I have arthritis in my right arm and shoulder. It is so painful and I know I should go to the doctor but the arm looks as though it is twisting and the muscles go into spasm which would indicate that it is. I thought arthritis it just made the joint inflammed.The doctors have told me that I do not have rheumatoid arthritis.

I have been taking Antihistamine for my allergy for about 2 years. Are there any negative sides of it incase taking it for looong periods (what are the substances, which this medicine contains)?
I’m only 24 years old. That drug makes me feel sleepy and lazy the whole day, and it really sucks
I have been to 4 doctors for treatment. They could not do anything about it…I made many blood tests, stop eating certain kind of food as doc recommended me, I took herbs, injections. Nothing was useful to me at all…so I go on taking those pills to stop the allergy.
It hurts too much when it comes.
It feels itchy, burning (high temperature of the skin, which is hit by it)!!
I want to say that I have (High amount) of (White blood cells in my blood) which was recognized by a doc when I was small kid. Cuz my Lymphatic glands behind my ears would swell when I had flu.
Also I jus know recently that I have floaters (many of them) I see them almost everyday.
I have low blood pressure. I have been through depression more than 5 years.

I just started a home yoga program (consisting of me reading a book while awkwardly contorted in various positions) and I was really hoping it would correct my scoliosis, maybe not completely but at least a few degrees. Anything would be an improvement so I'm just hoping for the best. ^_^

Everyone has to be secretive about this curse and one never really knows whether this is a rampant epidemic or a rare secret curse. Answer yes or no: Do you have genital herpes? It's so simple!

I got my first boil last November. Since them I've gotten about five more. One again in November and then four others came along when the summer started up.

I currently have four still on me now. I don't like using anti-biotics because I don't feel they do anything, nor do I feel that they're good for my body.

My question is, should I be worried about getting these boils? Is it a huge deal, or is it JUST a boil? Why do I keep getting them? Am I not eating good, because I do exercise everyday and I am pretty fit. Are boils caused from mal-nutrition? Should I just let them heal on their own? I mean, would it hurt if I just left them? Because I don't like dealing with them, they are bothersome. I'm getting most of them around where my pants sit on my waist, could it have something to do with my pants?

Sorry, just getting a little worried, I guess!! (Oh yeah, I'm not going to the docs., so please don't suggest that! All I need is answers! Thanks!)

I have been getting a skin rash on my legs between my knee and my upper thigh on the front and back of my leg. They start out as small bumps and develop into itchy welts. I notice that I get the rash after I shave and when I am out in the heat. Do you think there is anything medically wrong? Can I just buy something over the counter? Should I go to the doctor?

I believe I Have cancer... I will be going to a specialist soon to have this determined (by biopsy) but, i was wondering...
I was having blood drawn every other week for about 3 months, because I insisted something was very wrong with me... Each time, my bloodwork came back absolutely fine.
Can I still have cancer??
