I've been around dogs and cats my whole life and NEVER have had a problem with allergies. Last week I had the flu and I thought I was over it, but yesterday I started sneezing a lot and my nose is running like a leaky faucet. I have two cats, and like I said, I've never had a single problem. Is it possible that I have allergies to something such as pollen? (the weather was very warm yesterday compared to really cold temperatures). Is it possible that I just am not over my flu? (it doesn't feel quite like the flu) Or did I get a mild cold? What is going on? I can't live like this! I'm hoping it's just pollen or something. Anyone have any thoughts?

November ultrasound 3.3x1.9x3.3 septated cyst left ovary. One Month later December ultrasound 4.4x2.5x4.2 septated cyst left ovary. Put on Loestrin 24 FE for almost three months. March ultrasound 5.9x2.9x5.9 septated cyst left ovary. Now they gave me a CA-125 blood test (waiting for results) and want me to stop Loestrin 24 FE pills for two months. Then come back for another ultrasound in May. Do you think I should get a second opinion? CT or MRI Scan? Not sure what to think?

There is no pain or swelling, but it creeks real loud when i walk up stairs. Its only my right knee that does this. Should i be worried? I am only 28

Is my knee on its way out?? i used to be a roller skater as a teenager if that makes any difference.

Has anyone else got this same thing?

I'm a man and I want to know this:

If you're a young single woman and your boyfriend whom you really care about suddenly meets with an accident (not major) and needs to be hospitalised. Will you loose sleep over the fact that female nurses will be stripping him, making him urinate, change his clothes/ undies and sponge him, etc.

do you think it is not done to have female nurses carry on these routines on young bed ridden male patients in the hospital. And that only male nurses should be allowed to do that.

My right middle finger and my left ring finger have 'holes' in them, like layers of the nail have been worn off. I've had them for ages and they don't look like afungus or anything similar to me.... what are they and why do you think they could have happened?

For the past 9 months actually 32 years I have persistently thought about suicide. At night I dream of buying a gun, a bottle of whiskey, going to a motel room, taking a drink and putting a bullet in my head. Since I've never acted on the thought, not worried about just troubled by the reoccuring thoughts. Have been happy for only one brief period in my life, 32 years ago. Was in love for about a year. Never stopped loving her. Don't believe in psychiatry or religion. Bascially see life as a waste of time. Deal a lot with sickness and death in my calling. Just doesn't seem very fair. I work with folks who are fighting to stay alive . . . and I would gladly trade places with them. At 50, I'm just trying to live my life out to its natural end.

My son has been suffering from panic attacks now for a good two years. And after one happens he obviously becomes depressed from it. And me and my husband have tried nearly everything we can with him. We took him to therapist and such which makes me feel horrible already, but we also asked him to take medication, which he is really against. The worst part is, he had a difficult time coming to me when he has one. Now at 16 he does not come to me at all, and I feel horrible that I can't help, and asked myself constantly if it is my fault.

I am really just looking for a way to confront him on this, and comfort him during/after an attack.. And really try something that might help more then I have been trying, because his health and mental health means more to me than anything. Any advice will help.
thank you (:
