My 9 yr old step-daughter gets nose bleeds a couple of times a month, started with a couple of times a year, and it seems to becoming more frequent. It will start bleeding at different times of the day, sometimes a blood clot glob will come out. This glob, too is more frequent. It will start bleeding for no reason(that we know of), she will wake up with a bloody nose sometimes.
Her doctor shrugs it off as just an allergy and prescibed flonas-nose spray which made it worse. When it bleeds, it bleeds a lot-heavily until I have her sitting a bit forward, pinching her nose, then it stops. She says she feels fine when it does bleed, appears to be fine. But its frequency is concerning her dad. He feels something is seriously wrong and wants to take her to a specialist.
Why does this happen, how do we stop it, and who do we see about this?

I was given antihistimine and prednisone but only made it worst, much much more rashes bigger and more raised then before. trouble breathing and swallowing etc.

docs kept saying its allergy rashes but ive tried a week worth of diet that only contain veges (no other ingred added) and i still have the rash, ive tried another week with just bread and water and still have the rash.

it starts from the neck and downwards through my arms and down to my tummy and yea pretty much within half hour to hour im back to covering in rashes but its much more in the neck chest and arm area.

its usually come and go but after taking the antihistimine and prednisone, the rashes havent gone. just stayed and turned my body into a landmark of lil small red raised village.

based on internet searching i'm pretty sure i have tonsilitis... here's the shortish story,

sick for a week (just a cold mostly) turned into fever and sore throat so i went to a walk in, tested neg for strep but the md gave me antibiotics (4 days ago) and this is not helping the sore throat AT ALL. however, most of the cold symptoms have gone away..

so i'm stuck with a sore throat (and ears...) for god knows how long and don't have any more sick time so after today, i have a week of misery to look forward to.

actual question:
any good remedies that don't involve staying home and sleeping? maybe something that will help me be a productive member of society while still healing?

i am a smoker but have had approx 2 cigs a day for the past few days, just enough not to also have to withdrawl from nicotene on top of everything else!

things i have been doing:
taking "rx dose" of advil every 3 hours
drinking decaf green tea with honey
sipping chicken broth
throat losenges

The purpose of this query is to find out how my wife has been
diagnosed with focal segmented kidney disease. I have seen
materials at the Merck website that suggests that the newer
methods of biopsy analysis can show that if mold spores are involved in kidney pathology.

Person who have diabetes that suffer from Renal failure does that mean they let their diabetes get out of control. What about a person who keeps their numbers between 100 and 130 all the time will those numbers promote Renal failure, blindness or foot problems?

I am sitting up late again, sitting here in tears. The Vikadin is not working. My ears are ringing, my face and ears hurt. The sinus pressure is so high that I can’t keep my eyes focused.

They did a CT scan Thursday. I have been waiting on someone to look at it and tell me what is plugging up my head. I am in so much pain I can’t sleep, or concentrate. The doctor says that the pain is causing my normally low blood pressure to skyrocket. He keeps asking me what color is the discharge from my noise. What discharge? It is not coming out! What am I going to do? Sorry I am rambling because I can’t do anything else. It hurts so bad.

My girlfriend says I have been howling in my sleep. Well, because I am dreaming about the pain.

I guess Captain Morgan can help a while. Monday please hurry and get here. I need something done about this pain.

My throat has been sore for 8 days and it is swollen. It looks to me like it's staying about the same. I went to the doctor and they took a strep and a mono test and both came back negative. I have had mono in the past, about 4 years ago. I don't have any other real symptoms that I can see anyway, I had problems sleeping for a little bit, and in the beginning of the week I had alot of phlegm and it was yellow. Now just an occasional cough, just about normal energy level, no other real symptoms though. I'm just getting worried since it's lasting longer than 4 days as normal. No allergies that I know of either.

The doctor gave me a prescription to Prilosec because she thought it might be acid reflux, but I don't have heart burn, so I'm not really sure about that.

Anyone have any help for me?

Hexakosioihexekontahexa phobia is the fear of the number 666 . I don't have it personally but I know a few that do. So I was just wondering how others cope with it.
