Over the past month and a half, I've noticed that i have been getting sore throats and earaches on and off, so i finally went to the doctor yesterday. He said my lymph nodes were swollen, the insides of my ears were swollen and fluid-filled, and the inside of my nose is red. He said its a virus, because the rapid strep test came up negative. I just find it weird that if its a little virus that its lasted over a month...is that normal. could it be mono? should i be worried? what happens if my ears dont drain? Could it be tonsil cancer?

I have been suffering from tendinitis and tennis elbow of the forearms and elbows for over 3 years off and on, but mostly on. Everything I do to heal it seems to be only a temporary fix and it always returns, always...I've done physical therapy, cortisone injections, surgery, rest from work, you name it. I even paid some shmuck $35.00 online for information on how to heal it but it was only illustrations of the exercises that I already do at therapy. My elbows also hurt INSIDE the joint. I am totally beside myself and need help. I have asked for an MRI to hopefully reveal the problem but have gotten denied. I am in the process of trying to find a doctor that will approve one, but doesn anyone know what this is? I am willing to do anything to permanently cure this condition. I believe that there is a solution for everything and that it only needs to be found. Someone out there must know what is wrong with me or have somewhat of an idea so that I can research it further. Help!

I did the therapy thing, I did the surgery thing, I'm STILL doing the therapy thing. I need answers. What could be causing my elbows to hurt inside the joint? Please anything you can offer will be helpful so that I can research it. Thanks.

I have had a sharp pain in the center of my stomach, and it has gone on for like three weeks now, off and on. It happens especially before and after I eat, but it will not go away quickly, I have to lay down or sit. Also, my gallbladder is out, but when I get that sharp center pain it radiates to my lower shoulder blade and my lower back hurts sometimes too.Please advise, my doctor gave me these new acid pills called Zuregis or something like that but they do not seem to be helping.I am getting tired of having this pain and not be able to do anything to help it.I have also felt nausea too.Please suggest or advice. Thank You!
Note--I am 23 years old and have had my gallbladder removed this same year.

After taking the much controversial acne drug "accutane" I saw stunning results in the clearness of my skin, but a noticeable problem with the way I was swllowing food. It gradually became more hard to keep food down and I was becoming very concerned. After getting an endoscopy done the doctor told me that my esophogus did not need stretching and nothing was wrong from what he saw. He prescribed me a drug called "protonix" which I take once every morning. He told me he thinks im not creating enough acid. Well I have been taking it for about two weeks and I have not seen any improvement at all. Its been months since I remember eating a meal or let alone any type of food or liquid (even water seems to get stuck) without having to gag myself so I dont choke. Im a 16 year old male and I weigh about 125 pounds. I know this isnt healthy for me and I am becoming very concerned.
I think my mom is going to try to get me in with a gastronomist. Im open to anything at this point. Please help!

When I walk, I feel off balance, and I have this weird "weak" feeling in my brain. Like, I've lost some muscle control in my body. I can't describe it. Has anyone experienced this, and if so, how long has it lasted?

Hello, I am a 17 year old guy and I have been dealing with acid reflux for around 14 years. The main symptom I always dealt with was regurgitation of my food from the stomach into my mouth. I taken medications over the years such as prevacid, nexium, pepcid, zantac (which I take now), etc. Zantac helps a little bit, but the food still wants to come up. The latest problem I have encountered was heartburn (which I never had) and acid. I was wondering if anyone had problems that are similiar to mine or any good advice. Thanks for the support.

I am 19 years old. I have done competition dance choreography for the last 10 years. However, I took a year off this past year. So it would have been 11 years. I have gained some weight since I haven't been dancing and I have lost all discipline on how to eat right. I know that these things can cause a factor in nausea at times but I have only been nauseated for 2 weeks. Also, I have daily occurring headaches and I suffer from BAD allergies.

My question is.....is this from lack of exercise or something more severe?

I am on the Nuvaring for birth control to regulate my periods although I am not sexually active and I have never had sex.

I am also a hypochondriac and I suffer from a phobia of HIV.

Like I said, I am a virgin. I do not use IV drugs, and my parents are also healthy. So should I worry about these symptoms being caused by HIV?? I don't recall anyone pricking me with a contaminated needle but I have the worst phobia of HIV ever. Could someone please help?

For over a year, I haven't been feeling like myself: I eat healthy (meat, fish, fruits, veggies) and excercise a lot. But when I wake up, I feel horrible: Usually with headache or faint nausea, my eyes feel heavy and burning and overall I just want to crawl back to sleep. It is getting worse: I am getting up later and later and don't feel good until late in the afternoon. Then I need to catch up with work and activities and ride on my late energy rush until wee hours at night, which makes it worse.

I am worried because now, I feel well only a few hours out of the day: My mind feels cloudy and although I still manage to function, I have to constantly kick myself. From the overall symptoms, I seem to suffer from adrenal fatigue. I'm in a difficult financial situation and I really can't afford pills or missing work. Anyone knows of a specific food or activity that directly improves adrenal glands? Again, I eat very well but maybe there is a specific nutrient I should be getting.

First-sry for my spelling... I tend to pass out but the last time I did it was different than the rest. It started the same-dizzy, room spun, blackout, and then fell. But when I woke up (15 seconds later) I was shaking and drooling a little and there was the loudest buzzing noise in my ears for the longest time. Did I passout or did I have a sezier?
