I’m a 40 year old female who underwent cardiac ablation for tachycardia three weeks ago. Ever since I have had episodes of my heart vibrating for several seconds then pausing for one second, this goes on for up to an hour. Is this a normal side effect? I feel fine otherwise and I only feel the vibrating when I’m laying still in bed.
Hi, my name is (…), i am a 46 year old male. I have Temporal lobe epilepsy and am NOT on meds. other than that i consider myself to be in relatively good shape. i have of late started to get extremely fatigued after any meal i have. At 1st i considered Gluten intolerance, but have eliminated this as the cause by avoiding foods that contain it and also by eating a single food group at a time. eg Protein for lunch today. I am really tired and it my brain seems to be on a slow strike. This happens with every meal, I have started to avoid eating at work otherwise I cant function properly…Is this something to do with Diabetes?

I have suffered from random intermittent neuropathic pain in my left upper arm for approx last 2 years. It will occur causing me to clutch my arm the happen a few times throughout the day then not happen again for weeks or months. It happened recently and during an episode my left index finger jerked. I know I should see my GP but would just like to know what you think first of all. Does this sound like early symptoms of MS?
Hi I’m (…), I am Fifty years old, I am 183cm and weigh 16stone, I don’t smoke and drink once a week, my medical history is good so far. In the past few weeks I have noticed that my semen was pink in color and the last time I ejaculated two days ago it was very red and had noticeable blood in it. I had my last doctor check up ten months ago and everything was fine. I don’t have any pain urinating nor do I have any discomfort, it is alarming to see this so do I have anything to worry about? Thank you in advance for your help.

Please help, every doctor I go to seems to think nothing is wrong with me, but something’s not right.
I am a 30 yr old female and started having a pain in a very specific part of my head. On the back right middle head and it’s only in a spot about the size of my fingertip. I’ve also begun seeing a blue flash every now and then (couple times a week) out of my right eye. The pain isn’t bad, probably a 2 out of 10 and it just lasts about 5 seconds then goes away and might come back a few time throughout the week. I’ve had thorough eye work ups with an ophthalmologist and so I do not have any eye problems. I just found it weird that the pain is in such a small isolated spot and keeps coming and going. It has not gotten worse since I first noticed it about a year ago.

Hi! I am (…) from Norway. For the past 8 years i have had some scars in my nose that has been really irritating. Because every morning and evening i have to blow my nose because of dry blood from the infected area. Also there is a lot of bleeding every day because of this.. its very frustrating. I have spoke with some doctors here where i live (small place) and they gave me a cream called “altargo 10mg/g” but in the manual it says with capital letters, “do not use in nose, mouth, eyes or other slimy places. Only for external use, skin on arm or leg etc. So i would really like some help to find out what i can do to make these wounds heal. Btw i did take a test, and it came positive with some bacteria present in the infected area (way up in the nose). I am tired of needing to blow my nose 2 times a day to be able to breath, thanks. best regards,
I am a 31 year old female with 4 children. I am having old people health problems. i exercise daily and eat healthily yet never lose weight, 3 years ago I started having weakness in my wrists and hands, I also had a colonoscopy bc of pain and many precancerous polyps had to be removed, I’ve always had horribly painful uterus issues. For the past 8 weeks I’ve had persistent numbness in on the right side of my face and right leg. Brian MRI was normal except brain signal associated with elderly. I’ve also for 8 weeks have had shooting nerve pain from my back to leg and sometimes to my arms as well along with constant low back pain. Back MRI shows moderate degenerative disc disease This past year my pulse has been 38-45 each doctors visit along with my heart skipping beats. im young not a heavy drinker or drug addict and I do no smoke. Is there anything that could explain why im having so many elderly issues? Taking ibuprofen when desperate but it does not help. Gallabladder removed 2008
Ovarian cyst removed 2013

I am 19 years old, male, and suffer from daily to near daily headaches that vary in pain, change location throughout the day, and don’t always follow a pattern of occurrence (Some weeks it will be every day, other weeks it’ll be every other day, and some weeks it’ll be a couple days in a row and then nothing the next day and then one after that) I have had no previous traumatic head or brain injury, and have not yet consulted with a doctor/neurologist. Ibuprofen/other pain killers will work for short amount of times sometimes and other times they will not work at all. I wanted to know why I receive these constant headaches.
My 17 year year old daughter was diagnosed with leg length discrepancy after going to the doctor for pain in her back and right leg. Her right femur is 1.8 inches shorter than her left. Due to the tilt of her pelvis it has also caused her spine to have a slight s curve and her rib cage to pertrude of her left side. The doctor we went and saw recommended we go and get a shoe lift. She has worn that for almost 6 months and the pain has not gotten any better. She suffers from lower back, hip, knee, and ankle pain. I took her back to that same doctor two times and he just keeps on insisting the lift will work and we haven’t given it enough time. I was just wondering if there’s anything else we could possibly do and what other treatments are available.

I’ve had an MRI of my c-spine and l-spine and it shows:
C5-6 Facet Hypertrophy, no stenosis
C6-7 Facet hypertrophy right grater than left, broad-based disc bulge, and uncovertebral hypertrophy right grater then left. There is a right foraminal encroachment, no stenosis visible.
L4-5 Mild concentric disk bulge with shallow midline protrusion, and mild facet hypertrophy, giving bilateral foraminal encroachment. No frank stenosis
L3-4 Concentric disc bulge, with a small midline disc protrusion, facet hypertrophy, and relatively narrow spinal canal. Ventral CSF is near completely effaced, with thecal sac cross-section 0.8cm AP by 1.5cm left right. There is right foraminal encroachment.
Is it possible that the problem is a disc bulge in my T-spine?
Hi my name is (…), I am 24 years old and I had my appendix removed about nine years ago. I’ve been having pains every since. In the past nine months the pains got worse. I’ve had many different scans with no results. I had a xray done of my spine and there are surgical clips in my lower right quadrant as stated on my results. Really just need some answers to why they would still be there and if I’m right about them causing all my pain over the years. What steps should I take next.
