ive had this lump under my skin on my right temple for a long time, id hate to guess how long and have it b wrong if that makes a difference in anyones answer, but ill just say like 4 months or so. sometimes its not so visible because it would b small enough that the skin wouldnt buldge out much, but its popped a few times now and some blood and pus comes out but it always heals up somewhat smaller but never acually goes away. it hurts too, but only when its irritated from popping. when its not irritated and i touch it its like i can feel it moving around under the skin like its just full of some fluid that just doesnt want to leave. im probably gonna go to a dermatologist at this point to figure it out once and for all i just hope its nothing serious, because i also have something like this going on between my eyebrows now that ive popped a few times now and its gotten much smaller, all i can describe it as is cystic acne, or a boil or a carbuncle, i just hope its nothing more serious

My aunt was a young, healthy adult admitted to the hospital for a routine procedure, six weeks later she had passed. there was a lot of descrepancy regarding her care and also the events leading to her death. in one example; she was infected with a rare disease which spread through her entire body. the origin of infection was found to be her spine, shortly following a spinal tap performed by the hospital against my family's instruction. no autopsy was performed, at the time my grandmother was upset and did not request one. her body was cremated and i was wondering if there was any possiblity of investigating this further, despite this obstacle.

Today I cried at the STUPIDEST things like
A. My bestfriend was teasing me in class
B. My teacher said I should add a bibliograpy to my paper
C. Another friend wouldn't give me food
D. I lost a dollar
E. I was caught sleeping in class

It's weird because I NEVER cry and now the slightest thing will set me off. also I always sleep in class so it doesn't bother me when the teacher yells. Even when my brother and I were arguing I started to cry and he's only 10!! And I'm 17!! What's wrong with me? Oh and please don't say im pregnant. I know I'm not.

About a year ago I got this unknown scar on my leg, I had no idea what it was from. Its about three inches long and bumpy, like a dotted line. It hadn't caused any problems until about a week ago when it started itching really bad and I realized I had more than just that one "scar." It is obviously not a scar but instead something that has spread to my knee and ankle. I itch it until it stops and when it heals again, the itching continues. Any suggestions?

I broke my left wrist at home and I've been off work ever since Oct. 17 and I've been taking Occupational Therapy since say Nov 11...twice a week...

My wrist is still too sensitive to use. If I forget and use it or say just can't use my right hand...I scream out in pain. When I drive...closing the door is painful...

Will it ever get better or will it always hurt?
I have to use my hands to earn a living...is it time to hunt a different job? Maybe something that doesn't require lifting?
I check groceries for a living and so many things are to heavy for my new problemed wrist...I can't even pick up a jar of spaghetti sauce...I've been experimenting!

So what do you think???

Can taking a lot of ecstasy in a short period of time effect you more than somebody who has taken more pills over a long period of time? I was stupid and did ecstasy approximately 15 times or so in 3 months, doing it nearly every weekend and did coke 3 or 4 times during that period of time as well. There was even an instance when I took ecstasy with methamphetamines in it and my lips turned blue, I was up until late the next morning, was seeing everything slanted, and getting hot flashes. I stopped doing it but I feel really affected by the drug. What confuses me, however, is why I feel more effected from doing the amount of ecstasy I did in such a short period of time than other people I know who have been doing it for years but doing it once every month or couple of months. Please help!

I've been sick for what seems about a month & a half. I've had some sinus pressure, hacking cough, sore throat, and the ocassional dizzy spell. The doctor prescribed me a z-pack. It took most of my symptoms away except for the cough. After a finishing the meds, all of the symptoms came back, and hit me hard once again. So I called in and had him call me in some more meds, this time cipro. I took that, and felt better for about 4 days, and now it's all back again. I don't have health insurance right now, so the less I have to go to the doctor the better. The way I'm feeling right now isn't a "I need to stay in bed all day" feeling. But I have this chronic sore throat, cough, sinus thing, and nothing over the counter helps. And being a singer, this is really frustrating. A side note, I had a bad reaction to mold at one point a few years ago, and I just found some mold living in a brita picture I'm using. I know it's gross, but could this have anything to do with it? Thanks!!

Just curious....when someone is receiving radiation therapy for several weeks...are there any significant side effects that are passed on to the people they are closest too on a daily basis? If you bathed a child or rocked a baby or small child to sleep....are there any ill effects passed from the cancer patient receiving the therapy to the small child?

I've been super concerned about my sudden 10lb weight gain for a while now. Now I'm stuffing my face at night with anything I can grab then I just throw it up after a soda. And I get nervous when people see me eat so I wait till later. Now I can't help but do it. When I don't I feel completly stressed and fat. Does anybody know what this is and should I go to the clinic or something? Has anybody been through that before? I don't know what's going on!
