Can someone explain what it means and is 24 really really high or is it average? I think I have hoshimotos. I have not taken my synthroyd in about 6 months and I feel like crap. I started bleeding, clotting and cramping really really bad and they said I was having a misscarriage but I knew that was not it. I do not have insurance so it is very hard for me to get any treatment because I do not have the money. Ahhhhhh, I need help. What symptoms will I have and what should I look for. What will happen if I don't get treatment. I know I need to trust me but I don't have the money for it. I will look into some assistance.

My Mom's "friend" is trying to get her to give her insulin, eventhough she's not diabetic, because she thinks it helps her burn sugar faster... What are the effects of a non-diabetic taking insulin shots???

I can't find any information on what other types of breast cancer symptoms there are other than the obvious, breast lumps, discharge, changes in physical appearance etc. Anyone have any other symptoms associated with cancer?

Tonight my sugar soared after using my albuterol inhaler for my asthma. I asked a doctor, a registered nurse, a physician's assistant and a pharmacist and they all insisted my eleveted levels were NOT from the inhaler, however when I researched this online I learned that albuterol CAN in fact elevate blood glucose. Has anyone else noticed higher levels after using albuterol?


I will discuss this with my diabetes specialist... until then I am looking for others who may have experienced this.

A student of mine has a disability. I haven't looked at her records, but thought maybe someone would recognize her symptoms.
She has vision problems, but does not wear glasses. When she talks to you, she does not look directly at you, but rather over the top of your head.
She has a limp and one of her hands is very stiff. She seems to have problems gripping with that hand.
She does not appear to have any learning disability.
Is this cerebral palsy?

I can't have a bowel movement with manually massaging there. I only go about twice a week and it's torment when I do. It takes about 2 hours (several trips) and 2 rolls of tp. It starts out like thick paste and ends all watery like diarrhea. I have to strain and massage the whole time. I just don't know what to tell a doctor or if I could tell one face to face. I need to have it checked out but I'm so embarrassed. What could it be and what kind of doctor do I need? Please don't make fun. I'm miserable. It's been going on for years.

It started as a small pimple. I am pretty certain it's infected. I drained it when it became a white head, just as any other pimple. I then cleaned it with peroxide and put bacitracin on it. I went to sleep and then woke up and my nose was red and slightly swollen. I cleaned the area again with peroxide and put more bacitracin on it.

It's now two days later, and I've had to basically squeeze on the end of my nose every time I go to clean my nose and large amounts of puss come out. My nose is moderately swollen, hurts, and what's worse is the pain feels as if it's spread into my right nostril.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm planning to go see a doctor, but I just wonder if something I'm doing is making things worse.
