What would be considered normal/safe glucose reading if taken from 30 min to1 hr after eating. I believe this would be the time when glucose reading would be at highest.

Okay so I went to the doctor today thinking I had a herpe, but it turned out that it was just a whitehead. Thank God. He told me that it was ready to pop. And that I should clean the area very good with soap and a wash cloth. It bothers me because it's in my inner thigh. What should I do? Pop it? Leave it alone? Will it heal? How long will it take to heal? And does it close?

everything went numb, he could not use his hands and when he tried to stand up his legs were numb too. A few minutes later he was able to stand up and go back to his truck, but his hands and legs felt like they were tingling, like pins and needles the rest of the day, is this a nerve or muscular problem and is it serious?

I have heard that cystic-fibrosis (CF) can cause a male to become sterile, I have looked for it online, but have not found anything concrete, perhaps there is someone out there with CF that knows the answer for sure. My brother has CF however, I dont want to make him uncomfortable with asking him the question because if its not true, I dont want to give him the wrong impression... any help is greatly appreciated :)

Whenever a new heart patient comes to the hospital, it is routine to ask if the patient smokes, exercises, eats right, takes good care of his or her diabetes or blood pressure. It seems that these questions may somehow make the patients feel guilty; guilty of bringing the problem on themselves.
Against this background, I wonder if there is a stigma attached to heart disease. And if this stigma prevents some people from seeking medical attention.
If you have had heart disease, here are my two questions:
- Did you feel like people made you feel like you single-handedly brought it to yourself?
- Do you think a perceived stigma attached to heart disease may have delayed your seeking medical attention?

I have been getting white stuff on my pubic hair. It was on one of my armpits and there was lots of white stuff on it before i shaved it off. It kinda looks like eggs i guess but there was a lot of it. The hair also went very thin and stringy. I also got it a bit on my genitals but only in the area of the leg crease if u know what i mean. Im not sure if its pubic lice because they say the nits are hard to see and the was lots of this white stuff and very easy to see. My genitals seem to smell a bit more than usual but i may be overeacting. dont worry i will get tested but i just wanted to find out if anyone knew what it is. I know its gross so cheers for reading!

My 27-year-old son has bone cancer in his knee. It hasn't spread anywhere else, but is in the intermediate stage in his knee only. He is undergoing chemotherapy and will have to have a total knee replacement. Seems like most people who are cured of cancer end up getting it again later on. Do you know of anyone who didn't? We're hoping he will be cured for life.
