Seems like they should have something by now. I think it's a racist conspiracy that the government is keeping the cure secret.

Over the summer I used Retin-A and by the second week of August it ran out. My acne was clear at that point (maybe 1-2 pimples a month) and I recently switched to Tretonoin (similar to Retin-A) two weeks ago. Well Im back in college and I am starting to break out more than usual. Im wondering whether it has to due with the severe weather change (from mild 75 to really hot 100) or is it the Tretonoin im on. Im puzzled because the medicine says you will break out within the first few weeks but if it was the same as my original (Retin-A) then how is it I am breaking out. Maybe a different formula meaning different brand or is it the weather? Please give me your opinions. Thx.

Hi i suffer from diabetes, and know that one of the most important things is to keep an eye on your feet. About two weeks ago i noticed a lump on the top of my foot under the skin, it wasnt realy uncomfortable at first but has become more painfull over time and seams to make my foot and leg ake. Just wondered if anyone had experianced this before or had an idea about what it could be. I do have a doctors appointment booked to get it checked out.

Had bilateral mastectomy (for DCIS) with reconstruction so fat & muscles are in chest/breast area, MAMMOGRAMS OR X-RAYS NOT RECOMMENDED, WHY?
There was no invasion into lymph nodes.
[mammograms are recommended when one has a breast implant so why not after having a reconstruction with ones own body tissue?]

I have a problem, now whenever I am eating or finish eating, I have a really strong urge to throw up. The only way I can soothe my stomach a little is to eat vegetables. Taking deep breaths doesn't help either. Can anyone help me?

So for a while I've been experiencing these symptoms, but I'm not sure what they mean. Here's what has been going on...

Often when I stand up from sitting or laying down, or just at random tims, all of a sudden my vision gets blurry, sometimes even blacks out for a second, and I feel like I'm going to pass out. I'd say this happens (more or less extreme) at LEAST once or twice a week. And when I haven't eaten for even 2 or 3 hours, I feel extremely faint and shaky. I feel like I eat a pretty good diet too, and I snack quite a bit, haha. I'm vegetarian but I think I do a pretty good job of getting in enough protein/vitamins.

What could this be?!

I have been on metformin consistently for about 5 months or so, and have noticed that I am having a harder time exercising than I ever have before (i.e. I tire out easily and feel like I'm going to throw up). I am in the military, so obviously it's mandatory that I stay in shape. It's to the point now where I can barely run half a mile without feeling the urge to toss my cookies. Does anyone have a similar case? If so, what can I do about it?

small bruise appears on side of temple closest to the eye-no injury
eye hurts when you blink (the half closest to temple hurts)
eye hurts when pressure is put on half closest to temple
