k im i teen and my tounge is tied. its not severe and i can speak perfectly fine but i cannot roll my r's or stick my tounge out. if i get this fixed, will i be able to resume speaking normally immidiatly? as i said i am a teen and i DONT want to end up with a speech deficiancy or lisp even if it only lasts a month. i no that i would had to train myself to roll my r's (most likely) but other than that, would i be able to continue to talk normal??? i also have the high hopes of becomeing a vocalist or singer so my speech is very important. as i said i can speak normal now but am just curious.

I went in and did the EKG as part of my annual check up. they did it like 4 times because of the abnormal reading. then the doc comes in and tells me that I may have an irregular heart rhythm. Next week he'll give me a machine to wear for 24 hours to verify.

I have never been sick before. and I felt good unitl the doc gave me this news. Ive been kinda scared. whatt causes an irregular heart beat? will I be OK? I ran a mile a few weeks ago with no problems

Could the very attractive medical assistant leaning on and over me during the test throw off my heart beat? or doctor anxiety in general?

if it matters IM in my twenties

thanks

For the past 3 or 4 months I've been extremely tired, I get to the point where I'm nearly crying in school because I'm so tired. My work has been very poor this year as a result, I'm normally an honors student and get all A's, well I can definitely say I'm not getting all A's this year. I get really cold all the time, even when people around me say it's hot. Muscle/bone aches often, especially around the end of the day. Swollen lymph nodes most of the time. I went to the doctor about 2 1/2 months ago and he said I had an infection and gave me medicine which did nothing for me even though I took it as prescribed until it was gone. I lost my appetite for a month and didn't eat, lost weight, but my parents noticed and now I'm eating for them so I'm gaining back the weight, but I'm still not hungry so when I eat my stomach hurts. I don't really know what's going on because I know my body so well and this is just confusing me. I get dizzy randomly, or extremely weak. I'm not sure if this is

The past few months my blood sugar problems seem to be getting worse. If I don't eat every 2-3 hours, I get dizzy, sweaty, a bad headache, anxious, blurry vision, and feel like I can't think straight. After I eat, I feel better, but it only lasts for about 1-2 hours and then the whole cycle starts all over again. It is getting in the way of my day to day life.

I've had this problem for most of my life, but it seems to be getting worse over the past few months (I'm 26). My appetite varies from day to day. Hungry all the time one day and not hungry at all the next. I'm not losing any weight or having an increase in thirst. Both of my (overweight) parents are type 2 diabetics, but I am not your "classic" type 2 diabetic (I'm only 102 lbs). I couldn't be a type 1 diabetic at 26 right. Also, I have heard of hypoglycima, but only in relation to being diabetic.

What do you think? Do I need to go to a doctor, or is this not really a big deal?

THANK YOU!

my school has a swimming unit and now that i have been swimming for a week i have a rash all over my body. it's really bad on my stomach, sides of stomach, and my legs. i have some itchy spots on my arms as well. i'm not sure if the pool has bromine or chlorine in it, but whatever it is, it's giving me red dots that itch like crazy. also, the school is freaking out over the MRSA staph disease so they might have gone over-board with the chemicals. i've never had this kind of reaction to pools before, but i did use to have eczema on the back of my legs.

i got a dog 2 years ago but after about a year my grandma started getting very itchy red rashes on her body like doc says its eczema or psorisis but since my family hates dogs especially my mom she thinks its he dog allergy when i dont think it is because she doesnt sneeze, cough, or red eyed, or ever has any problems with her nose.. its just the skin what do you think?
dog allergy or not?

Do you just go in and talk to the Doctor? Get a prescription for the prep pills or liquid? Does he have to do an exam? If so, please explain what is done.

Hello thank you for reading my question and trying to help me.

My question is...Let's say I had diabetes but did not know. Let's say I started to have diabetes starting 2 months ago and I just don't have a clue. If I dont get blood work because I think I am fine.

Basically what will happen to you if you have diabetes and do not know about them? Like will I have a heart attack or pass out then I go to doctor they take blood work and find out? Or what happens to you if you have diabetes and did not know you have them?

Thank you very much

Okay, so the MRSA infection is around my school and I just now got this thing on the side of my face that looks like a spider bite. I don't know but I think it might be MRSA! How can I know for sure?
