Both of my boys have asthma (hereditary.... from my side of the family, and even my husband has it). Recently though, my sister in law said her son has it, and my son is showing the same symptoms (he is thin-but appetite ok, has cough with phlegm and colds- and sometimes the flu, and his lymph nodes can be felt bulging or should I say swelling behind the lower part of the ears). We will take him for a chest xray soon, but he has fever right now. is it ok to have your xray taken if you have fever? thanks for any help!

I have a pretty severe case in both feet. The pain goes all the way up to my mid thighs on bad days. What are my options? (I have not yet seen a podiatrist) Is there surgery that can correct it? THANK YOU for any advice!

My husband just got over a bad case of an intestinal 'bug'. He caught it from me. He's a large man and he threw up 3 or 4 times--violently. He's so sore all over now. He has an abdominal aneurysm--size now is 4.8.
Can this ever cause a problem with this condition when one 'throws up' so hard? No symptoms now of course, but you can't help but be concerned. thanks

I had some removed by a doctor but health insurance does not cover that procedure. It is very costly.

Over the last year I have noticed a pain in my back/side on both sides. It tends to be painful for a few weeks and then go away for a while. It isn't agonising, just a ache and it doesnt hurt when I wee or anything. What could it be and would there be any other symptoms?

I had an episode a few years ago where I had a blood clot burst in my eye. I lost some vision for about eight hours that day. During the many follow ups they decided to call what I had Viral Antiphospholipid Syndrome. Now fast forward to two days ago - I had sharp shooting pains in the back of my leg and when I woke up I had tingling and a bone deep cold. I went to urgent care and he said it might be deep vein thrombosis. I went up for an ultrasound - but they didn't except my insurance so urgent care discharged me and sent me to an ultrasound tech that would except my insurance. By the time I got there it had been over twelve hours since my symptoms started and they had began diminishing. The ultasound tech found nothing wrong. Is it possible that I had a clot in my leg and they were too late to find any evidence of it? The doc- by the way - never took any blood to test for clotting agents and now I have to wait until Tuesday for any further anything. Is that neglegent?

HIV can be stopped over a very short period by simply stopping promiscuity. Finding a cure would increasepromiscuity like the pill did.
