you have HPV? It's not as simple as just telling them as soon as you meet them because that will turn them away from even getting to know you. How do I tell her now that we are moving into a relationship?

Probably once every week or so I get really really anxious, and it takes hours to wear off. I'm not anxious about a particular thing, and I'm not always stressed about anything. I just get really really anxious and panicky. My hands start shaking, and I'm irritated and on edge. Is it normal to have this only once in a while?

I started to have very small red dots and now they developed into bigger red spots that are very itchy. They are on my legs, my butt, my back, my feet. I was thinking it might be hives but after looking it up, I dont think that is what it is. My two brothers and mom had it first and they went and seeked medical treatment but I have no way of getting ahold of them to find out what it was. I know my brother was given prednazone (sp?) does anyone know what this might be or why they gave him that medication? tia

When I say I got sick, the symptoms were similar to a cold. Ex: fever, sore throat... I'm feeling a lot better, still sound stuffy, but now I'm just unbelievably tired all the time. It seems to come and go. I'm not sure if I'm just recovering, or if I need to see a doctor and find out if its mono.

Okay. At first it just looks like acid-reflux, but its more like compulsive vomiting throughout the day. He can control the compulsion to some degree, and manages to not loose all of his nutrition. However, the stomach Acid is damaging his esophegus (sp?). He has been tested for Celiac Spru, Stomach Paralysis, and he's not allergic to meat or dairy. He doesn't smoke, drink coffee or eat acidic foods. It can happen 5-10 times a day before or after meals and also between meals altogether. If you have anything like these symptoms or have a guess as to what is the culprit, please drop me an email. Also, one more strange thing is that all throughout his childhood he would compulsively eat plain table salt. I have heard that this was indicitive of a metabolic disorder, but I can't find out anything more about it.

No, he has not had a colonoscopy. He has had an endoscopy and some sort of digestion test, where he drank radioactive stuff and then they watched him digest it. Both showed nothing.
Its hard to answer the question about his current symptoms because he tries very hard to prevent himself from actually throwing up . With a lot of concentration and relaxation, he is able to not loose his food-so its kind of like heaving but he is usually successful at keeping the food inside and not out. When it does occasionally come out its kind of whiteish. it doesn't seem to be associated with any specific time of day (although without fail first thing in the morning he has it). like i said before, it can be bore meals, right after a meal, when he's really hungry, when he's not, etc. However, it doesn't seem to affect his appetite at all. He eats many times a day, though on days where is stomach is worse, his portions are smaller. He hasn't had any head trauma, headaches, or really any other problems.

He takes asprin very rarely, and we drink alcohol (within moderation) a few times a week. However, in Nov. he got mono and didn't have a drop of alcohol for 3 months-symptoms of stomach problem did not change. He hasn't had any of these probelms:kidney-liver-disease ?
gall stones ?
headache ?
head trauma?
diabetes?
abdominal surgery ?
no results from any blood tests done so far. no pain, fever, diarrhea, constipation. he doesn't feel thirst, fait, or have dry mouth. But one of his biggest ways of easing his stomach just a bit is to drink ice water. so he drinks probobly 2ce the amount of water that most people due.
oh-and its been a problem for the majority of his life - he's 23. And his Dad has always had a wierd stomach problem. Whenever his dad wouldn't get enough sleep at night - we would vomit and feel tsick the next day. ---just a side note.

My shoes and socks stopped fitting. I haved tried elevating my legs. I am not standing much. I am going to the doctor tomorrow. It is very painful. What are some causes of this? I have had this before and tried diuretics, but they do not work this time and this is the worst I have ever had it. My feet even look funny and cannot move correctly. I had to buy thongs because I was wearing slippers. Any ideas?

I heard this term today and it sounds so awful right out calling someone a liar. Is there not an alternate name for it that sounds like a real diagnosed condition?
