Hi-

My husband enjoys giving me oral when I am menstruating. Is consuming menstrual blood toxic? How about regular blood (He once licked up the blood from a cut of my arm.)? I am disease-free.

Thanks.

I have a mass on my thyroid that has been there for seven months. On the ultrasound scan it showed to measure 4.10x3.45x2.2cm. I would like to know if that is considered large?
I know that thyroid nodules are common but I am only 22 years old and I found this lump on my neck seven months ago. It has not gotten any smaller and we are now undergoing testing to see what is causing it. The intial blood tests show that my thyroid is functioning normally and we have ruled out any thyroid disfunction. No one has told me yet if the nodule is considered large. Any information would be helpful.

I have written up my first 38 years of my life with this rare disease in about 8 pages. my doctors and family and friends say I should write a book. I don’t no the first thing about writing a book and where I should get help from. that is what brought me here. if any authors or publisher what to help get this off the ground I would appreciate it. I would be the first person to write about this disease and to help parents and children get threw life the right way. My parents didn’t understand how bad this disease was so either the looked the other way or they just didn’t think anything was wrong until it was too late. I like to try and help the parents get threw life and help the children understand there is life with this disease and you can live life to the fullest as long as you get help early and have parents that care enough.

i have either a cold or the flu. I've almost recovered fully. I've been blowing my nose a lot and now the skin on my nose looks red and some parts look like it's peeling off. Also the skin on and around my lips looks chapped. Anyway I can remove this? i have a family gathering tomorrow and someone's going to crank out the camera and I don't want a photo of myself with a red nose.

First off, I have massive anxiety towards this disease...and was literally prescribed xanax to stop thinking about all of the symptoms. My problem, is that I immediantly think the worst and jump to conclusions very quickly.

I was sick for about 3 weeks, and was prescribed Cefdiner for the last week to try to calm this fear. My temperature never jumped above 99.2, and is currently 98.3. I had a sore throat for a while, and mainly what seemed to be a sinus infection. Cleared the antibiotic on monday, but now on my the side of my right thigh has appeared a very small reddish/purplelish rash that doesnt completely fade with the test (no pain). I dont have a stiff neck (have tried all 3 tests), headache, fever or no dislike of bright lights. My neck was sorta stiff for about a week, but it would always appear in certain areas, and vanish within hours probably due to stress.

Is this something I should be worried about, and contact the EMT or wait until morning to speak to a doctor?

Hi, I'm 15 yrs. old and during the past couple of months, I've had some pretty severe allergic reactions. At first, I thought it was just wheat. But then as I looked at the signs and symptoms of Celiac disease, I realized that I might have that. I do have a fairly short stature compared to my brothers and parents and I in the past, I have had at least 3 other signs (which I won't mention). Are there any ways to cope with this or do I really have to avoid gluten products for the rest of my life? I've had Luna bars and know that they don't have any wheat, but are there any other types of gluten-free snacks and cereals? Also, is there any way to know how much damage I already have? Thanks much! :)
