I'm a 24 y old female. I have had constant chest pain for about 5 days, and went to the ER on the 5th day when it increased and challenged me to breath. I had an EKG, a chest xray, and blood tests that came back fine. I was given vicodin for pain, but it didn't help. I followed up with my doctor two days later who suggested this ws a muscularskeletal injury, and prescribed muscle relaxers. I have been taking them along with motrin, and I'm not too sure that it's helping. The pain is stil there, but rather than being constant it comes and goes throughout the day. It has been overv a week since the pain started. Should I be worried? IF this is muscular, how long will it take to get better? I have had sore muscles previously and the soreness only lasted bout 23 days. What should I do? Please help.

i can barely hear out of my ear any more and there is a constant ringing. I want to know what is wrong with me. The doctor doesn't seem to know what they are talking about. It came on real sudden and i had a bad ear ache. The ache stayed a while, but it is now gone and i can't hear very well at all.

I am a younger person, and I was talking to my friend on an IM, and I was really mad about something like I was gonna hurt someone, and she said something that got my mind off of it for a second, and then I knew I was mad about something, and I couldn't remember it, and I am not a old person, I am a teen...

On November 26, 1999, I had a stroke and a a cerebral hemmorhedge. I'm smart and funny. However, it takes me a little longer to lern and have a slight vision impairment. I'm tired of taking term positions in my area and having to take tests THEN an interview. In some job interviews I tell them about my brain injury, and I don't get a phone call after, when I don't tell them, they accuse my of hiding the truth. I'm not sure what to do. This is a fairly small town (about 19,000) and am discouraged and frustrated. And yes, tired.
Why can't I be hired for me and not my disability? Where should I go to talk about this? And figure out my life...?

A co-worker and good friend of my husband's fell down a flight of stairs last night and died of a broken neck. How does a broken neck kill somebody? What happens? Does the person die slowly or quickly? Why did it kill him?

Ok, I don't mean to be gross but my toenail fell off last night and I have no idea why. I do not have a fungus, I didn't stub it or drop anything on it, it didn't turn black or anything and it didn't hurt. I just took my sock off and it was just hanging there by a little piece of skin.
I do run, and have heard of this happening to runners, but I don't run THAT much (about 6 miles a week) and have only read that when they fall off on runners they turn black first and mine didn't. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
