I had the same symptoms nausea %26 lots of pain. Is this a sign that the test results will come back saying it's my gallbladder?
Answer:
Not necessarily, the medicine you were injected with can cause you to feel sick and painful. For now make sure you have no fried foods, fatty foods, junk food and alcohol. This is going to help give your gallbladder A rest from having to process complicated foods. Try to eat as much fruit and vegetables as you possibly can. Use skinless chicken and turkey.
Mine came back that it was my gallbladder. That pain was the worst with that test. I thought I was having a heart attack. The person that was giving me the test, told me my gallbladder was not working. Good Luck

I had a cough and cold about 2 months ago and my voice is still crackling what should i do about it?
should i be worried, does this need looking into?
Answer:
ask the doctor for a chest x-ray. some chest infections are hard to shift. sounds like you had/have one and you need right course of a stronger antibiotic.
Id go to the doctors tbh
maybe you should drink some hot tea and visit the doctor.
My kids got hand, foot and mouth disease and then I lost my voice and was hoarse for months. Turned out I had got it from them but since I wash my hands more than a child only in my mouth. If your around a lot of kids beware they spread it around a lot. It looks like tiny red blisters or rash, but typically only on your hands feet and mouth hence the name. It itches really bad. I think it is the only time I have ever heard of anyone having a crackly voice that long.
Iam into all naturaopathic healing.My sister is studying to be a doctor she has shown me so much about natural healing. A natural antibiotic you can buy at the health food store is Collidal silver. Also Kyolic odorless garlic taken along with this boosts its effectiveness. Cleanse the bowels regularly. Yes that is what I said you need a all natural gentle colon cleanse. Our colon is about 70-75% of our immune system. You can buy one of these at the health food market also. I use green tea with lemon and raw honey right from the beehive for throat, cough and cold issues. Plus you can buy a variety of natural remedies in the NFS also. Im really not full of bolony these things really do work.
2 months is too long to have a cough and cold for. Go to your doctors asap.
Cough is caused by a number of ailments.
It can be treated by over the counter medicines

Answer:
Your nasal passage is connected to your throat.
It was draining down your nasal passage and out your mouth. I bet you was swallowing alot to.
I had 2 seizure-like experience. Having EEG & MRI done. What's the difference?
Anyone know anything about this? Waves of radiating pain go through my body along with the chills, muscle spasms, dizziness, throat feels like its closing, dry-heaving and vomiting. Any experience with this. I also had some bloodwork done.
Answer:
An eeg meaures the electrical activity of the brain. They place electrodes on the head.
An MRI gives a picture, somewhat like a CT scan but with better definition. It can detect anatomical landmarks and abnormalities.

