what should I do if my left side of my body keeps going numb...?

This is a bit complicated, but I'm trying to get insight on what other things I can look at. So here goes...I can't eat milk chocolate. When I eat any more than a small bite, I tend to get sick. This only happens in the hours after eating any large amount of chocolate (and for me, large is anything more than one piece of Hershey's (not the whole bar! Just one of the segmented pieces), or one bar of something like Carmello (which is milk chocolate filled with caramel). It happens for usually no more than 4 hours after, but in that time, I almost always get nauseous, sometimes get muscle spasms, less often get numbness in my hands and feet (like, if I try to eat a whole bar of solid milk chocolate, like Hershey's), and very rarely have nerve sensitivity all over my body (anything rubbing or pressing against my skin bothering me, kinda painful, very irritating). So...I'm trying to figure out, what is this? An allergy?

More information coming...

I didn't put more because i have a friend that put 350ml silicone and it was huge.
So can someone explain to me what the difference is from ml silicone and cc saline?

Okay, I wear boxer briefs 24/7 and I'm 14 and I'll be 15 at the start of February. I was wondering that if I keep constantly wearing something tight, will it prevent my penis from growing and/or my balls? Because, seriously, they're kind of small. Should I start wearing boxers? I really dislike wearing them, because they are uncomfortable for me, but what should I wear and which is better for my age not to hurt my penis or testicle's growth??? I really like boxer briefs...but what should I also do???

I'm 21. I smoked the ganj (weed) for 2 years and quit about 1.5-2 months ago.
During the 2 years of weed smoking I coughed up phlegm with specs of black stuff in it every now and then. I was a serious smoker... at least once a day for those two years... then I quit pretty much cold turkey. (If you say marijuana is physically addictive I'll slap you)
The problem is that when I cough up phlegm there is a larger amount of black in each mucus load. AND its happening more frequently.
I am currently getting over a cold/cough so the amount of phlegm itself is alot more too.
Ohyeah... sometimes my phlegm is almost solid. When I get those(usually in the morning) there isnt any black stuff in them.
Please help... Ive read several different questions like this.
I just want to make sure its just my body trying to clean my resin saturated lungs and not something totally unexpected.

For the past three months or so I have had 'looser' stools in the AM and PM before bed. I have tried to change my diet and figure out what is causing this, but I have no idea what it could be! I used to not really go but once every two days!
Also, this evening I went and I could have sworn I saw some bright red blood in the mix... so now I'm worried!
You know stuff online always has you thinking its cancer when you read things. I lead a stressful life, work full time (45+ hours a week, plus I go to school in the evenings 20 hours a week) and my workout routine and eating habits aren't the best, but its been two years since I've had this routine, why would my stools change in the last three months? Please help!!

I think this antibiotic has severe side effects on me including headaches,dizziness,general confusion. My parent says there are No substitutes since it is dangerous to change antibiotics and is very reluctant to discuss side effects with a doctor.

Why do people have a problem with eating cloned animal meat? It is still just a cow. Its sort of like cutting a worm in half. In the end, you still have perfectly normal worms. Do you think twins are strange? Technically, one twin is the clone of the other. With cows, they simply make more "twins" (triplets, quintuplets, etc.). The only problem I perceive is that it may drastically reduce the gene pool, and possibly leading to an extinction (not complete extinction) of cows due to a disease or something the original couldn't defend against. If you don't like the idea of cloned animals, next time you see a twin you should shun one and say how gross they are.
