I have pain on the left side of my back, kind of reaching over to my stomach. I'm not feeling too ill. No vomiting or anything. This just started earlier today. I haven't done anything to strain this area, so I am just wondering what this could be.
It bothers me to stand or sit and sometimes breathing in and out...

When i was 13 i got my first period, now i am 23. I got it for 10 days and then i got it again the following month, then it stopped. I have always been overweight, never diagnosed with thyroid problems,i havent really tried to lose weight but i have dieted before and i do lose weight when i try. My mother found out she has a thyroid problem so its possible i do too. The following year i got my period regularly for three months, and then nothing. Nothing for almost 2 years. I saw a doctor, no pap smear, got Birth Control, made my period last for 20 days so i stopped.. Year or two later, i lost 50 pounds and got a period, it was regular. then i didnt get it the next month, but the following month i got it, then i didnt get it again for like 6 months. Then i got it once more after that. I have no sympotoms of a period, but couple months back, i had a little spotting but no period. Im still over weight, and a small bit of dark facial hair under my chin. Could this be PCOS? or what? help me

Is there a way to make your veins more visible or the veins thicker/larger?

As much as I hate having my blood drawn, I have to go get a blood test done tomorrow at a hospital, and every time that I go get a blood test done, the lab people are complaining that they can't see my veins! I've never met a phlebotomist who got the blood at the first try...I'm pale and it's not like I have so much fat on my arm or anything...my veins are invisible! The lab people always have to use the butterfly needles and I even had one person cursing in front of me because they wasted five needles, while another time, I spent 30 minutes at a lab, while there was a long line of people waiting outside.

I've tried drinking more fluid, but that doesn't seem to help that much. The phlebotomists told me that my veins are small, too, and that whenever they poke a needle in, my veins keep moving away from the needle. Do you know a way to make the veins more visible?!

I am experiencing some discomfort in the neck the past days. I suspected it as high blood pressure so I went to a cardiologist and was advised that my blood pressure is unstable. He prescribed Duvadilan. Will this help? Been taking it but i still fell discomfort in the neck and back of the head.

My husband had an ankle reconstruction in july 05. He was told it would take three months to heal. We have seen a gp and specialist but they make light of the situation. It is now 1 1/2 years later and his ankle swells dramatically and changes colour to purple/black. We were told if he is on his feet more it would get better. When he is on his feet more it swells even more and hurts him. I am afraid that he may have circulation &/or blood clot. This could be highly dangerous. How many second opions do we need. What should we believe? Help us

Skylor, my friend, is complaining that he has stomach pains and he has hot-flashes all over his body. He says there is no designated spot in his stomach where it hurts; just all over.

He's 14, if that makes any difference...
