Diseases & Conditions - 21 April 2007

Well, I woke up yesterday with congested sinuses and this morning I woke up and the little flap of skin in the back of my throat (no idea what it's called) was so swollen that it makes me gag when it folds forward because i can feel it on my tongue.

It makes swallowing difficult and feel weird, and it's just uncomfortable.

How much I bring the swelling down? I took some dayquil and a decongestant.

if you hold your breath...untill you become so suffocated that you get unconscious...is it your death? or are you gonna start breathing again unconscious and gain consciesness and at last be come fully conscious?!..its because i have heard that when some one is trying to suffocate his victim...when it struggles he keeps holding the victims air way..but right after the victim stops moving...he lets go of its air way...! and it seems that always the victim is dead already!//but it is really the end?,,or the victim ..simply got unconscious due to temporary hypoxic shock...and he will be start breathing again and gaining it again..!?..i know..that..the respiration centre will not stop right after you get unconscious..!..so it will run your engine again!?...please..some one..tell me the right answer!!

Can someone answer me,please?

Two years ago i was walking with a friend of mine who has a son(at the time 2 years old)and while we were talking he found a syringe with a nedle and when i saw him i tried to remove it from his hand and i am afraid that while i was doing this the nedle penetrated into my skin,exactly in the palm of my hand.There was no blood but i had the feeling that the nedle penetrated my skin.I have never had sex(i am 20 but it is not strange in the culture of my country to be virgin at this age), or made use of drugs,and i am getting crazy when i think that i may have contracted Aids.I have suffered from thrush of the mouth since i was 14 but in these two years it also happened to me to have mouth herpes(small ones occurring rarely) i have got flu one time each year,but now i cought a cold and i am having coughs and sneezing and headache.I refused to go out with the guy i like because i am afraid, i may have Aids, i have a job interview but they are going to make me a medical clearance prior to employement.I have not had symptoms such as rushes,fever or diarrea,but my tongue looks strange ,it is coated with patches,fissures and some times with some white lines on both sides,can this be hairy leukoplakia.Twice i had sweats before menstuations i think,but my friend at the medicine faculty says that this time i cought a cold very easily.Aids is not frequent in my country and i think that the syringe was there a day before i touched it,but still i am really getting crazy.How long can the virus of Aids survive in the nedle of the syringe.I am afraid to lose the guy i love and the best job i could ever have,and above all the idea people have of me.Please if a doctor sees this..help me!Sorry for my english, i am a foreigner.Please,please,please...

Measles and Rubella are the biggest killers of children under 5 - representing almost 40% of of preventable deaths of children under 5 and cause long term health problems in adults who have not been vaccinated or have not had boosters - they are low cost and realtively safe - (one serious averse reaction per 1,000,0000 people immunized) and represent to a household longterm savings on unnecessary health related expenditure - but many people do not get immunized - especially during opporunites for free vaccines during National Immunization Campaigns - why?

i want beautiful clear smooth skin, is there a surgery or anything that will gurarantee clear smoot skin??

im desperate. i would kill for a day with beautiful skin because i've never had it my entire life.

i cant even talk to people.

i feel extremely sad, and hurt by this.
