Other - Diseases - January 2007

Ok - about a week and a half ago I noticed I had some pain in my abdomen. It feels like it is in my back and sometimes does go straight across the small of my back. It is always on the left side. It does come and go and can be quit sharp and knock the wind out of me. I am also having serious gas pain and sometimes feel bloated. My mom who is an RN said to take a laxative (I have never ever taken one) so I did and the pain is not due to constipation because it is still here. I usually do not go to the doctors as I am very healthy but I am now worried to death! I will be making a Doc apt but would like to know if any one out there may have any idea what this may be. It is def not in my back muscles and I can feel my stomach bubbling at times. It feels like a sharp stitch. Thanks!

In the last couple of years, I have experienced times (abo 3 times/yr) when I have been walking and suddenly feel so faint (nauseated, disoriented, ears buzzing) that if I don't immediately sit down, I black out for a very short while... I was wondering if anyone had any similar experiences and what this could possibly be the result of. I have been to the doctors and am not diabetic, not taking any meds and eat healthily.... serious answers please.

I have a chronic neck or throat pain. It seems the pain is particularly in the adams' apple part (when in men) or it is the / in the bone or neckbone? It is affecting the right side making it a little bit tight and painful. It looks like my neck is "pinned / grasped / pushed" or the feeling is like when you put your four fingers in your frontal neck and pin/push it or simply grasp your neck. It's a strange feeling for i can't describe or hardly explain it. It is not so painful anyway for it is tolerable that i can do anything and i am fed up with this. I really want to get rid off it.

I've been to 2 ENT doctors but both found nothing specific condition/ disease. They just prescribed some meds. but still has no effect.

What's this and any remedies, cure, & or treatment please? I no longer want to see a doctor again if possibl. Please help??? Please???

My son (who is 8 years old)has had a runny nose for about 2 days. This morning he said his throat was a little sore. The school has had a lot of sick kids lately so I figure he has caught something. Should I take him to the doctor today even though he doesn't seem to be too bad yet or do I wait till Monday and see if it gets worse? I think it's probably just a little cold but there have been different kinds of ilness going around here like strep throat and viral infections. Our doctors office is only open Monday through Friday.

I have never heard of it, but I know several people who are getting this. (who I am steering clear of) The symptoms are pounding headaches, burning eyeballs/swollen eyes and aching hips. Weirdest symptoms!!! Have you any ideas or know what this is?

I have always been pale and now the anemia is making me even paler. I need to know if there's a certain diet I need to follow or if there are certain things that I could do to bring my face back to life.

I found this in a forum:
"This makes sense.. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals...not cold water...maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!
Nothing to lose, everything to gain...
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.
Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal."
(Thanks to the author of this tip)

my mom is going today to have an operation for a perianal abscess. they tried to drain it, but couldnt get all the way to it since its about 5 inches in diameter. they also said it could be cured by antibiotics and prescribed some to her. by the time she had gotten home from getting the medicine the dr called back to say they would have to do surgery instead. i am wondering why such a quick change in decision. is there potential for something else there, even if he didnt say so? what can be expected in this operation? anybody with personal experience would be greatly appreciated. i know the background info as i have googled it and read many medical articles. just looking for some more insight and possible reassurance.
thanks so much!

Before reading, make sure you note that I'm going to turn 17 in less than 5 months.

Last night I had a dream. A dream that I badly had to pee, but I couldn't find a bathroom. I finally found a bathroom, but I started relieving myself on the floor before I could reach the toilet. I woke up to find myself sleeping in a puddle of urine.

Now, I don't have a history of wetting the bed, but I do have a history of waking up and feeling like the Mississippi River is going to shoot out of me. Therefore I know my body produces most of its urine during the night, and it pisses me off....literally....

This is the first time I've actually peed during the night though. Haven't done that in like 8 years. I woke up and drank a cup of coffee. So I peed again this morning already. Now I almost feel like I have to pee again.

Something is wrong here....

lets sum up what we know:

1) it is not a communicable disease, that is its not air borne or water etc... (this includes mosquito)

2) it can infect through an infected syringe, that means its in the blood

NOW:

if it is in the blood, why doesn't a mosquito bite transfer the disease (like malaria),

That means some chemical in a mosquito kills the virus rite?