I got stung or bit by something?
today i went fishing with my dad and brother and to get down to the river we had to walk through tall grass and my arm brushed up against some plant and it immediantly started to sting and itch, when we got to a clear spot i looked at my arm and it was red and there were white bumps all over the red spot my dad just gave me a peice of ice from the cooler to rub on it and it helped take the sting out a little . that was 5 hours ago and my arm still has a little bit of stinging feeling and the spot is still red but the white bumps went away.what type of plant would cause this? how can i get the stinging feeling to go away?
Answer:
Pioson Ivy, or Pioson oak. Pioson ivy is a tall plant with many branches. On each branch, There are five, smooth leaves. Pioson oak is different. It is a shorter plant with branches, and usually it has little prickles on the stem. On the branches, there are Three, jagged leaves. Poison oak usually comes in clusters, though it can be in a thick straight line.
The reason it stings is becuase you are scratching it raw. That, will not go away unless you dont scratch it long enough for it to heal over. After Scratching, immeidiently wash hands before touching any part of the body or it will spread. When redness reduces, if it is sore and painful, it might be infected. If so, Take a cloth that has been put in hot water, and press it against infected area for 5 minutes 2 daily, for 2 days. Also, keep rewetting the cloth. After you press it against your leg for 5 minutes, put antibiotic oinment on it.
Hope that helps!
I'd say poison ivy, poison oak, or poison sumac.
get over it baby
Poison oak or poison ivy
use Aveeno
Poison ivy, poison sumac, or golden rod. Just put some calamine lotion on it and it will be gone in a couple of days...
I think it was poison ivy or poison oak but I would have your doctor look at it if the stinging lasts more than 2 days.
The reaction caused by poison ivy, urushiol-induced contact dermatitis, is an allergic reaction. Some people simply do not have an allergy to urushiol. Around 15%[1] to 30%[2] of people are immune to the effects; however, sensitivity can develop over time with repeated exposure. For those who are affected by urushiol, it causes a very irritating rash. In extreme cases, corticosteroids can be needed to treat rashes and severe itching. The first symptom of contact is a severe itching of the skin that develops into reddish colored inflammation or non-colored bumps, and then blistering of the skin occurs. In severe cases, clear fluids ooze from open blistered sores. Once the urushiol poison has had contact with the skin, it is quickly bound to the skin. The poison can be washed off within a short time after contact, but once bound to the skin, it cannot be washed away.
The oozing fluids released by itching blisters do not spread the poison. The appearance of a spreading rash indicates that some areas received more of the poison and reacted sooner than other areas. The blisters and oozing result from blood vessels that develop gaps and leak fluid through the skin; if the skin is cooled, the vessels constrict and leak less.
Applying cool compresses on the affected areas is sometimes adequate for relief. There are several over-the-counter lotions and ointments for treating poison ivy irritation and itchiness. However, in contrast to most allergies, diphenhydramine has no effect on the rash but can provide some relief from the itching. It is taken orally and not applied as a topical cream.[7] There are several prescription medications that are administered for treatment; for example, hydroxyzine hydrochloride (sold as Atarax or Rezine) helps relieve itching and dry blisters. In extreme cases cortisone and prednisone pills or shots are used.
According to the FDA, in case of known contact, exposed skin needs to be cleaned within 10 minutes of contact with rubbing alcohol, then washed with water only (soap can move the urushiol to other parts of the body). After washing the contact area the FDA recommends taking a shower with soap and warm water. When tools and clothing come into contact with the oil, the use of gloves can prevent contact between any oil and the skin. Tools and other objects that have had contact with the oil are cleaned with rubbing alcohol and water.[8]
It may have poison oak or ivy. Or possibly a bite.
What you need to do is take an antihistamine. Dont use any creams or lotions of any kind as it may irritate it more.
Clean the areas affected with lukewarm water and then take an oatmeal bath (Aveeno makes one).
Its best to still go see a doctor because you will need to be prescribed a topical ointment.
I seriously doubt it is poison ivy, oak or sumac. These do NOT appear instantly but usually take about 24 hours to appear. You also do not get the rash the first time you come into contact with the plant, it is the second time after you have developed antibodies. The fluid that oozes from poison ivy etc is not from the blood vessels, it is lymph fluid from the lymphatic system just like the fluid found in a blister. Being a country girl and a paramedic I have a pretty good idea you got into a patch of nettles, a pokey bush that causes pain, itching and a rash. Do NOt use calamine, it will overdry and draw the skin making the rash worse. You can, however, take an antihistamine for the itch.

I got my wisdom teeth removed...?
i just got my wisdom teeth removed about 4 hours ago and it hurts like hell! my face has swelled up to the size of like a watermelon.it feels like my jaw is broken and i cant even speak a word. how long till the swelling goes away? how long until it heals? how long until the pain goes away? should i call my dentist if it still hurts tomorrow? i really want to eat but i cant even close or open my mouth. i cant drink anything without it coming out of my mouth. what do i do?
Answer:
Relax. Just take those pain meds they gave you. And try to sleep. Best thing for the first day. Mine were not that deep so I was good to go the next day. I went to work 2 days after they took them out. Felt great...looked like a chipmunk though. lol. You will not be able to open you mouth all the way for a week! Just keep opening it as much as you can a couple times a day.when the pain stops that is. ICE use ice...it will bring down the swelling and helps the pain to go away in that area. Just make sure that you change the stuff they put in your mouth and don't spit; it will open the cuts and the bleeding will start again. Speaking of which, don't drink the blood and the yellow stuff. It will make you sick. But all that sounds like how I felt after four hours. Not a fun time, but it will pass. Good luck.
Eat cold stufff
Take the pain pills they should have given you and you should be fine by Monday morning. You may still have a dull ache then but you will be fine by Monday.
Did they give you any drugs for pain? If not, call them right now and get something that will pretty much just make you want to sleep for a couple days-- being unconscious is much better than being miserable.
For now use pain killers and it should be better by tomorrow
you should take a pain killer and try to go to sleep thats what i did when I got four teeth pulled i know it isn't the same but my friend got hers removed and she did the same thing but it hurt her for alomost 2 weeks.
you will feel it for a few days. Whatever you do don't drink out of a straw...you can dislodge the clots and form dry sockets...if you think you are in pain now a dry socket will be the end of you
you did not say if you had stitches or not. you should have mild to moderate pain after extractions and the dds should have given you pain meds. cold drinks and soft foods like icecream, yogurt, eggs, soup...not hot!!! if you have no stitches anything hot could dislove the blood clot, also no smoking or drinking through a straw, no persing your lips. the clot forms on the top of the site and needs to heal. you will be fine. rest and all the cold drinks will help you. good luck to you
You should call your dentist did they give you any discharge instructions? Did they give you anything for pain? I know when my sister-in laws jaw was broken she use to get baby food (fruit) and drink it through a straw, but that would probably hurt you too. Hope you feel better but you need to call the dentist
1] take a pain killer every 8 hours for the next two days. If the doc didn't give you one, call him and take a motrin while you are waiting.Tell him how big your face is - like, cheeks wider than
your forehead?
2] wrap some frozen veggies on a ziploc bag, cover with a paper towel, and ice your face! 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off, for the next two days.
3] Don't use a straw! Use a teaspoon to eat tiny amounts of liquids or soft solids - ice cream, pudding, mashed potatoes,
pureed veg or meat [ nothing with chunks ].
P.S. my face did the same thing - I couldn't even get a shirt over my head, and looked like I had been in a terrible car accident. I lost ten pounds in two weeks.

