S-ups. Tuesday: Step Aerobics Wednesday: Leg toning workout with friend & Pilates Thursday: Circuit Training and Friday: Some form of cardio for 30 min and more P-ups and S-ups. What's wrong?
