Diseases & Conditions - 6 April 2007

I am starting to wonder if I have genital herpes. The only things wrong with me are that once in awhile sex hurts--mostly a burning sensation down there...and the other symptom is extreme itchiness down there. I don't have any sores or bumps though. It has only happened a couple of times though, so maybe I just tore something during sex? I have only had 3 sex partners, and 2 of them had never had sex before me. The third person used a condom both times we had sex. Any ideas as to what's wrong with me? Thanks!

I have been dealing with an epsodic attacks. This has left me with a tracheostomy. I was a 32 year old healthy nurse. In may of last year I fell to the ground at my sons baseball game unable to breath. I have since experienced over 30 simular attacks. I can not breath dispite the trach. unless assisted by ventaliton. Breaking every blood vessel in my face while having this attack is the newest of symptoms. These attacks last from hours to a day. Usuallyx-ray revelies fluid in lungs. I have seen every speciality Dr. I know of and no one has a clue. This past week I was in Teneseee Visiting my mom, while being air lifted to Nashville no one there still knows what could be causing what i consider to be life threating respitory failure attacks. I am awaiting an appointment at the mayo clinic, hoping for some anwsers. I just wish there was a real life House who would take my case.

How come you don't get STD's when you stay abstinent and do it til you're older but you get STD's when you do it at like....12? Also, if you are doing it and you slip "it" out before you *** on the partner(and *** on their stomache or something), can they get pregnant?...(silly question)

Please, I really don't need random people trying to give an answer or be the hero of the day by making something up to get two points. Please, this is very important, and I really need honest answers.

It turns out that my husband and I will be terminating life support for our little baby girl of 10 months tomorrow. The doctors can not do anything more for her and she is obviously suffering and getting worse. The spark has gone out of her eyes and she is just sad all the time. Her machines keeping her alive are going up and we feel it is the right thing to do to let her go peacefully and be out of pain. I want to thank all those in the past who offered support during the forum about other children that have been taken before their time. They will always live in our hearts .

Do regular doctors carry Clarocet in their pharmacies? Do I have to go to a COSTLY Herbalist to get this drug? Also, I'd like to avoid ordering on-line without the permission of a doctor if I can. Where can I go to get this?

I need to start exercising, due to my age and long-term inactivity. The problem is, I don't feel like doing so.Many tests, often involving the gall bladder, have turned up negative. My parents, especially my Dad, STILL think I need it taken out.What can any docotr, especially specialists,advise me about?Is there a medication, a food, or something else that could get me out of my funk? My GI doctor has tried those tests,even getting rid of a blockage around the Sphincter of Oddi. We all were hoping that'd do the job.It didn't WHAT ELSE CAN I DO? Would something like Danactive help? Herbs? My medications that have probably caused this include,but are not limited to,OxyContin,OxyCodone,and ZyvoxI've lived with my paerents for over three-and-a-half years.I turned 40 in late Feb.PLEASE,any advice would be helpful?

I've been self treating a bladder infection for 4 weeks (cranberry juice, live culture yogurt...) I'm only a little better (Still have frequent urges, but I'm actually going when I think I have to now) No back pain. Should I go see a doctor or give it 4 more weeks? Any other treatments that might help? Thanks!

My mom is a very active person. Because of her lumpectomy, port surgery, and chemotherepy (starting Monday), she's going to have to remain in the house all day. It's driving her nuts, and not helping her mood. What can she do to occupy herself (alone) and help her depression? Thanks a billion.
