So I think I might have had contact with someone who has hep b. I didn't sleep with him but he gave me oral sex. (i am a girl) I am vaccinated and as of last year i was immune to it. How long do I have to wait to be tested? Also when the vaccine runs out in say 15 yrs am I going to get it? Could it just be "sitting in my body?"

I need to find a medication that is similar to Allegra 180mg. I have to refrain from taking Benadryl cause it makes me sleepy and if I have to work in the afternoon it doesn't help me much if I cannot function. The medication has to be over the counter. Help?

I recently got a new cat from the Humane Society and a few days later I was itchy all over my body but no redness or rash. I have another cat and this has never happened before. I can't think of anything else that has changed that would cause itching. Any help?

I just got diagnosed, and after months of have a severely irritated outer vagina, I also have a very irritated anus. It hurts to have a bowel movement and it also itches. My doctor's office said that the problems I have been having are probably related to testing positive for HPV. I don't feel any warts on my vaginal area, yes, there are some very sore parts, irritated skin and bleeding every now and then. My anus also bleeds everytime I have a bowel movement. Is there treatment for this? Or is this my life now?? HELP!

I had polio as a child, (I was 5 years old before I could walk. I'm 52 now) and now I feel like it is returning. At times I can barely walk. My doctor say once you get over polio it's over. I had my hips x-rayed and the cartalage is wearing away.

Ok, their is this lad at school, who is going to one way or another get me with ichting powder, so i want to see his face as he puts the powder on me, and I have no reaction/hardly any reaction. Is their anything i can put on the patch where he poured it to neautralise it, and to stop it itching quickly? I also have really sensitive skin, so this could be a problem!

thanks

I think my girlfriend may have chronic bronchitis, even though she doesn't want to believe this, the reason I think she does is because last year she had bronchitis 4 times, and so far this year it's been 3 times, not to mention just today, the doctor said she was getting it AGAIN, so that sounds like 8 times within 1 1/2-1 2/3 years and I think it's becomming a serious problem. What tips can I offer her? also quitting smoking will stop this? i'm open to suggestions, thanks.

okay so it's embarressing but i have acne.
no just what your thinking ...not just that one little pimple.
i am being treated for cystic acne and it's so embarressing. i just want it to be over. It feels like i'm the only one my age with this problem. I mean i can't talk to my friends about it cause you know its kinda gross and they probly wouldn't believe me because i don't have the cysts on my face all the time.
Does anyone understand what i'm going through?
i feel like i'm the only one with this problem

I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism 2 years ago. I had always had opposite symptoms of hyper, symptoms more like hypo. I was sick all the time, cold all the time, extremely weak, would almost fall asleep at work even in the middle of typing and getting training *blush*, weight gain, depression, etc.
I just read in another yahoo answers that when thyroid is hyperactive the TSH levels are low and hypoactive TSH levels are high. I had very very high. I guess normal is like 30% to 35% and mine was in the 90% range. They said I was hypo at first then rechecked and said I was hyper. So now I'm so confused. They put me on tapizole and it brought me to normal levels....but why was everything including TSH levels opposite?
Also.....a few years before diagosed I got very depressed. I seemed to have lost myself and had terrible judgement that only got worse. I fell out of love with a long time bf. Since treatment I've gotten better and realized I never stopped loving him. Do you..
