I have lumbar and cervicle stenosis. For a couple of years, I've had issues with short term memory. Can stenosis cause short term memory loss or do I need to look elsewhere for the cause?

I do not have Herpes, This is just something I was wondering...

So, if someone has a cold sore, and someone unknowingly to the sore kisses them and develops a cold sore on their lip, does that neccesarily mean that it's Herpes?? Is it possible to catch a cold sore off of someone that does not have Herpes??? Stupid question I know but I was just wondering...

It really doesn't matter what I eat. I always have these hives on my tongue. They get worse when I eat certain things like. If I eat at fast food french fries..My tongue starts swelling and hurts. I am not sure exactly what is causing it. Long John Silvers makes my tongue swell and hurt very badly. Do you have any clue what could be causing this. I went and saw my doc around a year ago when I started noticing this. She said she had never encountered anyone with this issue. I am beginning to wonder if I need to be tested for food allergies. I am allergic to several antibiotics and have always been a little sensitive to all kinds of fabrics, earrings, perfumes, body lotions.

I can't understand why I am so ashamed of having this crappy disease. It is not like I calused it. I am embarrassed I guess. So many people stay in the closet for many years before speaking out. With cancer people tell everyone immediately with MS people tell people when it is absolutely necessary
