I am facing a problem of having a sudden attack of weakness in my legs. When the attack come, you would feel like your energy and strength in your legs being drained out of it and won't be able to stand firm on the ground.

Any advise on what it might be??

I woke up lastnight with a pain on my heart.. this pain was still prevalent today but much better than lastnight. I went to lie down this afternoon being very tired and the pain is now much worse. Somehow I don't think it is a heart-attack but something else.. could a hernia, an ulcer or something like that be the cause?? I have no medical and would have to go to a Government Hospital in the worst of circumstances should it persist.. It is excruciating painful though

well i guess as i've gotten older, i get more headaches. when i was younger i'd be able to run around in circles do push ups sit ups etc without getting a headache. now i'm 16 and when i do push ups or sit ups i always get headaches or if i do something simple i'll get a headache, it might be because of lack of sleep? i drink a lot of water as i've heard it helps the headaches. i've gotten so used to drinking water so that's basically all i ever drink, could there be any other reason why i get so many headaches besides the lack of sleep? i mean..even if..theres a time where i get enough sleep i still get random headaches.

I have real problems breathing through my nose, even when i'm sat down, but really badly when i'm walking, so i walk around everywhere looking like i'm in a state of shock- mouth open (and you should see me when i'm running!) someone pointed out in my last question breathing through your mouth all the time leads to a build up of saliva which then paints my lips with white goo which is very attractive. Does anyone else have problems breathing through their noses? Hope I don't sound too dense. Thanks in advance guys :)

It's kind of like when you're in a plane and your ears start popping. My ear is not clogged though. I went to an ENT specialist and he suctioned out my ears, ran some tests and told me that I have less hearing in the left ear but still said there is nothing wrong. He told me that since he suctioned, the pressure should go away within a few hours. I still feel lots of pressure (days later) but no clogging. Any idea what it could be? I'm going nuts...so agitated!!

My hygienist didn't seem too crazy about it when we asked about it. I think it will help keep my teeth clean. So do you think I should get one?

Last night around 9:00am, I started having a stomach ache. It wasn't bad just like regular stomach discofort. I thought it could be sour stomach so I took an antacid. Around, 11:00 the cramps started to get very bad and I could not sleep. About two hours later, I decided to take a bentyl ( I was prescribed this last year when I went to the ER for bad cramps I thought was appedicitis. But, I was sent home with just a diagnosis of stomach cramps which is why I decided not to go to the ER last night and wait to see how I felt in the moring) The bentyl started working but I had nausea and ended up vomiting. After I vomited the cramps started going away. I feel fine this morning my stomach aches a little but I think it is because it is empty. In addition to the cramps, I had nausea, chills, no fever though, the urge to pass gas but couldn't. Any ideas what it could be. I feel good now so I wait till tomoorow to see if I should go to the doctor.

My mom had breast cancer and it was this same doctor who ordered her to be biopsied and luckily they were able to catch cancer early and she's ok now. My mom trusts this doctor (our genereral physician - internet medicine) with her life.

I have a hard lymph node behind my left ear. It is fixed in place and hasn't moved. Now I have had these before, infact I have one under each ear that is hard and fixed in place, had it for more than 3 years and they have not grown. I also remember having a hard fixed in place lymph node behind my right ear when I was younger and was worried about it, only to have it go away on its own.

Ever since my mom was diagnosed I have been stressing about lymph nodes and lumps. my doctor said it's nothing to worry about, and to see him if it gets bigger or spreads (which it hasnt). He said he doesnt even consider it enlarged.

Before the app. i was worried it was lymphoma but he even said he doesnt seem like lymphoma or anything before I even mentioned it.

Do you women feel that your calves are being worked when you wear high-heels, since that is one of theory why women have muscular calves?

Are those of you with muscular calves ashamed of them? Or just your other body parts? I think that many women with muscular calves actually have great genetics for the whole body, just that they are too ashamed, or that they think the calves are the only sexy part.

How to help a cat with pneumonia? Please help?
P.S. When I give a tablet of antibiotic to her, she draws a lot of saliva on her mouth? Does this means that she is allergic to an antibiotic?
She is approximately 3 years old female cat.
She only drink a lot of water and take some milk, she does not urinate, she lies and sleeps all day and night. I have no Vet available in my town nor near to it.
