I am still sick with pneumonia going into my 6th week, the first 2 weeks I didnt see a DR untill by the 2nd week i was having a hard time trying to take a breath or even get the air in me to sneeze. At the end of the 2nd week I was forced to go to the doctor she was wanting to admit me in the hospital and I refused to go I do need to work. To week later I had to have more chest x-rays to confirm that I still have pneumonia. Now this is the 6th week and I am still sick.

This is the most strangest illness I have ever had in my life. I didnt get fluid in my lungs so I wast coughing up flem. So I didnt think anything about it.
my body temp is normal at 97.2 but for 2 weeks I was running temmps from 102 to 103. So I haad to go last Mon for more x-rays and I was told I still have pnuemonia and that I have to go back for more x-rays inn 2 more week.

I am not old only 48 and I am a type 2 diabetic

Does anyone anything about this pnumoina and why I have had it so long?

This has been the second time this has occured in the last two months. Taking over the counter stuff doesn't put a dent in it. I was wondering should I bother to go to the doctor or am I just being a hypochondriac.

Hi,
I am 20, and I will go to see my husband after a year apart. Because of all the waiting, I know he will be a little eager (hm).
I am VERY cautious. I was wondering, should I use BOTH condoms and birthcontrol pills?
I was also wondering, do birth control pills start working with the first one, or does it take a few days to get started?

I'm 16 years old for starters. For a week I had mild stomach aches, faintness and a touch of nausea. So I went in to my doctor and she said nothing seemed out of the ordinary, but perscribed me a stomach medication to bring the acids down, and also Celexa for a problem with aniexty & depression. Well ever since I started taking the medication, my stomach aches are more painful, I get faint and out of breath, I get the feeling of wanting to vomit although I haven't, and I can't barely eat anything without feeling sick. My mom believes its just the flu since my immunities are possibly down from all the stress, but I think its the stomach medication. Have any ideas what it could be?

I was on antidepressants and the made me hallucinate. I had never had any for of hallucinations before being on the medication. Could the hallucinations have just been hidden, and once I was on the medications it brought them forward? I've been off the meds for about 2 weeks and still am having visual hallucinations on an almost daily basis. It's only little things like bugs, no people like it was before. However, obviously I shouldn't still be going through withdrawal of a pill I only took for a little over a week! None of my current medications [mood stabalizers, anxiety, and one antidepressant Trazodone] should be making ma hallucinate or so my psychiatrist told me. So yeah, any ideas?

Any ideas? I'm doing a presentation for nutrition class on possible solutions or preventions to lower the obesity rate in our country. Here's what I thought of so far:

Require schools to have nutrition education in order to graduate (childhood obesity is a huge issue right now)

Ban junk food from schools (such as pizza, hamburgers, taco bell, etc) and have more salad bars with a variety of food to teach children how to make healthy choices.

Have more restaurants who offer smaller portion sizes (like TGI Friday's "right portion, right price")

Have more restaurants consult a Dietitian to help create a menu with healthy options.

Only 5% of Medical schools require their students to take a nutrition class and even then, its usually just a basic class. This is a problem because most people consult their doctors for nutrition advice when they aren't very qualified. I think all medical schools should require nutrition classes.

I need more ideas please. Thanks!
