I recently was in Lynwood womens jail in LA County and got a staph infection. I hear that the sheriffs dept is reimbursing medical expences and will pay up to $2000. Does anyone know anything about this?

It started suddenly about two months ago. When I tried to stand up. I am off balance and look like I am staggering (drunk) until I get steady.

Sometimes have pain in my joints, hands, bones, and even my nerves. I went to the chiropractor. He x-rayed my lower back because my disks are discinigating and found something odd in the fleshy part near my hip joints. He didn't know what it was. I took the x-rays to the doctor. He got me an appointment with a rehumitoid doctor for August 9. But my insurance company wouldn't approve the MRI to find out what the mass in my butt is (don't laugh).

In the meantime, I am in pain from my neck to my hands and feet. It could be arthritus, carpul tunnel, osterprosis, or a zillion other things. Any ideas or experience with this? I came on all of the sudden. I am 60 years old.

I just found out I have HPV 3 days ago. I told my ex the same day and he said he was sorry and that's it. I get the feeling that since he's never had an outbreak that he thinks he didn't give it to me, but my doctor said that given my history that I must've just come in contact with it in the past few months and my ex was the only person I've been with in the past year!

My friends say to wait for karma but out of the 75% of sexually active men with HPV only 1% of them get an outbreak, so he may never get one and I don't have time to wait. I want payback now. Part of the reason I'm so pissed is because I just saw a personals ad he posted on Craigslist LAST NIGHT saying that he's looking for some "disease free" when he's the one walking around with HPV.

I don't know what to do because I know revenge is very un-Christian like, but I need payback, and I was working on the anger but the CL ad was the last straw. What can I do to get revenge but he won't know it was me? Any ideas?

ok, my throat is very red and sore, and I noticed a red bump in the back of my throat....like where the throat forms to the roof of the mouth, in between that area. The bump is very red and about the size of a m&m and it hurts to touch. I had sex a few days ago, is this strep throat, mono or std? Has anyone had strep with just one fairly big sore/bump in back of throat? Thanks

He seems to sometimes drift on the road while driving. He said he feels tired....can this be the nicotine withdrawl? This never happened before. He quit "cold turkey" from a pack a day!

anywhere I look on the internet, it says allergic reaction promotes red bumps, not white. I gave him Benadryl and rubbed cortisol cream over his body which doesn't seem to help much...any suggestion before I fork the hundreds of dollars to go to ER or urgent care?

I was born with a murmur and the doctor told my parents it would go away on it's own and it hasn't.

I've recently had really sharp pains that would go away after 10 mintues or so. I'm only 21 by the way.

Who can I see for this? Can my regular doctor refer me to a specialist so I can get it checked out? Thanks!
