I was having this discussion about people abusing drugs and stealing other people's inhalers for 'the high'. I would never let anyone touch my inhaler except for me. But How would it affect their bodies. I think there would be major heart problems because it makes one heart beat faster. But specifically, what does the medicine affect someone;s body if they dont need it and they dont even have asthma?

I found out 8 or more months ago I had Trich, i didnt catch it from my current boyfriend, and i wore a condom when i was infected... It was so embarrassing. I went to the gynocologist and she gave me pills. After I took the pills i had no more symptoms. So Im Assuming I was cured...2 days ago i started having the same symptoms again... I have been with the same guy for 7 months. Could he just have had it and not know from his last relationship, and just now gave it to me?? Or Is it possible that ive still had it since then? .... Somebody said i could get it from not washing my sheets after i took the pillz.. but what about a blanket? i dont remember if i washed it before i put it away or not.... *!* Confused *!* Please Somebody Help Me *!*!*

I was adviced to get a sonogram of my thryoid done. My doctor told me the results today and I guess I kinda blanked-out when he said to check if its benign or not.

Here is what my results says:

Clinical History: 20 yr-old female; r/o thyroid nodule
Right Lobe: 3.4 cm x 1.7 cm x 2.0 cm. Normal in size. Nodule is noted measuring 1.4 cm x 1.0 cm with minimal increased blood flow pattern in the perphery.
Left Lobe: 3.5cm x 1.3cm x 1.2cm. Normal in size. Echo paattern is normal. No solid or cystic lesion is seen.
Istamus of thyroid gland measures 4mm which is within normal limits.

Conclusion
1. Evidence of 1.4cm in the right lobe of thyroid gland.
2. Suggest correlation with nuclear medicine thyroid scan to exclude hyperfunctioning nodule and subsequently to consider biopsy of this solitary nodule.

I know that I might have to have a biopsy. He said the nodule is solid not liquid so they can't drain it. I'm kinda at a loss and I guess scared. What can this all mean?

I heard recently that it's caused by fungus. Can it be cured systemically the same way fungus toenails are cured with Lamisil?

I was hoping someone out there knows of a home remedy that works.

Thanks!
