She's been sick lately so they did blood test and it came back positive for hepatitis B.

I had mononucleosis about 7 years ago, so is it possible she could get mono from me and complicate her health more?

Also she obviously cooks for us so wondering what are the chances anyone else could get it from her?

Also my dad is saying I need to get blood tested too but I haven't been sick or anything. So why should I do it?

I had a mammogram done, followed by an ultrasound- when I was finished the radiologist asked to see me, he said that it was a cause for concern because he pulled up my mammogram from two years earlier and it should that there was something in the same location, but a lot smaller, because of my age at the time, it was never brought to my attention. Now they want to do a biopsy to determine what it is. Is it possible that it is cancer and it has been growing for the last two years?

i have had this diagnosed by the public health nurse, she sed she saw small dimples in the center of these tiny red bumps. They DO itch contrary to what some sources say about mollluscum. they are smooth NOT cauliflower like regular planters warts. thought they might be scabies but the dr that looked at them sez he is definite they are NOT scabies. i have used compound w for 4 days once every 24 hours even though it sez right on the tube to not use compound w on genital warts. because the national institute for halth site sez that common wart treaments SOMeTIMES works on molluscum. compound w burns a bit when i first apply it. this has been going on for about 8 to 10 weeks. it is better than when i first noticed it , but there are 4 little bumps that are persistant. i ain't been gitting eny due to this situation. so am eager to clear this up. so is she. make us happy, please, enybody?

I recently had a sympathic nerve block and the doctor hit a nerve and as he did, my leg jumped up behind me and I had a searing pain from the point the needle was in my back down a straight line to my foot. My whole body jerked. I never felt a warm feeling when it was being preformed and never felt numb or any relief. I was concerned that my body jumped so much with a needle in my back. Since then I have terrible back pain and never received any relief from this block. My question is, are they suppose to hit a nerve and could this have done damage to my back?

Hi, I run on the tredmill, and im pretty sure that when you run on an incline, you build up more indurence. I run about 1 mile 3 times a week, in about 7:50mins. and i know thats not a great time, but hey, i just started out 2 weeks ago. anyway, will adjusting the incline on the tredmill improve my time, and indurence? also, how should i start out, like what angle? and how long until i start increasing it? thanks alot -George