I got glasses!! first time i realised im getting old!!?
never needed glasses in my life and i got away with it for a long time considering the rest of the family including my children, have had them most of there lives...
So the kids i'v tried to teach how to use them and to wear them cause thats wot the doc has told them to do...
Now its my turn ... oh my god no wonder they gave me such a hard time over not wanting to wear theres. this is really hard . need them for PC and reading ... and yes i can see the keyboard an screen better...
But how long dose it take before ya stop looking over/under them instead of through them?
its so confusing!!
Answer:
Oh pet, I've had to wear them since being 18 months old and I was 50 last month! It won't take too long before you get used to them though. Then again, I had to get bifocals 3 years ago and I still get into a mess with them, my family rock with laughter when they see me try to read something cos instead of moving my head I lift the paper/book up and down!
welcome to the Zimmers club
There is no problem !!
Thinkers and authors put their glasses without any confusion!
Are you better than them?
I was in my late forties when i realised i needed glasses for reading now at fifty one i wouldn't be able to read without them its the first sign of getting older
I only need them for reading .Now when i need them i just put them on vanity has gone out the window
I gather you need them for close work--it will like that until you need specs for long distance too.I use reading specs too I wear them on my head until I am completly finished using them --give it a try.good luck.in life you can always find a easy way around things.
Give it a few days and you will start to get used to them.
The worst is when you have bifocals, it is so difficult at first ,you keep looking through the reading part when you are walking, it throws you off balance. I fell down a flight of stairs in a store, felt really stupid.
Good luck with them !
old?
nowadays, kids as young as 10 and below already have to wear glasses..
join the crowd... when I hit mid 40s I needed them and my kids were taking bets with each other wether I needed bifocals or not. DR said I should but I could get away with just "reading" glassed for now.. since then I wish I had gotten the bifocals.
Guess next year when I have them checked again, I'll be getting them.
it is confusing at first, but before you know it you will get used to them. some people may take a week, some even longer.
i was in denial for a long time, before i got used to them.
i don't recommend laser eye surgery, because vision keep changing with age, but it is an option in some cases, and you could try contacts lenses too but contacts sometimes are harder to put on and take off until you get used to it. Good luck.
It took me years to get properly accustomed to specs; needed them first for reading then had to accept that my distance vision was deteriorating. Had 2 pairs - one for reading, one for driving, etc. What a pain!
When I needed a new prescription I decided to push out the proverbial boat and went for varifocals which were also photochromic (having spent that much I just had to wear them!). It was the photochromic bit which made it easy - I didn't have to bother with sun specs any more - no clip ons to fuss with, and I could continue to read in bright light with my magnified "sun specs".
Just bear with it, you will get to the point where it is automatic to reach for the double-glazing as soon as you've pulled the T-shirt or sweater over your head.

