I am unsure how to ask this question. I took a shower before bed last night. after my shower I layed down, about 30 minutes later I got up again to go to the rest room and felt an uncomfortable pain in my back. I assumed that it was because I layed on my back which is not the position I am used to sleeping in. I went back to bed. As the night progressed the pain got worse and I found it difficult to even roll over. It hurt too bad. In the morning the pain had not gotten any better and I had difficulty geting out of bed. I was unable to stand up straight and it hurt to breathe. I have not done anything strenous nor have I lifted anything heavy. About 1 1/2 hours after I got out of bed the pain subsided. The pain is still there but not as bad as it was through out the night. It is actually tolerable. I am going to go to the doctor but I would like to know if anyone has ever experienced this and what could have cause it. Like I said I have not done anything strenous. Please Help. Thanks

I am interning at this place, and around a month ago they hired a second intern. We were sharing an office. Today I came in and he was leaving, I checked my email and apparently he had tested positive for TB twice and the section supervisor asked him to leave, and he wasn't coming back for a while?

Anyway... I've heard that TB is very infectious and there is no real cure. I've never heard of anyone getting TB in a non third world country. How likely is this? Is he going to be ok?

Do I have TB now? Is TB lurking around the office, and do I need to spray everything down with disinfectant?

Hi,

I had a small corner of my molar tooth break 6 days ago. Not much pain but was very worried about it. Went to my usual NHS dentist 3 days later and he said it should be a simple repair by filling.

However, since the pain has stayed and at times is worse than others. I'm taking 2 paracetemol 4 times a day which makes things bearable for a few days I imagine.

He took the filling out and has packed it instead. Says there is no reason why it should still hurt. Would have liked an X-ray however :-(

He said give it up to a week and see if the pain subsides.

Could it be a nerve problem in the area? Will this die in time?

How long should I give it tbefore going to the expense of a root canal?

There appears to be no infection, but should I get a course of anti-biotics just in case?

I really don't want to lose this tooth as I have lost my other main molar on the bottom left side and don't want to have problems chewing.

Thanks,

Lee.

what are some things girls do that annoy you, gross you out?
is it annoying or do you like it when a girl is the one that talks to you more often, i mean not all the time, but just so that you dont always have to be the one starting the conversation with her.

I don't really know how old I look to other people, so I want your honest opinion! Seriously, if I asked anyone close to me, they'll be all, "aw, don't worry, you look fine!"

Um. I know I look fine. I just wanna know how old people think I am at first glance.



Just curious. That's it.

I know they are harmful to my health and all you politically correct peons swear up and down you can't not be addicted, but I am. I can smoke a pack a day for 2 weeks and then quit for 2 weeks. I have done it many times. My mother is exactly the same. Could this be genetic? Or am I just psychologically and physicologically gifted? (serious responses only please, no opinions- just facts).

I had my wisdom teeth removed yesterday, and the surgeon perscribed me Vicodine for the pain. Well last night, it kept me up all night. It was very frustrating. Especially because it says on the lable that Vicodine causes drowsiness.

Have you ever suffered from this ailment to the point where you lost your ability to speak for small amounts of time, especially anyone who came back from war.

I have pulled a muscle on Monday (the muscle that runs from the top of my knee along the top of my theigh).

I have a fitness test on Sunday for my job that I only get one chance at - so i need my leg to be right by then. Does anyone know how I can get it to heal by then (I don't mind a quick fix, I don't care how much pain it gives me after the fitness test, I just have to pass the test which goes for about an hour).

Someone mentioned Physio or a Quaterzone injection - does anyone know about either of these two options - which would work best etc?

My mother always teases me about my weight and calls me fat and says I need to lose weight and it really depresses me. I sometimes cry about it. I am in competitive track and my mom says that I will never make it to the state level this fat. I have tried starving myself but I stopped that because I passed out during hurdle practice.
