I read an article that aspirin can prevent heart disease, but then I read another article that says it may cause side effects such as abdominal pain, bleeding and ulcers — especially if taken in large doses or for a long period of time.

i've always had allergies with ragweed, hayfever, etc. when i was fifteen i suddenly became allergic to watermelon, which i love and have eaten my whole life! now i'm 18 and can't eat watermelon, cantelope, pineapple, oranges, honeydew, or cucumbers. it makes me feel like there is something stuck in my throat, and sometimes i completely lose my voice! since i kind of "grew in" to these allergies, could there be a chance that i could grow out of them?

also, my dad developed allergies like these when he was fifteen, starting with watermelon. except he is allergic to bananas too. should i expect to stay allergic to these foods because he did?

A friend of my family was just diagnosed with T-3 Lymphoma of the spine in his lumbar region. He is soon to start treatment.
What is his chances of survival? I do not know if it has spread, but he is an older male, in his 40's and he does smoke.

I've read that most people's immune systems fight off the HPV virus on their own. I've also read that the virus stays in your body for life and you will never get rid of it. WHICH IS TRUE??

I can see some of you might offer advice? I have a base of tongue growth 8mm with focal calcifications extending down, right side asymmetry in throat as well and two levels of borderline nodes, bilaterally up to 12 mm. ENT at first wanted to do biopsy when he saw CT report, but then looked inside and said it is likely incidental. I get neck pain in front and back on the right side intermittenly, which is why I saw him in first place and because of my nodes, but they have been there for awhile. The focal calcifications with the growth worry me. Is this nothing to worry about?

I've been taking it for four days so far. It says to take it up to 10, so I know that it still has some time to finish working. I just wanted to know when people usually feel totally relieved from the symptoms... does it take the full 10 days?
