It would be good if I had dark circles below my eyes at least I could get rid of them :(
I don't know what could be the cause -I get enough sleep, I eat fruit and vegetables, I drink enough water, I am phisically active but still feel unrested when I wake up in the morning, my head hurts (not much but still) almost every day (or very often I would say - ) and the ˝biggest˝ problem is that on the inner corner of my eyes (above the nose - not in the middle) I don't really know how to describe where, I hope someone will figure out form this) - anyway It's not dark circles (black as they usually are - and not below the eyes, as I said) but blue, almost dark sky blue....and I don't know what to do anymore - I just cover it up wit liquid powder, but that you can see, and if it stays on too long it's not very sightly, and I can't even wash my face when somewhere...the gym or sth...anyway if someone has the same problem or knows how to get rid of this I would be very grateful
tnx a lot ;)

Hi, I was wondering if anyone know anything about diabetes. I have always had headaches and have had diabetes for 20 years. I have type 1. I have always ran high sugars. But lately I have had headaches come on very bad and fast and then I get confused and my arms go numb and my eye sight isn't clear.This last for just 30 minutes or so and then its gone and I am just tiered after that. Should I be concerned? Or am I just getting some different headaches? Should I go and see my doctor? I hate to see the Doctor every time something is different.

As I've gotten older, I seem to be more and more allergic to bug bites. An average mosquito bite will swell to anywhere from nickel to quarter size on my body, and I'm the kind of person that seems to attract every mosquito in a 3 mile range. But whether it is from a mosquito, a chigger, a tick or whatever, the bites swell to large sizes and last for 1 to 2 weeks, on average.

My question is this: is there any medical venue for me to pursue in an effort to put an end to this misery? I already try to spray myself down with bug spray before spending time outdoors, but it's gotten to the point that I'm reluctant to even go out to the mailbox without that protective layer of bug spray.

Any ideas?

Approximately 8 months ago, my husband used a sulfuric acid based drain opened on our bathroom sink, which ate through the plumbing and spilled onto the floor. He had flour and baking soda to soak up the spill, but I walked into bathroom and accidentally got some of the liquid on the bottom of my right foot. No pain but burning sensation and felt hot...skin invariably peeled off from heel to base of toes. Still has not totally healed. Now, when my foot is damp from sweat after working all day, or after I get out from soaking in the tub, the skin on the bottom of my right foot peels away...just by walking on the rug or carpet, and the skil just rolls off. Leaves a red, raw area which BURNS and then later itches like crazy. I've used topical steroid creams and ointments, and have yet to find something that will totally heal the area. Have been on antibiotics twice, but no effect. Have tried antifungal, still no help. Anyone have any ideas? My MD is even stumped.

I am currently suffering a recurring Pilondial Sinus. The first was discovered in september last year and subsequently removed by incision and primary closure of the wound in january, resulting in a 4-5 inch scar between my butt cheeks. A second sinus is forming lower down (closer to my anus), and the scar from the initial surgery has started to breakdown.

Has anyone out there experienced similar problems with Pilonidal Sinus and how long did it last before you experienced no recurrances?

I have already switched to a dye and perfume free detergent, so that may rule that out as the cause of the skin irritation. Thanks.

I have constant sharp pain in the upper abdominal area that occurs randomly throughout the day. It so painful sometimes that I have to lie down, but it only last for a few seconds, and is often times followed by another and another. I do not see any relation to food except that it causes me to lose my appetite, or eat a little and feel full. I am very skinny (94-98 lbs, 5'5), and all my friends and family always ask if I have an eating disorder. I do not!!!!! I just can't explain my gradual loss of weight over this two-thee yr period. The pain continues today, and doctors have prescribed antacids but they are beginning to not work anymore. My appetite is being suppressed again and the pain came back. In addition to this, I have loss my period for over two years. I had menstruated at least two times before it stopped. My doctor says that this is normal, but I don't agree. I want an explanation for this pain and my cycle stopping and she treats me like a 10yr old with a tummy ache. Help

What kinds of programs are out there for a type 1 diabetic?
He has no insurance, has a job, under poverty level, single male with no children.
Some form of insurance or perscription plan would be great.. any one know of anything?

I have a really good older friend who seems to be "different". He is cranky and confused and sleeps a lot more. I am worried about dementia as he lives alone. His doctor is hopeless, what can I do? Are there any tests etc?
