They can't use over over the counter drugs, or prescriptions.

What kinds of natural remedies do they use?

I have been having some trouble lately, from exhaustion to swollen sore lymphnodes, to mood swings and sore throat that somethings feels like it is sweeling. I have been to the doctor and had bloodwork and it is all normal. They gave me penicillian and told me to come back a the end of 7 days and we would go from there. For months my hands and the joints of my hands have been sore and tender. I rub them and although it is sore it is somewhat of a relieving ache. My right knee clear down my calve is very sore. My feet ache, I am so tired all of the time and sometimes feel like I just cant go anymore. I have headaches that are sometimes mild and others are enough to make me lay down. I sometimes get low grade fevers for no reason at all. When I am feeling my worst, everything that goes on in my house seems amplified by a million. I also get these dizzy spells at times and I begin to sweat, yet bloodwork shows nothing.....My boss mentioned to me to ask my doc about CFS?

Whenever I am in stressful situations my face gets really red. I'm not like a red head or anything either. For instance like pictures for prom were a nightmare because my face turns red. What can I do?

i have an overbite, it's not that bad though. when i smile you can see half of my bottom teeth, but if i have my top and bottom molars touch, my top teeth in the front cover my bottom teeth. do i need braces? my teeth are very straight compared to to the other teens in my class. but i think my teeth are a bit small. is there anything i can do to fix that?

I need to buy one of those portable folding cups so that I can brush my teeth at school and other places I just got braces, and the orthodontist strongly emphasized that I must brush my teeth after every meal.

So, where?

Losing someone is terrifying as some of you may know.
but i was just wondering what symptoms or effects/affects does it have on a person, and how does it vary?
what was it like for you?
do you know how it has effected someone else?
do you know if you had any physical problems or phantom illnesses afterwards, or did someone you know suffer in that way?
did you shut it out? or cried all the time? were you agressive to people? did you ever feel like you were going crazy, or were constantly paraniod? and what about?
a lot of questions i know - but im hoping with a little bit of understanding and a second opinion i can understand myself.

I'll apreciate any opinions, comments, sources, or first hand experience in this subject - they will all be taken notice of.
thankyou.
take care peops

Last night I went to the emergency room because I was in horrible pain, they diagnosed me with gall stones and said I would need surgery. However the surgeon was busy last night saving someone's life so I was told to call his office on Tuesday and make an appointment for the surgery. I was just wondering if any of you with experience what I should absolutely avoid eating in the mean time? I know that I'm not suppose to have fatty/greasy foods and such, but are there any other less obvious risky foods that I should avoid during the next few days? And what sort of foods would you recommend eating? Right now, I've got a bunch of fresh fruit and raw veggies, but I'm trying to find something that would actually be a meal, verses a snack.

Also, for those of you that have had your gall bladder removed, what was your recovery like? I just had a c-section and the recovery sucked.

Thanks so much for all your answers in advance.

Every once and a while, I will get a wart/bump/pimple-type-thing on my genital area. I am a virgin, so I know it's not an STD, but I'm still a bit worried. It kinda iches a little bit, but it's usually only one, sometimes two. Is this normal?

I drink a gallon of water a day before practice for whatever sport I'm doing. I usually drink that gallon over an hour or two hours.

My question is how much water a day is too much water (in gallons). And is there a certain amount of time I can drink that over (ie: drinking more than a gallon an hour).

About the vicinity of 110 american dollars for a 90 day supply. This includes shipping and handling. I looked around on the computer and found mixed results as far as the people it does or does not relieve.
In case you're asking, it's called alcis.

I just want an easy life so therefore any easy method that brings results & doesn't cause me a lot of stomach upsets...

She just had a mammogram done, and now we have to painfully wait for the news. I don't know what do say to her, how to feel. I feel guilty for going on with my life, not knowing what will happen. Has anyone else ever experienced this? I'm single, no children...she has no grandchildren and I'll be all alone if this is cancer. What do I do?
