Okay, this is kinda hard to explain, but I will try my best.

For the past three or four days, I've been having a problem with my stomach. I am really hungry, and I WANT to eat, but I can't. It feels like there are rocks in my stomach and that I am completely full 24/7, but I'm still hungry.
When I do eat, it makes me sick (and trust me, I don't make myself throw up or anything). I WANT to eat. My stomach is starting to get severely flat, and I don't know what to do. I have a doctors appointment next Wednesday, but I can't wait that long. I'm so hungry, but can't eat a damn thing (pardon my language). I frustrated, hungry, weak, and I feel like I can't do anything. Even if I eat SOFT food, it upsets my stomach. I don't know what to do.
I can only drink stuff and very little at a time.
I don't mean to be gross either, but my stool has been bright blue also for no reason. Can someone PLEASE help me figure out what is wrong with me? Thank you so much!!

I've been sick for a few days with diarrhea and nausea and the doctor told me to drink gatorade...I've been drinking gatorade for the past day and today I had diarrhea that was a little red/orange. Could it be the gatorade or should I be worried?

I asked this question earlier this month and the answers went into voting before I got a chance to thank the people who helped me with their replies. I wanted to let you know the outcome to my situation. To summarize my original question: My dentist stated I needed a porcelain crown that would cost $1900. I asked if there were any alternatives, and he said no because the silver amalgam was leaking. My insurance would cover $390. The office manager said I should not delay too long to get the crown done or else I could end up needing a root canal.

I decided to look for more affordable dental treatments, and considered the dental school where the crown would cost $780. I asked for a copy of the x-rays, and the office manager at the dentist’s office seemed upset and asked me if I was going for a second opinion, and also didn’t want to give me the copy, but to directly send the x-rays to the second dentist. I told her I didn't have a second dentist set up yet.

I started to have psoriasis when I was 15 years old. I'm a female and I thought it was just a bad case of dandruff and scars due to scratching of head. When I got a very short haircut, it seemed to disappear, and I thought it did. It came back when I was 16 1/2 years old. A few months later, it disappeared and it came back again after a few months when I started sleeping late at night due to school projects. My mother told me that it was because of stress and sleeping late. And I told myself I won't be sleeping late anymore and drank virgin coconut oil, and I think it disappeared somewhat. It's not as worse as it had been before. I am really worried that I'll be able to live with it for the rest of my life. And recently, my younger sister appeared to get it as well on the scalp. I have a relative who is diagnosed with psoriasis as well, but she is around 40 + already and has psoriasis all over her body. Please help me! Thanks!

I am 5'5" and 110lbs. I am pretty skinny and I have a small butt that is a handfull. I'm happy with the size of my butt except I have some dimples on the bottom part of my bottom. I am a very motivated individual that loves to run, but I would love to get rid of these dimples. I am willing to work out to up to an hour a day in order to get my "dream butt." I am meeting with a guy in 3 weeks that I really like and I would love to have as close to a perfect butt by then. I know squats and lunges are great. Can any personal trainers give me a specific routine out there, that will most quickly burn off these dimples!!! Please help me, I would really appreciate it. :)

I like natural remedies better than medication and stuff like that. I believe that medication just causes further problems.
I already take a vitamin every day. And D-Mannose has helped with the UTI's a lot.

I have SIckle Cell and one thing that ticks me off is when I tell Dr.'s that the pain meds they give me don't work and they're like well we'll just up the dosage (like I haven't already when in enough pain) or they're like take it in conjunction with something else (like I haven't already). The pills still don't work and it's like they won't prescribe anything else. I'm like come on I'm 24 and you have been giving me the same meds for YEARS, does it occur to you that my body is so used to them that they no longer have any effect?? Tylenol w/ codine, prescription ibuprofen 600mg, even oral morpine, they are all jokes to me. Even percasets won't effect me. What in the he-zee can I do?

My body just naturally wants to stay up late for some reason and I hate it. It ALLWAYS throws off my sleeping pattern. Then when I wake up I'm tired groggy - and didn't get enough sleep. How do you get your body out of a bad habit? I'll sit down at 9 or 10 pm and try to fall asleep but to no avail I'm laying in bed for the next 3 or 4 hours thinking. Is there a good way of changing your sleeping habits? AND at this point I stay up later and later...and get my self in deeper and deeper. Drives me crazy....

my mom is going today to have an operation for a perianal abscess. they tried to drain it, but couldnt get all the way to it since its about 5 inches in diameter. they also said it could be cured by antibiotics and prescribed some to her. by the time she had gotten home from getting the medicine the dr called back to say they would have to do surgery instead. i am wondering why such a quick change in decision. is there potential for something else there, even if he didnt say so? what can be expected in this operation? anybody with personal experience would be greatly appreciated. i know the background info as i have googled it and read many medical articles. just looking for some more insight and possible reassurance.
thanks so much!
