I have pink eye. I went to the Dr yesterday and she said that I could go to work. However my coworkers don't want me to go in today. Are they being ridiculous? I feel they are. The Dr said as long as I wash my hands frequently and don't touch my eye I am not going to spread it. I work part time which means no benefits so I am essentially losing a days pay. They said they are comfortable with me returning tomorrow but in all honesty I'm just as 'infectious" today as I will be tomorrow. What are your thoughts opinions?

Thanks!

I have acute anxiety. It feels as though I cannot breathe at times, so I have to take more breathing, like my heart is coming out of my chest, or that I will die at any moment. I told a doctor about this and he is sending me to a heart specialist. But says he thinks it’s in my head because I have a history of acute anxiety and major depression. I am talking anxiety medicine for it but it doesn’t seem to help as much and makes me feel somewhat dazed. If it’s in my head like the doctor says why does it feel so life-threatening all the time? In the meanwhile what do I do so it doesn’t affect me? How do I manage it? It is so extreme… in some cases I was rushed to the emergency room by ambulance and immediately put on oxygen. In other cases I was evaluated by a caseworker and sent to a mental institution. Am I actually dying or is this a feeling that you get for having regular anxiety, acute anxiety or anxiety attacks?

My mother was diagnosed by our doctor that she has a cirrhosis. Is cirrhosis is curable or not? Actually, now my mother is taking the Essentiale capsule because that was the doctor precribed for her. I also bought a Livatone and Livatone plus by Dr. Cabot. Is Livatone is good for my mother or not?

I am seeing a specialist gastroenterologist soon, but I am really worried about some quite severe abdominal pains I am having. I am 27 years old. It started November last year, with a bad case of gastroenteritis, possibly food poisoning. While this was really acute, and involved sickness and diarrhoea it went after a few days, although I still had a slight ache in the illium area of the abdomen. It stayed with me at a low level until just before christmas, when I had severe abdominal pain. At no point during this time was I sick, and my stool was very solid. I went to a doctor who identified an abdominal mass, and sent me for an immediate ultrasound. The ultrasound picked up inflammation of the intestinal wall in the Illium area, and slight fatty deposits in my liver. Blood tests identified elevated ESR and CRP indicating inflammation.The pain had been at a low level since that time, until this week, when it has been severe, in the lower right & centre abdomen. Stool solid. Help!!

How common is this? What if they presented in infancy?

My middle daughter, whos almost three has chronic uncontrolled Myoclonic seizures that started in infancy. My youngest daughter, two months old had a burst of myoclonic seizures shortly after her vaccines.

Although they weren't that frequent in my middle daughter until about six months old. They started at the same time that my youngest daughters did.

I am praying that was an isolated case but we wont know until her EEG this month. Seizures run heavily in my family but I've never seen a sibling set where more then one child was affected.

My oldest child is seizure free.

My fiance has self diagnosed herself as being bipolar. Because i did not know what this completely was I told her that she was only trying to convince herself that she was. At most twice a week we get into an argument over something(NOT on Purpose) and her actions always start out one way and then end up another. For example is she starts out mad she will end up happy (but not a good happy), sad-mad, sad-rude etc you get the idea.
What i am trying to say is when I finally read about the condition I noticed some things about it that were related to the things she did and it scared me because the way things are now for us are stressful enough and for her to be diagnosed by a doctor would only make things worse. So just to sum this all up how do i help and prevent her from gaining and displaying anymore symptoms?

Also, Yes i know it is not good for me to keep her away from the diagnosis of a professional.

These past few days- 4 days, I've been having very white and thick discharge, and it was itchy for the first 2 days. After that, the itching stopped, but today- ..I know this sounds sick, but somehow- i needed to pee in the shower. And so like- idk it just went...and it burned like crazy, and i looked down and it was blood. The urine only lasted for a mere second. ...Anyways, I took a swab of the blood in my vagina onto my finger...and it wasn't just blood. There was white stuff in it, that didn't seem like discharge either- but I'm not too sure. Anyways, I'm a whole week and a half delayed on my period, but I get it literally every month. ...The whole week, I've thought it was a yeast infection; however, urinating blood is not a symptom of yeast infection. ...and I don't know if I'm period or not either... Does anyone have any ideas? Anything at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank u so much

Is there any other reason to have a gross (and I do mean alot) of blood in your urine other than infection or a kidney stone? And at what point do you need to be concerned.
