My 7.5 year old son is allergic to cow's milk. (Allergic - not lactose intolerant) He just had his annual RAST test last week. We got the results today - 0.99 'low moderate'. ;-( Another year of reading labels, saying 'no thank you' to unlabelled treats, teaching him to deal with it all graciously.

Anyway, I'm wondering at what age we should give up hope of 'outgrowing' the allergy. What's the oldest you've ever heard of someone outgrowing a milk allergy?

My 18 month old has had a rash on the left side of his body for about a month now. It is red with small bumps and starts under his left armpit and goes down to his hip. It doesn't seem to bother him though. I took him to the doc and the nurse said she thought it may be eczema. He has never had anything like this before, and I am not too convinced that it is eczema. Any ideas what it may be, and if it is not bothering him should I be too concerned about it?

I am 12 years old. I am in 7th grade. I go to a catholic school. In church we must kneel. They have padded kneelers. I usally don't pass out for more than a minute. When I do pass out it is on special masses. These masses are normally longer and have a littlbe bit more people. When I pass out, I dont just go down I can tell when I will faint. After i faint I am usally perfectly fine within about 3 minutes of faiting.
What happens when I faint is-
1. I am usally kneeling. I get pain in my legs
2. The pain go into my back where it gets alot worse.
3. I then get a head ach.
4. My breathing gets louder and everythingthing sound weird. Like it is far away
When I went to the doctors they monitored my heart, blood and urine test, chest x-ray, and the ONLY thing they did to see if it is nuerological was make me follow their finger with my eyes.

Please help. I just got out of 7th grade. 8th grade will start in Septemtember and I need to kneel when graduating...

I will go to the doctor next month after my yard is finished.

Shocking sensation upon certain hand movements.
When lying down in any position, right arm gets tingling sensation, then goes numb, then on and off hot and aching. Standing position makes all that go away, then back to occasional numbness in one finger, and occasional funny shocking sensation (like low volt hot wire fence). On a scale from one to ten in standing position, pain- wise, maybe a 2. Concern, maybe a 5. Laying position after sleep, ache can reach up to a 7. At the seven it feels like a broken bone but in the numb stage I can sleep.

Onset of issue: Springtime raking.
Tried treatments: hand brace at night, anti inflammatories
Slow sit-ups to stretch my spine, shaking hands at night and yelling OMG
Complaining. I think the medicine makes it better but hard to say.

Oh and I think it has made me short. NO wait, I was already short.

Thanks in advance.

I need some help with a medical problem. Doctors can't seem to find a problem, so maybe someone out there can recognize the symptoms. I'll start from the beginning.

I'm a 27-year-old male. About two years ago I started to get vertigo. It would last for a day or a few hours. It would happen every few weeks or so for about a year. It would happen when I was outside working. If felt like the world was spinning, just like the feeling of being on a carnival spinning ride.

6 months go by with no more symptoms.

On News Years of this year I drink and smoke. I wake the next day with my left ear almost deaf and the vertigo is so bad I can't get out of bed for 3 days. I go to the doctor and she gives me congestion medicine. It does nothing. The vertigo calms down after about a week, however the hearing loss is still there. I can barely hear out of my left ear.

5 months go by and I still can barely hear out of my left ear. About every month or so, during these 5 months, I get another vertigo attack. When I have vertigo, the hearing loss gets worse. This will usually last about a day. Then I feel normal except for the hearing loss.

About a week ago I had another vertigo attack and of course my hearing got worse during the vertigo. This time it lasted about a week. I could barely walk the first couple of days. I went to an ENT specialist who did a MRI scan. The ENT found nothing and said everything looks fine and sometimes nerves just go bad. Yes, that's all he said (actually, he had his nurse call and that's what she said when the MRI results came in). He didn't say anything about another test or even a hearing aid. So I'm stuck back at square one with a doctor who doesn't want to help. That makes 3 doctors who have no idea what's wrong.

Recap:
Hearing loss all the time.
Vertigo comes and goes.
When the vertigo comes my left ear goes deafer.
Vertigo sometimes comes when I drink, smoke or work outside.

I hope these symptoms sound familiar to someone out there.

Please excuse the bad grammar and thanks in advance.

My 84 year young mother was recently diagnosed as having kidney disease. Her family doctor has been seeing my mother for years with routine checkups and has just now ordered a blood test to determine functionality of her kidneys. The blood test came back telling my mother's doctor that something was wrong with her kidneys and now my mother has chronic kidney disease. I'm wondering why her physician did'nt order some kind of test to find out if my mothers kidneys were truly doing the job they are supposed to do.

hi, i ask a little while back about getting the pain control for my mum who had bone cancer, so many of you were so helpful. Mum passed away peacefully at home, but still with out her syringe driver. When i last asked you, mum had then changed her mind because her pain control seemed to improved, even though it was agreed from mums gp as the hospice nurse wouldnt allow this. Three days before mum passed away she ask me to get the pump because she had enough, we rang the oncall nurse who said she didnt have one, we range the hospice who had one but couldnt give it to us for the night nurse to set up, she wouldnt collect so she gave mum an injection instead. (we already had the drugs at home for the pump)the next morning we bleep the district nurse,she came out and said she would speak to mums gp,said mum would have it in the afternoon,come afternoon she didnt, the d/nurse had to change the amount require and had to wait to her from the hospice nurse, well 3 days went on still no pump.

no pain, not rashy, and not a bruise.
Alot of my relatives have it. When I told my doctor about it he laughed at me and said maybe it's a bruise. He didn't see it because by the time I went to him it was already gone.
It is not a bruise. It is red or purple. It comes and goes all the time - especially if I'm depressed.

The nurse at work made me eat peanut butter and drink cranberry juice. I was already trying to eat chocolate chip cookies after I checked it. I am not a diabetic but I knew my pressure was ok and that was the only other thing I could think to do is check my sugar.

I found a dead sparrow in my pool, was probably there for at least 3-4 Hours, and its one of those like above ground pools, we have chlorine and I put some pool shock in it. But do you think it's contaminated and dead if go swimming in it? Cause maybe bird flu...cause I dunno how bird would die in there, unless my cat hurt it and it died and fell in or something...I dunno what to do, and my dad will NOT drain it again no matter what.
