It is probably because i was sleeping on it and blood doesn't circulate though my hand, but i get so fu***** scared when it happens. If i sleep on it for a long time, will there be serious consequences??

I can not stand when Mr. even touched my arm last night. My arm felt like fire when he touched it. I am like this for weeks!
My head hurts when ever I touch it lately (couple months now), brushing my hair has been very painful. I have been blaming it on my migraines.
I have health problems but this is getting old. There must be others who hurt when touched? What do you do to stop this? My doctor does not return phone calls (or his nurse), I know I need another doctor....
Have any useful advice for me?

I have been having constant chest pain sinc Friday. It feels like there is a fist pressing on my breast bone, makng it hard to get enough breath some times.

My grandmother and my bf say it is gas. My friend says it is probably anxiety.

Can gas cause chest pain?

In the last month, twice I've woken up in the middle of the night choking like crazy, then have to keep coughing to clear up my windpipe and get my breath back. Is this something to worry about or does it happen every now and then? Oh and what should I do if this happens again in the night because I sleep alone and there will be no one to help me get my breath back etc.

I am told that putting a bar of Dove soap in bed at your feet will help this problem . So i tried it for a week and really did not find any difference . Has anyone out there ever heard of this or tried it .

A couple years ago I jumped in the 5 foot deep section in the pool and landed on my foot really hard. I had extreme pain that day and my foot was swollen and purplish. It hurt a few days after that then it seemed fine. For a while i didn't have any promblems. Now whenever I do lots of vigorous activity it starts to hurt really bad. It seems like it swells a little comparing it to my other ankle but it doesn't turn red or purplish. I can not bend where my leg is attached to my foot. It usually gets better after a couple days but does anyone know what it could be? Does it have anything to do with the pool incident?

My son got hit with a bat on accident by his sister. He has a knot but we are using ice and I think he is ok. I know he has to stay awake for awhile but I don't know how long.
