My mom and I both woke upwith all those symptoms. What is it? We were thinking maybe food poisoning, but the last time we both ate the same thing was about 24 hours ago. And how do I treat this? Everytime I eat I just throw it back up. Help?

I contracted Trichomoniasis from my boyfriend of three years. I found out at my ob gyn appt. I confronted him because I have been committed and faithful. He was treated for the std at his initial appt. They prescribed the meds then since he told them what he had. Now, they just sent him a letter stating that all his tests came back clean. How the heck is that if I didnt have sex with anyone else? If I am not to blame....and he admitted to infidelity...whats up with the tests?!!!

Someone told me that ADVAIR DISKUS can/could
cause heart problems & that it can/could
cause someones heart to stop.
(1.) Is that true???
(2.) Why or Why not???
(3.) Why would she say such a thing that isn't true???

The person told me it made her have heart problems.
But if that was true I wouldn't think that
the FDA would approve of the drug& doctors wouldn't
prescribe it.
I'm so worried about taking it now.
I'm going to see if my psycharist will help me
take it tonight just in case I have a serious side
effect of the medince & just in case I have a allergic
reaction to the medince since my whole family
doesn't take things seriously.
(3.)Should I have my psycharist help me take it tonight???
(4.) Why or Why not???
(5.) Why does she think Advair Diskus caused her heart problems???