I got bit by a spider last night. i think?
i woke up with 2 red marks on my thigh. they look like pimples but bigger, (actually this was 2 nights ago) so today it was oozy like a pimple, and i popped it. and icky stuff came out, and it was like a pimple but it was grosser. LOL. my point is should i be worried? oh and i sleep in the nude so good thing he didnt bite nowhere else.
Answer:
It sounds to me like you got bit by a brown recluse. Get to a doctor right away or go to your ER. I got bit by one last summer. I didn't know it at the time ( I didn't feel it bite). I thought it was a pimple at first. It started turning red around it. I waited about a week before I had it checked. They had to lance it and pack it with gauze. I had to go back to be rechecked and to have gauze removed. They had packed an inch of gauze in the hole, an inch doesn't sound like much but when it is pulled out of a hole in your skin it sure feels like a lot. It HURT! So get it checked right away. Good luck.

I got a hickey last night and i need to get rid of it fast.Any answers?
Answer:
Why do you need to get rid of it, bad girl? Ha ha ha. I have a method, but you aren't going to belive it, because I didn't either, but it truly works, although it's a bit time consuming.
Take a comb, and comb it out. Yes, you read that right. Take a little comb, and do little strokes over the hickey, and eventually, it will disappear.
I didn't believe it either, but someone taught me it, and honestly, it worked! Like I said though, it is a bit time consuiming, especially depending on how big and how dark it is!
BesT WisheS!
if on neck wear tshirt with collar and pull up the collar
try putting witch hazel on it. it's available at any drug store or where they sell rubbing alcohol, etc.
Sorry, no way to get rid of it. The blood has risen to the top layers of skin. All you can do is cover it with makeup. I have heard that you can apply ice, but I honestly don't think it will work. Good Luck, and next time, if there is one, make sure it is out of view.
Place a scalding hot rag on it and it will disapate the bruise.
I like the comb idea, let us know if it worked...
i'm not tring to be mean but maybe you need to
push them away or just think befor you do.
I got a COLD! today is thur4-24 and my prom is on the 26, i need help asap?
i have a runny nose and a minor cough. ive been drink tons of water, GNC megaman pills, emergen-c, and zinc pills. anyone kno any thing that will get rid of it quickly before my prom?
Answer:
Sleep a lot. Drink lots of OJ.
Take Cold-Eze during the day and NyQuil at night.
Vitamin C, fluids, rest.... just rest rest rest...
and the whole sweating it out thing does not work... in some cases it may make it worse...
I like the Emergen C stuff... and the Airborne stuff
Chicken Soup....
and actually hun, it's 5-24 :) Good Luck!!
OH, and if you still have it by prom.. take some fun cold meds like Coricidin (sp?) or Nyquil.. it's kinda like being drunk :P
.
Vitamin C.timed release, one in the morning, one at night
Turn on the heat - sweat it out.
take flu capsules, such as Beechams flu capsules, they get rid of coughs and runny noses.
honey and milk also helps.
take airborne (you can get it at any grocery store). get lots of sleep. like, so much that your family thinks you're in a coma. eat a lot of chicken noodle soup.
Smoking A S S loads of pot usually works for me. Just get wasted before the prom anyway and you wont even know.
It sounds like you are definitely getting enough nutrients, so the only thing I can recommend beyond that is getting lots of sleep. Take a nap, or go to bed extra early tonight.
Since you still have tomorrow to recover, you should be almost completely over it by time for the prom.
Also, don't stress about prom too much, because stress weakens the immune system!
Good luck.
go to your local drug store and buy some "Air-Born" It works wonders to help get over a cold fast.
take medicine
That and Cold-Eaze. That stuff works miracles.
hey well let me tell you something boy prom which yo and you better go even though ur sick but just don't mack on her thats sik when ur sikc later fool and good luck which yo girl and DON'T MACK ON HER
a cold is a virus. Rhinovirus and there is no cure for a virus, it has to run its course, you can only treat symptoms and boost your immune so it can fight it better. I would say with everything you're taking.It just has to run its course. You could also try Echinecea. its a herb that boosts your immune system. Normally what I do is take 1 golden seal tablet, and then the next day take a echenecia - follow it with 1 echenecea tablet once a day for 4 days.
Take some nyquil and go to prom. It'll be cheaper than buying booze and you'll have a way better time.
take Zicam
My husband always uses Zicam, over the counter, nasal swabs and his cold is gone in a day or two. The only side effect he has had is that his sense of taste is a little off for a few days (things don't taste as good to him) but the cold symptoms are gone!
you mean 5/24/07 ? Lots of vitamin C. Lots of water. Rest as much as you can too! My family swears by Echinacea too. Good luck!

