I have these little bumps all over my legs. They look like little masquito bites, or like dry skin bumps. They itch just a little, but not very much. They are coating my legs too. Please tell me what is wrong with my legs!

My doctors are stumped, family and rheumatologist. What is happening is that I have swollen joints and muscles. Rheumatoid (as stated to me) only has swollen joints and that area, but I have swollen tops of the feet and hands, face, eyes etc. etc. etc.

They have taken lots of blood tests and have determined a "guess" that it is rheumatoid arthritis but they can't explain my other symptoms which inlcude the following:
- swollen odd parts of body
- stomach problems with select foods
- sensitivity to chemicals that add extra swelling to rheumatoid areas and odd muscles
- muscle weakenss, only walk short distance and then too weak
- breathing problems with asthma and bronchitis
- headaches
- light is too bright sometimes

My major blood tests (a lot of them) rules out common muscles diseases and other types of diseases.

I haven't tested for allergies, can these be symptoms of allergies? Even swollen body? I can't walk without walker or cane.

Thank you.

I just went to Pittsburgh children's Hospital b/c my ped. thought that my daughter may have osteogenesis imperfecta...that has been ruled out.....but the genetic doctor has concerns with her eyes b/c she has blue sclera...which is the white part of the eye that has a blue-grey tinge to it....does anyone know what else this could be since the "brittle bones disease" was ruled out?

here i'll just give you the message lol-
haha okay. well it turns out katie has strep, but she said the doctor was stupid and said she has mono, but then she went to another doctor that says she has a sinus infection, so her mom took her to one more doctor, and he finally said strep, and then got it approved by another doctor. lol. but she's had it for a week, so she'll only have it for a little while longer! yay!


p.s.....i know what a sinus infection is but what are the other ones!!

I am on lo- estrin birth control. I have been on it for two months and have been on other hormonal birth control for a year before that. My boyfriend and i are careful. we either use a condom or pull out. we don't just rely on the birth control. however, I have been havcing many side effect from hormonal birth control. this month i had a bit of breakthrough bleeding as usual, nothing big. now i am supposed to get my period, it is my period week. i had a bit of spotting but didn't even need a tampon. now it's halfway thorugh the week and nothing. whereas i normally have a fairly considerable or heavy flow by now. I have a bit of mild cramping and wicked pms. i want to eat and crave chocolate. but no period. is this a normal side effect or should i be concerned? should i call my ob/gyn? or take a prego test in about a week if nothing? should i continue my birth control?

thanks, all.

I just bought my HRM after Christmas and have really enjoyed it. However, I have often wondered about the accuracy of the calories burned. I can't really find any information on the web about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I started taking Lexapro less than a week ago. I was already having my normal spring allergies. Is it possible that side effects from my Claritin (yes I checked with my doctor) AND the Lexapro combined is why I'm feeling sooo much worse than past years? Sleepy, burning eyes, dry mouth, icky taste in mouth...scratchy throat...etc

I have oily skin in some places and dry spots in others. I have black heads on my cheeks and nose. My face is red and sometimes itchy. I have tried many products including acnefree, head and shoulders shampoo, natures cure, witch hazel, biore, clear pore, neutrogena advanced solutions, clearasil, a homemade face mask with honey,nutmeg, cinnamon, and lemon, clean and clear, oxy and olay. My mom says proactiv is to expensive and acnefree burns my face and sensitive skin products dont work at all. I have told my mom to take me to the dermatologist she keeps saying she will and keeps putting it off. What more can I do?

I dont excercise much, ok not at all. I have lost weight due to diet, but i need to tone up. I got a video "kickboxing for dummies" and it seems pretty fun. Is it good for you? Will it work or am I wasting my time?
