Diseases & Conditions - 29 October 2007

The reason I ask is because I really never knew what they were before. I asked my boyfriend if he ever gets "white things" from his throat, if they ever come into his mouth. (like coughing them up) he said no. it's a little weird onlyl because he said he didn't get them, and now, he gets them. Any ideas?

This started out just under my left nipple, but i have found that it has gone to my right too. Im 13 years old, if that affects anything. I thought either puberty or im just growing...but it is scaring me slightly with the thoughts of cancer lol. The left used to be huge, but it has gone down a bit. The right is now GIANT, and seems to still be growing. The left has pretty much stayed the same for a few weeks. Ive had this thing for like a month or two.

hi, just yesterday i discovered that my stomach would twitch almost all the time. it feels as though i'm being punched in the stomach with a punctuated breath when i exhale. also, my throat burns every now and then, and i get pain near my right and left collarbone. i might also add that i suffer from severe social anxiety, but i feel like these symptoms indicate something more serious. possibly GERD? other? thank you.

For over a year my nose intermittently completely stops up and remains so and then for no reason unstops for a while before stopping up again whether I take meds or not. I have tried otc meds and a few prescription meds. Nothing works to alleviate the symptoms. It's worse when I lie down to sleep. When I get up from sleeping, my nose starts dripping. I am taking meds for high blood pressure and have been told not to take a decongestant. When I sat down to type this, it was stopped up ...and now.. suddenly it is completely unstopped. I have no doubt it will be completely stopped up again before long. I've been to the doctor without getting any results. HELP! If you can ..... Thanks.

I get nose bleeds frequently about this time of year because of the dry weather. I also tend to get congested with a runny nose. I've read that saline nasal spray will moisturize. Does this mean it will help prevent nosebleeds due to dry weather? My humidifier and Vaseline help, but I hate getting caught with an annoying nosebleed that slips through here and there.

My husband is getting out of a 6 month drug rehab program on Friday. I want to know if it is ok to allow him to drink alcohol or not. Alcohol was never a problem foe him, cocaine was his only addiction. I do not drink very often. I will maybe have 1 or 2 drinks every couple of months. I just wanted to know if I should ban all alcohol from our home? I just need some guidance on this one. Serious, helpful answers please.

When I exercise, and often when I'm not excersising, my mouth is REALLY dry, like I have cotton balls in it and the feeling gets worse when I excersise. I haven't always had this problem, until about 3 weeks ago when I started doing my aerobic program. Is a really dry mouth a sign of dehydration?

Is it possible that having an eating disorder and not getting enough nutrients (even if i am just recovering from one) suggests that you are at more risk for diabetes?

I got told i had athsma from my doctors without them caring about anything else. Some symptoms I am having are -

1. Breathlessness.
2. Increased hunger.
3. head which feels like air is being pumped into it, prevents me from sleeping much.
3. Sugar can bring it on/ help symptoms.
4. I have noticed when I am at college from 7am - 5pm I only ever need the toilet twice. Once I'm home it's 4 times in the space of 5 hours.
5. Feel weak.
6. Increased tiredness.
7. Pain in my left-side of chest on the bone bit.

There are more, but these ones happen often. Should I go back to the doctors and explain my inhaler doesnt work, makes me feel worse, and wont help these symptoms, or should I just keep quiet?
