My entire family has diarrhea and they keep vomiting. Can a four day old cake cause a stomach flu? I also have the same symptoms but I have the stomach flu because I am a germaphobe.

About 3 months ago I broke a thermomiter in my bathroom sink. I dont think I got all the mercury out ( I called poison control and they said just clean up what you can, open the windows and shut the door and that its nothing to worry about). I threw out the thermometer in my trash outside and cleaned up what mercury i could find. I keept the door shut and window open for 24 hours and dident use the bathroom much for about a week.

But the odd thing is: I have anxiety disorder and get a lot of odd symptoms, recently I have had symptoms similar to that of mercury poisoning that im pretty sure are related to anxiety (Chills, tingling, ETC.). I had 2 sets of blood tests done and a urine test done (Not because of the mercury, but because of something else) about 2 weeks ago.

Could it be possible that I have dangerous levels of mercury in me? Or would have the tests picked it up?

When I found my Glass container, from 2 months ago. Needless to say, the food had become partially soupy...

I started cleaning it out with water and soap. When afterwards, I realized I wasn't wearing my nice yellow gloves. Is there any chance I could catch a disease through my hands from the fungusy stuff inside his lunch containers?

I had a Calcaneonavicular coalition removed twice, once almost four years ago and then a different doctor went back in last October to remove more of it. After that I am still in pain. Since the last surgery I have been on Vicoden whenever the pain is unbearable, tried inserts, had a cortisone shot injected into the surgery spot, and now am wearing an AFO. The only difference the AFO is making is now my calf doesn’t hurt. But with it I still have that pain on the outside and heel of my foot. And now it includes the top part of my ankle and I have swelling on the inside of my foot and up my ankle. It seems like all that this doctor cares about is that I have started arthritis in where the space where the bone used to be and said that is where the pain is coming from. Does that explain the swelling on the other side thou? And what about the pain on the top of my ankle? How do you tell him you don't care if its surgery again, you just want to be able to walk without pain? Any ideas?

My 10-year old started having blank spells since she stopped having febrile seizures 3 years ago. Her EEG results was normal. The neurosurgeon said there was nothing wrong with her reflexes. She is quite intelligent and it is sad that she is being teased by her classmates.

Is it possible to be bullimic and anorexic? For example, someone starves themselves (anorexia) and then whatever they do eat they throw it up? I'm sure that would lead to complications and death very quickly but have you ever heard of such a case?

I know that swollen lymph nodes mean that your body is fighting an infection of some kind. But, when the only symptom is the lymph nodes in my throat area and/or jaw line (either side) hurt when I swallow, what does that mean? I tried to look it up. But, I haven't had much luck. I had this before a LONG time ago (age 19) and being on antibiotics for a year didn't help. So they took my tonsils out. They have been dormint for 11 years. Now it's doing the same thing. It will go away for a few days and will return....yadda yadda yadda.

Is losing keys a common occurrence?

How does a person cure short term memory loss?. It seems like it could adversely effect person's chances of success if these types of things happen frequently.
