okay, ive had stomach problems for the past 3 months.It's about 3 inches above my bellybutton,and about 1-2 inches below my breasts, right in the middle. I barely eat,feel like i'm going to throw up 24/7,i feel dizzy.I've had a 2 yeast infections,and a bladder infection,and ive thrown up a few times.Ive had 2 sonograms done to check my lungs, gall bladder,kidneys,and all that other stuff,and a urine test, and a blood test.Everything came back fine.They keep thinking i have heart burn, and have put me on two different heartburn medications, and an acid reflux medication, nothing has changed!!! I was talking to a co-worker, and everything i was describing, she had just a year prior. She had all the test done, and everything came back normal and fine, she had to go 3 hours away for someone to diagnose her with having "IDD".I dont know what the first D stands for, but it's "Intestinal____Disease, and no it's not Iodine, or IBS, its IDD, does anyone know what this is?

Only 10% people up to 90 years old can avoid cataract, how do they manage that? Can this disease be reversed? Will only people with the perfect vision avoid the disease?

I have had an extremely hard knot on the back of my heel for years. It is solid and has never given me any trouble. I have never had pain from it. I can take my fingers and it has a solid shape to it. I know that there is such a thing as a heel spur. Could that be what it is? It has a definite shape to it. It is about the size of a ball like we used to play jacks with. I have to wear shoes with the back out or a little big but only because of the size of it. I would like some helpful responses. I have received some really nasty responses in the past when I ask questions and all I want is information. Thanks again.

It has been going on for only four days, but I have been living with back pain for years (I am 24) and coping without a doc or generally complaining.
My left side hurts deeply, like nothing else I have ever felt.
I had a full blood panel a few months ago (just an annual checkup, no reason), and the only slightly abnormal things were SLIGHTLY elevated glucose and liver enzymes. Triglycerides were also more than slightly high. Monocytes were VERY high (I have psoriasis, so my doc and I attributed it to this)... I don't think any of this is related, but thought I would add just in case.

I have had this severe shoulder pain for the past 7 years on and off but now more frequently occurring. Lasts about 2-3 months then takes a 2-3 month break and reoccurs. I have no insurance but see a Dr when it gets bad (like now). He did an X-ray and nothing showed and wanted an MRI but to expensive. Cortisone shot but he isnt too certain which part of the shoulder is actually affected. Honestly the pain migrates around my shoulder seeming to affect different spots each time. He had me on pain meds before with an anti inflammatory which I took at night because I couldnt sleep with it either. I am concerned because last time I was there (a few months ago) He seemed like he didnt want to prescribe me them again. I dont know what else to do without a proper diagnosis and so so much pain. I am in an excelerated medical program which I cant even work for insurance...

what do you think my shoulder problem is?
How can I NOT look like I am some narcotic junkie when I need pills?

Could anyone who's been diagnosed with adult scoliosis share your treatment methods that have helped you, please.
I'm researching as best as I can on the net but it's always helpful to hear from people who have actually been through it.
Thanks to all in advance.. :)

I have a small white spot on my iris that seems to have developed quite suddenly; i only noticed it this morning. I'm 16 years old so i doubt it has anything to do with aging. It's not affecting my vision or causing pain. If anyone has any ideas about what it could be I'd appreciate it.

I have been having a month and a half battle with problems...but today the doctor finally thinks they have found the problem...at first the doctor though I was having anxiety...but I went to another doctor that sent me for blood work and a EKG...the results came back and I had an abnormally slow heart rate (that freaked me out because those results came in before the blood work)...but that was explained because the blood work came back as hypothyroid....so I went for another test and they came back normal! The one doctor thought it was just sub-clinical hypothyroid...but I went to another doctor that is betting its viral thyroiditis and its causing the levels to fluctuate. So my question is...when this final blood test comes back and it shoes I have thyroiditis is there any treatment? Or what is to be done?

you visit and find he has overdosed, knowing that this is what he wants, do you sit and hold his hand till he goes to eternal rest, or call the ambulance, and have him revived only to let him die naturally. what would you do? serious answers only PLEASE.

I am a diabetic and very nervous about this disease. my back has been itching a lot lately, so I make a doctor visit and he set up a nerve conducter test for me. I am mor nervous now because In the last five years of being a recoving addict, every year something new happens. If it was possible, I would never have used drugs. This can never be a good decision. Please tell me about this test.
