I have been getting this rash for the past 4 months.. they are not puss-filled so I don't think it's a staph infection. They appear on my back, arms, legs, chest, and are really itchy though! Help.. has anyone had this? My dermatologist couldn't diagnose this.

I keep reading all these questions about HPV and all the answers are talking about HPV type one or oral hpv. Its not HPV type one, people, it's herpes simplex 1 that causes cold sores. HPV causes either genital warts or cervical cancer depending on the type of virus.

My boyfriend recently was diagnosed with diabetes. He is thinking about getting a medical alert bracelet or neckchain. What are we supposed to have put on it? His name? Obviously his condition.... a doctor's name? (What if he changes doctors somewhere down the road, this necklace costs like $60...) Does he put a contact name and phone number? Or does it just say "diabetic?" Please let us know what's supposed to go on it, in an emergency, we're not sure how much information will be needed. Emts, doctors or nurses especially. Thanks a lot.

I have been diagnose that i may have an advanced stage of cancer. I have been carefully explain that no treatment to cure my disease. At best I may only have a year or less.

They encourage me to fight my disease, while no assurance that I can be cured but at least i will have a bit longer life. I feel that prolong my life for just few months longer is not enough coz I'm still very young.

Help me, how can i accept that i have no cure but only a prolong life at best?

She is just 25 and has had cervical. A few weeks ago she broke her hip and they did a bunch of tests only to find out it has spread to her bones and her liver and a little spot in her lung. I just dont know what to say to her. She is going to be the third one in 8 years in our family to have cancer. I was the first. My uncle just passed away a year ago from brain cancer. I just dont know what to do any more. Thank you reading and any advice you can give.

There is so much in the media about Cancer and Aids, what more should be done to spread the word and get more research to help the quality of life for MS sufferers?
