My right knee cracked last night when i bent it, and today its reaalllyyy sore, and sort of has a warm sensation...im so scared to go doctors, is this a sign of cancer or MS?

my Dr. increased my Zoloft again. It was 50 mg when I started on it almost a year ago, then it was increased to 100 mg, where it stayed for a long time. It helped immensley with my depression. But then I started feeling more down than up, so it was increased to 150 3 weeks ago, and now I feel just as depressed as I was before I started taking it. What gives?

Does it hurt more or less if the tooth that is getting filled is on the top? Does the shot that they give you hurt? I am so scared!

I've been helping to take care of my neibor's husband. He's 88-years old and has beginers stage of Alheimers. We take care of him at the house cause he's not quite ready to go to a nursing home. Although he's still able to do things for himself and take care of his garden, theres' moments when he'll become confused or have dizzy spells and lose his balance. We need to find a way to keep him from banging himself up or tearing his skin. He's got two lumps on his forehead and about three skin tears on his arms. He's very stubborn and won't wear any kind of long-sleeve on his arms. Any advice?

i was just diagnosed with iron-deficient anemia, mostly due to a heavy menstrual cycle (which is being treated). Any suggestions for vegetarian iron-rich foods to eat? Also, is the supplement iron glycinate okay to use instead of ferrous sulfate? Anyone know the difference? any help would be appreciated.

I've done the low carb diet before and it worked really well for me. but i gained all of the weight back when i quit smoking. so, now, i'm back to losing the weight again.

so, my question is, when i get into ketosis, i generally go on for a week to 10 days and then i take 1 or 2 days off. is that enough of a break?

P.S. i don't want to hear from anyone telling me that the atkins diet is going to kill me and that i should stop. that is not what i'm hear asking about. thanks.

Even a little sip of wine sets off a severe reaction. Foods that contain vinigar and sometimes even bread will set-off hives and facial swelling.

I do have ibs and that is what contributes, but man alive I am in pain lately when I do go. Can you help. I guess should just use a stool softener but need a suggestion.
If I should just eat salad and corn all day just tell me. I hate both but am willing now at this point. But oh i love to eat.

hey guys thanks so much for commenting me exept for the one sarcastic dude. i forgot to mention that i carry about 95% of the fat in my stomach and sides, 1% in my chest, and 4% in my butt lol. My thighs and legs are suprisingly slim and all muscle.. I dont look my weight though. I wear a size medium shirt and size 30 pants. just like most of my skinny friends. im just worried about the bulge out of the sides and my front. My doctor actually did mention that i was very muscular and that i was only a small percentage body fat. but that not the way i feel.
