Health - 11 November 2007

Seems like the entire right side of my left big toenail (hope that's not confusing) doesn't want to grow forward anymore, but DOWNWARD

Name for that is...?

Ugh, guess it's time to see a podiatrist (for the first time ever)

ok
In my Family we have this skin type of birthmark. My sister has it and its makeing her really depresed. She has some on her for head, and alot on her legs, all it looks like is white skin that will not tan in the sun no matter what. My parents have been resurching it, and all they say is to use make up on the places she has birth marks on. They tried that and it didnt really work or look good. I need help, she wants to wear shorts and feel normal out in public. When we go to the swimming pool she will always feel like someone is judging her. I hate it. If you know anything about this skin problem that is called pibaldism please let me know, if you any skin doctors please tell me PLEASE!!!! She needs to have normal skin soon. Thanks.

Even if it's something I like to do, I just can't make myself get on it. I don't like to shower--don't want to get wet. I've got tons of TG flower arrangments to make for friends & family, and I love to do that, but I can't get started. I'm sleepy. I think I'll take a nap and get started later. Maybe. Maybe I just need more light.

I know the dictionary definition for frail. But I think the doctor means something more.
My mom is 80 and had open heart sugery this summer. Though she is recovering slowly, the doctor and nurses said she is very frail.
What does the medical staff mean when they add "she's very frail" to the rest of the prognosis?

Well, I guess I have a sore throat or something because I have a gagging feeling in my throat.

Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Two people in my family had sore throats, but I'm not sure what they felt like.

Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide. :)

I've noticed that my mom has been rubbing the top of her breast lately. When I saw her rub it she gave a strange look. She hasn't said anything about it. I know that if you have a lump on your breast you should see a doctor to see if it could be cancer. I don't know if my mom is feeling a lump or not, but she hasn't seen a doctor. I want to talk to her and find out what it is, and if it is a lump, convince her to go see the doctor, but I don't know what to say. And it would be awkward. But I know I should say something. How should I bring it up? What should I say?

I was thinking I might be anemic again, so I bought a high potency b-vitamin/iron liquid supplement. I found that 20 minutes or so after I take it, I am sleepy. I took it for 3 days and it does the same thing everytime. I thought if anything vitamins make you alert and ready for the day. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.

Okay, I'm kinda worried about my wee brother, who's 13. He's gone through a lot in the last year or so, I suspect he's been bullied at school although he hasn't said anything and i don't want to press him about it. He's gone through a rebellious stage which is totally normal for a teenager, and that kinda relaxed me a bit. However, the last time I went back and saw him (I'm at uni at the other end of the country) he'd started to be really withdrawn and has also started to stammer. If you try and talk to him he pretends everything is "fine" and becomes all happy smiley. I know teenagers go through wierd phases but it's so out of character it's worrying me. He had to go to anger management classes when he was 11 'cause he gets really out of control, and seems to get really down sometimes, and I mean down. I don't know what to do as I'm so far away and I just wondered if anyone has had a similar experience??

well my problem is wierd! i happen to stammer at times! because of that i have generally avoided people.. like i do not have more than 1 or 2 good friends and that bothers me a lot.. nowadays since the recent past i have been making plenty of friends but i also have noticed that people who generally love me online do not stick with me for long in person! that frustrates me! like i am now 19 and i definitely do not want to you know be reserved and stuff.. i want to be really open and friendly and you know a popular guy but this stammer seems to affect me! i hope there is someone out there who really undertstands my problem and will help me out!!
and yeah recently i started speaking slowly ..it did reduce the amount of stammering but that soon affected me like i felt unnatural.. but if i go fast i have a higher frequency of stuttering!! i am actually a bright student and infact very good at studies! i want to have a great career and do not want anything standing in my way!!
