I am a 22-year-old male who has an enlarged lymph node in the left side of my neck. No blood samples had been taken as it was deemed an unnecessary measure (unless they grew or spread). One very large node has been around since I was 5yrs old, so my parents have informed me… I am a heavy smoker and have been for the past 7 yrs, roughly 2-3 packs a day. Unfortunately, it has started spreading to other nodes and now I have 4 of them on the left side of my neck. I am exhausted, and I seem to have a fever with heavy sweating while I sleep. All information alludes to some form of cancer and I absolutely refuse any type of radioactive/chemical treatments, as I would rather die. Can anyone give me any advice? Nor will I go to the doctor that would just run up medical bills for my family and I’d probably die after it was all said and done anyway. To hell with that… Any Organic Herbal remedies? Or am I just SOL.

My father passed away of a massive heart attack over a month ago. After the fact I tried looking up some information about it but I'mnot sure I understand it. So please, do not copy/paste information.
My dad had diabetes & high blood pressure. He stopped smoking over 10 years ago. He also had a large belly ( but his legs and arms were tiny). I know those all increased his odds of having a heart attack.
He has been eating really well for the last few years and had low cholesterol. So am I right to assume that his arteries were not blocked? He did not have a control on his diabetes...
He also passed away in the shower. Did that make a difference?
How long does the massive heart attack last before someone passes away?
I would appreciate any help I can get

I never had sex of any kind. But im worried i might have Genital warts if that is possible. Im not sure if when my
parents did the mongster mash they some how passed that
STD to me, if that is possible? I search genital warts on google
but it does not look like that, its more like small bumps on my penis, that cant be popped, and feel like pebbles underneath my foreskin. Again ima virgin......If it not genital warts what can it be? If this STD is passed to offspring wouldn't of my parents have told me? or maybe they are embarrassed?

Let's say a barber was cutting my hair and at the end he quickly shaves the back of my neck, and the sides of my face with a straight edge razor (he also used hot shaving creme with it). He wipes off my neck and puts on some sort of rubbing alcohol on afterwards. He cleans the razor by washing it in the sink for a few seconds and wiping it off with a towel. Is this enough to consider it sanitary? There were a few tiny shaving cuts afterwards...would the alcohol applied on me afterwards be enough to kill off any sort of disease?

My son went to the doctor last week and they did a CBC on him. On friday the doctor called me and told me that he had a low WBC. His was at 4.0 and the normals are between 5.0 and 16.0. I went to the doctors office and obtained a copy of the CBC and differentials, but this is all greek to me. The absolute neutrophils were also low, they were 1080 and the norm is between 1500 and 1800. The doctor told me to bring him backin for another cbc in 2 weeks and that the low wbc could mean he has a viral infection or it could be an early sign of leukemia, I am freaking out, I don't want my baby to have to go thru treatments for cancer, somebody please tell me what to do. Should I be worried, what should I be looking for, watching for, Is there any testing that we can do in the mean time to find anything else out. I am paincked. Please Help.

I am fourteen. I have many of the symptoms like: fatigue, urinating a lot, excessvie thirst, blurry vision (which I have had since October), and unexplained weight loss. I thought at first maybe the thirstiness was because I just got my toncsils out about a month ago, but I don't think the other symptoms are from this. I have taken risk tests online and I have a "low to medium risk." No one in my immidiate family has diabetes, however I do have an uncle, and some other distant relatives who have diabetes. My mother thinks my weight loss has something to do with my toncsils, but this has been over a month...I eat constantly, I can never really get full but I weight myself and I'm at the same exact weight. I am afraid to tell my mom that I think I have diabetes because my whole family thinks I'm a hypochondriac (I think i'm always sick or something is wrong) and that I just over exaggerate about these problems. If anyone thinks my symptoms are caused by something else please let me know.

My sister died a couple of months ago and after a delayed reaction, my son now seems to need to touch things (especially me and his Dad) two times. Like if I bump his right knee, he makes me bump the left knee too. It started a few weeks ago and has now gotten really bad. Has this happened to anybody else? Does it pass? I do have an appointment to see a psychologist but just wondering what I should be doing to help make it go away (and am worried that it won't). Any info you can give me would be most appreciated. Thanks so much.
