I am CONSTANTLY clearing my throat & it's very aggravating!! It's been pretty bad for about 3 years now. I've gone to see an ENT (Ear, Nose, & Throat) MD. They said it looked like allergic rhinitis but when they tested me to see what I was allergic to, everything turned out negative. Plus my nose stays stopped up all the time & I have to do most of my breathing through my mouth. I've tried claritin, allegra, tylenol sinus, all kinds of nasal sprays, and zyrtec (which is expensive, even with my insurance) and nothing really seems to help much. HELP!!

For instance what I mean. I use a condom for my current girlfriend. Is it safe that I do that? I broke up with my ex-girlfriend after some 2 years ago, we would have erotic intercourse (lemme tell you. Wasn't enjoyable, and it wasn't with a condom).

My father has type 2 diabetes. He's appointed to have all his remaining upper teeth removed to be replaces by a denture and also a few mandibular extractions which will only leave him with his canines to hold a partial. These appliances are in process. In the meantime my father had a 2nd opinion and was told that it was too aggresive of a treatment, to not have th extracted because of the risk factors. We know my father has periodontal disease with major bone loss, and that eventually he'll loose these teeth. My question is, what are the risk factors in oral surgery and prosthetic appliances in a type 2 diabetic as opposed to waiting for each tooth to hurt and get infected?

I went to the doctor today and she took some blood from my finger and told me I was on the border line and she told me I should start taking some multivitimins. Does it mean that my blood is low or am I on the border line for diabetes.

I recently contracted a small case of ringworm. From where? I have no clue. I took my cats to the vet and they have no signs of the infection at all..so maybe i got it from a freinds or something..there is no telling. Anyways, I have been to the dermatologist for it and he gave me a topical cream to use. My question is is you are being treated for it are you still contagious? If so how long before you are not contagious. This is the first time i have ever had anyting like this..it totally freaks me out!

For about a year now I have been having chest pains on the left side, a dull pain in my back on the left shoulder blade, a sharp pain in the back of my left arm. This pain comes on when I am just sitting or lying down. I have been to the emergency room twice had EKG and came back negative twice, I have had a stress test and it came out negative. I will be sitting down at my desk or driving in my car and all of a sudden I feel like an electric shock in my chest. I am sick of living with this condition, I have gone to a cardiologist and two different M.D.'s. No one can find anything. Someone suggested to me it may be angina. Wouldn't one of the three doctors been able to pick up on that or at least suggest testing for it. I am 29 years old and i was not born with a heart disorder, but could I have heart disease already. If so, would they not know to look for it. They just tell me that I am too young, so why do i live with this discomfort everyday.

a girl i dated performed oral sex on me about a month ago -- she claims to be STD free and was definitely NOT having a herpetic outbreak on her mouth when we had the encounter.

last week, i developed an itchy rash on my penis and scrotum and some small bumps in some of the red spots. However, i never have had any oral symptoms.

the penis itching is going away and there do not appear to be any sores or anything. and again, i have not yet had any oral symptoms but i did kiss her quite a bit.

is it possible i have herpes on my genitals? how likely?

Let me know your experience if you have had a mouldy house.... how did you feel? I don't want to taint your answers by letting you know how I am feeling.

ALSO: How did you fix the mold problem? Cleaning? Moving? Remove insulation? I need to do something about it!

My gay male friend recently asked me this. He said he swallowed his boyfriends semen because a doctor told him the stomach acids make it impossible to HIV to infect you this way?
That sounds like crap to me, but I really don't know...?!
