I have been diagnosed with tonsillitis. I have been spitting up bits of blood almost every morning since march. I been to two doctors. A normal doctor and a specialist and still I have no relief of this pain.
Clearly the antibiotics is not working, I've taken so many that am tired taking them. Nuffing is working.
My throat feel swollen and my ears feel full.
The other day I got this pain in my throat that went from my throat to my head. Both head and throat was hurting at the same time. It lasted for a few minutes. During this time I could not talk.
I don't know what to do because no medication is working. I can't even gargle neither.
I will like someone to tell me what is the worse that can happen or if will get better on its own?
Hopefully a doctor can answer too

I was diagnosed with gallbladders disease after just about the worst biliary attack I could possibly imagine. And after doing some research on the web I've come to learn that gallbladders disease and pregnancy come hand in hand in certain circumstances. My question is this, for any women that have had gallbladders disease during or after their pregnancy, did the stones disappear (because ive read that they can) and how did you cope with the pain? I'm so scared to eat now and I feel like I'm on the edge of my seat just waiting for the next attack. All the information anyone has on Gallbladders disease would be wonderful. Thanks so much!

A good friend of mine has breast cancer and is receiving chemo therapy and soon radiation. She is 54. She is having problems finding foods to eat, and I would like to try and help. She can't eat soy, eggs have caused problems, and cottage cheese made her sick. All your suggestions would be of great help, especially if you have gone through this yourself or with someone close to you.

I have been taking my allergy tablets then suddenly tonight I went outside for about 10 mins and when I came in my nose became unbearable itchy and I started scratching it. That side of my nose has slightly swelled and turned red.

My doctor gave me allergy tablets called 'Neoclarityn' but never said what allergy I have because it could be a number of things.

If you were to guess what the allergy was what would you say and how would you prevent it and what should I do etc etc.

Help appreiciated I always give 10 pts...

If a woman has breast implants doesn't it make it really hard for the scanner to pick up on any breast tumours? I used to work in a breast cancer unit and the scans from the women with implants were impossible to read because you couldn't see if there was a tumour there or not.

Do you think that (overall) this would mean that women with breast implants were more likely to die from breast cancer as it would be harder to diagnose?

I'm not a professional but I'd be interested to hear from anyone who is any knowledge of this?

thank you

Do any of the groups studying different types of cancer or other diseases really want to find a cure? If they did, they'd all be out of jobs. Aren't they just trying to develop drugs to treat the symptoms?

My chest feels hollow with some pain but no"elephant", like I hear about. I'm sweating from just trying to write this. I'm 47, female, 125lbs and except for bad joints, in fairly okay health. Except for this. I'm afraid if I stand up, I will faint. Should I try to move around to get my pulse higher or just stay still until this passes. I feel terrible and I don't know what to do. My daughter has mono and bad tendonitis in her wrist with surgery in a week or so. I need to take care of her not vice versa. She's 14. Any suggestions on what I can do? Please help. I feel like the air has no oxygen in it.