I get the hickups all the time and they are pretty painful and last a while when I have them?
Also after I eat It feels like I have alot of air in my chest...is this normal?
Answer:
I usually don't get the pain with the hickups, but a good way to cure the hickups and it always works for me is to drink water while holding your nose. If you do that, your hickups will go away. Hope you feel better.
You should go to a doctor. In my area there was a girl who has hiccups that lasted 2 weeks! NO JOKE!

Does anybody else get scared of being sick it effects there life? i cant even go grocery shoppin because i dont like touching trollies and touching dirty sheleves! please if you have any advice would be much apercaited i just wanna try and move on but seem impossible!!
Answer:
First up I am not qualified to answer your question, but i will say that your doctors are wrong in telling you that you have to get over this yourself.
You nead proffessional help, you have a problem that can be treated but only by some one who knows what they are doing.
I had a friend years ago, his mother had similar problems as you, after counciling and correct diagnosis from a specialist, she started to live a normal life again.
Go see a psycologist and see if they can be of assistance.
I wish you well, and hope you get better.
I would have to say that you're just as likely to catch something in the air as you are from touching something. I know there are names for what you are experiencing though (fear of germs), some people never get past it while other's may. The only thing you can do to get over a fear is to confront it head on. Try taking your boyfriend (or another friend) with you shopping, or whereever you're going, to help keep your mind off of it. It's mind over matter and if you constantly believe these thing's are going to make you sick, they will. Not that THEY will, but you will blame it on what YOU think is making you sick. (does that make sense?).
Guess you could say it's mind over matter... if you don't mind, then it doesn't matter. Kind of like when someone yawns and it makes you instantly yawn, that's mind over matter. Not that you had to yawn, but seeing someone else do it makes you feel the need to do it also.

Answer:
You should take a 5-10 minute break for every hour yo spend in front of the computer.. try using a tinted screen filter on the outside of you monitor to cut down the glare..Do you need glasses? If this continues, see an eye doctor...
Don't watch as long. If it keeps happening go see a doctor.

I get really cold and really tired after I eat, about a half hour after...what could this mean?
Answer:
Have your Doctor order bloodwork on you, You may have diabetes/pre-diabetes.
I likewise get very tired after I eat, but not cold. My problems stem from sugar/glucose issues.
you might be allergic to some of the common ingredient or to the smell.
Either pre-diabetes or way too many carbs
...well some professionals say that that is a sign of addiction (like...if you stop smoking, drinking..) do you eat the same kind of food?? when you eat does the pain go away?? if so, you could be addicted to the food. your body may have adapted to the food and not feel right without it. :-)
i just think your eating TOO much!! so lighten up enjoy that full but not stuffed feel more.
Sounds like gall stones to me. Go get it checked, they can become impacted and thats BAD.
You could also have a blockage so please go to the Dr.

I Get really bad hiccups how do u get rid of them!?
I get realy bad hiccups and it is realy embaressing so does anyone have any ideas to get rid of them!
Answer:
sit down
take a sip of water and fill your mouth and hold it
put your head between your legs
swallow the water
and don't sit up till the water has gone down
works every time
swallow six times without breathing or hiccuping, its kinda difficult especially if your mouth is dry, but it works every single time. If you're lucky you might get away with 5, give it a try :)
I found that chugging soda is the only thing that makes them stop, you have to quickly chug enough to make you burp.
Once you burp they stop.
A spoonful of sugar. I'm not kidding!
BOO!

I get jittery when flying..which prescription meds can i ask from a doctor?
every few years i have to do a return trip flight of 24 hours (12 hours each). the whole time i feel paranoid, and super sensitive. the noise, and all the people (espcially when someone so much as taps my chair) just bombard me, and i can't even fall asleep. so i just sit there for 12 hours going "i want to die", and telling off the kid that keeps bumping my chair.
is there any prescription medication that i can ask my doctor as just a one off thing to sedate me when flying?
p.s: i can't afford anythig but economy class, so no suggestions on upgrading thanks.
Answer:
Valium, Xanax, Klonipin...but if you want something natural that will help, try some valerian root one day. It calms your nerves, and makes you very sleepy.
I feel the same way on a plane. My problem is I'm very emetophobic and always afraid someone on the plane might have motion sickness and throw up. I am just on edge the entire time and constantly scanning my surroundings to make sure nobody is about to throw up. This is what I do to help. I take Dramamine before a flight. It's a motion sickness medicine that relaxes you and makes you sleepy. Sometimes I'll nap on the plane because of the Dramanine. I also like to listen to the headphones on my Ipod to drown out all of the sounds around me. Maybe you could try these things.
My friend swears by Xanax. Ask your doctor for a Rx!

