My husband had surgery to remove his prostate last April, because of prostate cancer. He was lucky, it didn't spread. He came home early today complaining of his side hurting and a stomache, and being freezing. My sister took him to the doctor, but I AM SCARED. What could be wrong?????? Or am i just overeacting?????

I've been sick with mono and my doctor said I might have something wrong with my gallbladder but I have no pain. Have any of you had to have your gallbladder removed and never had pain?

This is the second occurence of this. I drank heavily on Saturday (6-8 beers), drank 20 oz of water afterwards. Sunday had a slight hangover, Monday - extreme nausea and vertigo. Last time this happened it lasted for a week. The key factor is the alcohol - I also take effexor. I am really not sure why or where this is coming from. I have always been able to drink and not have any issues. Anyone know?

Ok, I drank 2 cups of home brewed coffee today. I don't feel sick ( nauseated) but the bottom of my stomach, close to my pelvic bone it aching now. My guess is I drank too much coffee too fast, but a second opinion never hurts. Please don't say, go to the doctor. I know if the pain persists I should see a doctor, but I should atleast give the caffeine time to wear off first. Could the coffee be making that area of my stomach sore? And, if so.... is there a way to deal with it and keep my coffee?

There is a pain in the ankle joint and on the top side of the feet. While walking or standing. After long walk the pain continues while sitting and in sleeping position also. Pain killers or foot massage helps a little, but since about 2 years the pain is there more or less. When there is pain there is also tightness felt at the bottom center part of the feet Two years back there has been an operation for removing the uterus and ovaries. Doctor assumes it to be dryness of muscles which makes the muscles less elastic. This causes pain. One week medication was prescribed which did not help much and some injections in the feet are suggested which I have avoided as they are steroids. What is the medical term for such a disease? Is there any other solution and are there any tests by which the diagnosis can be ascertained.

I'm supposed to write an essay on a controversial subject in medicine and it has to involve a drug (may or may not be the main point of the essay). Does anyone have any suggestion? Nothing on Vioxx, HIV vaccination (although those are very good subjects) Thank you!

This happened when I was teaching English in China.

I was watching movies at a friend's apartment and stayed out quite late. I started to have a nagging pain in my jaw, but just figured it was fatigue and ignored it.

The next moring I woke up to find that one side of my face had swollen up to an immense size.

I ran a very high fever and vaguely remember a doctor and a nurse apparently trying to smother me with a blanket.

I never received any real diagnosis, and it's unlikely that it was mumps since I am innoculated against that. Anyone have any ideas- especially people who are in or have been to the Far East?

hi, just yesterday i discovered that my stomach would twitch almost all the time. it feels as though i'm being punched in the stomach with a punctuated breath when i exhale. also, my throat burns every now and then, and i get pain near my right and left collarbone. i might also add that i suffer from severe social anxiety, but i feel like these symptoms indicate something more serious. possibly GERD? other? thank you.

My husband is getting out of a 6 month drug rehab program on Friday. I want to know if it is ok to allow him to drink alcohol or not. Alcohol was never a problem foe him, cocaine was his only addiction. I do not drink very often. I will maybe have 1 or 2 drinks every couple of months. I just wanted to know if I should ban all alcohol from our home? I just need some guidance on this one. Serious, helpful answers please.

When I exercise, and often when I'm not excersising, my mouth is REALLY dry, like I have cotton balls in it and the feeling gets worse when I excersise. I haven't always had this problem, until about 3 weeks ago when I started doing my aerobic program. Is a really dry mouth a sign of dehydration?

I just had an endoscopy and they saw that I have a major ulcer at the opening of my stomach and on top of my sphincter. It is very painful sometimes. I am supposed to be on a bland diet, but I can't get down most food.
What is a good diet to get rid of it?
