I sometimes get sharp pains around the heart and upper back to the left. They arent very painful, last for less then a second, does anyone know what could cause this? What it might be?....I am going to the doctor on Friday and am going to ask him, just curious if anyone might have any idea. Thanks.

Whenever I have too much sugar (such as in hot chocolate or a cinnamon bun) I feel really sick. If I don't eat for a few hours I have really bad headaches....could this be related to my blood sugar at all? Should I be concerned?

Hello,
I am 17 years old. I have been having headaches every day since the end of September. I have been to the doctors multiple times and I was prescribed different medications. I am currently taking Fioricet, and Citalopram. The Fioricet is to stop severe headaches when they come...but that doesn't really help. As for the Citalopram my doctor thought the headaches might be stress related so this is a slight antidepressant which was supposed to start relieving headaches after a few weeks. I've been taking it for about a month now without any results except a better mood. It's not hereditary because noone else in my family ever had this problem either. Can anyone tell me what could be causing this? Thank You.

Every time I take T3, I end up with terrible back pain. Allergic reaction? I very seldom take it, but today my ear hurt a lot.

I have something similar to a splinter in my finger except I don't think it's wood. I was unable to remove it and it is beneath the surface of my finger. If I leave it in, will my finger become infected? Is it imperative that it be removed?

I like how Adderall makes me feel so I tried getting prescription at my doctor office. I told him I had ADD. He was in the middle of asking me a question and I blurted out "Meatloaf on funnel cakes mixed with sponge bob squarepants and a supernova".

He said that this behavior is more indicative of psychosis than ADD and basically told me I was pulling his chain. He then stopped the appointment. What can I do to sue him for malpractice and discrimination?

I have rheumatoid arthritis, and because I take methotrexate I have blood drawn monthly to check for liver damage.

On Saturday, I went for my lab work but wouldn't bleed. My blood was thick-almost like syrup-and I was unable to give the required 2 tubes.

I'm normally a bleeder, and this was highly unusual.

The other drugs I take are 5 mgs prednisone, zantac, and 2400 mgs of ibuprofen daily.

I am 22 years old and in good health. Ever since I was about 12 I sometimes get severe pain in my back.

Sometimes I will simply bend over and my lower back will sudddenly be strained. Other times I have major muscles spasms in my back and all of the muscles in my upper back, shoulders and neck area will be so tight that I cant even turn my head or lift my arm for over a week!

I have been to doctors and even the hospital about this problem in the past and the only thing they ever do is give my pain killers and muscle relaxers which just mask the pain and make me drowsy.

Are there any alternate treatments? Accupuncture? Specific Massage? Anything that might help me!

I am having a lot of sciatica pain. Without going into detail I had surgery for a disc problem 6 years ago. I don't want to go that route again. It's very costly and really I think made me have more problems now than if I went another way.

I am starting a new job in a week and will be sitting down a lot. I need to control the sciatica pain. What would you do first? I am planning on seeing a doctor but seriously can't afford going through physical therapy and the whole nine yards right now.
