I have been substituting sugar for sweetner now, and sometimes after having something with sweetner, 2 hours later I start getting heartburns.
Is it because of the sweetner?
Right now im feeling some heartburns, and for breakfast I had a bowl of all bran flakes with sweetner, is it the cereal and milk combo?

I have a friend who has lung cancer and i was wondering about the price range of such a procedure. I don't want the exact price because it is obviously relative to the pacients condition, however i was curios about whether it was somewhere in the range of thousand of dollars, tens of thousand, hundreds.

Please, I would greatly appreciate anyone's help

My allergiest doctor has recomended allergey shots that start with 2 a week for several months, then 1 a week then once a month or so for about 4 to 5 years. My allergies are for cats, and dust mites primeraly. The effect of these shots does not start for at least 6 months or so. Has anyone had this form of treatment and how effective was or is it.

Will taking an ice bath, affect my body or blood sugar in anyway? I have to do it for sports. Theres a full body bath in a tub. And just for the legs in a garbage can full of ice&water. I'm just wondering if there are any medical concerns, because diabetes affects more than just blood sugar, such as eyes and teeth. So help? (: OH. I have type one diabetes.

I also posted this on the regular Health section. But I want to try this section cause it might be more of a help specific(:

I have never shown signs of asthma in the past, had a sudden allergic reaction (I'm 30) and ended up having "asthmatic bronchitis"... he had me do a breathing test where I blew hard and fast into a tube... my results were 250 first, then 270, then 260... then he had me take a breathing treatment (my first ever) and my results were 310, 330, 320.... obviously there was some improvement after the breathing treatment.. does anyone know what these numbers mean and if they are "normal"? Any thoughts?

I've been to the doctors and he says that it has to do with the tubes that connect my ears, throat and nose. He says that there is nothing that can be done about it, but it is extremely annoying, and it often distracts me from things such as paying attention in school. He prescribed a nasal spray, but it didn't work. I'm 17 years old and my ears have been popping like this since I was 14. It doesn't hurt or anything but I would like for it to go away. I often open and shut my mouth to relieve myself of the pressure but it makes me look like stupid. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there any way for it to stop?

I have had extreme pain, swelling and stiffness in my big toe joint for three months. It started there and within about 3 weeks my ankle swelled up and the pain is excruciating. I can't put a shoe on anymore because my foot is so swollen. I had MRIs with an orthopedist which showed synovitis and rheumatoid problems. I have an appt. with the rheumatologist in a couple of weeks and will suffer until then. The ortho mentioned gout. My symptoms seem consistent however I am a 30 year old woman, 5'7", 115 pounds and my diet is really healthy - I make all my food which is usually chicken or fish, veggies, fruit, cereal, brown rice...not bad at all. I don't fit the profile of gout at all. Is it possible???

Hello my name is Eric. Im 16 years old and my dad is currently diagnosed with PAPILLARY THYROID CARCINOMA, which is Thyroid Cancer.

I have a few questions that are an EMERGENCY.
Here is the story...

-My dad (48) has had this lump in his neck for a few months (tumor) we had no idea what is was so we did not care. a few weeks after i looked it up in the internet and i didnt find anything, he went to the doc anyways and had the tumor removed. then we found out it was a tumor...from the Thyroid Gland...then the doctor told him he had Thyroid Cancer and nothing else..he told my dad to go to a specialist because my dad has to go work out of town....1000miles for 4-5 weeks...so he went to the specialist to see if it was a problem to go out-of-town.

The doctor then did almost nothing and said it did not matter if he left hte Cancer alone for another 4-5 weeks.
Today my mom asked me to investigate how true this was..she is really scared that somehting might happend to my dad...What?

Hulda Regehr Clark claims to have found a cure for cancer and all over diseases, but you have to buy medicinces and 'zappers', which must keep being used ( and bought ) in order to keep yourself healthy. Many people say it works but itsn't officiall for
if it was, a lot of money would be lost. What do you guys think about it? real or just another scam?
