So far she has not had it (she is 2 yrs old), but 2 other little girls have and they were pulled out of the day care as soon as they found it. Today is Monday, they got it last Wednesday & Thursday. Should I keep her home tomorrow just to be on the safe side?

I don't think it's diarrhea. It just keeps on coming out. He goes to the bathroom and cleans himself and by the time he is done cleaning himself, it is already coming out again and soiled his pants. Has anyone had this problem or with their child...please help...what can I do?
What can I do to help him besides talking to his doctor because I have already done that. Are there any medications or foods he can take for it? Or ANYTHING else please! Thank You!

i'm a 15 1/2 year old female who is about 5'5 2/3.... i've always been the tallest person in my class, ever since i was in kindergarten. everyone always thought i was going to be really tall - like 5'8/5'10. my father is 6'4 and my mother is 5'6-5'8 (i'm not sure). my father's father was 6'3 and his mother was 5'8. my mother's father was about 6'5 and her mother was about 5'1... this leads me to believe that i should be tall, right? i always have been, but i'm not anymore. i looked up my "genetic height POTENTIAL", based on my parents' heights, and i have the POTENTIAL to be 5'9. I looked up the calculator that uses my current age (15.75) and it says 5 feet 6.1 inches.. how can i be shorter than my mother, whose the shorter parent and MUCH shorter than my father.. WHEN I'VE BEEN TALL MY WHOLE LIFE. my mother said she grew an inch or two when she was around 18. do you think i'll grow anymore?? i would like to be at LEAST 5'6.5.. but would rather be around 5'8.

A while age I had an office appointment about a variety of serious medical problems. I am in a lot of pain everyday. I would like to use something like stem cells or the new nanotechnology or any other technology to restore me to mental and physical health. I recently was in two auto accidents as well as some heavy manual labor type jobs leaving me with some very unpleasant medical /psych problems. I have had nearly every test in the book I have two stress tests, a 2d echocardiogram, an EGD, an upper GI, a colonoscopy and some others with inconclusive results .A minor Heart attack was diagnosed though. I still feel like throwing up everyday, probably stress related I am having unexplained chest and abdominal pains from frequent throwing up as wells as being about 60 lbs overweight. I have had two hernias repaired Sometimes I feel like passing out I also have had about 2,000 dollars of dental treatments I am a white male I am 5'11" and currently weigh about 250 lbs. I was examined by my primary care physician a Dr of internal medicine and a gastroenterologist as well as receiving psychiatric attention .I am 43 years old I want to get restored to health from these mystery problems so I can go back to school and get my masters degree. And work at jobs at the level of someone with this level of education income . I WOULD LIKE YOUR ASSISTANCE IN OBTAINING THE STEM CELLS AND ADMINSTERING THEM IN A SAFE FASHION WHERE THEY WILL BENEFIT ME THE MOST.

Does it matter how much alcohol they drink or how much other liquid they drink afterwards? Any way to be sure they are clean without buying those pricey test kits? thanks

IDK ive been sick for over a month now, first I was scared I was pregnant because ive had flu symptoms and stuff but I'm not... and I'm still feeling REALLY weak. I am 18 yrs old, and I live with my mom, my dad has ALS so I dont feel like bugging her about it... but
I wake up feeling like I'm going to die every morning.
I get the WORST headaches EVERY day.
Im prone to migraines but me getting them everyday is uncommon.
My urine is foggy and smells different. IDK... weird that I notice but I do.
I cant concentrate at all... Its hard for me to drive or even walk sometimes because I feel confused and weak.
And Im always BURNING up ,even if its cold.

I dont know, Id say I had the flu but this has gone on for a while, pretty much every since I went to another state.

For a while I thought I had West Nile, becuase Ive been bitten 10000 of times down there... and its more common down there... but idk... its highly unlikely... IDK, is there anything wrong with me?

So I went to the Dr. & she noticed I have a rapid heart rate. She recommended I see a cardiologist, which I am. But I also had some bloodwork done. Everything turned out normal, but my Dr. said that my magnesium levels were on the low side (although still in normal range) & that I should take supplements to see if this could be contributing to my heart rate. What's kind of weird is that awhile back I had migraines & then panic attacks...which are also thought to be perhaps related to magnesium deficiency. Anyone had a similar experience? Or know anything about this whole topic?

Im just wondering whether having Flat feet (or feet with no arches) is deemed as a disability? I have had this disability all my life and I cant walk very far with it so I would like to know if I will be able to qualify for a disabled sticker or is that only for people in wheelchairs ect...? What can I do to help me cope with this problem?

I have been taking amoxicillin for a throat infection - I started taking them last Monday evening and they began to kick in around Wednesday - on Friday I developed really bad acid feelings coming up from my right side - I have suffered with acid before but it comes from the pit upwards not from my right side - this was really painful and even drinking water was making my insides burn, from Friday all weekend I could hardly eat anything and as well as the acid feelings I feel very full and bloated even though I have hardly eaten anything, I have tried Andrews salts and today Alka Seltzer to get rid of the feelings and apart from the acid getting milder I am still feeling so full - I was wondering if this could be a reaction to the medication and am thinking it caused a reaction on the lining of my stomach or something - I stopped taking them Friday night and havent taken any since just in case - has anyone else had reactions like this before ?

I've tired different beds and that did not help. It hurst most in the morning and feels better after 15 minutes of stretching. I don't want to take pills and I do not want surgery. I do not have pain going down the leg. I'm not over weight. I bicycle about 20 miles a week and am in good shape. The chiropractors said my disc near the L5 is just worn out and that it will hurt till I die. I'm only 40 years old and want to do another triathlon next year, but can't do much because of the back pain.
