are there any sufferers out there?

What areas are affected?

Do you have pain alot of the time, or can you be affected with no pain whatsoever?

Thanks in advance

I had my upper left wisdom extracted 9 days ago. The past few days I have felt like something is in my throat, on the side of my throat that is the same side I had the wisdom tooth pulled. It's not sore, but I feel something there and it's annoying. I looked in my throat with a flashlight and saw a white patch on the same side of the wisdom tooth I had extracted. I went to the oral surgeon for a recheck yesterday to see how I am healing and showed it to him, and he said it was just something in the crevice of my tonsil and was not related to my wisdom tooth extraction (although it seems like a weird coincidence to me that I've never had this before and that it's on the same side of the wisdom tooth.) Anyway, he gave me a syringe and I said I could try to irrigate it out myself, but I tried and it doesn't work. Will it go away by itself if I leave it alone? Also, how can I be sure that's what it really is and not a throat infection? I am starting to get very nervous.

i like scanning around zooming in on different towns and cities throughout the world as well as any odd looking geological things, i have come across some cool stuff but i would love to check out anything you may have found, especially if there are any crop circles present (my luck there were none during the last scan)

p.s if you want to look at something cool type in Chernobyl power plant and take a look at the dead zone (a huge area that was permanently evacuated when the nuclear power plant blew up, theres ships in the river rusting away clearly visible on google earth as well as tons of abandoned cars and entire towns, very interesting to explore.

My mom is 50 years old heavy chain-smoking woman for years. She is on her 3 packs a day habit with no intense to quit or cut it down. She is smoking for about 25 years, and she is always with a ciggie in her mouth smoking like a chimney and every day she smokes more and more. She also likes to smoke two cigs at once saying that she really needs to smoke more to feel good. In a recent years she started to smoke cigars on a daily purpose, she is really deeply inhaling them and says that she likes big smoke that fills her inside. She has a female friends about her age, who also smokes a lot and when they come to our house it is smoke everywhere i'm almost out of breath.
And my mom changed a lot. She looks older than she is, she got wrinkles on her face too early, she has a yellow tar stained teeth and very bad breath, she is always coughing a lot and constantly out of breath, sometimes i noticed that she is feeling dizzy, but she says she is ok and that she needs to smoke.Is it problem?

I'm 25, have hardly any appetite, constant upset stomach / recurring infections, shaky, but I don't feel tearful over anything that I should. I feel mentally numb, can't look people in the eye, always feel guilty for things that are nothing to do with me. Also crave cheese, salty foods + carbohydrates (but not chocolate and sweets). Dark circles under eyes, pale face, snappy, impatient, obsessive. I've had enough and really want to do the best thing from here on but.......don't know what the best thing to do is! My GP is reluctant to prescribe something like Valium but the thought of something like that fills me with relief if I could just use something to escape this 24/7 feeling of constant lack of well-being. I have been on Corticosteroids (Prednislolone) for Inflammaotry Bowel Disease for 10 years now and I read that this can severely deplete Serotonin levels. Anybody experienced these symptoms together and found that any medications / techniques / treatment has worked for this?

please dont make fun of this please i really need help!!
my nose starts small at the beggining of it and then it starts getting wider as it goes down

it really does start really small and it gets wider as it goes down, i mean not like other noses not like the basic shape of the nose(i know that the basic shape of the nose is like that but trust me my nose isnt like that its too small at the top and its not straight it has like a bump on it

and because that its too small from the top i was wondering why and i kind of got to this
(please dont make fun of this)
when i was about 10-11 years old i used to wear glasses and my glasses where really tight on the top of my nose
and before i wore glasses my nose didnt look like this
i was wondering if my nose got small at the top beacause the glasses were very tight that they left some marks on my nose, or maybe because my glasses were really tight that maybe when my nose was growing because they were tight at the top the rest of my nose grew and got wider exept for the top because i wore tight glasses
is that really possible?????
is it why??????????
i still wear glasses but not tight ones actually i stopped wearing them about a month ago
if i start wearing contacts will the marks of the glasses on the side of my nose go away????
and could my nose get bigger at the top?????

pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!!!!?????
i really need your help
i have really been soooooooooooooooooo worrried about my nose
i'm afraid that i may have affected my nose because of my stupid glasses(the ones that were tight on my nose)

please don't make fun of my question i know its weird
please any useful comment is really appreciated

Spring and Summer I feel just fine, but for some reason during Fall & Winter I wake up almost every morning feeling like I got hit by a bus. Sore muscles, slight headache, scratchy throat and pretty congested. It almost feels like a hangover! From a day to day paspect I don't change my routine during these months. Could it be allergy related? I live in Atlanta GA in case geography has something to do with it.

So yeah, I'm gonna try and drink 10 pints of water today. I'm on my 4th...But it's really weird, I can feel the water kinda in my head, it's hard to describe....and my sight is a bit weird, I can still see but when I focus on something, I can't really!

Why do you think this is?

My dad has been in overseas for tha past 2 years.When he made his 2 week visit 6 months ago, for the first time he used his Aetna insurance.He went to the IC Laser Eye Care at Bensalem to simply get an eye examination.The doctor gave him a prescription to get glasses but he never did that because he had to leave the U.S. So just today we get a phone call from their office saying that we owe $400. I called the office, but they said to call the insurance company. I then did that and I asked them what this payment was about, they named 3 things one for "office consultation" $200, one for "visualization" $100, and he said something that starts with the letters "gonoes__"(sorry dont know the rest)I have absolutely no idea what theyre talking about. By the way, they then told me to call back the doctors office and that he's "responsible" to pay for this. Please tell me what I should do to get out of this mess because my dad did nothing more than to get his eye examined which only cost $20...
