I have over heard my doctor report personal findings about many people because she talks loud. Since, I have found another doctor and he talks loud too.
Does anyone else find this annoying and embarrasing?

I have been to 3 different doctors and they don't listen to me. I know I am not crazy. For about a year now, I have had pains in my neck, back, knees, feet, chest and pelvis. I have had headaches and an anxiety attack. The pain is always in different areas mentioned above. One day my back hurts, another day my chest and so on. I have had an MRI done on my chest, knee, and abdomen area. All are fine. Bloodwork is fine. Sometimes, I get a burning sensation on my thighs or lower back. I feel like I am falling apart. I am only 30 years old. The only problem I have ever had is a mitral valve prolapse. Has anyone had these symptoms? Any ideas of what it could be?I just want to add I wake up at night at least 3 or 4 times and constantly tired.

A woman went to the doctor's office, where she was seen by a young, new doctor. After about 4 minutes in the examination room, the doctor told her she was pregnant.

She burst out screaming, as she ran down the hall. An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was,and she told him her story. After listening, he had her sit down and relax in another room.

The doctor marched down the hallway to the back where the first doctor was and demanded, "What's the matter with you? Mrs. Terry is 59 years old, she has four grown children and seven grandchildren, and you told her she was pregnant!?"

The new doctor continued to write on his clipboard and without looking up said, "Does she still have the hiccups?"

My dads eyes are bleeding inside causing his vision to become blurry and will eventually cause blindness. What is the name of this condition? Also, their is a cancer drug treatment they can use to cure this condition but it isn't FDA Approved. Would you know what this drugs name is? I could contact my mom to find out but I'm not on speaking terms with her. I found this out through family. I'm afraid shes neglecting my dad by not getting him the treatment he needs, becasue of their money situation. Their insurance wont pay because drug isnt FDA approved

I know the red ones, the ones that start forming immediately, are dried blood. But what about the ones that are that yellowish-gray color? Is that from the plasma part of the blood, is it skin cells, or is it some other substance?

i personally have eaten a lot of fruits and vegetables (non organic because i only learned what organic food was about 2 years ago)
and im very skinny and healthy and strong. although i have eaten fast food hundreds of times, drank more than 100 gallons of soda prolly around 2000 gallons of soda i've drinken considering i drink soda everyday. pretty much i have eaten everything never been on a diet.

so i think its a lack of fruits and vegetables, what do you think?
