My teeth and gum are in perfect situation, I have no problem in my mouth, my dentist told me it can be a problem with my digestive system. I checked with a doctor and he prescribed my two tests, blood and poop but the results are due to friday. I wonder what the bad smell could be due to. Ever had such an experience?

He is now in pain with a cramping feeling in his chest that he says feels like being on a roller coaster. He cant sleep til this pain has gone. He tried gaviscon last night and anti sickness tablets but they didnt work. What can he do to make this pain go away as everything he is eating he is bringing up again. He had a co codamol but it came up again.

I have chronic back and knee pain.

The doctors can't find a cause but it makes my life a misery although I am lucky as it doesn't get worse with activity so I can still lead an active life.

Any advice or tips on dealing with it? Do you eventually just get "used" to it?

Hi y'all,
I still wish someone really could lay on the details on how exactly HIV virus a.k.a. AIDS can be transfered through oral sex:
1.) if the female has HIV/AIDS and giving her male partners a fellatio/oral sex without condom, can this transfer it?
2.) if the female has HIV/AIDS and kissing her male partners, can this transfer it?
It's vice versa for the male too, can these transfer it?

I'm in my early 20's, and I've been having a really hard time functioning in society. I'm really smart, I'm a hard worker, but I just can't seem to find my way. I can't seem to function in the work place, or in school. Does anybody have any good ideas about what line of work would be good to go into for someone like me? I want to be able to support myself.

I realised something after this weekend when a few (in hindsight mostly trivial) events in my life sent me into a real spiral for a few days and some crazy notions crossed my mind, that I might have a bit of a problem. I thought everyone has moments of feeling down... but I think for me it's more than just a cute personality quirk. If it wasnt before, it is now... I think it's a problem and I dont think I should ignore it anymore.

I have a few questions - as these are intense but brief bouts that come and go and last only a few days, what would be the best approach to getting some sort of help? Its non emergency, and Im coping, I just want to deal with it while I am still coping. Should I go to my GP initially perhaps?

Would I have any say in the treatment I got? I dont want pills if I can help it.

Would getting help necessarily become something that people I know around me would have to find out about? I want to deal with it, but privately.

Thanks in advance for your help

I was told I have strep throat, I'm on antibiotics. I am still fevering badly, I woke up this morning completely drentched again in sweat, my clothing all wet and my bed sheets, is this normal when breaking a fever? It usually happens about 2 - 3 hours after taking tylenol or advil. Is it safe to do it for days?

I seen a program last night where they advised this man that his blood pressure was high.

They told him that his pressure was x over y (eg 70 over 30)

Can somebody explain what this means please? The over bit.

Thanks

what must i do if i have these gay impulses and interests in me now that i'm an adult which most likely sprung from my childhood history of being sexually exploited? i enjoy gay porn to release my urge, male encounters also but i just don't like the feeling after though i look straight and deep in my mind I wanna be straight, i just give in to temptations so quickly. what must i do? i wanna have a family. i really really really don't want to be gay (no offense to the gay community) all my life but i don't know how to escape or just live with it?

over 10 years ago I was put on benzodiazipens and imipramine for agoraphobia and it works. I have not upped the dose of either one. But the drugs help me. I still have problems sometimes with new places etc. But I have gotten some very good therapy and would like to try a drug free exsistance. I know after more than 10 yrs. I am very addicted to the benzo's. I don't need a run down on what that means. But I am terrified to try and come off them (i guess it would be detox..right?) VERY terrified!! I can stay on the drugs or try and see how life is without them, but first I would have to do the withdrawal thing. What would you do? REALLY???

I popped my hemroid at my friends house the other day with some of his eating forks and he kept yelling at me that it was contagious. I guess my question is which would be better next time a fork or a knife? Also is it possible to have a hemroid growing on top of another hemroid?

I have a nice appetite for food so that during every meal, I eat more than enough. And it's taking its toll on my stomach; I am growing pot belly and love handles on my waist. I know the key is in my diet. But how can I lessen this overflowing craving for food, food, and food?

Thank you.

1. How many times a day should I put Visine for Contacts in my eyes?

2. Today, will be my second day with contacts, they are colored, is it normal for my eyes to be itchy and red?

3. How can I keep my contact from rolling around in my eye and from folding over? They're so soft and delicate!

4. What does it mean if your head feels light-headed and al of a sudden you see little colored specks that very fast, take over your eyes and you can't see and then it fades away?
