I've been under a lot of stress lately (work issues, planning a wedding, buying a house, etc.) and last night when I was out walking my dog something weird happened to my heart. It felt the same as it does when it changes it's rythm but it did it three times in a row. My chest hurt, I got dizzy and it was hard to catch my breath for a few seconds. I was fine as soon as it stopped, a little shaken up but physically I felt fine.

Is this from the stress? I've had it happen before when I've been pretty stressed but never three times in a row like that. Is it something I should talk to a doctor about?

For the record, I'm a 23 year old female, eat well, exercise often, I suffer from seasonal allergies (they're pretty bad) and asthma.

Thanks in advance!

I am 27, and I have had reactive hypoglycemia since I was 18. I have learned how to control it, and I pretty much never have candy, and rarely have desserts. I drink every once in awhile, but make sure i balance it with protein. If I were to quit eating white flour, sugar, alcohol, etc., COMPLETELY for awhile, would that cure it indefinetly?

Hi,
Im 17yrs old and have recently been diagnose with Fibromyalgia. I have been sick for the last 5 years. I now do school by correspondence because I am too sick to attend. I have had various tests run on me and some blood tests have been positive.

Is Fibromyalgia a recognised condition and what exactly is it??

Have you had a "wastebasket" diagnosis?

Thanks :)

this is a very strange question, but I'm wondering if its possible to somehow strain your bladder muscle. I have suddenly had a lot of pain in my lower abdomen right where my bladder is. Its fine if Im laying down, but if I stand up and move the wrong way I have a shooting pain. However that is my only symptom. I cant figure out what could be wrong. I appreciate your help.

I usually go the gym first thing in the morning. I've been going on an empty stomach. I bring my water bottle & drink the whole time. I have heard conflicting information on what is best to do, eat something before a work out or not? I want to get the best out of my work out so what do I do? And if I am supposed to eat, what should I eat & how much? Thanks!

I just woke up and am starving. I've been revamping my diet to a much healthier one but light yogurt and cereals don't sound good today. Any healthy breakfast suggestions? (p.s. I'm a vegetarian).

I'm 20 years old and have never really had any history of heart problems.

But today and the day before, in the mornings, I've been having quite severe chest pains localised at the heart-region.

It's like a dull ache. No pain spread anywhere else (i.e. arms or jaw), but I do feel faint and a bit dizzy. I'm not sure if this is psychosomatic though.

The pain makes me have to lie down and recuperate. I'm not sure what could be causing it. The pain isn't acute or severe enough for me to seek immediate medical attention. I mean I could still read at the same time, or have a conversation ; I'd just have to lie down and not focus on the pain.

Any ideas on what this is?

I am taking Percocet for kidney stones. My job requires random urine drug tests. Will it show up on the drug test? I don't do drugs. Will they believe me if it came back positive that it's percocet for a health reason?

Several months ago I got a high pitched "ringing" in my ears. It went away after a few days. Yesterday, the ringing started again in one ear. It doesn't hurt, annoying when I focus on it. Is there any home remedy? I've never had ear or allergy problems.

My husband bumped into my heel with a shopping cart about 5 weeks ago and i got a preety good gash that bruised a little bit. after a few days, I noticed it started to look a little bit infected, i begane cleaning it alternately with peroxide, anti-biotic ointment and alcohol, the redness and bruising had been gone for 3 weeks or more, I still have a preety deep yellowish scab and just over the last day the area above the scab and moveing up my leg is swelling (my left leg is not)
I feel morw aware of my ankle, not really pain, a littlle stifness like the skin is tight.I cant see the inside ankle bone any more and just above that point, I feel a slight pinch, again not really pain. Should I be seen? or should I try ice and anti -inflamatory first?
