hey my girlfriend and her mother have an extremely weird disease and i want to help so bad but the doctors don't even know what it is. i wish someone could help them so bad but i guess they won't be able to find out what's wrong with them until her mother dies. I believe there is a problem with their immune system. they are rarely hungry, they get an upset stomach all the time and sometimes her mother shakes and has bad headaches and sometimes seizures. someone please help.

Also, are there any proven natural remedies to control or rid of this condition? Any harm in using those tar shampoos over a long period of time? I am hesistant to do anything which will cause hair loss and am scared if I don't that the seborrheic dermatitis will itself cause hair loss. I also have it on face now :( Any sufferers know how to control this?

A Doctor has a Colonostopy sceduled for Nov. 27th, 2007. Should I be concerned? I am only 30, but cancer runs in my family. I also have a Lump about 3 inches from my colon which they are worried about. They already did a Stool Sample and they said there was a form of infection. But they aren't sure what kind. They told me also that my white blood cell count was low and my Liver enzymes were very high. What does this all mean?

Is it common to get a sore on the side of your tongue & on your upper gums with herpangina? That's where my son has them. We took him to emergency today & we were both diagnosed with herpangina. I just have one white spot near my tonsils. I keep worrying that maybe they misdiagnosed my son because they didn't take any tests & from what I've been reading on the net it's not common to have them on your gums.

Seriously. It's called the 'Stomach Virus' or '24 Hour Flu' or '24 Hour Virus' and it always lasts much longer than a day. The effects linger for at least two to three more days afterwards.

Why is it called the '24 Hour' anything? Who came up with that name?

The only good thing I can say about it is that is a quick way to lose ten pounds if you want to lose weight.

I'd love to hear from people who have air purifiers and are happy with their performance. I'm especially interested in non-HEPA types. Also, has anyone tried Eden Pure brand?

I have been coughing for 2 weeks now. On Tuesday (today is Sat) I went to the doctor and they told me I have bronchitis and gave me a 5 day antibiotic (Zithromax) and an inhaler (albuterol) Now Im done with the antibiotic and am still coughing quite a bit. I still get short of breath from moving around too fast, and my chest feels tight, but I am not in pain. What confuses me though is that sometimes it's like a wheezy kind of cough and sometimes it's a very congested-like cough where I will cough up phlegm (sorry for the gross detail) and sometimes I will go a few hours without coughing at all. What is going on? Should I go back to the doctor? I am not asthmatic, I am not a smoker,I am only 21 and have never really experienced anything like this before. Any advice/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
