How much sweating would you have to do at night to be worried about night sweats? I just got diagnosed with a infection from my doctor. I'm not sweating profusely and it's only my underarms and feet that are sweating. My hands are kinda clammy, thats it though. I do think I am a Hypochondriac. I for some reason keep thinking I have Leukemia but my parents,aunt(a nurse) and doctor all laughed at me. I started taking my antibiotics a day and half ago and nothing seems improved yet. I have one swollen lymph node on the right side of my neck(not both). My spleen felt good until I read about it being a syndrome, now I think my mind is making it have a pain every now and again. I also am worried cause I don't have a fever. I haven't lost weight or anything either. I haven't been sick lately at all. I don't have any lumps under my arms. I have had chills,nausea, and on and off headache. But those have been scarce since I started my medicine.
Sorry for rambling
Should I be worried?

I was fired after suffering from a medical condition, from which resolved and I had been cleared to return from my physician. My employers physician never saw me, nor had he ever talked to my physician. I'm a little confused and concerned with how he claims to be able to make a decision regarding someones life without ever seeing or speaking to them.

I am just getting over a cold, and my ear is in a great deal of pain. It feels as if there is water stuck in it, and I was wondering whether I should lay on that side so the fluid may drain. Is it safe to use a heating pad on low to loosen it up? I took decongestant medicine already.

I don't often ask questions, in fact, I've never asked a question. But I need help! On February 3, I was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre. I've had it since then, and been in a wheel-chair and using a walker. I was really lucky, and didn't have to go on a ventilator at any time. I'm out of hospital now, but am still doing physical therapy, aquatic therapy, etc. I need help, sympathy, anything!

I've noticed this over the last few months - very strange.

There are no other apparent symptoms, just a throbbing or sometimes dull ache in my right big toe.

Once i cut sugary foods from my diet (my fave being toffee popcorn) the discomfort goes after 2 or 3 days.

Anyone ever experience this?

long story but I'll tell it shortly:
I've got per total 2 piercings in my ears(in both) and I want to make another one in one ear. I convinced my mom, but when I was ready to go, she said that I can make leucemia(cooool...O.o)
I just can't find an answer on medical sites. help?

I wonder if someone sais I can't ;;)

I am 24 years old. I've been dealing with multiple symptoms most of my life. I think I know what disease(s) I have, but so many diseases have the same symptoms. Here is my history:

Age 3: Earaches

9-24: Every few years, I've had to adjust my sleeping pillow. At age 9, I had to sleep on 2 pillows to stop nausea. About age 17, I needed 3. Now, I literally sleep sitting up.

17-24: About 3 months before my 18th birthday, nausea starting hitting me hard. It got worse everday for 3 weeks. Then, once a week. Then, every few months. Now, it gets worse everday, but I can control it quite well since I'm used to it.

17: I stopped drinking soda because it hurts my stomach. Even a sip will burn it for 30 minutes.

22-24: I have unstoppable migraines that are only cut in half by migraine medicine.

22-24 I'm sure Ihave P.A.D. and R.L.S. I'm also constantly tired and lightheaded even though I get 9-12 hours sleep per day.

23-24: I have to eat light or I may vomit

Because she is unable to walk and feed herself. The DR decided to withold food, medicine, she is diabetic and had a stroke. and water.. WE friends asked her, are you thirsty, she said,.. "Yes, I am awful thirsty"
we ask, are you comfortable.. she says
I am UNCOMFORTABLE!!"
WE asked are you in pain? She says
yes.. she has brain activity...
I understand she is dying... But the dr.

I have been feeling badly lately. Often very tired. Feet/ankles sometimes swell. B/P slightly elevated. 3 wks ago I got dizzy and felt tight chest. I ended up over night in the ER. Passed all the cardiac tests (blood, ekg, x-ray, stress) but was so tired. It happened again this weekend, I woke up at 4.30 feeling bad. My blood pressure (based on mom's machine) was 177/100. So off to ER again. Nothing.
I have no insurance so all of this plus follow ups I've been told to have with various docs is stressing me even more!
I'm a 50 yo female, no gallbladder (that went last year), and no health issues except overweight.
What I should ask my doc to check?

Here is what the lab results marked out of range:
Glucose 114 (h)
Protein 5.4 (L)
chol/HDL ratio 3.745 (L)
chol 17
trig 50
hdl 47
ldl 119
WBC 10.9 (H)
troponin-t <0.010
Segmented neutrophils 77.7 (h)
Lymphocytes 17.1 (L)
seg-band# 8.5 (h)
Heart rate 83
BP 135/73 (right arm/lying)
artierial press 94

I donated blood back in November and I found out that I had O+ blood. Ever since I could donate again the blood bank has been calling me every 2 weeks begging me to donate again. It's not that I don't want to donate I don't have time and I just started taking dance lessons so I can't avoid not training. Plus the blood bank is a 30 mile drive from where I live. How do I reason with the blood bank? This weekend the lady on the phone really started to get desparate. She said a 9 year old with Sickle Cell Anemia relaly needs my blood.

I'm 19yrs. old and my doctor just put me on 5mg BuSpar for social anxiety/severe panic attacks(like the dizzy almost fainting kind).I told my doctor that I wanted something I could take right when they happen or when I start to feel stressed because I did not want something that I would have to depend on everyday and would have to be taking for along time to feel the effects. I had mentioned Valium since I know these worked tremendosly for me and I wasn't addicted to them at all since I would only take one about a week.But she suggested trying to BuSpar first.She also said that I could just take the BuSpar when I'm feeling stressed or when the panic attacks start. And that I didn't have to take them everyday all the time just only when needed.What I'm wondering or you could say worrying about is when I researched BuSpar all I found were bad reviews and everyone said that this medication takes at least a week or so to even start doing anything.So any info on this would help. Thanks! :-)