I get horrible migranes?
and I here whompa whompa in my ears what is this and what kids of doctor should I see
Answer:
STOP PLAYING PACMAN!
haha j/k, see a neurologist.
Tell that cute little munchkin to keep it down!
i used to be like dat. the light and the sound was hurtin my eyes and ears. i didnt know wat to do. a advil helped me a little.
I like salad
You need a headache team..include an ENT for your ears, and a neourologist to figure out the migraine triggers.
The National Headache Foundation site might be of interest to you as well. I put the link to their excellent website below for you.
Good luck to you.
I get them too. Go see a neurologist. The doctor should ask you about your medical history and should do all sorts of tests. You will probably be put on different medications until you find something that works. If you get chronic migraines, as opposed to occasional migraines, then you will probably be put on some sort of regular medication, and don't be surprised of some of the painkillers don't work right away.
Good luck.
Go see a neurologist. My mum and I both see one b/c we have chronic migranes. They can prescribe medicine and give you suggestions to help you avoid your triggers. I cannot drink caffeine or take any decongestants. Caffeine is a very common trigger, so try avoiding that for a while (like a month or two) and see if it gets any better.
You got to go and see a family doctor. After diagnosing you he will be able to refer to a specialist.

I get frustraited with my tooth today, its been hurt$ for day's, I don't know what to do?
And, I have big problem with medical insurance. I don't know what to do.
Answer:
Do you know why your tooth is hurting? If it is just that you have sensitive teeth, then use a toothpaste that is designed for helping people with sensitive teeth - here (Australia) we have one called sensodyne that helps.
If there is decay, you do really need to see a dentist. Free dental appointments are available at dental teaching colleges, but it means you are seen by a student (supervised by a qualified dentist). Some dentists allow you to pay in installments (I have found one who does that!)
In the meantime, clove oil, applied with a cotton bud, can help the pain. You need to apply it with a cotton bud because it is quite anaesthetic, and will cause numbness on the parts of your mouth it is in contact with. Clove oil is very antibacterial too, it contains a substance called eugenol, which is a phenol used in dental amalgams as an antibacterial.
I hope this helps, I know how debilitating tooth pain can be.
All the best.
You find a dentist that will let you make payments ,screw the insurance companies.
Go to a Dental Office. If nothing else can be afforded you can have it extracted for now. That doesn't cost much. You can always get a crown on it later. Or, go to the ER, they can't make you pay up front, it may be just an infection and they can give you antibiotics and pain meds. Good luck. Just went through this with son.
you need a powerful pain medicine like a 800 Motrin .if you have swelling in your gum clean your mouth with peroxide
See a dentist or pull it yourself. More than likely it will not get better on it's own. It could progress into a nasty infection. Then you've got BIG problems.
Check the univercitys ask if they have a dental college... My wife saves about a third with students and very happy.

I get dizzy and short of breath when I stand up from...?
A sitting or laying down position. If I stand up suddenly My whole head spins and my heart races and I get short of breath but goes away after about 30 seconds.
I have been eating normal lately, like 3 meals a day with snacks...so lack of food can't be the problem.
Any suggestions on why this is happening...? Anyone else have it happen to them...? If so, what did you do about it...?
Thanks
Answer:
before getting up from sitting or lying down always do mini exercises . When sitting do stretches and flap your arms. when lying down do the bicycle and lightly massage your arms and legs. you can shrug your shoulders each position too.
this is a very common problem and is usually caused by blood pressure dropping. Try sitting for a minute before you stand up and stand up slowly it should help.
That happens to me on average only like 3 or 4 times a year and usualy only when I am sick and still weak ,but it is exactly what you derscribed.I would just try to stand up more slowly.
Perhaps you should see a doctor about this if it happens every time.
Assuming your not pregnant it sounds like you either have low blood pressure or your blood may be too thin. I forget the medical term for thin blood but my ex wife had the same problem.
This always happens to me!! Its so odd but i usually stand still, hold on to something and try breath normally sorry but i don't no what it is!!
This happens to me a lot. I just have to get up slowly. Sometimes I just have to sit back down. I'm not sure exactly what causes it, but someone told me it was from low blood pressure which would make sense because my blood pressure is always low.

