I am not diabetic nor have any other disease. I am 26 year old male.
It is very frequent when the stomach is empty and less when i do some physical work.
Two years back, I went to a urologist. He told me i have renal tuberculosis as per the test
of AFB. So i was given treatment for TB. It improved my situation till i was given heavy dose for two months but again the problem became as usual when lesser dose started after two months. All other tests do not give any insight into the problem.
I need help. Thanks

I was playing football over the weekend and i guess my shoe didnt fit me so my toes were kinda squashed inside as i was running. afterwards i saw my whole big toe bruised. its not the skin thats bruised, its the layer under my toe nail. the color is blackish purple and kind of hurts a little but i still can walk. Should i go see a doctor or will it cure by itself? im hoping i dont have to cut my whole toe nail off :(

It's diameter is only about the size of a quarter, but it's still a nice sized knot in the lower of my back. It doesn't normally hurt, but it does get sore to the touch, probably because since I have discovered it, I haven't left it alone. What could this be?

Unlike my other questions, this is serious. Before you read my story, I want to say that I’ve had a concussion before(during summer program, tripped on fence wiring that didn’t make me fall, but go forward real fast into the ground head first, got up and told my friends I was fine because strangely I didn’t really feel any pain, felt), the doctors said it wasn’t severe(no bleeding or anything) after doing what I believe was a CT scan(I was in 4th grade), but I felt EXTREMELY nauseous and dizzy at the time. In a time period 2-3 weeks later after that incident, I hit my head 2 times maybe, but it was really nothing. I’ve felt fine in my head since then! It’s been 5-6 years.

Also keep in mine when I use the word ‘better’, I really mean less than ok, minor improvement, etc.

For the past month or so I've been really clumsy, occassional lightheadedness (due to lack of sleep), weak (endurance just isn't there), and blurred vision (my lazy eye keeps going out and I have little to no night vision), and creepy crawling feeling all over my body (like there's insects on me, but nothing is there) Also, just this past week I've been having right shoulder pain...like a dull ache and I've been having a hard time holding my bladder. Any ideas on what this could be? I know, I know....I should go to the doctor.

Say you have a man or woman who was born with a disibility such as burn with no arms or legs does the government cover financially for that person if they can't afford to pay some one to come in and take care of them, such as a nurses aid, personal support worker, etc... If not what is that person to do??
Just wondering...

My Doctor gave me a rigid neck brace to wear to help with a herniated disc in my neck, I am suppose to wear it until I go back to the Doctor in 3 weeks. He said I really needed to completely rest my neck and give the nerves that are irritated a chance to heal. I think it may be helping but it is hard to tell. Does this treatment sound right ? I am suppose to start physical therapy next week.

My dad is in a rock band, and he said that while he was playing, he had an extreme headache like never before, and now he's burning up a bit.

I was wondering what could possibly be wrong with him? Do you think it's from stress?

Sometimes, I will get a sharp pain, or not so sharp, right above the crotch area but below the stomach. I am chubby, and the last time I felt these pains were after eating at a restaraunt. Is it eating too much? Or is it something much worse?

I have been on every pain killer you could think of and now my doctor has me on methadone which I did not want to be on and for 5 months it has been working until about a week ago and when I went to him I told him I did not want to be on them any more, And I tried the fentinal patch which is stronger then moriphine and it is not working after 2 weeks still NOT working so I will have to go back on the methadone, but I have heard so many bad things about this drug it scares me, What else is out there that will help?.... and for the record I have had 3 doctors tell me they will not touch by neck it is too risky of a surgery and they will not even do the epideral shots again because it is too risky I have Degenerative disc disease and cervical disc disease, and scoliosis, Please can anyone help me? Any suggestions for my appointment this friday?
