My relative was diagonised with colon and liver cancer. He's on chemotherapy right now, but refuses to eat anything other than oatmeal in the morning and ramen noodles with a mushroom broth at night. I'm sure this isn't healthy... do you guys agree?

I have this weird allergy to dairy products, its not lactose intolerance, but maybe some form of it. If I drink milk, or consume any dairy products, then the slightest scratch will turn into a huge welt. I am very curious to know if anyone knows what it is, or if they have it. I have alwayz felt I am the only person in the WORLD with it, it would really give me peace of mind to know that I'm not. Thanks. Ray.

What are these, they are bumps, like acne, they pop up on lower abdomen and lower back and they don't go away. They look just like pimples but no head on them and they never pop.
