and is bothering me a lot since it affects my confidence to face people. He denied it was jaundice and is only "dirty sclera". He advised to get rid of eye irritants. But what I wanted is to get rid of the yellow tinged that's bothering me. anyone knows how? Medications, eye drops, any?

This happend to my father, when that happend I walked him back to his bedroom. I checked his blood sugar and it was at 316, I checked it a second time, it was 300. I assumed the reading accurate, so I gave him 7units of insulin. Is it normal to have the syptoms I described for having his blood sugar so high? Please let me know, thank you so much.

...have started browny green lumps on then.
Why are my knuckles crusting over like this?
I'm 15 years old.
My fists do get put through a hard time and my knuckles often get the skin ripped right off.
I also have a habit of cracking my knuckles, and yes and know I need to stop.

For the past 5 days, I've been stuffy & having large, bloody boogers in my nose. They're so big & so far up my nose that I have to dig far with my bare finger with a long fingernail. (Don’t mean to sound graphic) I can't breathe properly. My friend said she felt a swollen lymph node under my earlobe/behind my jaw. There's a swollen vein in my upper left nostril that's blocking my breathing, & I accidentally scrape the skin off my nose, trying to get the boogers out.

Also, is there a medical &/or proper term for the word "boogers"? It sounds quite like slang & informal.

I could not breathe sort of like asthma but i dont suffer from that. it ended up being something like an acute viral infection that cause my bronchus to close or something like that i was told. i was so sick i dont remember half of the stuff. i had high fever, according to doctors if i hadnt gone to the hospital i could of suffer some convulsions. so anyhow im better now just that i have fever still and i was wondering when i need to go to the hospital i sure dont want to have any convulsions

I come from a long history of CAD sufferers. I am 25, and just had a complete cardiac workup (echo, 24 holter, 3 ekgs, 3 blood tests in 3 days, and a week of telemetry) due to my hr dropping to 39 bpm on a event recorder. They found that my heart goes fast at times, but nothing to worry about right now.

However, for weeks, no months, I have been getting a slight sharp chest pain on the left side above my breast. Doctors dont know what it could be, and do not want to do an angiogram because everything else looks good. I have slight MVP with slight regurgitation.

Does anyone know what can cause like a stabbing chest pain?

Ok so I have been half way disgnosed with asthma (I'm still have to do all kinds of tests) caused by a mold issue. I'm 18 and have always been a really serious runner. I went running today and I think I might have had an attack. My doctor told me tell her if I had one. My question is, how do you know if you are having an asthma attack.

Read too many info about Hep and it doesn't say if you can get it by their spit, linens or hugging them. Any answers would be helpful. Even the mean remarks is welcomed.

I had a pacemaker implanted because my heart rate was irregular and in the low 30's I was experiencing chest pain, dizziness, etc. Two days ago I started experiencing the same symptoms, my blood pressure is way too high even with my med and I'm waiting on a call from my doctor, can a pacemaker malfunction this soon?

I live in Canada and have an appointment for a first consultation with a surgeon in mid January regarding my deviated septum and crooked nasal bone. The appointment was made in late July so the waiting time just for the consultation has been nearly 6 months.

1. Is it common to have another consultation before the operation? Is it actually expected?

2. What is the average waiting time between the first consultation and the actual operation? I know this is a difficult question to answer with 100% accuracy, but I figure there must be some kind of average.

Thanks in advance.
