Is there a medical or psychological conditon that causes people to hate fruit?

I know two people (not related or acquainted with each other) who don't eat fruit. They can't stand the smell or even the sight of fruit. They won't allow it in their houses. One of them makes an exception for lemons. They say it's not a phobia; they just find fruit revolting. I know lots of picky eaters who don't like onions or mushrooms or whatever but these are the only people I've met who reject an entire major food group. Any idea what's going on there?

who believes in miracles?

Hey everyone hi, im from scotland the north east, and i am wondering does anyone believe in miracles anymore?
As i was born with a hole in my heart and because it wasnt seen untill i was 21 years old,when i first collapsed. This left me with a rare and dangerous condition called Eisenmenger Syndrome/ pulmonary hypertension,easier to figure it its a high blood pressure in my lungs which aged me to having the lungs of a 75 year old lady. I was told id die due to this illness if i didnt get a heart and lung transplant. But for the first time this year they found a new drug called revatio which they were going to try me as it was a heart condition i had also,it wouldnt cure me id still die,but have better quality of live-on doing all the tests they told me the lung disease has gone.if thats not a miracle what is?more to this story ask if need information.lv juie from scotland

How long is mononucleosis contagious?????

I understand that once you are infected with mononucleosis, the virus stays with you for life. Does that mean I can infect anyone that I kiss or shares utensils or drink out of same cup???? I got mono about 6 years ago and after suffering through several months, have not had any outbreaks. I used to have these pimple like stuff show up on my forehead where I was kissed by someone infected but it stopped showing up several years ago.

And will I be able to donate blood even though I have mono?

Boyfriend Has Bump on Penis?

Hey everyone. I am writing to ask what does it mean when a guy has a hard bump on his penis. I was checking out my dude's privates and saw a hard bump that looks like it has a scab on it. He has had this bump for over a year and says that it is a "mole." I am scared that if we have sex I will contract an STD. What the heck it this. It does not look like a mole to me...it looks more like a wart or something, but it is hard and has a scab on it. Could it be HIV or herpes. he has had it in the same spot for a long time and never has had another one.

Chest discomfrot?

I am a 29-year male and I experience chest discomfort and pain in my left arm and in back of my shoulder. However this has been happening about every day for the last year. I have had about three EKG's and a stress test about 6 months ago. Living with these symptoms are making my life miserable. I don't know if I am a heart attack waiting to happen or what. I am so tired of going to the doctor because they say nothing is wrong with me. They tell me just to lose the weight and lower my cholosterol. Why do I continue to have all these symptoms on a daily basis. It is really driving my life crazy. Someone please help!
