Doctor said it's probably nothing b/c it's only a trace, and will give an ultra sound... but i can't help but worry, what could it be?

O.k. I had a broken nose and a doctor shoved the right side of my nose in way too much like 6 years ago and I've had serious problems since then including severe sinusitis, sinus head aches and breathing problems. Not only that I used to be good looking and now I'm not, but I'm not horrendously ugly so the Doctor's don't want to fix what they messed up for less then like ten grand. Then 2 doctors tell me they see how my right nostril is kinda closed now, one suggests sinus surgery, the other one tells me he'll fix the problem if I let him operate on my nose tip as a compromise, then this kid Doctor tells me just take claratin all the time when Doctors caused the problem. I hate doctors! I had had a slight bump on my nose that didn't look that bad and I could breath before they started messing with me. And the worse thing is some doctor's just won't listen to anything and they all have crappy opinions.

I know you can live after having a lung, kidney and spleen removed, but what else can you have removed and still live without needing constant medical attention? Also, how much of everything else do you need, for example, how many feet of intestine do you really need?

I have always had an "iron" stomach. Over the last year, however, I have frequent (i.e.- once or twice per month) stomach aches. Sometimes these are accompanied by diarrhea. Only occasionally do I have vomiting symptoms. I assumed the flu or a virus and set an appointment with the doctor, when it happened twice in two weeks -- along with my children being sick. The doctor said it was most likely a mild case of food poisoning.

I've had food poisoning before. If this was it, it was definitely "mild" comparatively. It is hard for me to believe I'm getting food poisoning so frequently, though. I do eat a lot of microwaved lunches, at work (i.e.- leftovers heated up). I've been doing that for years, though.

I read up on food illnesses, and there is usually an 8 hour or 12 hour gestation period for many viral and bacterial problems. I am pretty conscious of what I eat, too. I make sure I heat things up very well. Finally, I pitch refrigerated leftovers after 3-4 days. Help?

I have the name of a Yahoo group, but when I search for the group so that I can join, I can't find it. Are groups unpublished? And if so, how does one join?

I kind of have an idea, like, it empties our mids of junk, or somethinglike that, but has anything deeper than that been found? I'm asking for scientific answers here. I guess I'll take some philosphocal ones, too, but they won't be chosen as best answers. And is it true that only intellectual people dream in color?

I LOVE to kiss! It seems that no one likes to just make out for hours....all they want to do is go straight to SEX. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE sex, just sometimes it's nice to makeout. Am I the only one who thinks this? Am I the only one who finds this sexy, and sensuous? What's your opinion?

I'm 17 in my summer, barely no commitments, so i sleep by my own time: stay up at night, and sleep in the day.

I usually go to bed at 5-7 AM and wake up at 12-2 PM, does that affect my HEALTH in any way ?

I am 19 male and I keep getting rashes around where the diaper elastic part goes around my inner thigh. When I urinate it seems like the sweat and heat flare up a rash and makes a bad infectious smell.

Can I get any goo to put on to prevent these diaper rashes. My mom said I have to wear diapers untill I am better but ive been wearing them since I was born.

I am a 19 year old male. Ever since I can remember I have had chest pains that happen at random times during the day. Even if I am doing nothing but sitting in class or eating. It always happens so suddenly on the left-center of my chest and effects that lung, or I assume so from not being able to breathe in. The pain is minor, but increases with the more air I breathe. Usually around 1/4 the capacity of my lungs the pain is unbareably sharp like I am being stabbed. The pain always goes away, but usually after 15-20 seconds. It used to be only once every few weeks. Lately it has been 2 or 3 times a week, and on some occasions recently, it has been that many times a day. What can be the matter? Physically I am in great shape, I lift weights every day, run, and eat healthy. I have no asthma or any medical conditions that I know of. I am afraid to go to a doctor for these pains. Please help.
