My husbands mother had outpatient surgery done in May because of lack of blood flow to foot. They put a stint in to open the arteries. That procedure was good and she seemed to get immediate releif from the symptons. At one of her regular check ups they found that they blood flow had stooped again and they could not get pulse in that foot. She was scheduled to have same outpatient surgery again last Thursday It was unsucessful. Yesterday they did surgery to re-route the arteries after the surgery they said all went well. It was about a 4 hour surgery. They put her in ICU for the night and when I called this morning to check on her they said that even after the surgery they still could not get a pulse in that foot and they can not get one in the groin area of that leg either. The nurse told that is not good news. Is she in jepordy of losing that foot. Also she had triple bypass heart surgery in February and had a very hard time recovering from it. She was in hospital then for about 5 wk

My daughter develop 40.5 fever since yesterday .
I just give plenty of water because she doesnt have any other syntoms, she eats well, and obviously at the end of this day she was less active than normal.
I don't want to take to the doctor because I hate to give her antibiotics what ever is the disease, she has been all of this three years taking antibiotics every time she had bronchitis, tonsilitis, gastroenteritis.
I just give before bed today camomille tee with propoli (3 drops) one spoon of hone and one lemon. I hope I did the right.
Question, what can be the problem? if she doesn't complain anything? only high fever? thank you :)

I'm sometimes light headed, short of breath, and dizzy. I am breastfeeding my baby (13 weeks post pardum). I have gone into the doctor for these symptoms before (minus the high heart beat rate), and the doctor can't find anyting wrong with me except for some fluid in my ears (causing my equilibrium to be off). I'm going to the doctor again on Wednesday to check out my heart rate, etc. Do you have any ideas that I can suggest to my doctor to look for?

Thanks!

Big stomachs tend to run in the family. I am not a big person, but my large abdomen makes me look as if I am. It is also difficult for me to sleep at night because of the extra weigh. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My grandpa desperately needs to have quadruple bypass surgery done. His platelets are low though so he cannot go under the knife for fear his blood won’t clot and heal correctly. Prednisone hasn’t succeeded in changing his platelet count and he should be in surgery Monday. Seriously bad things can happen if you delay heart operations. He’s already had a stint collapse and I’m scared! Has anyone gone through this? Had a family member, friend? What can I do? What will happen?

bloating, blood in the urine, ect like me, why does she get a stabbing pain around where the kidneys are? Like a sharp stabbing pain lasting for about 10-20 seconds around where the kidneys are. It has gone away now. But could this mean the cancer is spreading? I get a feeling it s. But I need to know your opionion about this. Would a ovarian cancer patient get stabbing pains that last for a short time around near the kidneys? Urgent advice.

I fell over a couple of months ago messing around. Whilst sprinting I jumped up to grab a leaf off a tree and lost my footing. I now have a mark on my cheekbone - redness of the skin. I have tried BioOil and although this is working, it is taking some time to heal.

This happened to me recently and I would like to know if it has happened to someone else...and what did you do about it?

I went to Busch Gardens not long ago with my diabetes supplies in a small bag (meter, glucose gel, a glucagon kit, an extra pump infusion set). As I was getting in line for a roller coaster, the person at the entrance told me I could not take my bag in line. I told him that I was a diabetic and the bag contained everything I needed in case of an insulin reaction. I told him in no uncertain terms that the bag was going with me. I was not going to wait in line for an hour, in the extreme heat, with no supplies and no water bottle. I told him I would leave the bag on the loading dock and that I was responsible for it. After much hemming and hawing, he finally let me pass. This really upset me. I needed to have those supplies with me but he couldn't have cared less.

Has this happened to anyone else?
