It's only when I first start eating. After a few minutes it gets better. Yesterday I really thought I was going to pass out about halfway through my meal. Today I drank Slim Fast for breakfast and ate some nuts about mid morning. For lunch I had two Lean Pockets and about halfway through the first Lean Pocket I began to feel light headed again. I didn't come as close to passing out as I did yesterday but I still felt very faint. Not dizzy, just faint feeling. This is new, it just started yesterday.

My Father is very sick....I am so sad. He has many ailments with no available cures. I so wish it was me instead of him. I have cried off and on for over 14 hours...don't believe I can cry anymore...I had to leave his hosipital bed last night, I was so upset and did not want him to know. Life is so unfair....I only hope I die first...for if I don't....and something happens to my Father...I will join him. There is no way I can go on w/o the person I have known all my life...I love him so much. Nothing in this life is fair and I wish I had never been born..then I would not be hurting. I think back on times I may have gotten too angry with him for not taking his meds properly and I feel so badly about stuff like that....or when he would not eat...or would not wanna keep his dr. appt...etc...."Life after birth...is hell on this Earth!"....I sooo hope I go to sleep tonight and never awaken.

I have a cut on my finger that won't stop bleeding. It's not bleeding badly, but it's been oozing for about a day now. I have a history of this as well. For instance, I had a dental procedure recently and the bleeding didn't stop completely until after a week. I know most of the common ways to stop bleeding: apply pressure, hold limbs above the heart, etc. But they haven't helped. Any ideas? I'm also concerned about what would happen if I got a major cut.

The doctor said her liver was that of a heavy drinker!! She only has the odd glass of wine?
Could this be because she took 'Black Cohosh', which is a chinese remedy for the menopause?

Our son silas has been diagnosed so far with a gross motor delay and expressive receptive language disorder, hypotonic, developmental delays, sensory problems, and unexplained fatigue, and recently we took him to a holistic doctor cause we were tired of all the guessing and he did a bunch of different things and found he has a moderate yeast overgrowth, it showed up in his poop, stool, and blood, so he is on a bunch of different things for that, and we have to give him shots in his bum every three days to make up for the defecienties of some of the vitamins he has, and then we were at the gastro doc, and twice now his tyrosine level was elevated in his blood so they were looking for tyrosinemia type 1, but the liver ultrasound looked good, but the one blood test came back off, his blood di dnot clot as fast at it should have, so he said he was going to call chop-childrens hospital of philly, cause he said it could be the beginign of tyrosinemia or nothing at all.wondering what this is.

Im going to the doctor this Friday, I have a trail of blisters developing from the spine on the back of my neck all around the right side of my torso. Feels like a sunburn. My dad says that it looks like shingles but it's rare in younger people...usually middle aged and up are supposed to get them.... I am 22 years old.

Also I live in the house that my dad used to live in and when he lived here that's when he got shingles...so is it contagious? Or maybe a virus in my home that is causing this outbreak?

I have food poisoning, am running a fever, am extremely weak and exhausted, haven't been able to hold any food or liquids down today, and I already show signs of dehydration.

I think I am going to become hypokalemic pretty soon but I can't drink or eat any fruit without losing it. Any idea how to get me back at normal levels again?

My cousin fell skating down a hill and is in the hospital. he bled from his head, and has blood in his brain. doctors have performed a CAT scan, and surgery might be needed. He feels very sleepy and says he doesn't want to die. how serious is this? and can there be any consequences from all this? can brain surgery result in brain disfunctions? what can blood in the brain do?

My doctor just told me that i have heterochromia(having a different eye color in each eye) my rigth eye is blue, and my left eye is green. I never noticed, i dont know why; but lately my friends noticed that my eyes are different. So i went to see doctor, and he told me; I never noticed because its not that rare as other cases in which people have one blue eye and the other one is brown. I just wanted to know if its bad to have heterochromia? or if it will damage me in some kind of way in the future?

Ox-LDL maybe more direct hit to health. How come they can provide the measured cholesterols and LDL but not this data. Low LDL doesnt mean low oxidation of LDL and vice versa. What are tools the lab need to measure ox-LDL?

I'm really proud that I've given 30 donations inspite if the fact I have had 3 kids (your not allowed to give while pregnant or for a year after)
I plan to keep donating until I'm too old to do so.

My son had cancer (Non Hodgkins )when he was four and required several transfusions to get him through his treatment.

I was so grateful that there was blood available for him when he needed it, and would like to thank all doners and encourage more people to do it.
