What is a retroverted uterus?

What is an anteverted uterus?

If I had one of these would my gynocologist inform me during a pelvic pap exam?

My friend 25 years old now had a lumps in her both breast. She just take herbal medicines and didnt want to consult a doctor again because she was told that its already malignant. Shes still working and just bear the pain. she is single and young and she told me that she will just wait her time when it comes because she was already ready to die. I wonder how long she will live? I know she was in pain but she just hide this to us (her officemates) but in their home she was crying of pain. Were advising her to see a doctor but she refused to do so.

For two years, I had chronic hemroid problems. I constantly went to the doctor and was given creams, suppositories, etc. I requested a general surgeon to do a colonoscopy and was told I wasn't old enough to worry about anything serious and having a colonoscopy. I was 44 at the time. They told me again I had hemroids, and to change my diet, use stool softeners, etc. In January 2006, I went to the doctor again because I had an abrasion in the vaginal region. I was told I had a tear, and still had hemroids. By April 2006 the problem was still there. I went to my gynecologist because the "tear" was still bothering me. He pulled back the sheet, covered me up and told me to see an oncologist. Make a long story short, if they had done their job, I would have a 95% survival rate, instead of the 40-60% rate I have now been given. Stage 0 instead of Stage IIB. Would you sue? Is it a waste of my time and energy? I just can't decide what to do and would like some ideas from others.

I drank some Chai (spiced tea and hot milk) thinking the warm milk would help me sleep - now I am having the classical "can't sleep, mind is wandering, boy I must have had caffiene" thing going on.

I thought about trying benedryl - anyone know of anything else that might help me sleep?

Here's the story. 2 weeks ago i randomly threw up and had chills. that night i had a high fever of about 102, sweated out my sheets for three nights. i had a sore throat, swollen glands, nausea and a persistent headache and chills so i went to the clinic. the nurse swabbed me for strep, told me it came back negative but that they would culture it and let me know if it was positive later... no phone call (assuming it was negative) my boyfriend gets sick a few days later with similar symptoms and he gets tested for strep and its positive. several other people around me including my little sister, two coworkers and three friends have similar symptoms yet everyone gets rid of their illness within a few days. two weeks have gone by and i have only gotten worse!
-swollen lymph nodes
-weight loss
-vomiting
-chills
-dry cough and sneezing
-runny and stufffy nose
-fatigue
-stiff neck
-headache, nausea
-frequent vomiting
-shakiness (hypoglycemia probably)

PLEASE HELP! It's been 2 weeks of this!

Hi, I was in a bicycle accident when I was 7 and lost my two front teeth. I have had a flipper since then. Then when I was about 14 I had to have 3 root canals done on my two teeth right next to the flipper and one molar. I take good care of my teeth but they are super soft and my dentist recommened getting a bridge because one of the root canals now needs to be extracted...so that will be 3 teeth I'm missing in the front and then I will still have 2 root canals. My teeth are always in constant pain and are EXTREMELY sensitive. I just want to pull them all and get dentures but I don't know how much it would cost...or if its the right thing to do. I'm sick of dealing with all of this and I'm only 25.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions???

I've had conditions in the past regarding my stomach and the pain I feel, real deep pain in my gut for about 5 to 7 seconds and then it goes away. The doctor on base here suggested Aciphex but that doesn't seem to help anymore. I do not wanna go to the doctor and go through all these tests like blood drawn, x-ray on stomach, stool sample, its just too much and I feel their doing it to maximize their incomes and business. Please someone give me some ideas as to what I should take or if someone else has gone through these problems I'd love to hear from you, Sincerely; Mike in Kuwait

Normally we would only peed in bed when we were little. But then when I was in high school, 14-15 years old, I started to pee in bed a few time (well not every night, its more like twice a year - but still weird) and then I stopped, I would woke up and go to the toilet myself. But just recently, I peed twice in two weeks! I had a dream that I went to the toilet but end up I was peeing in bed! No one knows about this, I'm too embarrassed to tell my mom. But do you think I have some kind of a psychological problem? Cause I heard a few times and read a few article that if we peed in bed after the age of 8, then it's not normal and it could be associated with a psychological problem. Well, I live a normal life, my parents loved me, and I'm happy with my life - so I don't think I have that problem. Whats wrong with me?! Have anyone of you experience this?

I was reading about how sugar sends your body on an insulin rollercoaster ride. Would cutting sugar and eating a normal amount of fat make you loose a lot of weight? Or would it be better to cut fat and eat a normal amount of sugar?
