Should we be asking the doctor if there is something going on with her immune system? Are there any tests we should be having done? She no more finishes one bottle of medicine til she is sick again.

I know that people have had cervical cancer and never had an abnormal pap. My question is: How do I bring up the fact that I am suspicous of cervical cancer to my doctor without sounding like a drama queen? I have been experiencing alot of the symptoms associated with cervical cancer, and I have most of the risk factors. I have never had an abnormal pap, but I'm worried that if something is wrong, we're wasting time by waiting for one. Does anyone have any good advice? Has anyone ever been faced with this??

Anal Cancer. Farrah Fawcett has been diagnosed with it recently. Until I read the article yesterday, I had never heard of it..... for someone as fit as she is, makes you wonder how this could have happened. There are 4600 new cases every year compared to 148,000 colorectal cancer. It develops in the area connecting the large intestine to the outside of the body, and is easily missed. Why haven't we heard about this type of cancer before now?

recently the top layer of my wisdom tooth was exposed revealing a hard yellow substance. I began to pick at it (i know i probably shouldn't have) but I did anyway and it began to chip away and it looked like what might happen when popcorn builds up. Does anyone know what this is?

I am 21 years old with eye floaters and i was told they are common. However, none of my friends know what the heck i am talking about. Sometimes i feel like a freak.........since i have no one to relate to.

another thing, if they are really that common,how come people still enjoy going otdoors? They irritate me so much when it's sunny : (
