I've been wearing contacts and glasses since I was 14. Im 21 now and my prescription has been adjust from a -1.50 to a -2.75 and I think I maybe need to get a new one now too.

Is there anything I can do to prevent my eyesight from degrading anymore? I'm actually concerned that in the future I may become legally blind.

My grandpa is in ICU and he's very bad. He is 82 and has phnumonia and hasn't been eating. They said his kidneys were very dehydrated. Today they had to insert a feeding tube and they said he wasn't getting oxygen in his blood so they put him on a ventalator. Is a ventalator the same as life support? I'm very worried the doctor said that he's only giving him about a 20% chance of living. He needs prayer so plz remember him.

It started 3-4 days ago. first i guess my nose was stuffy. then it was my throat which started hurting. then real bad throat ache. then it got mildly better. then i developed a cough. then my throat got little better, but still hurts a little. BUT NOW worst of all is this pain in one of my ears. it hurts a ton. especially when you let out one of those silent burps, then it hurts for a second real bad. I KNOW i must go to doctor which i probably will, but does anyone know what could be wrong? will the ear thing get better, because ive heard its just a sympton.

Does anyone have anxiety or panic attacks? sHow were you treated and did it work?

For the past 3 weeks I've noticed that when I'm in class, I start to feel naucous, lightheaded, dizzy, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, chest pains, and I feel like I'm gonna pass out and my mouth is really dry.

But sometimes I can be at my house and I'll feel this way for a little while. At night I feel fine (most of the time) when I know everyone is sleeping and safe.

Can an event trigger this? This started to happen after my boyfreind got really sick. I was always worried, then I got a sinus infection. As soon as I got better, this started.

By the way, this exact experience happened to me at the end of my Senior year in high school. I took two years off and I'm now in college and it's happening again.

Can someone help me out? What kind of doctor do I see? How did you cope with your anxiety? And do you think this is a panic attack that I'm experiencing?

Lasts for 10-40 minutes.

I was wrestling with someone almost 2 months ago. I hit my arm, just above the elbow on something really hard. It was bruised up almost the size of the entire span of my hand... which is 6.5 inches from middle finger to wrist then 6.5 inches from thumb to pinky tip spread out. The bruise wrapped around the under side of my arm and was really nasty. So now almost 2 months later, it -still- hurts. It started throbbing last night about 2 hours before a bad storm rolled in. And I have no insurance and there aren't any free clinics in the area, so... how likely is it that I broke or cracked that bone? For the longest time I couldn't lift the arm above my head. It still hurts to put any weight on it. But I can use the arm alright.
