WITHOUT a prescription for anything or seeing a doctor? Are there any over-the-counter treatments? Can I burn them off myself somehow? Can I just pick them off with a pin or something? I'm serious.

For a while now, I've been getting extreme stomach pains along with feeling numb in my hands and feet, feeling faint and actually fainting, being extremely tired, and drinking all the time. My mom was conserned about diabetes, because it runs in our family. She used a self-check glucose machine right after I woke up, and the blood sugar was 197. When I went to the doctor, he told me that was a normal reading, and the different symptoms are just a coincidense. He diagnosed me with irritable bowel syndrome, and sent me on my way. I researched IBS when I got home, and I have none of those symptoms. Are the symptoms and the 197 glucose level something to be conserned about? Or am I overreacting, and my doctors probably right?

By the way,
I am a 15 year old girl; 5'6ish and I weigh 135-140.

It's been years since I've gotten the test. Turns out I gotta get tested to for a job permit form. I'm really really really scared of needles.. How much does it hurt? I'm freaking out right now.

Yesterday I found out my aunt has stage 4 liver cancer that has spread. theyve given her 6 mos. My cousin has told me to call her today, and I dont know how. I dont know what to say. I know to say nice positive things but how do I not say anything about death? I know she will. She's my favorite aunt and we're very close. I just don't know how to have this conversation with her. I will try to not cry, but what if she does? I'm still trying to understand whats happening here. I dont know how to comfort myself. How do I comfort her? I live in NY & shes in CA, so its not like I can just go visit. Phone calls are all we have left & I just dont know how to make the first call. What if my uncle gets on the phone? I guess he's falling apart and has said he's going to kill himself when she goes. How do I comfort him??? Please help!!

I am not high, and I get at least 8 hours of sleep every night. My eyes just hardly ever seem to be fully white. Do I not drink enough water? Could it be allergies?

I am 23, been 6 mnths since married. We dont wnt a baby before 2 years. I was diagonsed with PCOD last yr in August in my home country Pakistan. Before that I had been takin Diane 35 to improve my hormone levels (as well as a contraceptive) but it only helped in making periods regular, it didnt decrease my hair on body. My doc in Dubai(UAE, where I live) has prescribed me Glucophage which I am about to start in a few days. Will I be able to get pregnant after 2 yrs? I am worried sick becus of this. I have hidden this frm my husband bcus I am sure then he wud want me to get preg immediatetly, naturally because he would think I would anyway take time in conceiving, better start now! What do I do. I feel so depressed and weak. I love eating and weight 68 Kgs, height 5'5. I am young, I am not ready for a baby but at the same time, I worried if I delay having a baby, I might suffer like other people tryin since 4-5 years. Currently Im taking Yasmin( contraceptive pill) is it ok4me? HELP

My husband has, what he calls, a "smell" in his nose. He said it's like dried blood. Been there for over 5 years now. Has had all tests from MRI, CAT, to colonoscopy. Sinus Doc can't find a problem either. Is there anyone who has this problem. We have run out of avenues. Only serious answers, please.

I never got the bulls eye rash which is why I was so stunned to find out that I had this disease. The doctor told me some people do not get the rash. I went to the doctor because I thought my thyroid disease had returned and that is when she had me go for a blood test for the Lymes disease and actually did a full blood workup to make sure everything else in my body was okay, which it turned out was all fine, thank goodness. Thanks for all your replies and help with this. I am really worried about having this, and I am supposed to go to Florida next week for a few days to visit my elderly parents. I hope I am somewhat feeling better so I can still go.

Symptoms include mostly extreme chest pain especially when taking a breath, also pain in abdomen and lower back, overall achy muscles and fatigue with loss of appetite. Occassional nausea, and headache. Disoriented and dizzy feeling. Very gassy. All tests have come back normal, inc CT scan, EKG, blood and urine tests also normal. One doc says maybe strep or mono, but there is no sore throat and no other cold-like symptoms. Web md and other sites offer different ideas for some symptoms, but so far nothing can explain, not even any of the docs, why the severe chest pain..... anyone with info is much appreciated. One more thing fever of about 101.7 occurs consistently for about 5 days.
