In the summer, the skin above my lip gets darker than the rest of my skin and looks like a moustache. What is it and how do I make it go away?

Lately I have been having a problem feeling like my heart is beating very iregular, but this only seems to occur at night when i'm getting ready to go to bed.
As soon as it gets to be about 9m or so, i strat to get ready for bed, same as usual, but as soon as i lay down I start feeling the heart palpitations. Its not painful but very bothersome and scary to me. I also have a weird feeling in my throught when this happens....anyone have similiar symptoms and if so, any clues to what might be wrong?

go to the doctors but before I do I would like to hear if anyone else has had this and what it could be. Every couple of minutes no matter what I do I get dizzy spells. They only last a little while, but it happens all day everyday. I also go blind in the dark now and that is something that has never happened before. If anyone else has had this happen did you get it checked and what was the cause?

I must have gained 20 pounds over the last 3 months after being told. It must be the wait-I have been waiting 2 months just to get my appointment for my mastectomy. Is this a normal wait? Am I dying in the meantime? How in the world do I get emotions and eating under control with a wait like this?

My wife's 34. 2 weeks ago, in the middle of the night, she told me that her brain was flying, felt tingling sensation in her hands and legs, had difficulty in breathing, was palpitating and so on. The whole night I held her and the next morning i rushed to a hospital. After the usual check ups, the doctor diagnosed it as an Anemia and gave some medicines. Then after a week, again at the same time, she felt the same kind of symptoms. Again I rushed her to hospital and the GP referred her to Neuropsychiatrist who diagnosed it as Panic Disorder. Although she's under medications, she has been suffering from those symptoms more frequently. I'm in dilemma.
I just want to know whether there are any websites where I can scan her med. reports and ask the doctors online. I'm really lost. Please help me.

Alright, so I'll be reading something and as I'm reading a word might appear to be another word and I have to re-read it several times before it appears right. Also I might be staring at something ex. a spot on the floor, and it will appear to be moving. Also I have random moments where my head will shake side to side for like a milisecond. I also get tremers in my fingers. Could this be a neurological problema and do you think it could be serious

I asked the doctor some general questions and concerns I had about HPV. I just want some clarification (I didn't think of it when I was in the doctor's office), but I understand there are two different types of HPV- Low risk and high risk. I asked the doctor about the warts because I have never noticed any and she told me that if the HPV causes changes on the cervix then I most likely will never get the warts.... so does that mean I have the high risk HPV that can lead to cervical cancer? I also asked the doctor what the chances of getting cervical cancer are, and she said slim to none. She also said it will most likely go away in about a year. I definitely plan on going to ever appointment and pap to make sure everything is ok, I just wanted some clarification. Thanks.

For at least 2 years now, I have noticed my right hand changing; first it started with my middle finger feeling stiff and painful in the morning. It has now progressed to all of my fingers feeling stiff, sometimes worse than others.

Is this arthritus? No one in my family has it and I was surprised with this symptom progressing to the point where it really bothers me daily now.

My 2 year old became sick last night. She was running a fever of about 104 degrees. We gave her Children's Tylenol around 1:30 am but it only brought down the fever one degree. This morning when we tried to give her another dosage, she suddenly vomited. Pretty much everything she ate yesterday came out. But after vomiting she seemed slightly better, less fussier and was willing to take a lukewarm bath. After the bath, she slept for 4 hours. We gave her more Tylenol. About 2 hours ago, her temperature finally came down to 100 and she acts more happy. So what could've caused her fever? She showed no signs of having a cold; just a fever and the vomiting episode this morning and some diarrhea. Yesterday the only time she went out was around 6:30 pm to a nearby park with her dad but she didn't have contact with anybody there. Her dad is fine. Could it be from heat (we live in Phoenix) or food poisoning?
