General Health Care - October 2006

Hi, I've been having gassiness problems for over a year now.
I've never counted, but it occurs more than 3 times every 5 minutes.
I've tried Beano, lactase, gasx, and acidophilus, with little to no results. After eating the acidophilus for 3 days, I've ended up with more gas the next day. I eat a little bit of wheat and sugar, and thats it. The pelvic area of my body is always aching, and during the night I have a strange feeling: I have the feeling I am passing gas, when I am not. My body makes weird noises during the night. I get the feeling near the rectum area, but no gas passes. I usually have less gas later in the day, but from I wake up to another couple hours, I have more than 3 passes per 5 minutes. What are all the possibilites? I've been to a clinic, and I've been referred to a GI specialist, but I didn't go (I dont like taking x-rays and have tests unless absolutely necessary)

Some times it is very hard and sudden and causes me to fall down, other times it just makes me lose my balance. It can happen once a day or several times a day, or it may not happen for weeks at a time. It mostly happens when I move my head toi quickly or even just my eyes. I have very severe headaches, starting at the base of my neck on the right side and goes around to my eyes. Has anybody else had this?

I don't look too fat, but its just that the weight....I could never figure out why it was so high! My friends say that it is muscle, but I think they are just being good friends. I know its kinda hard to make a decision on that info, but didn't really want to provide a photo. Thanks for any replies!

I have read some answers given about why cold sores form and understand it is viral and possibly brought on by stress and diet and temperatures.... My question is this: If they are viral will the fluid excreted from a cold make you sick?

My ear hurts when I listen to music or anything that is loud. There is a static noise when I hear loud sounds. For example, when I'm driving with the windows down and the street noise with the wind that is blowing in my car starts to make my ear hurt and I the sounds gets distorted/statically (also happens when I listen to music and it's not even loud). Is there a way to fix this? I know I should go see a specialist but currently I have no money to fix this problem and see the doctor. So please someone out there give me some advice! THANK YOU!

I'm 17 year olds, but am in dire need of all the vitamins Centrum (from A to Zinc) has to offer.However, the label says adults only, keep away from children. Can I, as a 17 year old teen take it as well? Would there be any negative affects?

I requested my Dr. mail me my medical records. The office sent me a consent form to sign & are asking me to pay $50.00 for handling copying and mailing fees. I believe per the new HIPAA guidelines that these records are mine. Why should I pay a fee?

This is the one prescribed for me whenever I have severe colds. I can not take any other one such as Tylenol since my doctor says they interfere with other medications i take.
