I am having really bad back pain in my middle back. I am going to a chiropractor and cant get back in there till next thursday. I was wondering if it is better to put ice or heat on my back to help the pain go away. Ive heard several different things and just want to see what is the best way to go about it. Anything would be helpful

I was able to eat pretty much anything I wanted, then about 2 years ago I started getting heartburn every time I drank orange juice or ate anything with tomatoes in it. Even if I avoided the foods that flared it up, I still ended up nauseous. Now, pretty much every time I eat I get a sick, dull pain in my upper abdomen just below and slightly to the left of my breastbone, in between my ribs. If I bend over I nearly vomit, and have actually vomited before because of it. It's not that I'm eating too much, I eat regular portoin sizes and rarely eat seconds. I ate lasagna tonight and felt like I was going to faint, it hurt so bad. It was dull pain, but it felt kind of like someone was putting out a cigar in my stomach. I don't have any blood in my vomit or anywhere else, and I still have somewhat of an appetite, although I'm getting to the point that I don't want to eat at all just to avoid the nausea. I don't want to have an ulcer, but I'm afraid that's what it is. What do you think?

Hi, i've been very ill the past weel and a half, and i haven't been able to eat anything since Sunday, everything tastes disgusting and i find it difficult to swallow. I went to the doctors yesterday and she said i had a chest infection, but i havent bin coughing that much really. She prescribed me antibiotics. Today i'm extremely dizzy and my fingers feel tingly with pins and needles, and i still cant eat, i'm starting to get worried. Is this normal and how much longer without food can i go without starting to cause a problem? if anyone can help or just reassure me i'd be very grateful, thanks x

My doctor prescribed seroquel to help me get to sleep at night. All of the research I've done on the drug indicates that it's used to treat depression and other disorders. I've been taking one pill a night for the last three nights and it's not helping me sleep. The doctor said to give it time. . .

Triple bypass Surgery was 2 years ago and the doctors (family and heart) don't seem to take it seriously that my breastbone is separating. When turning torso and/or wearing restrictive clothing (bra) feels like something inside is pinching and occasionally I can feel the bones move. Can get finger inside the 1/2 inch separation between bones. Top 2 inches of bone seems to be closely attached. There is a knot at top of bone that doctor has said is probably calcification over the end of one wire. Bottom few inches is where the separation is taking place. Would like to know if others have had this problem, if it is a normal occurance, and/or what others with problem have done about it. I'm too young to live with this pain for the rest of my life and it is hard to distinquish between chest pain and heart pain.

I'm at work and was playing around with my two buddies. I was wearing an oversized coat, so one of them tied the arms in front of me. Then the other friend found a zip tie and tied my legs together. This was all fun and games, we were laughing so hard. I was wriggling my way to the door to get some scissors, and one friend decided to help me out. He was going to pick me up. Well he went to get me and drape me over his shoulder- I wasnt ready and I freaked out, I went head first into the corner of the wall, and then hit it again on the concrete floor. Im not bleeding..and the side of my body hurts- as well as my head- but its not agonizing pain.
Should I go to a doctor?
