I have a cyst at the middle joint of my thumb. My husband helped me to drain it about 2 months ago, but now it is back. It is somewhat sore. I have been reading about ganglion cysts, but they seem to be located on the wrist. Are there any medical people out there that are familiar with this condition? Is it safe to just drain it once in awhile?

last weekend I was terrified of collapsing, on a Saturday of course. I wrote a "statement" not a question, per say about ER's in general. I would like to apologize. I commend your desire to be in that profession in the first place, I always wanted to be a nurse...I just can't stand needles. Please accept my appology and thank you for being there, at all hours, everyday. (if you can't tell, I am less stressed and felling better now) My best to you. Diana

My husband was told years ago that he is borderline diabetic. He isnt on meds; he just has to watch his diet and eat something sweet every day or two to keep his sugar levels up. (I've never seen his sugar get too high, it just gets too low sometimes.) He has been having some other problems the past few months, and now the dr is saying it might be diabetes-related, and he has to go get it checked and probably start taking meds. Would that be type 1 or type 2? Will he have to go on insulin or pills, or adjust his diet? Just looking for opinions or info from someone in a similar situation.

I got tested and it says 0.728. During my pregnancy it was around 5, I think.
Unfortunately I'm still having the same old anxiety attacks, palpitations at night and constant restlessness. It got sooooo much worse after I delivered my baby 6 months ago. Sometimes I feel like I can't even get out of the house. My doctor isn't sure if the cause for that is my thyroid in the first place.
Could it be or am I in the good range? And, am I the only one with these symptoms?
