Question: I tried mdma (ecstasy) 2 days ago and I had a very bad stroke

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

I tried mdma 2 days ago and I had a very bad stroke at the time I thought it was a panix attack so I didn’t go to the ER. I couldn’t think or talk right, my eyes wouldn’t focus, I forgot everything in a matter of seconds, my face went numb, my arms were numb and tingling and u couldn’t walk right. I am only 18 and know nothing when it comes to strokes and I’m also not a junkie so i don’t know if it was the molly or me. Anyway it’s been 2 days and I have memory loss sometimes, I can walk but it feels weird and I feel pressure in my chest and head. Should I go see a doctor or let this pass?

Question: 19 year old …pre cancer and hpv cells…doctors not helping me?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

For 8 months I had an infection. I started going to do the doctor and I had abnormal cells. The cells were pre cancer and hpv. I had to have some of my cervix cut out while this was going on my doctor quietly told the nurse what kind of infection I had. After he told me it’s not a yeast infection but it does act like one and that’s why over the counter meds for test won’t help that’s all he said about it. He gave me meds to get rid of the infection but 2 weeks later it came back. The man who gave me meds and did my cervix stuff was my Normal doctor. My gyno refuses to touch me even for check for my 6 month check up for more pre cancer. What can I do? The only doctors I can afford are not helping me and talking to me about what my own body is doing. How can solve me infection? By the way I’m 19 and this has all happened this year

Question: Something sticking in my mouth…I’m paranoid about cancer

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

I am an 18 year old female with no history of smoking. As far as I can think back I’ve had a little piece of skin connected next to my uvula. It was small and the exact same color as the skin around it. I never felt or noticed it until I coughed and realized it was sticking to the roof of my mouth. Just recently, I was coughing to clear mucus out of my throat and I felt like something was stuck back there so I looked back and the piece of skin had detached from the uvula and was hanging right next to it. Since then I feel it every time I swallow and it seems appears larger then it was before. It’s making me gag all the time and I am really concerned as to what it could be. The only other abnormality I’ve noticed is that I had one small tonsil stone, which I don’t often get. I contacted my GP, but should I be worried? I’m paranoid about cancer.

Question: Pain and stiffness in my hands…I have very limited resources

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

For some weeks I have been experiencing pain and stiffness in my hands in the morning. Eventually the pain in my right hand has almost gone away while my left hand has gotten much worse. The pain does not seem joint-related – being mostly in the palm when I try to close my fingers as in making a fist. I am unable to make a fist – the stiffness prevents my fingers from closing. The pain can be significant. After I move my fingers several times I can get improved movement but never full movement and the pain in the palm still remains. Taking Aleve eases the pain without movement but making a fist is still very painful. This pain is somewhat disturbing because I cannot imagine a cause that is easily resolved.

I am a 64 yo Male, obese, diabetic, and with mobility problems linked to a spinal MRI that resembles a train wreck (lumbar) I have had two rounds of epidural steroid injections that helped me regain the mobility I have now. I also experience frequent instances of numbness/tingling (going to sleep) in my left arm than could be related to the hand pain but I cannot make a connection.

Do I need to see a doctor and if I do what specialty should I choose first? I have very limited resources and only Medicare coverage.

Question: My boy friend and I have been diagnosed with Chlamydia..he is re infected?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

Back in April, my boy friend and I had been diagnosed with Chlamydia and both of us received one dose of Azithromycin. Prior to April my boyfriend did not experience any symptoms nor after taking the medication. Recently, in September – approximately 5 months after taking the dose, he has been feeling symptoms, I wanted to know what is the likelihood that the antibiotics did not cure him? He claims he has not had any sexual interaction with anyone else, is it possible that he re-infected himself in the genital area? (I read that the Chlamidya bacteria, although clears up in genitals can live in the gut?)

Symptoms:
Swelling on pubic bone, penile discharge, pain in one testicle, pain in ankles

Question: Excruciating bladder pain…doctors in a dead end?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

For years now I’ve been suffering from extreme bladder pain. I’ve had numerous tests including an ultrasound and camera into my bladder. It flares up every few months usually and it feels just like interstitial cystitis. But it’s not. Sometimes when it’s bad (like now) it bleeds when I urinate too. The doctors came to a dead end and stopped caring so now I just deal with it but it’s so excruciating and it means I’m unable to attend work when it’s bad. I’m only 22 and this has severely affected my life for years. I’m reluctant to have surgery unless they know the cause.

Question: I’m 15 year old have warts – skin tags on legs?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

I am a female and I’m wondering if I can get warts located in the inner leg near the female reproduction area (aka. not in the vagina but the top part of the inner leg that is connected to it.) I’m 15 and I haven’t had any sexual intercourse what so ever and I’ve already taken all of the HPV shots required from school. Its not long or has a ”Trunk” like skin tags do but I can move it around a bit…I have one on both opposite sides of that specific area which makes two in total. It has a round shape much like the letter ”o” and I don’t know exactly what they are…whether they’re skin tags or warts. I haven’t seen a doctor yet because I’m still trying to get answers myself online. I’ve had them for quite some time now I can’t remember how long but roughly less than two years and they haven’t grown. I haven’t had any male parts touching skin to skin contact down there so I doubt it’s caused by that. Please give me your best advice…thanks.

Question: Ear pain in my right ear

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

For basically my whole life I have had ear pain in my right ear when it’s cold outside. Recently my ear has been clogging to the point of my hearing becoming muffled on and off. It’s also a bit painful. This has been going on for roughly 2 months intermittently. I do have pain in my ear currently and the doctor at urgent care said there is no sign of infection. Any ideas what might be going on and how to get relief? I do have a mole on that ear but my doctor said it wasn’t anything to worry about a few years back.

Question: My mother has type 2 diabetes, congestive heart failure, doesn’t want to see a doctor?

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

My mother is 58 years old with type 2 diabetes (untreated), congestive heart failure, and has 3 staghorn kidney stones that are each approximately the size of a quarter. She won’t go to the doctor anymore and has been self-medicating for pain. Is there anything that can be done to help with the pain and associated issues without inflaming the heart failure?
