I have been coughing for about 4 weeks and I am so congested, I have been so week, my ears ache like there is no tomorrow, my doctor has told me it is an upper resp infection, I am thinking it is something else. I think I have either broken my ribs from coughing or bruised them really bad, I have taken just about every antibiotic out there, please help me.

Ok this may be gross but for as long as I can remember I've pooped pebbles. Sometimes I go once every 3 days or sometimes everyday. I drink lots of water & my doctor had me try fiber supplements & colon softner. All it does is make my peebles softer. I also have chronic bloating. Then every once in a while I will get diarrhea & when I do I pass out from it. I have the worst cramping & I have to grip something to help with the pain. My dr. says I pass out because I have low blood pressure. Sometimes I worry that there may be something wrong with me. Any advise?

Well, my friend and I had plans tonight to go to the mall, out to eat, and then have a sleepover. My throat felt a little tickly earlier, but now feels fine, I don't really feel sick, but my temperature is slightly elevated at about 99 degrees. My right throat gland is also VERY SLIGHTLY swollen. We are not planning on sharing food, drink, or even beds so do you think it would still be fine for us to go ahead with our plans??

Thanks
=D

I don't know if it's just a cold or not, but I think I might have something worse. When I sneeze, the snot (ew) is yellowish, which means infection. Also, I've been taking Benadryl because my mom thinks I just have a cold but it's been getting worse. I think I get a fever every so often and I always have a headache. Also, my cough isn't loose, and it hurts when I cough. Do you know what I might have, if it's a cold or not?

I think I might have a virus. Is it normal for when you have a virus, for when you swallow your saliva, it makes you sick and you puke. Or if you a get a severe chill. Is that a virus?

I kissed a girl that i didn't know well on april 2007. After we were done kissing i felt like i caught something a virus or something because my right eye i had a sharp pain also tinling feeling around my lips. After a week i had white patches on my throat went to dr. Dr said i have bad throat. He gave me antibotics i got better after a another week i begin to have shoulder aches and pain when i pee a burning pain. Went to dr. got medcine for burning pee. it got better after taking the medicine, But as of today dec i still have shoulder aches,when ever i move my arms around i feel cracking popping noise. but i don't have any pain. Red spots back of my throat. Light headache sometimes also tinling feeling all over the body sometimes that last only 2-4 seconds. Asked the unknown girl if she has any diease. She said no. But i am still scared because i don't feel like my self. What kind of other dieases can you catch if it is not a std. Because i felt it like i caught something.

I used to be able to eat chocolate, then in college I remember that I would have a midnight munchy and get a hersheys bar with almonds... about 5 years ago I noticed that if I had even a little piece of chocolate I could literally take my fingers and wipe oil from that little spot between my lower lip and my chin. Then, about 1 1.2 yrs ago I noticed that if I had a piece of chocolate I would get the oily skin and then I would break out.
Then, the past 9 months if I even eat a piece of chocolate the size of a quarter I get hives all over my arms.

Is this what you'd call a progressive allergy? Is there a name for this?

Thanks to the coughing and throat thing I can't even stand to be near smoke, so I don't want another cigaret, EVER. Kind of amazing after 30 years.
