My daughter in law is and maybe my grandaughter. She had to go to the emergency room two weeks ago because she dislocated a ligament while playing. I was holding her hand tonight while she pulled up off of the floor and her arm popped. She now says it hurts really bad. I think that they are taking her to the doctor. Does this happen in children who are double jointed?

well, I feel like everybody around me is so immature. School is Just annoying me with the kids there, It would be a very serious topic, like the seal hunt, or Somebody dieing, and then some people would say something childish. im only 12, but Everything and everybody just gets on my nerves. I just want to be left alone. All my friends ask if Im ok, because i dont talk much at lunch and stuff, and i dont really know how to answer....am I ok? is this normal for a grade 6 to feel? My father says that I've gone through a lot, and now having severe headaches for the past 2 years (that are just getting worse and new bad Symptoms are forming) like Arm/Leg sensations, Dissyness(like i'd turn around and then everything would spin), I just feel bored and angry at everybdoy, like nobody understands seriousness of war, and other things. My friends tell me to "chill out" but im...almost worried about me. Seeing food sometimes makes me sick, like, my stomach says noooo. Whats goign on? will i be ok?

Ok, I'm going to have a wisdom tooth cut out of my head, and I have sleep apnea.
Which means, every minute or so, my throat closes, and after a minute or so, my brain says "hey idiot, you're suffocating" and I gasp and get a breath of air.
All this happens without me waking up. I have a CPAP machine, but I can't use that while someone's operating in my mouth.

So if I'm put under anesthesia, won't that mean that my brain will be too out of it to wake me up? If this happens, my heart will stop, because I won't be breathing. Do they put a tube down my windpipe to keep it open?
I'm serious, how does this work?
Is this possibly the explanation for people who die during routine surgeries for no apparent reason?
I'm very afraid here, and I keep hearing "oh, I'm sure it will be fine" from people, but nobody can tell me WHY it should be fine.

I recently visited my ageing folks house, on entering I was struck by the smell of flatulence and urine. How can I determine if it is their old cats that are responsible for some of it, or the old folks? And who for what?

Hello all, I have seen an ear nose and throat doctor about pressure behind my eyes and sometimes nose. At times my ears pop when I go up buildings and such. I was given medicine for a sinus infection a week ago, but it has not helped as much as I had hoped. At times when I play sports like tennis I feel pressure in my eyes, they blink, but after a while it goes away. At times I get a little dizzy also. I was checked for serious problems but I am okay in that area. I think I may have some kind of sinus condition, but I have no mucas or stuffy nose. Is this related to a sinus condition? I am so confused about this, I've never had this before and its lasted for months now. Does smoking weed have anything to do with this? It's from time to time, and I've stoped and still have problems. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I have been sneezing all day, getting chilled, my nose has been either running or stopped up since I woke up this morning. I feel weak as well, but it isn't a full-blown cold (yet) Is there anything I can do to ward it off? If not, then what can I do to make it go away faster? Lots of Vitamin C, I have been drinking a lot of juices. Anything else? Thanks in advance.

Approximately a month ago my son had two seziures with in 48 hours, the first one had visable signs of seizure activity & memory loss of the event. The 2nd one he had no visible seizure activity, but did have the after effects. We went to the ER on both times, have have blood tests done to rule out Lyme disease andHypoglycemia. He had a normal CT scan. Normal Sleep deprived and regular EEG. He had a MRI done that shows several lesions on his brain, which lead us to having a spinal tap done.

None of the specialists are giving us straight answers, one says it seems he has MS, another says he "probably has epilepsy". Our Family Dr definitely has reservations about the epilepsy, as she saw the 2nd episode for herself. What would you do? Where do we go from here? Need more information to give me some ideas, please feel free to email me.
