My daughter is 7 years old and has an extremely distended stomach. She’s had this issue for about 5 years now and it’s getting worse, with more pain. There are 4 people that live in our house, and not ONE person is overweight (i’m a health coach and personal trainer, so we eat crazy healthy). No fast food, no juice, pop, candy, etc.
Her stomach is so large, some days it looks like i could pop it with a pin.
She has had two appt with a gastro doctor that have done xrays of her stomach. He says she is full of poop and she had to take a HUGE amount of Miralax. DIDN”T WORK. Then the second xray was still just as bad. Then Magasieum drink. HUGE amounts. She complains of pain daily. Please help. They also did a Celiac text and infection test.
I added a photo of her stomach distention below.

My mom had 3 surgeries in 35 days: gallbladder removed, ER surgery for herniated and obstructed intestine (she was throwing up fecal matter from the blocked intestine) , and a gastric bypass. She has had a very very difficult time with all of it. She is still sick from the hernia repair from Sept. she also recently has been getting sudden purple hands. We are worried about the purple hands, what could this be?
I am a 35 year old male. I weigh 195 pounds and am 5 foot 9. I currently see a psychiatrist for OCD and Anxiety disorder. I am on 1-2 mg Alprazolam (as needed daily), and 200 mg of Sertraline. In addition to these medications, I have an albuterol inhaler that I take as needed — which is not very often, as I have very mild asthma.
(…) I have been free of using nebulizors, and other inhalers for 20 years — since I started high school. In these twenty years, I have not had a severe asthma reaction that warranted any concern. (…) I had a lung collapse when I was probably five years old, (…) But then it all went away! I went to college, ditched my medication and forgot all about my childhood ailment. (…)I have had pneumonia twice in the last ten years. I am NOT Tobacco smoker. I have for the last five years used cannabis on occasion (I use a double filter chambered water pipe)
On Sunday, 20th November, I woke up to a typical head cold. (…)
By Monday,(…) diagnosed with asthmatic exasperation, which I found very odd. (…) They gave me two nebulizer treatments (back to back), put me on prednisone, and gave me Amoxicillin. (…) Later that evening, things got worse, and my wife rushed me to the hospital (…)
My breathing was terrible. What I could breathe, which was extremely little, was an extremely loud and audible high pitched gurgling sound. I was admitted and began receiving nebulizer treatments every two hours. (…)I’m still doing nebulizer treatments on the machine I haven’t used in twenty years, and taking 40mg of prednisone. The hospital agreed, asthmatic exasperation. (…)
( My question ) How could I go twenty years virtually symptom free of asthma, to randomly, out of the blue, literally on my deathbed from this childhood affliction? In the last twenty years I have been exposed to so many things that never set my asthma off.

33 year old male. Stabbing chest pains like a needle for several weeks. This comes and goes and lasts seconds. Left Arm pain and pressure comes and goes in different places. This is mostly on the inside of elbow area. Constipated as well. I’ve been to the doctor and had several cardiac tests (4 ekgs, stress test, chest X-ray, blood work) all showing as normal. Holter monitor done as well, but no results yet.
I am a 17 year old male, and was diagnosed with probable viral meningitis around four years ago.
Since then, I have experienced some minor neurological after effects, such as including Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo a few years ago. However, since last December (nearly a year), I have felt much worse.
Currently, I am experiencing:
Muscle and Bones Weakness (persistent for a few years)
Vision issues (some black spots, particularly in particular lightings- diagnosed with light sensitivity and I wear glasses)
Memory problems (Quite severe- feeling of blankness/brain fog)
Speech issues (occasional- mixing up sentences)
Disorientation (occasional- feeling of dizziness- cured with food/water)
Headaches/ tension (back and sides of head- not very often/severe, made worse with blue light)
Lack of stamina (Easily physically tired)
I have had numerous recent blood tests, which have come back clear. I also had an MRI scan a few years ago shortly after the Viral Meningitis. My Doctors seem a bit perplexed at the moment, and their only course of action was a psychological examination to test for anxiety (which came back completely fine) and lifestyle changes (which seem to have helped slightly, although not with the memory/concentration).
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am concerned it will continue to have a very adverse affect on my life (particularly school).
Thanks again.
I am a 41 year old female. I take medication for blood pressure, a water pill and a statin. My tonsils have been removed and I was diagnosed with vitiligo at age 8.
The past two nights I have experienced severe pain in both my knees. It is a constant pain that I describe as a sledge hammer coming down on my knees. There is no redness and no swelling and I can move without worsening or lessening the pain. The pain will eventually taper off on it’s own, only to return at bedtime. I have had xrays and blood work done and have been advised of nothing to explain what is happening. I have had no injuries and do not participate in sports. I have no prior issues with joints, or my knees. I do walk daily for exercise. I am wondering what could be causing this sudden issue?
I had sex with my girlfriend and my frenulum tore , it was hurting me during sex so i decided to cut it off , i took a blade and made an incision and there was a lot of blood ..

my erections are weaker and i lose them and the head of the penis is not well vascularized
Can i reattach it by surgery ?

I’m 19 years old – just started 1st year of uni in September
in the middle of September 2016 i was given phenoxymethyl penicillin by my GP for what she thought was tonsillitis (I had white spots on my enlarged tonsils). the antibiotics helped for a few days but the symptoms returned very gradually. I went back about 2 weeks later and was given another course of the same antibiotic which once again worked for a few days then my symptoms returned.
I went back a week later when my throat seemed significantly worse and I was given a course of a different antibiotic – clarithromycin, by the same GP. at this point I still had white spots on my tonsils and the GP said I’d scored 4 out of 4 on their tonsillitis test.
the symptoms did go away this time as well but not completely. the white spots never returned but my glands and throat continued to be sore and occasionally my ears.
I went back and saw a different GP who said it looks like I have glandular fever and the only thing she could prescribe was rest and painkillers. that was about 3 weeks ago and my glands have become more swollen and my throat is in worse pain but there are no white spots on my tonsils they are just very big.
should I go back to the GP or do I really need to just wait it out?
oh and yes I finished all courses of antibiotics
Can you help, for the past few months I have been experiencing pain in my right shoulder from the shoulder blade to the top and down my upper arm and the right side of my neck which never goes away.
I keep getting a recurant sore throat now my chest is now feeling raw at sore. Suddenly the pain in my throat disappears then I get pains which starts in just below my knees and goes up to my hips and the bottom of my back.
Its like a deep niggling, gnawing pain which feels like need to stretch out. It gets to a point I just need to stop, even driving hurts, I don’t get relief from sitting, lying down.
I get maybe 1 weeks relief from the leg pain, then it’s back again. The sore throat then the leg pain goes round in a cycle and has been since July/August.
I have had blood done by the doctor in October who told me liver and kidney function were all normal, blood count and thyroid normal but my ferrous levels were low so I was given ferrous furmate tablets to take for a month.
I was also prescribed Omeprazole for heartburn and acid.
I have been prescribed pain killers, which don’t touch the sides and venlafaxine twice a day (not sure why!).
