My mom has cronic cough and when they did an X-ray they reported pneumonia in the right lung with "patchy nodule infiltrates" the the left lung? My mom is a 40 year old non smoker but I am very worried about the "patchy nodules" because I read that 30% of them are malignant and that the 5 year survival rate of lung cancer is only 15%. I am absolutely freaking out and would really appreciate some information. Could the nodules be due to the pneumonia or could this be cancer?

i am on a diet to lose less than 10 pounds, but i want this to be a new way of life so i am not thinking of this as a diet and than go back to old bad eating habits. this is a permanent way of eating. anyways, isn't that eating too much food?

I've read about Hoodia (I know you have to get the CERTIFIED kind!) .. and I was just wondering if anyone has used it for weight loss and if it works???
I just had a baby 2 and a half months ago .. and I still have 30lbs of baby weight to lose, I need all the help I can get!

Also, my question is:
does Hoodia speed up your metabolism???? because right now I'm hypo-thyroid. Can I still take Hoodia being Hypo-thyroid (under-active thyroid)
THANKS!

**I'm not breastfeeding anymore.

Most of my life my b.p. has been normal, really perfect. Twice now it has been high, once a few years ago from a medication interaction that lowered my sodium dangerously, and my b.p kept going up, and the past month or so its been high.

Generally I was only getting it checked when in the Dr.s office for other things, like an ear infection or my annual exams. In the past two months, there have been three visits, and all three were high. This past time, they actually kept me for a couple of hours to keep taking it, gave me something to lower it, and sent me home with instructions to take it twice a day for a week. Its now 162/110, after just hanging out with my dogs on a sunny afternoon in the backyard. I thought it may be another medication thing, since I have been taking Allegra or Zyrtec the past few months for allergies and ear problems, but I haven't taken them for two days and its going up. Any ideas?

h, I feel ashamed to admit I hate myself, I'm lonely and I want to die, bc I'm a Christian (and that is all that's keeping me here. It's the ONLY reason I've got). And bc everyone thinks I'm smart and that I have it all together. I feel like even if I look for help, even the shrinks won't give a shiht. I wouldn't know where to look anyway. I have no money for help either. I sleep like 18 hours every day. I don't have any dreams. I can't do any work. I have a speech tomorrow and I haven't even read what it's about. I'm gonna flunk college. Good. Then I won't have to go anymore. Nobody would care if i left but my mom.

I've never felt like this before. I've always been normal, never emo. Why doesn't God just let me go home? Why am I writing this here.

For about the last year or so I've had periods of time lasting for months in which I have a headache just about every day and feel completely drained. There is no substantial change in diet or stress level during these periods of time. Why are they happening? Are there any herbal remedies or home remedies that I could try before seeing a doctor?

I am in 8th grade and haven't started my period. I have awful cramps every now and then and headaches and i am having mood swings for some reason tonight. I have that nasty white discharge. I am 5' 2 and like 96 pounds. Can anyone give me some idea of when i might get it. ( and someone said your surroundings can effect it, but i don't think living on a farm in Wisconsin would effect that)

I am not very happy with my teeth... a couple are crooked and i have a small overbite and there is not enough space in between my teeth... they are really close together, but the dentist said i really dont need braces. I WANT BRACES!!! I like the way they look, and I HATE my teeth. What are some ways i can make my teeth worse so I can get braces? Or... What should I say to my dentist to let him know I am not happy with my teeth?
