I recently came down with shingles, and am worried that if I am around people that it might be contageous. I have checked out all the online medical websites, and they are all very detailed about what shingles is and its symptoms, they're just kind of vague on the topic of whether its contageous or not.

I know someone who had sexual intercouse w/a person who had HPV (before this person knew they had the virus) but somehow didn't contract the virus themselves. Is it possible that they could just be a carrier of the virus? If so, how long could they carry this virus?

I have a doctor's appointment this week, and I know he is going to do a rectal exam on me. I've never had this done and am a bit apprehensive about it. Can anyone tell me about their experiences with this? Does it hurt?

I was wondering if it's too soon to be taking pre-natal vitamins eventhough I'm not sure I'm pregnant. Are they really expensive and where's a good place to buy them? I've also been shedding a lot lately and getting really intense headaches. Are these common signs of pregnancy?

I have experienced chest discomfort for the last 6 to 7 years , have had numerous tests done and all come back normal, I am on lipitor , which I have stopped taking to see if that helps with the muscle and chest pain, I currently am taking prvicid for acid reflux. My blood pressure is perfect. I also take CoQ10 , Omega 3 fish oil, and a multivitamin daily. I try to maintain a healthy life style and currently about 10 pounds overweight , I try to lift weights 3 times a week and do High intenstity interval cardio 3 days a week. My resting heart rate is between 47 and 52 bpm most mornings and daily average is around 66 bpm , when I do cardio exercises it will average between 149 bpm and 180 bpm and within 2 minutes of ending cardio be back down around 100 bpm, I don't consider myself a well conditioned athlete and at 46 years old, am a bit concerned that maybe my heart should be beating faster to supply my body with the oxygen it needs, my doctors I feel don't really believe me. Thanks

I had nasal surgery a week ago and was prescribed Oxycodone for pain. I only took it for about 6 days but now I'm having this horrible insomnia. Could it be withdrawal from the Oxycodone even though I didn't take it that long?
