A couple of weeks ago I passed out in a store. No one could bring me around right away. I could hear everyone but they seemed far away like they were in a tunnel. I was taken by ambulance to the hospital. All their tests were normal. They said that I needed to follow up with a family doctor and a cardiologist. That I should have a stress test. I have no health insurance.
The next day I felt like I was going to pass out again and my blood pressure/pulse were up.
Last Monday, I was at home and felt like I was going to pass out and it was hard to talk because of the stiffness on the left side of my face. That side of my face was twitching as well. I was fine in the ER until I had to stand up then I would almost pass out again. Again their tests were normal and after a while I was feeling fine. They said I needed to follow up with a family doctor.

My eyes opened up, but I couldn't move my body at all. All I could do was hear my heartbeat. I thought I was dying in my sleep. Finally I could move, but It was really scary and weird. Has this ever happened to anyone before?

I spent a wonderfully relaxing day in the garden yesterday, but I now have 2 insect bites on my foot that are swollen and itching like mad. I am 28 weeks pregnant and every product in my house says not recommended for pregnant women. What can I use?
They are really itching!!!

I've seen 3 different GP's that tells me that it's impossible for the painkillers to cause itching, the last one agreed to prescribe another kind of painkiller, but it doesn't kill the pain.

I've been taking painkillers for over 15 years now and I have never had a problem like this before. It all started when I had surgery about 18 months ago. The itching drives me crazy and I've been to the ER a couple of times because of it. They said that it is some sort of allergy, but couldn't say against what.

I know it's the painkillers since it only itches when I take them.

My problem is that the other kind of painkillers that the GP gave me isn't doing anything for the pain. I need to stop the pain and I take the painkillers that itch.

Has anyone heard of anything like this?
Do you know what causes the itching?
Is it dangerous for me to take the painkillers that makes me itch?
Any suggestions about how to stop the itching?

I'm 16 and for the past year or so I've had off and on pains in my lower back and upper butt area. I did cheerleading and it might be due to that. But either way the pains will not go away now, they are pretty permanent for the time being. I can't sit down long enough to drive for a half hour or even watch a movie. Laying in bed is painful if i have to sit up. I'm only comfortable walking and sleeping. When I stand up from sitting down I have to hold my back and walk slowly crouched over until my back feels alright to stand upright again. I also can't sit still for more then 15 minutes. I know I need to see a doctor or whatever. Still, I need advice.
