Hello

I recently went to a medical lab and they drew some blood from me for some tests. The thing that is worrying me is that I wasnt paying attention to the nurse when she got the needle so I dont know if she used a new or reused an old needle by mistake/

My question is, can these needles be reused or are they designed for one time use only?? I am afraid of contracting any blood disease from this incident

Serious answers ONLY, Real-Life cancer victims experiences preferred - At what point did you know something was wrong?

I know the symptoms etc., but Im curious as to what Cancer feels like in late stages from personal experience with it, like when it spreads throughout ones body, etc.

I know that when an individual's genitals are infected with crabs, the parasites feed on the skin. If a person's mouth is infected with the disease, do the same results occur? Can someone's mouth even get infected by the disease?

So for about two weeks I've had all these small red spots on my legs (none are above the knee). They don't itch, they're small, what else can I say about them? They are just small red dots all over my legs! I mean, I guess they could be pimples, but gross! Usually if you get pimples on your legs, they don't pop up all on the same exact day and they don't stick around for 2 weeks!! (Usually.) But they could be pimples I guess. There's a little white dot in the middle of a lot of the spots... eew, I know I'm grossing you out! Any ideas people?? Thanks.

My 15 y/o has suddenly developed 3 painful lumps on her neck. One behind each ear (size of a pea)and one larger one (size of a nickel) on the side of her neck closer to her shoulder.

They are hard and extremely painful. Only shown up in the past 24 hours. They are not bug bites, zits or boils.
They might be swollen lymph nodes but she hasn't been sick and they don't seem in the right place to be lymph glands.

Anyone have any experience with this and know what it is?

I have tried different sinus rinses, all sorts of drugs, herbal cleansing, rehabilitation, acupuncture.....and I am tired of it. Does anyone have anything else out of the ordinary that they have tried, and it has actually worked for them? I am so tired, I get sick and worn out at least 1-2 times a week. I drag myself thru the day alot. I am just tired of feeling like this all the time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Terazol 7 which is used intravaginal but I'm not sure if I can use it on her. Can anybody help?
