I'm testing the theory that I'm allergic to foods of some sort...or I'm not equalizing the right nutrients. Too much of anything is bad...you need the opposite chemicals to balance things in your system... this is my THEORY. If you have any ideas why it stinks or why I sweat soooooo profusely...pleeeaase, let me know. And yes I have asked doctors ( plural ) oppinions! They say not to worry...I can't stand it! I need to do something about it! Yes, it's disgusting...yea, I don't need to hear about that fact! Real knowledge only please!

My friend has been injured at work and can no longer work. She has no medical or income at this time. She owes her doctor twenty dollars and he refuses to see her. They did let her come to the office to check her blood pressure. It was 150/110. They told her she could not get any sample meds or see the doctor.
Isn't there some responsibility on the doctors office. I mean can they really just send someone out the door knowing they are very ill?

i have been making payments on what i can and when i can on a hospital bill and was reported to a collection agency within 3 months of not making a payment, yes i know my fault but when i called the other day and tried to set up a payment plan they wanted more than i could afford and basically told me if i cant pay the obligation then send what i can but they will still report me. I asked if they would rather not get any money at all and she said "that is not what i said" but basically it was. Why would i pay and they still report me as dilinquent? Can they do this? and i was making an effort to pay them?

I am a 34 year old mother of 2 school age children (7 &12), I work out 3-5 times a week, and I am a stay at home mom who does regular housework and things. I recently began getting tired around 3 in the afternoon every day- really tired. I get plenty of rest, and have no idea why this started. I also get terrible headaches during my period, which also recently started. Does anyone know if these sound like I am deficient in something, or have any homeopathic suggestions to render? I would appreciate the input. Thanks

For the past five days I've felt like I'm on the brink of passing out. I can not stop shaking, I can't even squeeze my hand into a fist. I just feel horrible. I'm 6 and a half weeks pregnant, but I don't think that has anything to do with it, but it's why I'm worried. My entire body almost has a numb feeling to it. Is this dehydration? I haven't been too bad about drinking water, but my morning sickness does give me an adversion to drinking anything once in a while. But no vomiting. Has anyone else felt this before and how did you make it go away?

My boyfriend really needs glasses. First, though, he needs a perscription. And insurance.
I honestly know nothing about this because my parents have always taken care of it for me.
Does anyone know...how expensive is it all? (Insurance, the appointment, ordering lenses/frames?)

Any help would be appreciated.

It smells like a rat has died in our heating/a/c unit at our office, but our bos is too cheap to fix the problem and it is causing employees to get flu-like symptoms. Where would someone file an annonymous complaint - like to the board of health maybe? anyone have any suggestions? it needs to be annonymous and for the state of califonia.

Is it worth it to switch from a PPO to an HMO if an employee will gain an additional $200 per paycheck upon making the switch? Are the limitations in a HMO plan a reason not to make the switch? Will I have to keep changing doctors because they will drop the HMO plan at some point?

I have a small lump on my thumb just above and to the side of the knuckle. It doesn't cause any pain and it comes and goes. When it's there I notice that my thumbnail has a white streak from the nail bed to the top of the nail which eventually grows out, it also causes the nail to flatten and thicken but only where the white streak is. The lump itself is sometimes red-almost like a bad pimple but it never seems to do anything. I can press on it without causing any pain. I could go to the Doctor but it seems a minor complaint and not worth paying the co-pay. Does anyone have any ideas? I haven't noticed any connection with foods, and it comes and goes at will almost, this is the 2nd time this year it has appeared.
