I am taking Cipro for a urinary tract infection. I have ceased my herbal treatment for Candida. Does Cipro kill Candida, too? How soon after I finish the Cipro will the Candida start to flourish again? In other words, can I start my anti-Candida regimen immediately after ceasing the Cipro?

We are married for 4 yrs now. My wife was skinny when we were married but now she has put on a healthy weight. But her boobs have gone really big and she is a bit ashamed of it size (From 28 to 38 size). Myself being a boobs man fondles with them a lot and she thinks I am the reason for this. We dont have a child as yet but she did lactate for a few days after taking some medicines.

Need honest opinion about this. Could it be that her breast is growing for any medical condition?

I'm going to college, and had planned on commuting since dorms were not available. Something happened, and now all of a sudden I can get one when I wasn't planning on it. Long story short, I need to get a meningitis shot in the next week. Where can I find one? I called the local walk-in clinic, they don't have it, neither does my doctor.

I went for an MRI, was called back for additional views, (the tech said this new Dr. always sends my patients back), & then immediately after 2nd mamo, I had Sonogram. While laying there, I asked the tech what does cancer look like on the screen, she said that cancer sometimes takes on different shapes & maybe a rugged edge. So I see a perfect circle on the screen, white outline black in center, & I ask what is that? She said it looks like a fluid sac that you know swells up when you get your period & goes down afterwards. OK I get the results in the mail; abnormal needs further testing. I call my Dr. & have to go to a surgeon now. I explained to everyone that I don't have breast cancer in the family only heart disease. I find out this cyst is 3-4 cm & has some shadowing & lesions & it's at 9:00; this was from the sono.; the Mamo detected nothing. I don't even feel this cyst, so I guess your would it's soft. After the 1st mamo I got the period the next day. The 2nd mamo was 2wks later.

My boyfriend and I were both exposed to poison ivy. He gets it very easily. I have never had it before. I know he was affected. He has a huge patch of it under his arm and some on his leg.

I figured I wouldn't get it - I never have before. However there were pricker bushes in the same area and I have a scratch on my arm that seems to be more than a scratch.

It is a small line a little more than an inch but it has raised bumps that itch along it.

Could this be a small area of poison ivy? I am wondering if my skin usually protects me from poison ivy but when it got in my scratch it was easier to infect.

It is not red, and doesn't burn or itch like my boyfriend's poison ivy, but it does it, and it is raised.

How long does untreated poison ivy take to heal?

Do the poison ivy medications (calimine, benadryl, etc.) speed the healing process or do they only stop the itching?

Is there a product that does speed the healing process?

I have a few areas of my body where oil seems to congregrate. what's the best product out there that will target that oil and dry it up? (don't you wish you could do that to the oil execs! Make them sweat a little, after making billions of dollars in profit from the incredibly high gas prices we are paying right now.)
