Health - 10 October 2007

Since I was 16 (20) i have had some crazy health problmes. One of which is that when my blood is tested for HIV i test false positive every time. There are three stages of an HIV test- Eliza and the wester blot. The Eliza is run and tested twice.. I test positive every time on the Eliza but Negative on the Confirmatory. My doctor says its a rare condition....

I guess?

But lately I have noticed whenever I get sick, i get very very sick and it takes me FOREVER to get better. i am starting to think there is a link to all my strange health problems... help?

When I was jogging today I was doing fine, nothing hurt, my heart didn't feel like it was going to fall out of my chest....

Until I started getting very painful cramps (or something like that) in my lower stomach area. After I stopped moving and sat down for a minute, they disappeared.

At first I thought that maybe it was because I just ate, but then I remembered I hadn't eaten for almost 2 hours.

What can I do so that I don't get horrible cramps like these again?

And yeah, sorry for the weirdness of this question. :)

why is that you can not give blood if you have gotten a tattoo or a piercing in the last year or if you are sick? A month ago the blood donation mobile center came to my school to take blood, my friend REALLY! wanted to give blood, and she had just had her tongue done a few months back, would of been bad if she did not tell them that it was a new piercing when she donated the blood? she had got her tongue pierced, but she had taken oiut....

I'm 31, divorced with a 7 yrs old son who is very disruptive in school, and doesn't get along properly with his classmates. I just moved to this city a year ago, and nobody from my family lives here. I feel in love with a guy I know since I was 12, but he lives in US (I'm in Mexico), and we "started" a relationship in sep 21, but I obviously feel this is not a real relation, but I do love him. He can't live in Mexico 'cause he is divorced too and his daugther lives in US, I can't go there 'cause I don't have money to get a visa. I have a good work, but I'm earnig less than the last year, and my expenses are the same, so I barely have money to afford them. Besides my son attendes the same school where I work, and I feel very stressed with all the complains that I've got from his teachers, and I fear to lose my job because of it (I lost my previous job because of that). I know that I'm young, even pretty and intelligent, but emotionally I'm awfully wrong. And this has been since I was 15

I have recently started having very bad sweating attacks at night. The pillow and duvet can be wrung out afterwards. I am 43 years old and taking Simvastatin and asprin. I also have a slightly raised blood sugar level (7.9 on last test). What is causing these? I am not over weight and do not smoke, and I do not drink excessively.

We took him for xrays and his doctor noticed a shaded area near the lungs that she said is probably his thymus gland, but it wasn't where it normally is. Now she has sent us to get ct scans. What might be wrong with him if it isn't asthma?

I really don't know what's up with me! I keep on seeing things in the middle of the night, I think I must be half asleep or something. How do I stop it? Like I'll wake up and swear I see spiders climbing up and down the walls and I'll turn the light on and nothing will be there, and last night I looked up and there was a hedge infront of my face that slowly merged into the wall! It's really crazy but it has started happening a lot recently. I haven't been watching anything about spiders or hedges before i go to bed! Also when I think I see spiders I start to panic and sort of have a mini panic attack or something, it's really horrible. Any suggestions how to stop this please? I'm not on any medication and I don't smoke the funny stuff!

Okay, so I know fruit is good for you.. of course. But does it help you lose weight? Isn't fruit full of sugars and such? Just curious b.c I know when people diet they usually use fruit as fillers or snacks.
