I'm just getting over the stuffed head aspect of my flu, and now everything is movind down into my chest. Wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have mild asthma. Just because of that small fact, I can end up coughing fitfully for weeks on end. So now I have 2 questions...

1. How can I treat the asthma without having to take meds...
2. Am I still flu contagious after I stop all other symptoms of flu? (except for the nasty cough... The only reason I tire easily is because I do so much of it and run out of breath...)

Because I have asthma I can't take OTC cough meds (because they could mask an asthma attack). I've run out of asthma meds, and can't afford new ones. Is there something that I can do to ease my breathing? Thanks!

I have a friend at school who has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, it a thing that makes her have stupid fears. She thinks there are drugs everywhere. I really don't want to watch her suffer but how can I help her? I really feel sorry that she has to deal with this terrible disorder. How can I convince her that there are no drugs at school? She has to take a long shower every day she gets home from school. Anyway, I am really glad that she told me because I really want to help her.

I do have high stress levels, but have time to myself during the day. I start to feel irritable as soon as they come home from school. I get impatient and angry over little things. Does anyone out there feel like this? I am seeing a psychiatrist who has tried many different medications, but nothing seems to really get to the root of the problem. I am a stay home mom. I love my kids and have been with them through every phase of their lives. What is wrong with me? My kids are 16, 13, 11, and 9. I do feel a totally different sense of responsibility with them than I did when they were younger. It seems harder now. Help!

First off, providing medical supplies to African citizens suffering from HIV/AIDS, is this a smart of stupid thing to do. Basically, giving treatments to HIV/AIDS sufferer prolongs there life. Common sense. right? I'm sure many can agree with this. Knowing there is no cure. However, the HIV/AIDS sufferer most indefinitely, due to the medical treatments, was able to live longer and spread his/her disease to x amount of people before dying. Where as if he/she did not have the medical treatment he/she would have died a x amount of years before, nulling out the spread of infection the x amount of people. This theoretical situation could occur on multiple levels involving millions of people and I think it does. So with treatments but not cures people are able to live longer and are able to spread more of the disease opposed to not living and not spreading the disease. As much as I care about the infected, I care about the non-infected too, maybe a little more. So what do we do?

This started in 2005 when I thought I had food poisoning from bad pork. I Belched and pooped uncontrollably for 4 days; was getting better but sought medical help with a script of flagyl. I avoided pork, and now just about anything will aggravate my stomach/intestines. I pass diarrhea, liquid feces sometimes anytime, but now moreso during sleep when my system seems relaxed. This excrement is extremely foul and can go on all night.

For like the last week i havent been feeling so well. It started a few days ago when i woke up having a nose bleed. It bleed for a little while and stopped. The next day woke up to the same thing, except this time i was vomiting soon after. Today I woke up vomiting again and just was cranky and really sleepy. I went back to bed and since i got up to come to work ive just felt sick like i was going to vomit again. Ive been able to eat, just not as much without getting a sick feeling. I'm 99% sure Im not pregnant( thats usually the first thing people think of.)

The only thing that hurts in my mouth is my tongue. I believe that either my top or bottom teeth are biting my tongue. How can I fix my tongue so that I can eat a regular meal without being in pain?

Woke up Tues am very bloated and had stomach cramps. Cramps went away but now when I feel hungry it hurts my stomach after trying to eat. Since being in pain I find myself tightening up around my stomach. If I drink liquids I do ok but just eating something like a potato makes me feel like I ate way more than that. Am normally on acid reflux prescription but ran out so bought an over the counter med til I can get my prescription filled again. This OTC med not really helping but like I said I wasn't able to get my regular med filled. The pain is across my upper stomach which could be the large intestine but it's been four days now and still afraid to eat anything heavy. Any ideas or suggestions?
