My sisters fiance has high liver enzymes. Apparently he has bacteria in his stomach causing some condition but the doctor said that is not the cause of his high liver enzymes. He does not drink much, quit smoking and is not overweight at all. What could it be????

OK, I have been doing 30 minutes a day(2 miles) everyday on treadmill with it on an incline. Ever since I inclined it i noticed my butt and thighs were always bloated. So I have not used it on incline for a few days and bloat is gone. Butt and thighs are very tight. Why does having treadmill on incline cause bloat? I thought being on incline would make them tighter?

My father is a long time crack cocaine user and has been sick with 2 heart attacks within the last 3 months. I am his power of attorney and am having problems dealing with a situation.

He is in a retirement home and has been free from drugs the past 3 months. He recently obtained a bank card to our joint account and withdrew funds for drug use (Saturday). Since then I have been unable to contact him as he has been in and out of the retirement home and they cannot track him there. I need to have an evaluation done at the local hospital concerning his mental health. His family doctor secretary recommended I bring him to the hospital for the evaluation, though I cannot locate my father. He has been calling me saying he is not taking his meds and is going to get sick. How can I get him to the hospital, can the police help me? I don’t know what to do or what step to take.

ok so on sunday night i realized my upper left eyelid was a little itchy and was slightly (not even noticably) red. i put a hot washcloth over it for about 5-10 minutes and went to sleep. when i woke up the next morning, it seemed a little more noticable, and it seemed my left eyelid was swollen/pink in the corner & it appears that one eye is smaller than the other because of the swelling. after researching, i figured out it might be a stye, so i used some a home remedys to try & cure it. (i used a hot tea bag for 10 minutes then a freezing tea bag for 10 minutes).. i woke up today and it looked exactly the same..

the actual eye itself looks perfectly fine & white, it's just the eyelid that's irritated.. maybe it's an ingrown eyelash? i really can't figure this outt, i'm not doctor at all ;] helpp ?

My period ended Friday (after lasting 6 days). All of a sudden I got another period last night (monday). What is going on with me? I have been on the same birthcontrol for over a year with periods always on time, and NEVER have had 2 periods in a row. I always had trouble with them being spaced too far apart before I got on BC. Can anyone give me advice? I am so upset because I leave for vacation tomorrow and will be wearing a swimsuit all the time. This is just so upsetting :(

I just got my card for the Family Planning Waiver Program.
Does anyone know what this means? I feel stupid because I went to Family Planning and did NOT go through my insurance because I know Birth Control is cheaper through "no insurance" there. They told me I quilified for it. I wasn't really told what it intells other then i get free stuff.
I live in Wisconsin.
Can anyone give me info on this?
Does this affect my credit? Or anything "bad" since I'm getting this benifit?
Sorry I know nothing about this and any help you can give me would be great.
Also, my name is wrong on the Forward card, should I call them and get a new one?
Thanks

I have a 3 year old grandson. Who diagnosed with allergies and asthma when he was 1 yr. old. It is very hard to decide if he has a bad cold or his allergies. But there is a lot of heavy yellow mucus and some bleeding from nose. Hard to breath. When he has a bad spell there can be upset stomach and vomiting. When there is vomiting there is a lot of heavy flem from the stomach. So I had a son that had this problem when he was young then he grew out of it at 2. So what do you think. My grandson has been on zytec also.

3 years ago I became nauseas and had upper abdominal pain. Doctors thought it was my gallbladder and removed it, which made things worse. I've been through every test for common causes of nausea. My GI doctor has given up, and my Neurologist, endocrinologist, and ENT have been no help. I also have acid reflux, addrenal insufficiency, and asthma. I'm wondering what strange causes of nausea exist, what doctors could be missing. I lost my job a year ago, and now i'm pretty much stuck at home nearly all the time. I do have periods where nausea is a little better or worse but it never goes away. Please help I'm desperate to get a life again... I'm 26 years old.
