Here's what happened to me: I got a rash on my forearms, which then spread to my legs, stomach, neck, and back. A couple of days later, my right arm swelled and was numb with pain, then a while after my ankles/legs became somewhat numb with my hamstrings and calves tightening up and I got shortness of breath and a tightened chest. I was originally given Biaxin, but I had an allergic reaction to that, so my Doc gave me Levaquin. I've been on Levaquin for 2 days, and it doesn't seem to be improving my health. I looked at my tonsils and I see a couple of white dots on them, plus the tonsils are not round shaped but they have craters in them. Plus now I'm having headaches, my chest is tight, and my glands are swollen somewhat. My throat is not sore, but it's starting to tighten up.I don't think I got all of this from a spider bite. I'm thinking I may have strep or something similar.....please help! I've slept 9 hours in the last 3 1/2 days because of the numbness and pain.

What are some of the recommended treatments when this congenital heart disease is discovered in someones 50's, for instance? Repair of the hole, only medicines, or what? Mine is very small hole, and they just said take low dose aspirin. But this condition puts me at risk of scary things such as stroke and congestive heart failure. What are other people doing about this, when discovered in adulthood?

I think I got a spider bite on my right tricep, but I'm not 100% certain. I got rashes on the inside of my forearms, then the rashes spread to my legs, neck, and I itch all over (although it's a dull itch). The first doctor gave me 360 mg/day allegra and a shot of cortisone to stop the spread, but it didn't do much. I'm still having shortness of breath as well. I then got numbness in my right arm and my legs, my calves and hamstrings tightened up. I went to the ER last Saturday morning. The doc gave me Biaxin, which I had an allergic reaction to (i.e. it felt like my body was lit on fire). My doctor then changed the prescription to Levaquin. At first, the of the symptoms were decreasing, but now the rashes are still going (even though I've taken Benadryl the last 2 days), the numbness is off and on in my arm and legs, and I'm still having shortness of breath and a tight chest. I am coughing up pleghm too. My tonsils look weird. Is this a bite or some sort of other infection?

since i was little, i have always had these skin discolorations or "dis" pigmentations. it looks like someone took liquid foundation that is ten shades too light and just splattered it across my face. it only does this on my face and during the summer too. it has never really freaked me out because the doctor says it was nothing to worry about. people tell me to put sunscreen with moisturizer when going on but nothing seems to be working. if you know what this condition is or how to help/prevent it, i will be seriously thankful and HAPPY!!!(to have clear, beautiful skin .haha) :)

I've had sex with two men my whole life.
The guy I lost my virginity to and my fiance.

I recently found out I have HPV.
I know that the symptoms can take weeks to even years to show up so I don't know which of them gave it to me.

Is there a way for my fiance to get tested to find out if he gave it to me or if the other guy gave it to me.
My fiance is out of town, I haven't told him.
How should I tell him I have it??

----serious answer please----

I am young and have never been sexually active, but old enough to make the choice if I wanted too.I get cold sores on my lips some times,and I never thought anything of them,my mom had them before I was ever born according to her.
I was pretty used to them and have been free of them for almost a year.Then a few days ago I thought I had a yeast infection wich was odd seeing as how i am perfectly healthy ,and have only had one a long time ago when I was a child.I bought monistat and put that on,But it dosnt seem to be helping very much,I just want to know exact symptoms of herpes type 2 to see if thats whats going on.Im a christian girl and I really honor my body as a temple,I don't know what to do if I have these? what did I do wrong?Is this my fault?
please help me Im really freaking out.
I'm scard to death of having anyone other than my husband see my areas,including the doctor/obgyn.How do I get over this emense fear?
