NED - as in No Evidence of Disease..
When someone gets to the 5-year mark, they are considered Cancer Free. But do they continue to get scans, and tests? Or does insurance no longer cover it? Some people would want to continue to get checked out? What happens..

All day today I have been feeling like I have acid coming up and I feel like throwing up. It started after I had two cups of coffee this morning around 9am and ever since that I feel burning in the throat. I can contantly clear what ever it is out of my throat and the feeling will go away. If I stop clearing it out of my throat about 3 minutes go by and I feel like throwing up again. I don't have a cough although as far as I can remember I have always had a lot of flem in my throat. This has happend before and I have not taken anything for it and It will eventually go away. If this happens can I just take some pepcid ac or something to clear it up, instead of just waiting for it to go away?

I had the most unfortunate and tragic experience of seeing my son dead in the morgue. His ear was all dark purple and there was something draining from his neck/back of head. What was/causes that? He died in a mountain bike race from heart fibrillation believed to be caused by an extreme adrenalin rush. He did have a bicuspid heart. He appeared to have no other visible injury from collapse. I'm just trying to understand what little I can.

The 3 jaw surgery I had undertaken had to do with facial asymetry. I wore braces for almost 3 yrs and still my asymetry has not been resolved. The jaw surgery was not for cosmetic reasons, but for medical purpose. Can anyone reccommend a good orthonagtic surgeon and tell me roughly the costs? SOS

Oftentimes when i go on weekend trips i get several bug bites and the people who are with me get none. Family members have told me that it's because Diabetes runs in my family, could this be a contributor? Also if you have anysuggestions to help the itching or preventative measures, I would be glad to hear them. I do use mug sprays but they don't seem to work, even ones with deet.

I have the feeling that the regular 100mcg Ventolin is losing its effect. Mild-severe attacks that used to be managed by 2, 3 puffs at most now require 5, 6 puffs. I'm a bit scared, actually, that when push comes to shove, the stuff won't be enough. Also it feels it's all acting slower. What do you think this is about???

Ok, I am not sure if I have it or not , and I would like more info before going to the doctor. I've had vaginal discharge, and its itchy but no bumps, and I'm lactating, I've never been pregnant and am not currently, And I've kissed my bf a lot, before I thought I had an std, and he hasnt had any symptoms. But sometime my mouth gets really itchy as well..I dont know if it is all in my head either! Any advice? what are some of the symptoms of Herpes or a hormone imbalance?I have been tested for other std's and I did at one point have chlamydia, & bv. but that had been cured. Then the discharge & itchiness came back so I went and got tested again and the results were negative..So I'm a bit confused! help!

Can anyone help with internet sources on Ebola Reston? I seem to be only coming up with references to Preston's 'Hot Zone' and conspiracy theories about how world militaries are trying to mutate Reston and weaponise it.
What I need is specifics - I realise these are hard to come by for ebola but things such as the duration period, symptoms etc would be a great help. And any speculation on possible reservoirs by qualified professionals would also be a big help. Thanks.

it'll be two months today that my Mom past away from Ovarian Cancer and the one thing that I have a hard time doing is listening to certain music. Mostly anything that she liked, and of course, music that we played for her while she was in paliative care. I can handle talking about her death, sharing memories of her with family and friends, but I just can't do music.

is there anything for you that you avoid because it's too painful?

I know this isn't something that happens overnight and can be impossible but...I have a friend who was diagnosed with cancer 3 years ago. She was told she had 3 months to live. When she was diagnosed the cancer pretty much had taken over from her stomach to her brain and almost everythign inbetween. She's an amazing person who has been through hell and back. From the beginning, she's kept a journal. Myself and other friends have talked to her about sharing her story and experiences. I know it would be inspirational to others as well. I'm always honored to call her my friend. If you have any ideas, please let me know. Thank you.

When those disinfection wipes/spray say "kills 99.9% of germs"...Why not just spray it again? or would it kill 99.9% of the germs from the previous 99.9%?
