I think I have a sinus infrection, and am on antibiotics, but I have tooth pain that switches one from tooth to the other on the same side. Is it dental or medical?

i need to buy a gift for my blind aunt who i will be visiting in india. she does not know braille, nor does she listen to american music. so braille books and music CDs are out. i feel clothes are so generic of a gift. i've given her perfume in the past.

i would love to hear a great, special suggestion that would make her day! she is a very special person but had such bad luck because of her eyesight. she is married and has two daughters (one is in college and one in high school). she usually lives by herself at home while her husband is at work.

i'd appreciate your answers...please, no sarcasm here - this is a sensitive topic.

Today, I had to get a full spinal x-ray of my back. I went to the lab to get it done, and when they did, they made me fill out a form stating that I wasn't pregnant. I thought it was a little weird since I'm only 13, but I went with it. When I handed back the form, they said they didn't believe me when I said I wasn't pregnant. They said I couldn't get my x-ray and to come back when I was on my period. But I needed that x-ray. It was very important. Finally, my mom persuaded them to do a pregnancey test, which came back negative. But if they did refuse to give me the x-ray until I was on my period, I could have gotten seriously hurt, more than I already was. What's up with this? I signed a form to say I wasn't pregnant!

we have a medical bill from 3 years ago that I didn't know insurance never paid. In the meantime, we do not have that insurance company anymore. What happened is the doctors office had filed it, and recently found it and now what us to pay, and said will send it to collection if we don't --I am so pissed off about this. The bill is for $1300.00, but insurance probably would have paid some of it years ago,it probably was never evn filed. So how much will the doctors loose on sending it out to collection, becasue I am willling to let that happen.

Have you had any feeling that something is pulling you from different directions and made you felt nervous? I have been feeling this way lately and I can't think of any possible reason. Any advise would help.

it was a mixture of numbness and pain. there were no symptoms whatsoever-just like the whole right side of the body was gone and useless.

I had a 9 lb baby 2 years ago. Halfway through the pregnancy, my pelvis (left side of crotch area) hurt so bad I couldn't walk except the bare minimum around house and workplace. Couldn't roll over in bed. Hurt to put pants on or climb stairs. After the birth, the pain was worse for about a month or two. The Dr didn't x-ray me because it is not good to do on healing tissues. Well, two years later the pain is mostly gone but the pain flares up once in awhile. Maybe I have a crack in the bone? I'm scared to have a second baby now. FYI I am 5 foot 3 and weigh 115 lbs.
