Or diabitees type 2. Or amemia. Or something else. I must have something. I used to be the most productive person... and then 5 years ago I started never doing anything again with my life.... because I was too tired, weak, dizzy and depressed everyday. I have a lot of problems. The doc that I had since I was little never really checks me out and tells me I am fine. But I never feel fine. I'm 21 now, male. I want to go to south america in 2 weeks for like a year because i need a vacation. should i go back to my doc one last time to tell him to check for multiple sclerosis? or will those proceedings cut into my planned vacation? i had a blood test 1 year ago and they said i didnt have anemia. but i still have all the syntoms. i have something bad and its bothering me and im suffering and nobodies doing anything. what do i do?

Hi. I'm a 21 year old male. A month ago I started having stress-related problems with swallowing due to my thyroid gland... and a lot of "butterflies" in my stomach... my doctor made me a standard blood and urine test and she said it was fine, that it wasn't anything serious. but 3 days ago i started having problems again, i have a headache (first it was on the left and now it's on the right side of the head... it doesn't hurt too much, more of a burn behind my eye, in my ear, neck and teeth), i'm nervous all the time, and since this morning i feel very tired and weak... maybe it's because i left the window open and the cold wind blew on my right side, but i'm constantly worried about having serious diseases... could this be just stress/cold related or is it something serious like brain cancer or something?? i still don't have seizures, or vomiting or something like that, but i'm worried it would start...?

For the past year my brother has been having severe episodes every other week or so with severe head-aches and vomiting. He goes every other week w/o eating and it's really bad for him. his headache is so bad during that week that if you talk to him he rolls on the floor in pain. We've been to every doctor in our area and we don't know what to do. So, if anyone has any ideas at all, maybe a doctor out there or someone who has any idea what to do, reply- please.

For about 1 week I have had on and off lower stomach pain on the right side. Recently in the past two days it has become almost constant. The pain is very dull and annoying and at times can really hurt. Also in the past 1 or 2 days the pain has moved to my lower left side oo, although it is not constant. Just last night I was doubled up after a sudden severe pain in my lower left side. This only lasted about 40 seconds.
* The pain on the right side is near the appendix( I HAVE had mine out)
* The pain sometimes moves up the right side and can be anywhere alond the right abdomen up untill about the ribs.
* I have pain after eating around the area in between my ribs.
* It hurts to push in on right side.
* 3 bloody stools in bout 2 and a half weeks.
* Pain when emptying bowels ( Lower right side)
* I only empty bowels pretty much every 4 days - there is no strain when doing this and it comes easily apart from the lower right side pain - NOT constipated
* also lost appetite

Additional Details

4 minutes ago
* booked in for colonoscopy in 2 weeks
* Female Teenager
* this is NOT period problems

Has anyone been through this or does anyone know what my symptoms mean?
Thanks heaps and only sensible answers please!!

I didn't have health insurance until now--am going to the doctor next week.

For the last six months, I've had difficulty urinating with frequent urination. I've also been a lot more thirsty than I'm used to being.

I'm always tired, and I'm gaining weight (far too much for how much I eat/exercise). My face looks bloated. Also, my feet have no sensation.

Can you tell me what I should have my doctore look into?

My Mom is 74 & did not seem to have memory loss til after she was prescribed Lipitor. Now I'm on generic Zocor. If you take a Statin Drug, how high was your cholestrol when your Doc prescribed it? Thanks for any answers!!! also, how long does it usually take for statin drugs to help lower cholestrol? & what effect can I expect---if I should suddently stop taking the statin drugs; would I need to gradually taper off them? If I came off suddently -can it cause my cholestrol level to increase?

My brother in law has just suffered a minor stroke and he is only 33 years old. How likely is it that this will happen again? and will any more be more severe?
He is over weight, so i think that this is a big factor.
Any advice would be great!

For about a month I have been having abdominal pains.
They come and go all over the stomach.
*I pretty much always have a bad pain on the right side ( where appendix is) I have had mine out
* The pain has recently come on to the left side too
* Pains up and down the right side of abdomen that come and go
* The pain near appendix is at its worst just before I empty bowels and after
* There has been blood in my stool three times
* I barely have to empty bowels. I mainly only empty them every four days because I dont need to go ( I dont have to strain/ push when I go/ it is all very easy except for pain near appendix
* Pain on inner top right thigh (not all the time)
* most of the aches in stomach are dull
* It hurts to push in on certain areas
*no appetite - after 1 bite i am full

I have been to 3 doctors and they are all baffled. One has ordered a colonoscopy but he doesn't think it will achieve anything.
Has any1 been through this?? Or know what my symptoms represent??

I am a 36 yo white female suffering from recurrent brushite stones for the past 5 years. I have done numerous 24 hour catches, full blood work-ups examining chemical makeups in my body. I drink tons of water with fresh, organic lemon and still produce the stones. I have just recently started a low oxalate diet regime as well. Does anyone out there produce this type of stone? If so, do you have any prevention tips?

HI ..I'm 23 years old. I inherited Polycystic Kidney Disease ..was diagnosed at age 14. A year later the disease spread to my ovaries. Up until I turned 21, the government has helped me.. I had medical benefits...however, I lost them when I turned 21. I have applied numerous times but I am always denied. Once, while I was unemployeed, they denied me bacause they said you needed some income. Then, I got a job making minimum wage...applied again and was denied because they said I was making TOO much money. I pay rent and have bills just like everyone else so I have to work, of course. It's hard to find a job where benefits are offered for these reasons:
I'm currently attended a community college so it's been hard to find a job that offers benefits that willing to work around my school schedule. Also, sometimes it's hard for me to hold onto jobs because I end up having health problems and having to take considerable amounts off...I am having alot of health problems and I am very scared
