He thinks his nose is broken. The patient hit two other nurses today. He is mentally OK, but medically unstable. Do you think the doc is wrong to keep him in the hospital in restraints receiving treatment, if the patient says he wants to go home?

I'm not an expert or anything (hell, I'm only 16) but I think this is my blood pressure. Some days I will get dizzy and lightheaded (like from low blood pressure) and I know it's not a big deal. But then some days I have extreme headaches like the ones caused by high blood pressure. These days can be back to back, but recently I've been experiencing both in the same day!

Like today I woke up and as I'm cooking breakfast I needed to stop and lay down because of a sudden drop in blood pressure (dizzy, nauseous, lightheaded, passes in a few mins if I lay down). and then a few hours later as I'm sitting doing my homework it feels like pressure builds in my head and I get this killer headache (but not a migraine, because I can look at light and am not sound sensitive) and my heart pounds and it can take a while to pass.

It is bad to have both extremes back to back in the same day? What would cause this? Just curious, but thanks for info!

She has a strong odour from her vagina no matter how often she washes or baths, could this all be caused from to much yeast?? Is it even connected with the colds and coughs?
Im concerned with the amount of cough medicine she takes when this is happening. I was told by the dr. no to worry but im afraid there may be more to this...

I'm a 55 year old female. In August 2006, I had some minor abdominal surgery. Since then, for some reason, I have developed a bifurcated sleep pattern. I can't stay awake past 8 PM. Sometimes I'm even in bed and asleep by 6:30 PM. I then wake up anywhere between 11 PM and 2 AM. I don't fall asleep again right away, but just as I feel I want to go to sleep again, I have to get up and go to work. I work a 6 AM to 2 PM shift, and I have a 30 mile (50 km) drive, so I have to get up about 4 AM. This makes me feel tired and cranky the rest of the day. I thought this was unusual, but apparently many people experience this as evidenced lately by all the ads for sleep regulating drugs such as Lunesta, Ambien and Sonata. I'd prefer to have a non-drug solution. Any suggestions? Thanks.

It all started about maybe 4-5 days ago. I think. But it's not a painful feeling. Just a feeling as if my hand is about to go to sleep. But I still have feeling and capable of moving my fingers and hand around. I also crack my knuckles alot and tend to rest my elbow on my computer desk as I browse the web. I am also 15 years old. And a bit overweight. But as I am 6'1 I say I am a tad over weight. But im not sure if that would matter anyways. If anyone could please help me for I am concerned about my health, because I have looked this up on Yahoo! answers and they are saying it could be a sign of a heart problem, Diabetes, Or carpal tunnel. But my father says I more than likley pinched a nerve. Please somone help me with this. Thank you.

It all started about 3 days ago, when I had a little sore throat, it was fine, didn't any worse but not any better. By yesterday my nose was a bit stuffed, and last night i noticed i was kind of sore so I took a hot bath and went straight to sleep. Then this morning I woke up and I was so sore I could barely move (and I still can't it's not getting any better) I had a very stuffy nose and my throat was sore. I stayed home and slept till 10, and have just been relaxing on the couch the whole day but I still feel awful! I took some medicine but it didn't help.
Do you know what it could be?
How long it will last?
and anything I could do to help feel a bit better?
Any help will be really good! thanks! XX

Me and my friends were trying that thing where, if you take 10 deep breaths then put your hands across your chest, then let a friend squeeze you against a wall, you'll pass out. I did it and I actually collapsed. The next thing I knew, I was on the pavement, my face hurt from hitting it and all my friends thought I was faking.

Have you ever heard of or done that?

I quit smoking a little over a year ago, but recently I've picked it back up again due to little bits of stress adding up and bowing at maximum velocity into my face. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any other ideas to relieve stress. Cause I don't wanna start my problem with cigarettes all over again.

I notice that when I sit still for extended periods of time that I get a weird feeling behind my left knee cap. I normally notice it when I go to bed, but I don't believe I have RLS because it is only in that one area on my left leg. It doesn't hurt, it is just really annoying. It feels like someone is pressing their thumb really hard behind my kneecap. If I touch that area, the sensation goes away. It is like the nerves of my skin override the other signal. Lately I have just been placing a pillow on top so I can't feel it. Does anyone know what this is? When I get into bed it will last about 30 minutes to 1 hour. That is the only time I ever feel it.