I get a mild stomach ache every morning and sometimes a bit longer?
This has been going on for several weeks -
I've gotten up in the middle of the night several times in the past %26 have it then too. I feel like I'm always taking Alka Seltzer or Tums (which often doesn't help).
And I'm definitly not pregnant.
Answer:
Maybe you have IBS or a gastrointestinal thing. You should probably see your doc since taking those OTC things aren't good for long periods of time.
get checked
If it is not because you ate late or didn't eat late enough the night before, have your doctor check it out, especially since self-diagnosis and treatment isn't working.
Sounds like you have a digestive problem. Maybe you also eat to soon to going to bed.
You should always eat 3 hours at least before.
Try eating a light dinner like a small salad, yogurt or an apple.
Other since I am a health nut try getting papaya tablets they are for digestion.
Go to a doctor and get a diagnostic work up which might include an endoscopy. You may need the little purple pill. Or is it your nerves? Is something bothering you. Or are you allergic to something you are eating? Trial and error is the name of the game.
You might be hungry. Drink a little milk before going to bed,
or eat some crackers.
Get it checked and don't accept any lame syndrome diagnosis from the doctors--in my experience and some of my dead friends they are not very good in diagnosing digestive problems until its to late
People will suggest all manner of solutions but please go see your GP as soon as possible and get a true diagnosis. You may have an underlying problem, which if not treated will get worse and who knows how bad your quality of life may be in the future.
Go please and see your GP ASAP!
Best wishes, Mike.
Do you eat before bed at night? I always wake up with a stomach ache when I eat within an hour before I go to bed...
It sounds like you could have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), but it could also be eating to late, allergy to food, stress about something. If you go see a doctor then they will run different kind of tests to eliminate different possiblilities...good luck
take aloe vera juice, its the bees knees
Hello. I was having the same problem, but for months. 3-4 Alka's a week was about average. Waking up at night feeling like there was a fire inside. Wife "convinced me" to go to a doc last week.
First, the Alka S., when taken so many times in such short periods, only makes matters worst. Next week I go for an endoscopy, but for the time being, the doc gave me Protonix.
Now I sleep all night and don't get pain. But the truth is, I need a better diet.
So stop taking Alka, and go to a specialist, your quality of life will immediately improve.
drinking atleast 2litres of water daily may solve your problem
It sounds to me you could have IBS or something similar, go and get it checked out.
I've gotten up in the middle of the night several times in the past %26 have it then too. I feel like I'm always taking Alka Seltzer or Tums (which often doesn't help).
And I'm definitly not pregnant.
Answer:
Maybe you have IBS or a gastrointestinal thing. You should probably see your doc since taking those OTC things aren't good for long periods of time.
get checked
If it is not because you ate late or didn't eat late enough the night before, have your doctor check it out, especially since self-diagnosis and treatment isn't working.
Sounds like you have a digestive problem. Maybe you also eat to soon to going to bed.
You should always eat 3 hours at least before.
Try eating a light dinner like a small salad, yogurt or an apple.
Other since I am a health nut try getting papaya tablets they are for digestion.
Go to a doctor and get a diagnostic work up which might include an endoscopy. You may need the little purple pill. Or is it your nerves? Is something bothering you. Or are you allergic to something you are eating? Trial and error is the name of the game.
You might be hungry. Drink a little milk before going to bed,
or eat some crackers.
Get it checked and don't accept any lame syndrome diagnosis from the doctors--in my experience and some of my dead friends they are not very good in diagnosing digestive problems until its to late
People will suggest all manner of solutions but please go see your GP as soon as possible and get a true diagnosis. You may have an underlying problem, which if not treated will get worse and who knows how bad your quality of life may be in the future.
Go please and see your GP ASAP!
Best wishes, Mike.
Do you eat before bed at night? I always wake up with a stomach ache when I eat within an hour before I go to bed...
It sounds like you could have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), but it could also be eating to late, allergy to food, stress about something. If you go see a doctor then they will run different kind of tests to eliminate different possiblilities...good luck
take aloe vera juice, its the bees knees
Hello. I was having the same problem, but for months. 3-4 Alka's a week was about average. Waking up at night feeling like there was a fire inside. Wife "convinced me" to go to a doc last week.
First, the Alka S., when taken so many times in such short periods, only makes matters worst. Next week I go for an endoscopy, but for the time being, the doc gave me Protonix.
Now I sleep all night and don't get pain. But the truth is, I need a better diet.
So stop taking Alka, and go to a specialist, your quality of life will immediately improve.

