Is discoloration on or around the penis normal? My fiance has two spots that are relatively small but kind brownish purple that are really worrying him. I don't think he has anything to worry about but he's really concerned. Who would he go see about something like that? (He doesn't have health coverage)

I am a 20 year old female and for the last few nights I've experienced a very sharp pain between my shoulder blades.

The pain ONLY happens when I change positions when I'm getting ready to go to bed at night. For instance, I'll be laying on my back then switch over to my stomach and the pain will only be between my shoulder blades for about 3 or 4 seconds. The pain never happens anytime else, like when I breathe in deep or am sitting upright.

I've done some research and they say that in women this can be a sign of stress or a heart attack..however I don't think I'm stressed and I sure hope I won't be having a heart attack at 20?

Should I go to a doctor or just wait it out and see if it goes away? It just started about 4 days ago.

I have been anaemic for several months now. My GP is only giving me iron supplements which don't seem to help at all. I feel dizzy and tired most of the time, I get pale and sweaty whenever I make the slightest effort and throw up when I'm training or playing sports.
I am a very active fit person and I eat the healthiest diet I can think of
Any suggestions? I have increased the amount of greens, nuts, liver and everything else apart from Guiness.

Sometimes I get this really weird feeling like I am going to pass out. I get really hot all of a sudden and sometimes I pass out and sometimes I don't. I have only passed out from it like 3 times in the past 4 years. It happens at really weird times too like I will be sitting in church or something like that and I get really hot and uncomfortable. The back of my neck also hurts sometimes too when this happens. I can't stay outside in the heat for more than ten minutes or so and it happens. I would go to the doctor but I don't have any insurance. Could someone please let me know what they think. Thanks!!

Hey! I had posted about nerve pain. My nerve pain isn't from an injury or a post-operation damage. It all happen out of nowhere. It started with a severe headache (worse than migraine) that last it for over 18 mos. This headache was 24/7. Then my left side went completely numb. One day, at my office I colapse and fell face first to the floor. Funny to say I worked at a hospital, I was rush to ER and stood for a week at the hospital, they didn't found why it all happen.

Since then I have been suffering from this extreme nerve pain. They found lessons in my brain. I am under the care of a neurologist. It sad cause I am a young person under 40. I am going through a lot with this problem!

My mother may have chronic myeloid leukemia, and one of the ways of treating it is a bone marrow transplant.

Who are usually the closest matches for donors? Can children be a close enough match (usually) to be a donor?

Once a donor is found, what happens?

I am very worried, and would like to know what my chances are of being able to help my mother. I would like to know what may be in store for her, and how I can help her prepare in every way. I would also like to know how the transplant affects the donor so I may prepare, if I am a match.

Thanks for any help.

Okay, well i just started to get really addicted to pasta. It's whole wheat pasta, with no sodium tomato sauce, and chicken strips(southwestern seasoned by oscar mayer) . I found out that only 4 cups has 800 calories, so one meal with chicken, juice, is like 1000 calories. Otherwise its a very healthy meal, but Dont you only burn like 1200 everyday or less? If i continue to eat this every night for dinner will i gain weight?

Well, I'm 14, so obviously mine is still quite irregular and whatever, etc..Sometimes it's really light, other times it's really heavy. When it's really heavy and I have horrible cramps, I take ibprofen, this seems to help A LOT, but what else can I do? (I know stay away from caffine, but anything else I should stay away from?) And I have this craving for milk just a few days before and after my period, but not during. Is this normal? What are some ways I can control my irritability during my periods? Like, as far as my personality goes I become very crabby, etc..I try to manage my emotion the best I can, but any tips on this? Thanks,! :)
