My 8 year old daughter eats horrilble, nasty things. I would go into detail, but i'll just let you use your imagination. Is this normal or is there some sort of medical condition?

Okaii...
I'm only 14, but back in June I noticed somewhat of a "bump" near my left breast. I didn't think anything of it because I just had a pretty big pimple there. I haven't told anybody about it, and I don't plan to unless I know that it could be something serious. There is still a bit of a "bump" but it tends to COME AND GO. It's really hard.. and hurts when I press on it. It's not directly on my breast, it's just kinda "beside it"
There is also a small "Black Spot" right on top of it. It feels a little "broken up" too. Like, I feel a bumpish sorta thing around the main one.

I just want to know if this is could possibly be breast cancer.

I ran out of celexa 2 days ago. My PCP does not want to fill my meds. I have been trying to find a psych doc for meds for months. No one is taking new patients or apt.s are more than 12 weeks out and they won't let me make an appointment. Insurance said they will try and find me an appointment but I have not heard back yet. I am feeling pretty lousy. I am a busy mom with two kids, 4 &6. What am I supposed to do? I can't get my meds and I am out! I don't have the option of tapering off. My PCP isn't calling me back and even if he decides to call in a script it will be 72 hours more. I have some old welbutrin 150sr. Can I take that????? I was already sliding into crisis before I ran out of meds. I don't know what to do. I talked to my insurance and my PCP but no help yet.

I can. It doesn't matter if I'm laying on my stomach, my back, or my side. I can count the heartbeats. I can also feel it if I'm sitting back against something, like a chair. And sometimes, I can faintly sense it when I'm just standing still. Is this normal? I'm 36 years old, and I'm VERY active. Not only do I workout a lot, but I perform very intense workouts... very strenuous. My average heart-rate is around 57-62bpm, and my blood pressure is always low. But, I just don't like the 'force' that my heart seems to beats at. One time I was laying in bed with an ex-girlfriend, and she even mentioned how 'hard' my heart beats. Could this be a sign of something bad??? I have no pain. No shortness of breath. No obvious symptoms of anything unusual besides a seemingly 'forceful' heartbeat.

My parents wont take met o the doctor. What can I do. Please I need some help. Better not be Cancer

Okay... here's the deal.

I'm 24 years old and have three pre-exisiting conditions.
1.) Hepatits C, diagnosed in 2000.
2.) Bipolar Disorder, diagnosed in 2005 (w/ two inpatient hospitalizations).
3.) Atrial Septal Aneryusm (Congential Heart Defect), Diagnosed in 2002.

Plus, I have a family history of heart attacks and cancer. (My parents died of each.)

I make in excess of $100,000, am self-employed and live in Texas.

I know my only option is Private Insurance, but nobody will cover me that I've looked into thus far.

I'm pretty sure it's going to be impossible to get coverage for myself, but being as I'm expecting a baby in December and have a six year old child, is there any way I could get somekind of coverage for them at least?

If so, how would I go about this? What steps need to be taken? Is there any chance I can get some kind of prescription coverage for just myself? (My meds are over $2k/month - no prev. coverage.)

Any help or insight is appreciated!!!

The doctor just told me I have a fatty liver. He thinks it is caused by alcohol. I only drink once a week and I usually drink one of the bigger bottles between 3 people or so. I've never seen this doctor before. I'm really overweight, but I've lost 31 pounds in 2 months. I'm continuing to lose weight also. I've been doing research on the internet and the number one cause for fatty liver disease is obesity... Do you really think it could be alcohol?? It would make more sense that it would be my weight..... I like to drink once a week with my friends... Do I really have to stop for good??? Thanks for all of your opinions!!

I've had tiny bumps on my nose for years and I'm not sure what they are. You wouldn't even notice them unless I was in a certain kind of light, or you were really close to my face. They're not red. They're not big. They don't itch, hurt, leak anything, nothing. They are just there. I wash my face daily and I use acne products. The products work on blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and whatever else, but not these.

What are they? How do I get rid of them?

Has anyone ever heard of Plantar's Warts going away spontaneously? I had a couple of small ones for a couple of years, and now they are going away without treatment of any kind. I didn't know this was possible.

I will explain the best I can. Last night I was talking with my husband, and then suddenly my head felt like it froze, like I was beside myself. I knew where I was, and I kept having this sensation that my head was moving itself. My husband was talking and didn't notice anything. I was able to tell him that something was wrong, but then the sensation became stronger and then stopped. Even though I was able to breathe, during the episode, I almost felt like I would pass out. I'm not sure what happened, but it's happened before but not often. I have told my doctor, and he says, that's weirdest symptom he's ever heard of and says it's probably, a panic attack. Is that what it could be? I want to know if it has anything to do with a stroke or seizure, I just want to make sure it's not serious.

This is a serious question, so, please don't answer, if you're going to write something stupid. Thanks

I had two seizures/vaso vagal responses? in the recent past only while having blood drawn and not eating that day. This morning while sitting, reading and thinking about being tired; I found myself waking up after I apparently hit my head on the wall. I've been waking up too early and going to bed late for the past 3-4 days. but I got 5 hours of sleep nightly. Anyway, i woke up in the same position (outside of my head against the wall) still holding the book. I did dream and didn't have an accident but was this a seizure? thanks!!
