I have it in both of my thumbs, and somedays, its just so painful.
I have an urge to bandage it up really tight so it squeezes on them. But it doesnt really help.

but not even know it. My mother went to a cardiologist today and he told her she had a slight heart attack. She can't remeber being in any pain. Does this happen often?
She is 60 years old.

I recently was very sick and my doctor recommended Mucinex D to help with the symptoms. While I was taking it, I also seemed to help with the stuffiness and cogestion related to my allergies and I felt very clear. I was just wondering if it would be safe to take this daily?

I have pain in my left unla when waking up that spans about 2 inches. Pain began about 2 weeks ago. Any ideas on what might cause this to occur? The pain seems to ease off greatly when I am awake, but returns upon waking. I am not involved in sports or have had no injuries. My only pre-existing conditions are hypothyroid and insulin dependent type 2 diabetes. (injected insulin). Thank you in advance.

Hey 2 days ago I started to feel very tired and worn out. I thought maybe it was the heat so i drank a lot of fluids. The next day I went down to my parents for my mother's bday and my grandfather was with us which he is a MD for about 50 years and still practicing at 84 years old. He checked my lungs and heart and said everything sounded fine and my blood pressure was very good. I dont know what this can be he said it may be from allergies or the fact that I live with my fiance in her parents place and the parents smoke all the time. I woke up today and I just feel terrible sore legs and my body is hot with a sore throat and even my face is hot its not a fever though I did not have one last night and it still doesnt feel like I do. someone shed some light

I got sick June 30... I was showing symptoms of a cold that had been going around - a cough and a fever. Only everyone around me got better within a week or so.

I had crap in my lungs for the entire month of July. I kept trying to keep up with my workouts anyway, but it was hard since my breathing was hindered.

I finally saw my doc today - he gave me antibiotics and ordered a chest x-ray - said I had "bacterial pneumonia".

Other than having crap in my lungs, I have felt perfectly fine. Did I cause my cold to become pneumonia by continuing to work out while sick? Should I now take a week off and wait for the antibiotics to kick in?

I have always suffered from constipation and hard stools. Well the last few days my stools have been extremely hard and it hurts so much while I use the bathroom. I've gotten a little worried the past two times because when I go there is lots of blood afterwards. It doesn't continue bleeding only while I'm using it. And there is lots of blood, bright red blood. I'm not sure if it's because I'm tearing when I go or if it's something more serious. It's really scared me. Also I had a baby not too long ago so is it possible that I might have hemorroids and I am tearing them? What should I do? I'm thinking about seeing a doctor but what kind of doctor should I go see?

Online resources say that it's a myth that you can pick them up from public toilet seats or casual contact. The same resources say that they die without blood in 24 hours. If that's true, then why do you need to boil sheets and clothes? Why not just wash them in the laundry and leave them unused for a long while 'till they die?

It doesn't cure anything. your still going to get outbreaks, and your still contagious during an outbreak and whenever the virus is present. symptons or not.

What can I do about heartburn? I seem to be getting it an awful lot these days. I take Rennie and bicarb and they work for a while but it comes back.

How often do you get outbreaks? And how bad / what are the symptoms when you do get one?

I've had it for two years, in the last year I've had about 6 outbreaks. OK, they are practically unnoticeable, but I am curious about others, because I was told when I got it 50% of people with genital hsv1 never get another outbreak. I guess I must just be unlucky. My sister didn't get one for six years after her primary.

Just curious about how others are finding it, I suppose.

way as to not come off crazy, even though perhaps I am. I have spent the better part of the last three years stressing myself. I mean heart pounding daily, tranquilizers, psychotropics that only made me more stressed. I have done damage I know that, I have hurt those around me who are not well psyhically. As bizarre as this sounds and trust me it sounds bizarre to me. I was wondering if I were to give my life so that another could live would that make up for all the damage I have caused those that love me. I mean I would hurt them I know that but another good person could go on if I were to take a bullet that was meant for them or ............ok I am rambling like a psycho I know..............I am just trying to make sense of what I have done these past three years and this seems like the only way to make amends. Thanks
