I had a biopsy done and all they could tell me over the phone is that it is not mild. What is a mild result and what could I have if it is not mild? Could I have precancerous cells or could I have cancer? Does mild mean precancerous, because they told me its not mild. So apparantly its pretty bad. I don't know what to think. Thanks

I've asked her plenty of times to tell me what it feels like and what i should do with some of her sysptoms, but it's hard for me to understand cuz sometimes she can't tell me becuase she's in pain or very tired. Then she takes medicine and really falls asleep. I'm not used to being with anyone that has MS and I just wanted to see if anyone would give me some advice.

I've had a burning and itching on my skin above my genetalia for several months, no rash. Just burning and itching.

My doctor diagnosed it as Candidiasis (without scraping or doing any add'l lab work) and prescribed a couple of different creams and they seemed to help, but they didn't resolve the issue.

I recently started on a tablet form of Nirozal (I'm on my 8th day). One a day, 200mg per day and the issue doesn''t seem to be getting better. I also apply a medicated baby powder on the area 3 times a day to absorb some of the moisture.

Has anyone been in this same boat? I'm getting frustrated at the situation and don't know what else to do.

Hope you don't mind me asking this. . . If someone was diagnosed with AIDS/HIV 10 years after they came in contact with the virus, which would they have AIDS or HIV? and if they had HIV, would it be more advanced?
thanks

i started feeling dizzy a couple of years ago (almost constantly), i then had a migrane (my first) which caused vertigo. which after seeing the doctor, cleared up. i went back again and was given some medicine for the dizziness and was told i had high pressure in my right ear (even though i've only once had ear ache more than 10 years ago). the medicine worked for a while (even though i was only allowed to take it when it was at it's worst)

now nothing shifts it, i feel constantly unwell as if have cotton wool in my head (which i did explain to the doctor at the time). i get headaches more than i used to (i was lucky if i had one a month). It gets worse before, during and a few days after mensruating. it sometimes causes a strange sweating feeling where i'm not actually hot or sweating but it feels as if i am. i know i don't have high blood pressure

I don't think this is caused by my ear anymore, what is causing this? i want to feel human again.

In 2004 I had sinus surgery because of sinus infections. When I had a infection, my face would swell. Now 2 years later, my face still swells and it is not a infection. It happens atleast 4-5 times a week. I have been to a ENT, nothing wrong with sinuses. I have a HA almost every day. They range from 3-10. My right pulpil is now dilated. I have occ. blurred vission. I have ear pain on the affected side of swelling. Light headness on and off . left eye drooping. Right side mouth drooping. I have been having memory loss, especially short term. Eye MD found no problems. Neurology, something is wrong but they don't know what it is.
CAT scan with dye normal. MRI with dye normal. No one knows how to help me. I am tired of taking medications all the time. Does any one have any ideas?
