In August, I suffered a blow to my left thigh and suffered a bleed in the muscle, it wasn't serious. But today it has gone dead again, in the same place I suffered the blow originally.
Could it be to do with my doing quite a bit of cycling over the past two days?

Its not the tip, which could have folded and I don't wear any hats. The middle area is the part that hurts -- the pain disappears after a short time. The whole thing is random, very random - why is that?

I hurt my back a month ago while on the trampoline. IT was one of those pains where if you got in a certain positon you hurt.

But now it has turned into a constant pain with no signs of stopping. it just gets worse. I cant stand it sometimes, especially carrying lots of books around all day at school.

i'm having pain on my left shoulder blade and shoots up to my neck. lately i also noticed that my left shoulder is lower than my right. When i move my left arm i feel pain on my upper arm down to my elbows. My left arm feels like its tired a lot. It,s been awhile since i played tennis and most of the time i use my right arm. Sometimes the problem pain occurs when i sleep and it helps if i prop my left shoulder with a pillow. My doctor recommend that i see a massage therapist. I don't feel any numbnes but i do get headaches and when i tilt my head back i feel the pain on my left side, neck and shoulder area. will a chiropractor be able to help or do i need to have an x-ray done. i have always been healthy except for migraines now and then....any feed back will be greatly appreciated.

About 2-3 years ago I fell while I was snowboarding. I didn't fall very hard but the very next day it hurt to sit in the hard chairs at school. Ever since then every now and then it hurts just the same. Did I fracture the bone? What can I do?

It's not fair, I eat really well with plenty of fruit and no rubbish stuff, I drink at least 2 or 3 litres of water a day and do a minimum of 5 hours exercise a week. I should be in peak condition and feeling great. I feel rubbish!! I don't do drugs, I don't drink very often so what's going on? I never want to get out of bed, my body aches a lot and my joints are in a terrible way when I do any exercise. I can't be ill because I've felt like this for YEARS!! Any ideas? (My GP is useless, by the way, he wont do anything unless I am actually in fear of dying of something)

I have had abdominal pain off and on for about 4 months. It feels like gallbladder pain, but I had my gallbladder removed about 9 years ago. Any suggestions as to what it could be? I'm not sick or debilated by this but it is uncomfortable at times.

Hi,

I used to take a nap back in my school days. However, since I'm working now, it really bothers me that sometime I can't keep my eyes open in the afternoon. However, after I passed 8PM, i feel energized again. I just hope that I could be energized from 8AM-5PM.

Anyway, does anyone one of you know how to work this out ? I sleep 6-7 hours a day. Perhaps a vitamin to boost your stamina ? Anyone ?

The machine I'm refering to is the one at hospitals that keeps people alive. The one in TV shows where they always ask someone if they should pull the plug and end someone's life.

Ive noticed the last few times everytime i come to work after a long night of clubbing that my coworker can smell the liq coming out my pores. I usually get home by 330, take a shower, eat a sandwich and then in the morning before work take another shower and it still comes out. Any suggestions besides not to have so many drinks:) Thanks!!

I have not been feeling well for over 3 mths. It all began w/ a real bad vomiting episode one night. In the days/weeks to follow I had pretty bad nausea. All the while, I've been having hot flashes & chills. In the last few wks my nausea has improved. As of the last 3 days however, I've been having more hot flashes & chills. Last night I had a little fever (99.5) & I was shivering. I woke up sweating in the morning.

I have a friend who needs to find out her blood type to see if she can donate part of her liver to her mother. She has called Red Cross, all 3 of her doctors & many other people and they all say they can't do it or that it would take 6-8 weeks for the results. She needs to know as soon as possible. Does anyone have any sure ideas of where she could go today and get the results at least within a week? And the type is not on her birth certificate either.
