and the doctors have said it is just a bug and to let it run it`s course that was 3 weeks ago now she has been taken to hospital as she has got worse, why do doctors not just examine the patient and keep an eye on them to make sure they are getting better, the appointment was on the phone as the gp did`nt think it was neccesary to bring her along to the surgery, she is only 1 year old

Recently, I had a thyroid biopsy on my thyroid nodule and was lucky enough to find no cancer cells present. However, my thyroglobulin level is very high, 679 ng/mL compared to the normal range of 2.0 - 35 ng/mL. I know that other conidtions also cause elevated thyroglobulin level. But a level that is almost 20 times higher that normal makes me worry. Could experts on thyroid disease give me some advices? Thank you very much in advance.

The doctor put me on drops to soften the bad wax build up I have in my right ear. It is a little painful and I can't hear. How long will it take for the drops to remove the wax? And I know--no more q-tips!!

For the last few months, I've been getting a muscle ache on my lower back, right above the butt, after 10 to 15 minutes of running on a treadmill. I've changed my sneakers - got new ones and that really didn't help. I've tried stretching right before the run too, but that didn't help much either. This is becoming a real pain... and preventing me from pursuing more aggressive training. Any help would be extremely helpful.

I had sex (using a condom) 5 days after my period ended which was Nov. 11th. On Dec. 13th, I got my period. Now, for the last week, I've been experiencing breast tenderness. Why could this be? If I gently push on them or feel around, they feel "bruised" (the best descriptive word I could think of). Is there still a possibility I could be pregnant? If not, what are some causes of this? Does breast cancer show these symptoms? Thanks!

I have had asick feeling in my stomach for a week now and I've had a fever...But I'm not getting sick like I would be if I had a stomach virus..I know stress can cause stomach upset like that...But could it cause a low grade fever? I normally never get fevers even when I am sick...and there's nothing really wrong besides my stomach being upset but it's not bad..........I just don't know...Oh and I'm not pregnant.

My husband who is 42 years old says that he sometimes sees spots and tunnel vision....he claims when he eats a spoon full of sugar, it goes away, I've checked on the web for symptoms of diabetes and he doesn't seem to have any of the symptoms, what could cause him to see spots and such?

I have anxiety attacks on occasion, not often enough to need daily medicating. I know what triggers them and my doctor suggested medication for times when I thought it might be likely. My question is how fast would this work? Do I take it an hour ahead, a few minutes, a few hours? How long does it last? What drug will it be? Side effects? How well does it work?

I know I need to ask my doctor all this, and I will, but I would like to get an idea of things so I can plan accordingly. (She wont be available until after the holidays)
