Since July 2000 I have had 8 stents implanted and 1 bypass surgery. On June 1 I had my first Heart Attack.

On the way to the Hospital I asked the EMT if he could give me something for the pain. He said, I had already been given 4 morphine shots. It was the most intense pain I have ever felt and the morphine did not even touch the pain.

They put 3 more stents in. I was told my EF is now 40-45%.

I am now being counselled for severe depression.

I know about all the risk factors and I have eliminated them.

I know I will not live forever but are there any other suggestions for help? And yes I know how fortunate I am just to be alive.

Thanks in advance.

My son has had 4 positive strep cultures in the past nine mths, recurring, nagging rashes around the eyes that won't go away and have been mis-diagnosed as exczema. He has also had flu like symptoms and has been tired & lethargic. I know a mono diagnosis has no prescribed medication, does this sound like mono to anyone, do you have any suggestions?

I recently dog-sat for the weekend and have been congested ever since. I don't think I am allergic per se, but i think I am sensitive to the amount of hair that was in the air, on the bed/couch, etc.
What can I do to make it easier next time? I am scheduled to dog sit for a week in August too...

I have had a problem with a sore and irritated throat for some time now, a constant tickling,and trying to clear my throat to no avail. I choke on soft foods, hsrd , and liquids when in a certain position, like it continuously goes down the wrong pipe, and will cough for quite some time. My voice is becoming hoarse, some difficulty swallowing , and continually cough when sleeping, or under sedation. The coughing will actually keep me up all night. I feel like a cat with a fur ball in my throat. Have not yet been to ENT specialist, plan on going but assume they will say nothing is wrong. I am a mouth breather, still have my tonsils, and I have to sleep with breathe right strips. Yes I am a smoker,and know that I have to quit. Taking a shower, or in high humidity causes chest pain and difficulty breathing. Cold weather causes me to start a raspy cough when I breathe in cold air, please any advice , opinions on this matter would help me see a doctor,or whether it is necessary. Thank you

My friend had put her foot beneath the sand at the beach and believes this is when the strange rash appeared. She has it for three years. The doctors were not much help. Could it be something she contracted from the ocean beach. It has irregular edges and maybe slightly raised in appearence. It was itchy in the beginning, now it is not. Her age is mid fifties.

having dreams where I am being diagnosed with some illness or even cancer. Should I worry about this? I don't have any symptoms I feel perfectly health. It is too weird and many times I wake up crying. Should I take these dreams as a warning?
