Hello,

Earlier today I ate a bacon egg and cheese croissant from our College cafeteria, and about 4 hours earlier I began having somach problems. Not necessarily stomach aches, but the feeling that I had to go to th bathroom really bad. So I did, and it wasvery loose. Afterwards, against my better judgement, I are a chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. Do you think I will be OK?

I have a horrific pain right under my breast spreading across the whole right side of the rib. Could it be a rib problem? I know I was seriously stressing muscles for about 3 days straight, muscles I haven't used in a while ,plus I had a cold with constant hard sneezing and hard coughing.
Thanks

I had pain in my lower right abdomen in january for 7 days. I went to the ER because I don't have medical insurance and someone told me they are good at working payment arrangments. I just got a bill for over 5 thousand dollars in the mail. I called and they said they would send me the paper work via mail to apply for payment arrangments, but I couldn't set it up over the phone. My question is, how good are hospitals (mine is in California) at working with people who don't have medical insurance and have a limited income? I am a full time graduate student so this may be difficult to pay back..

Because of the insane amount of health benefits associated with green tea, I recently traded in my morning pot of coffee for green tea instead. One thing I noticed right away was my urge to smoke was not as intense with the green tea as it is with coffee. This makes me wonder if there are any studies on the effect of green tea helping smokers to quit, or controlling the urge to smoke. I wouldn't mind trading in my smokes for green tea as well, if this is the case.

I have had nausea off and on for the last month or so. It just comes and goes at random times, but it hits me hard. I know I'm not pregnant, and I am in good health. I quit smoking almost two months ago, I've been trying very hard to eat well and I've been exercising at least four days a week. Could my nausea be from my lifestyle change? And, if so, why would I feel this way if I'm now doing everything right? Please help- I can't take it anymore-but I don't have insurance so I can't go to a doctor. Thanks in advance for any help!

I have this odd pain in my left knee that I usually can't feel unless I'm sitting indian style, or have my left foot pulled back. Whenever I'm training jiu-jitsu and my left knee cap is in contact with the mat with my foot pointing toward my back, I feel it, and it hurts like a mother.

It feels like there is a vein or something on the surface of my kneecap, that when the skin is tightened around the kneecap the vein is more exposed and sensitive, when it makes contact with something there is pain.

I'm not sure if that is a fair assessment but it's moreso a guess. Can anyone give me an idea of what's going on?

Having just had an operation via keyhole surgery and been allowed to leave the hospital to recover at home, I find myself in a situation where i'm totally stressed out. Is this likely to extend my recovery time or will it not affect the healing process?

I've been trying to find actual STUDIES by REPUTABLE companies and cannot find one anywhere. I'm looking for one that isn't biased either. I've searched all over online for clean clear facts and have found none.

While growing up I heard it was 5 times worse than cigarettes and I want to find proof or if it is incorrect I want t find the negative correlations in the study.

Thanks!


FYI. I do not smoke pot but I do think it should be legalized.

It started with a nasty cough yesterday and last night I had a fever so i took some Ibuprofen and I feel a little better now. But I still have my cough and now my right ear hurts.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I can't go to the doctor today (and probably tomorrow) because of all this snow we're getting

I've been having this problem lately, no matter what I do, I cant seem to feel refreshed in the morning!! I get plenty of sleep, probably even more than I should. I have night classes from 6-9 every night, so because of that I can't get myself to go to sleep much earlier than like 11 or so. I was wondering if there could be some way that I could feel better in the morning.... cuz' sleeping til noon and still feeling exhausted is not right!!

I've got this weird lump in my throat, it feels like I have to burp, but I don't really have to. but when I do burp, it relieves it for a minute and then goes back. Its not painful or anything, it's just really uncomfortable. Its like I've got this knot in my esophagus or something, or like a weird muscle contracting down there. I didn't do anything to strain it, or anything. It usually happens at night and happens like once a year.

As a child we had an ottoman with thick "feet" on it, It was a few feet into the living room, I would wack my pinky toe nearly every day on that thing. No wonder my pinky looks abused! Anyone?
