My friend was at his brother's home and he suffered a slight stroke, so he stayed at the hospital for 7 days. He was only 21 years old. About 11 months later, he suffered a massive stroke and was totally paralyzed for another 5 months, and succumbed to pneumonia. No evidence of strokes was in his family, so that seems odd.

I have seen all my family members (grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles) come down with Shingles over the years and in all cases its been very debilitating and painful. My mother and grandmother had it on their faces. Is there a vaccine for this??? I do not want to get this thing!!

I have moved from (relatively) cold Canada to hot and tropical South East China, and now my hands have gone from being cold and purple, to feeling like they're hot and tingly. They're actually quite painful. I run them under cold water, and put them in the freezer for very short periods of time.
I thought moving to a warmer climate was supposed to help!
My Reynaud's was diagnosed by a dermatologist in 2005.

Yesterday I tripped while running down a hill and naturally out of reflexes my hands went down to reduce my impact. Well unluckily my left hand started to bleed it is a small wound (maybe 2 cm in diameter). I did not do anything to it to sterilize it and today i am worried that it might be infected i have heard bad things about infections. There is slight discoloration of my skin but that is right on the spot where the wound is. Also there is some yellowish whitish stuff coming out on top of the wound i do not know if this pus.

Please let me know what effects an infected wound can have on someone.

Thanks.

About 2 years ago I dated a guy who entered me through my anus and it hurt so much, but he was extremely selfish, so he never cared if I pleaded him to stop. Since that relationship I haven't dated any guys at all, and have no desire to. I'm not even attracted to guys. That was a mistake I made, but anyway, back to the subject. Since than I'd notice little bits of bright red blood on my tissue paper. I always thought my anus was trying to heal after the abusive relationship. I went to a doctor and she just said I have a cut there. That was 6 months ago. Recently I've started to notice more blood. And in fact, there is blood now in the toilet, on the poop and a lot more on the tissue papers. I donno what to do. The anus is itching like crazy, and I feel it'll be another waste of money to go see a doctor. What should I do?

I have a kidney infection and I am on Cipro for the antibiotics. I haven't had a period in 8 weeks now and I am NOT pregnant according to ultrasound, blood tests, and pg tests. I went to the ER today again for the second time about this and they said to continue taking the Cipro since my urine and blood tests all look good. I am now having shakes and chills, however, no fever or high blood pressure according to the doctors earlier. Why is my period so damn late and why am I still very ill after 5 days of antibiotics and a clean test??

I just turned 18 years old and saw a pediatric endo two years ago. I have always had short stature throughout life but part was blamed on my bone age being behind. I was continuously monitored and saw different doctors. I since moved away from my old pediatric endocrinologist who told me to come back in a year. Its now two years and i was wondering if I should go to a ped endo or a regular endo. Wouldn't a pediatric endo have more expearience with short stature? Problem is, its really hard to get an appointment with pediatric endocrinologist and cant get one until November. Opinions please!

There was a piece of graphite lead from a mechanical pencil hidden in the carpet at my house. I put my foot on it, and it must have been turned vertically because it punctured the bottom of my foot. It was a very sharp piece, and that is what is was because after i pulled it out i tested it and i could write with it and easily broke it in half. I put some peroxide on the entry spot (my stepdad told me to do this, he was the only other one home at the time). Do I need to take any further precautions other that keeping the entry site covered until it completely heals over? I dont know if you can get tetanus from graphite that wasnt exposed to rainwater, or from any graphite at all for that matter. At any rate, my last tetanus shot was exactly 5 years ago.

Ok I have had liver function test results from my Doctor, they showed an elevated liver enzyme level. I have been taking paracetamol for the past few days due to having a very bad cold, could this be the cause. I was also told I have high levels of calcium, whilst these results are elevated they are not dangerously high.
I am just trying to get an idea as to what is causing this. I can rule out alcohol as I don't drink.
I would be grateful for any advice Thanks.
Mark
