My mum has been feeling unwell for sometime - she always feels "bunged up" in her ears, and gets a swirling sensation in eyes and cant' see properly. The doctors keep telling her it's her imagination but I've seen her in this state and it's awful. Now one doctor has said it could be Menieres Disease but looking it up on internet, it says its an ear problem and only effects one ear, not the eyes. Any suggestions?

I am a 20 year old female. About 3 days ago,I started having back pain(upper and lower),weakness, tiredness,light headedness and headaches.You could say that I had flu symptoms. The funny thing is that there was NO fever at all and I have never felt this sick in my life, and last night I started getting this sharp crushing chest pain in my ribs and in the upper end of the sternum...could I possibly have pnemonia despite the fact that I never had a fever?..or could it be asthma?..(I do have a history of asthma,but the last time I had asthma I was a teenager)...oh and I think I've got some sputum,but I it never got out. I mean I can just feel it inside of my respiratory system, I didn't really see what it looks like.

I had a road accident when i was 17 and smashed my skull in, in the end they operated on me after many infections with the craneoplast that they were putting in my head, and they put in the other half of my skull (split in half) I had a nose job shortly after all this, but now i seem to get a headache every 4 to 5 days. Can anyone put their finger on what is causing these headaches.

For about a year or more now, I'm unable to actually make vigorous moments with my left arm because of the pain I incur when doing so. Some times i feel as if my arm is detachiing from my shoulder join, and some times I feel as if the the bones are touching each other. In fact , as result to the pain I incur when shaking my left arm, gives me the feeling that my arm is not stable in my shoulder boin. I don't really know what caused it because I can't remember any accident i had. I some times lift weights but now I am unable to do it. Please this is the best discribtion I can give. If there is any body out there to help please don't hesitate to do t so. Your advice or therapy shall be of great help and appreciation.Thanks

I was just laying there watching t.v. and my chest got numb. mostly in my neck right on the clavical (SPELLING?) then the chin, then my checks, and I have felt pain in the middle of each limb like on the back of the calf for weeks.
Pinched nerve maybe?
or something worse? I do have a physical job on ladders and stuff. I paint murals.

I work third shift and sometimes find it hard to stay asleep for more than 4 hours during the day. This usually happens if my schedule is interupted by a week long vacation. It is hard to get back into the schedule. So, I would like an over the counter sleep aid to help me until my sleep patterns return to normal(for me). Any suggestions?

My arms are really weak and I'd really like to tone them up for the summer. Thing is I need to start with something that I can actually do because I am, as I said, pathetically weak. Any ideas?

My ex-girlfriend is suicidal and has suicidal tendencies—she has been to a mental hospital. She calls me up and tells me she wants to commit suicide since I am not with her anymore and that I am with someone else. If she actually does this successfully will someone come to my house and tell me what happened, will it be in the news or will her parents call my number and tell me? Will a hotline contact me?

How long will it be before someone decides to commit suicide off of the newly opened Skywalk over the Grand Canyon? How long before a stunt junkie does a base jump off of it?

I am always having problems with ingrown nais on my big toe... I usually keep my toe nails quite short (almost non-existent since i have tiny feet) but every 2-3 months or so, my big toe starts hurting and then i see that the nail has grown inwards! Then the whole things start, i cut-pull it out, it becomes infected for a couple of weeks, maybe 1-2 months then its ok.... really weird!

Ive been on Prozac now for about 6 months, it was prescribed for extreme anxiety. I want to come off it now, mainly because im scared of the long term effects and its also effecting my sex drive.

Last week I tried to wean myself off, im usually on 40mg, so I tried 40mg and 20mg alternately for a week, at the end of the week I felt awful, I felt nauseous, tired, moody, slightly depressed and really anxious.

Will there always be side effects when coming off of Prozac or is it just a sign that im not ready to yet

Any info would be really helpful.......thanks :o)

My periods seem to be too long. I used to think that they last 7 days. But eversince I actually wrote it down, I've discovered that it actually lasts 10 days. Sometimes 11 or even 12, if you count the slightest spotting. Usually there's spotting for a few days, heavier flow for about 2 days, and the rest spotting again. Last period I've had spotting for 4 days before the heavier flow. I've read that a "normal period" should be 7days maximum. Do I have an irregular period then? Is there anything I could take (like herbal stuff) to make it shorter?
