I have about 20 spread out small red bumps on the bottom of my left breast and a small patch of discoloration about half an inch in length and width that's kind of peeling. it's not itchy or irratiating, and it doesn't hurt. What is it? and I'm 14 years old.

Does any have any personal experiences with an IUD? I heard you can have some side affects.

I only want to hear from women who have used this birth control method please!

VLCD=Very Low Calorie Diet. I only want to be skinny because I have really big "melons" (DD) and big calve muscles, which I hate. Or how about eating 1 meal a day? And don't say your metabolism will slow down, because my metabolism is already so slow. And I would never have any unnecessary surgery.

I have PTSD because my illness and my father's illness occurred at the same time. I was 16 (currently 19), and I had end stage renal failure so I had to go on dialysis for one year. I had alot of surgeries, and then I had a transplant (my mom gave me one of her kidneys). While I was on dialysis, they were testing my dad to see if he was could be a donor and they found out that he had throat cancer (never smoked a day in his life). Right now, I'm having a really hard time because I can't remember anything about either of these illnesses. Obviously I know they happened but I can't remember any details. I feel like a huge chunk is missing. Also, I feel really guilty about being sick in the first place and basically taking someone's body part. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this (especially the guilt part)? If so, what strategies did you use to get through it? Were people understanding, or how did you get people to understand? Is it even healthy to remember things like that?

She had been sick this whole week and my sister had been there every day. They told my sister that her blood work suggested she had an infection of some sort and they did an x-ray (said it was clear). This was Wed. a.m. and the doctor there prescribed antibiotics. They were never given to her!
This morning two of my sisters called an ambulance and now she is thankfully in the hospital but she has pneumonia, a severe bladder infection (her urine looke liked coffee!) and her blood was way too thin.
She may not make it and I can deal with this since she is in poor health and 82, but that is rediculous that they hadn't given her any antibiotics as prescribed and hadn't even checked her urine!
We aren't ones to sue but something should be done, shouldn't it?
Advice?

I have had this pimple on the top of my chest for a while now. Since I was a junior or senior in high school and now I am in my second year of college. I know it is not normal, and it just won't go away! It is big, red, and hard. Should I see a dermatologist or are there any at home treatment, or should I just putting it? Because a visit with the dermatologist can be very expensive.

I understand that added muscle on your frame burns more calories so it helps to lose weight. Then I heard a Dr. on the radio say that as you build muscle and strength your body is more efficient and needs less calories to operate. So who's right?

Hi...I just recently went to the allergist and got tested for my allergies. Needless to say, I am allergic to EVERYTHING (from grass to dogs). I've been on Zyrtec for the past 5 years+ and it really helps me but it makes me really tired. My allergist is recommending allergy shots to help me but I'm not really sure what to do. Since my allergies are so high (about 9-10 on scale), how long will it take me before I become immune. I would really appreciate any input on anyone who has been on shots or is currently on shots. Do they help that much? Thanks so much! :)
