There is something wrong with my left eye.
I went to the eye doctor and he said nothing is wrong, but I know there is- I can phsyically feel it / see it.
I don't think it's a lazy eye. Some days it seems to protrude more than my right, then some days it seems to be 'in' more than my right. (This is not my right eye that is doing this, I'm sure of it)
I can also feel it touching my eyelid- is it catching?
Also, it moves a little differently than my right, sometimes giving the apearence that it crosses, or is not looking in the same direction as my right.
I've always had a slight 'squint' to this eye, but it seems to be getting worse. Should I make another apointment with the eye doctor?
((Also last but not least, when I close my right and look just out my left- it's almost as though there is a small shadow? Like a fuzzy-visioned circle around my eye. And I cannot look as far to the sides as I can with my right eye. Is this serious? Please let me know- thank you!!

I went in for a physical August 10, and since then I have been back to the doctor 3 times for followup bloodwork because it turns out I have high conjugated bilirubin levels. I feel completely fine, and tests for mono and hepatitis came back negative. I do not have Gilbert's Syndrome, as they originally thought. However, I am getting a liver ultrasound tomorrow and was wondering what they are looking for and what could possibly be wrong with me?

So about 4-5 months ago I was diagnosed with an Adjustment Disorder(combo of depression and anxiety) and abandonement issues. I then started attending congitive therapy weekly for an hour. I'm still in therapy but today I talked to my therapist on the phone today and she told my that I am more depressed than she initially thought. She recommended that I see a doctor to see if antidepressents would be right for me. I gave her the okay to schedule an appointment or whatever.

I'm not looking for a cure in antidepressants. I know they won't solve my all my problems. I also know it might take a while to find the right one and that there are going to be symptoms in the beginning.

I was just wondering if it changes you? Will you seem like a different person to other people? Does it make you lose you appetite because I already have a problem with that. Does it make you not concentrate? Can it help me want to get out of the house and be around people. BTW I'm only 16.

I used to be an hourglass shape (36-24-36) but now my waist is a 29 and my hips are 36 and that's not curvy anymore. Now my body is a ruler shape. Ugh! What is the cause of this- my enemy said she prayed my body would be less curvy. I think her prayer came true. She said there's this supernatural force that always answers prayer no matter how bad the prayer is. I think once someone is born with the hourglass shape- naturally they won't lose it because they will gain weight in the same proportions(hips and waist) I think my figure change wasn't natural- it was a miracle. If there was no miracle I'd still have my hourglass shape.

I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed last friday (a week ago tomorrow) and the last 2-3 days i have been getting an aching in my teeth at night. It feels like it is more in my molars than it is in the actual holes where the teeth were. It also feels a little better when i press on my lower gums. Does anybody have any idea what this might be? I took 2 advil about an hour ago and it still throbbing and hurts. Thanks

I'm male, 24 years and I weigh 155 lbs. I would like to go down to 135-140 lbs. I usually combine cardio, weight training, and good healthy diet without any suplliments.

But as I notice, I'm becoming muscular and bulky. I would ideally like to loose weight and have the lean body mass instead of being muscular and bulky.

How do I do it?

Hey I'm trying to get pretty strong and I heard to drink raw eggs.
So should I drink them while working out? And how much should I work out?

I get up in the morning. My throat hurts. I got to school, and it feels better. The second I get home my upper throat begins to hurt. When it hurts is practically like clockwork. I just went back to school 2 days ago (when it began to hurt). Is it possible from the lack of sleep (getting up at 5:30 instead of 8:30), the fact that I have to talk extremely loud (I was practically screaming during my lunch period since I could barely hear a thing), and the possibility I caught something at school, that I got sore throat? Thanks for the answers!

I'm in highschool and I know it's weird but before I got my first HPV shot, I actually sort of enjoyed shots. Not that I enjoyed the pain but I'm just interested in medicinal things and i like to feel how the injection spreads through my arm....Anyway I went in for my shot and I obviously wasn't all that nervous because I didn't mind shots. I got the shot and about 5 or 10 seconds after i actually got poked with the needle, everything started to go spotty, then went black and i woke up on my back on the table. I had apparently keeled over sideways & my mom/the nurse had put me on my back. I was very nauseous and very very uncomfortable (I had never fainted before that). Several nurses came in to help and had me drink some juice. I had eaten 2 meals prior to recieving the shot. After a bit, the nurse helped me & I slowly sat up, then climbed down& the nurse was holding my arm while I was standing there when I passed out again. The nurse caught me & I woke up on the ground, on my back.

I have this anger thing, where I get really mad at my kids really fast. I have 3 under 5, and pregnant with #4. I'm under a lot of stress, and their father isn't much help as he works 15 hours a day 7 days a week. I only started getting this angry after my first was born. It went away, but as soon as #2 came 18 mos later, it was back, and worse. I actually could envision myself holding a pillow over my older child's face. I never did though. A lot of times, I actually feel like I hate my first born, even though he's only 4. I don't want to be around him, don't want him to talk to me, and I think I yell at him a lot more than the others. I still feel this way, and when I'm calm, and I sit down and actually think about it, it makes me cry and cry, cause how could a mother love one and not the other. Now, fast forward to now when #3 is 1 year old, I feel as if I hate kids, and i can't wait to get away from them. How could a mother feel this way about her kids? I'm scared.

Im a 29 year old female, I have a 2 year old son who is just wonderful. I have a decent job (hate the people) but the work is easy and the money is good. My marriage is for lack of a better word... redundant, both of us want to provide a stable loving home for our son but we arent necessarily "In Love". The issue is that Im sad all the time I cry at work (hiding in the bathroom) I cry at home, I cry in the car. I know it isnt normal - I had depression issues before but this is just overwhelming. When I was depressed I didnt care about anything, now I feel like I care too much about everything. I desperately want to just "snap out of it" but I cant I just feel like I want to run my car into a tree doing 90 the feeling is getting stronger everyday.

I used to be drop a deuce anytime I wanted. Then this IBS came along and I don't know what to think. The doctor says I have it so I believe him, but what he told me to do just doesnt work. The fiber he perscribed just doesnt do it. I try to go about 5 times a day, and about half the time I am able to get some out, but nothing relative to what goes in if you know what I mean. Laxatives seem to be the only way for me to have a real bowel movement. Whenever I try the old fashioned way I all I get is gas and maybe a 4 incher. I hate it. Any thoughts

Right now my index finger is still prune even after 3 days of being exposed to a lot of water and forms holes of skin that peel.

Why is it still like this?
