Ive been using Benzamycin on my face and it was working for a bit then it stopped working, then I found if you put acne face wash on your face, and leave it over night that it makes them go away, then they got really badand dried out my face super bad, now I have scars, acne, and a really dry face, Oh and a acne medication that really expensive and not working, any ideas?

I recently had a blinding sensation in my eye then couldn't see anything horizontally down in that eye, something felt strange with my right arm and leg (felt disconntected) then when I tried to speak to someone I was talking nonsense and couldn't even think of what I wanted to say. After about ten minutes these problems stopped and got a headache. Since then i have been extremely bad tempered and can't seem to sit still for very long and have been sleeping about 11 hours a night (for 3 weeks now). These are differences most noticable but things that I'm not sure if i'm immagining keep happening like I think my hand is shaking but when i look i'm not sure if it is, i'm very noticably forgetful and get confussed easily.
I've seen my GP and a Neurologist and am waiting for blood test results and to have a brain scan. He told me it could be anything from a migraine to a stroke or diabetes.
Going mad sitting at home worrying what is wrong with me - any of the above could lose my job.

I have seen these products advertised through the ASG and am thinking of placing an order. Has anyone tried their products and if so what were the results? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated from fellow skin sufferers. Ta. XX

I tried to sleep but I have a nerve pain extending from my lower back all down the backside of my thighs, legs, and around my ankles...it's the worst feeling in the world. I know its not a muscle pain because I haven't been working out. It's a nerve pain. I have been sleeping for longer than usual lately...and have had a pretty lethargic schedual this week...not much moving around. I just know that I can't go back to sleep because the pain is SO sharp!! What could this be?

Does anybody know what causes gums to recede? I brush and floss and diet is good. Is there a mineral/vitamin supplement that might help?

My daugher has a huge problem with dandriff and it is severe. She is also going through hormonial changes as she is a pre teen, so she has acne also. Should a dermitologist be able to cover both issues? Is this the type of doctor I should use for both? I have already spoken to 2 hairdressor's and have tried all they have suggested. I have not seen any beneficial changes at all.

Thank you

At the end of last year i was in hospital for an operation, this was a thyroid op, the risk was losing my voice my main concern, as im under 21. this is was fine tho i had great support from family and more importantly my amazing close friends, i cant thank them enough.
However before the operation i was told by the gp i was suffering from depression, which they offered me tablets, i refused as i dont believe i was that bad and dont believe in taking tablets, so much so i went through op with no pain killers after it! im not proud of this its just personal choice.
Recently i have been low but i dnt think im depressed i have lost my appetite, not sleeping to great and have lost all my energy. this was similar to before operation.
does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong or how i can help myself, i really want to get me back and this isnt me.
also due to the operation i av scar on front of neck and throat this has effected me wi confidence.

any ideas please honest answers!

I have a bit of a phobia about general anaesthetics, and some of the statistics are quite alarming.

CT scans show an inflamed appendix, which has led to a thickening of the colon wall due to inflammation in the right iliac fosse. They think it could either be a straight appendectomy, or an appendectomy with a hemicolectomy where the colon is inflamed. Another CT scan is required.

To be honest i am cr@pping myself at the thought of this surgery, not because of the pain, which I couldn't care less about, but the whole general anaesthetic thing is worrying me. Is this a routine op. should I be worrying? I would like some reassurance really.

My son who is 11 has some kind of rash or something. Its the same colour as his skin and its on her arms, legs, chest, just about everywhere besides his face. His skin feels very rough, everyhwere his skin for some reason does not have any moisture.

I have made him take hot long baths every night and then towelling him off.

Is there any past expierences or anything that if your son or daughter had and how you fixed it? If it did what was the age when they had it- It can be very important

thanks!

i was born with a heart condition called Tetralogy of the Fallot and i also have developed a problem with that called Pulmonary Stenosis. Me and my husband really want to have a baby in the near future but i am unsure if it will be safe or not, i have heard mixed answers. And I might have to go have another open heart (third) in the next year so now im really not sure. I am going to talk to my cardiologist about it on friday but I wanted peoples thoughts or advice who have been through high risk etc pregnancies, what do I ask the Dr. specifically and do I need to see a specialist besides my cardiologist? If it is a slight risk is it worth it. People have mentioned adoption but for since I can remember I have wanted nothing more than to carry my own baby and experiance everything that goes with it, and I want to give my husband a child. I really want to think about a baby soon I just want some advice. Thanks!
