I got this urinary tract infection and I have seen a doctor. He gave me some antibiotics. This is my 2nd day of taking the antibiotic but it still doesn't make any difference. Is it normal? How long is it to be cured? I just feel like i cannot stand on it any longer as i got many activities to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Yes i realize this is an odd question but, does anyone know what symptoms you would get if you ate a piece of chicken that came from an infected source , assuming it was not cooked properly.
Thanks.. UK...

I don't feel SO sick that I have to go to the doctor, but maybe I should. I've had a cold just over a week now but my throat still really hurts. Also, I'm very stuffy. I don't have any white spots on my tonsils so I'm pretty sure it's not strep. I think it might be a sinus infection, but why would my throat hurt so much as well?
thank you! :)

ok, please help me, has any one had these symptoms before? because im so tired of suffering. I have the symptoms of a fever sometimes. I get hot flashe, and sometimes im cold, in the morning my face swells to the point where it hurts, and my lip as well, its aweful. i get major migranes for hours at a time, to the poin where i cry. my nose is constantly stuffed, and i get to caughing where as my throught feels like someone is scaraping it with a razor. im constantly suffering from loss of breath. I hvae been to 6 different doctors, each taking blood samples, but in the end no one knows the problem! i swear if i have another needle in me ill die. one doctor suspects Lupus (if thats how you spell it). It copies other symptoms of viruses. But no one knows for sure. If you have suffered through this, and know the cure and the cause, PLEASE SHARE IT WITH ME...my friend thinks it was cause through and infection traveling through the air, which i cought through my eyes...?? can this happen?

There's a really bad strain of a stomach virus going around right now. So far our family has been lucky, but I just found out that I am pregnant and I have a son who is one. I want to know the best ways to prevent getting the virus. I know washing the hands and steering clear of sick people is the obvious, but any other ideas on how to prevent it?

I was exposed to a friend with shingles about one day before the blisters developed and I am worried that I may catch chicken pox because though I am vaccinated i never had it before. This exposure happened 5 days back and I am absolutely fine now. will i catch chicken pox ? will i see any symptoms after about 5-10 days ? I have also been taking care of the patient however after having known that he is infected with shingles, I have been very cautious.

Hello, I am in College and was around coughing people for a few hours today. Sometimes they were sitting next to me, and sometimes that were behind me. I am feeling well, but do you think I can get sick from them? I have been washing my hands, and I am also taking Airborne right now. My Spring Break is coming up in 4 days, and I really do not want to get sick!