I frequently keep passing out for mere seconds at a time during my studying...?
I just randomly pass out, most of the time my eyes are still open when it happens, and it usually happens when I'm studying by my own will. It happens a lot less often, yet still a lot, when I'm studying against my will. Most of the time, I even dream while I'm passed out, usually seeing words in my books that aren't really there, and when I regain consciousness, I at most remember half of what I dreamt. It can't be boredom, because I am quite interested in what I'm reading, and I was not noticeably tired at the time. Others have noticed me twitching slightly while I regain consciousness, so it gets a little embarrassing, but I am more concerned about getting my studying done, and to a slightly lesser degree, my health. Anyone got any ideas?
Answer:
Get regular sleeping and waking hours, regardless of whether you 'feel' sleepy.
Also eat small, frequent meals that are well balanced and high in fiber and protein, low in sugars, simple carbs and fat. Eat 4 to 6 times a day. This will stabilize your blood sugar, and stop you from passing out.
Good luck with your studies!
You need to get to a cardiologist. When you pass out it means your heart isn't getting enough blood to your brain. This could be a sign of dangerous, yet treatable, condition.
Could it be petite-maul seizures? Might want to get checked out for epilepsy. I had lots of seizures while in grade school. I found out later that it was related to my estranged father's epilepsy. Sometimes it can grow into full fledged epilepsy in your middle 20's or, in my case, bypass ya altogether. Good to see your doc about it, though.
I'm not trying to scare you but it kinda sounds like epilepsy. Go to your regular doctor and ask him to refer you to neuro-doctor so they can give you the proper diagnosis.
Time to see a physician to evaluate what the problem is.
Are you getting enough sleep?!?!?! Even if you're not "feeling" tired, your body could be exausted, especially if you've been drinking a lot of caffeine (you may not feel tired even if you are.)
It sounds like you're having micro-sleeps. Generally when you faint you don't dream and don't realize you've fainted unless you're laying on the floor or have fallen.
Micro-sleeps occur when you're so sleep deprived that you kind of nod off. It happens a lot when people drive. Your eyes don't always shut during these episodes.
If you sit hunched over while studying or study for long periods of time, your blood may not be flowing to all of the places it needs to be. Passing out generally occurs when the brain is not getting enought oxygen. Be sure to shift the postion you are sitting in often. If you are studying for long periods of time, get up and walk around for a minute or so. Make sure you've eaten and are hydrated. This could end up to be your problem. If it continues or gets worse, then definately get in touch with your doctor. It could be more serious than you think. But first try moving around and letting the blood flow and allowing oxygen to get where it needs to go.

I fractured my ankle 4/14/07, i know i am dealing with a sprain now...but do i still need to get an MRI?
I barely started walking on my ankle this sunday, the 20th. I've been wearing a fracture boot, and it hurts a little but not too bad. My doc said that I should still get an MRI, if I am healing well.....so far, do i still need to have one after a month and half of breaking? wouldn't it have made sense to get it as soon as i broke it. I also don't have any insurance, so an MRI...is very expensive. I just don't know...i feel like im healing fine, so if i decide to get the MRI, then thats about 1500 out of my pocket...i don't even make that in a month. Help please!
Answer:
Tell bozo doctor to pay for it then. More info is needed to know what kind of fracture you have. MR is going to tell if the ligs were torn. You can shop around for mri prices letting them know you have no insurance. Mine was about $600
No it is not needed but if the ankle is still a problem after a few months it may be worth it.
At this point in time there would be no need to get a MRI for the break. Only to check the condition of ligaments. mri if for soft tissue not bone.
If I were you I would take an MRI...listen to your doctor or get a SECOND opinion. You would still need it because they would have to look at the bones and tissues...I know it is a sacrifice, but it is better to do it now and prevent something than regret it later...you can do it :)

I found a yellow round pill in my son's room, what is it?
Maybe someone can tell me what it is, or where i can find out what it is, it has a 40 on one side and E705 on the other.
Answer:
generic Oxycontin - 40mg
http://www.pharmer.org/imprints/narcotic...
here's a photo:
http://www.pharmer.org/node/3082...
Speed.
I took one of those last week. Its a pain killer...like hydrocodone...without the asprin.
While I can't give you the answer, you can get a book called the PDR (Physicians Desk Reference) at the library (usually in the refrence section). It has a list and picture of every drug made in the US. It usually also has the text of the insert (use, advisories, etc).
You can also call your family Dr and if they are nice they will look it up in the PDR they have in the office.
There are a lot of pills out there, unless you have a picture theres really no way you can get a correct answer.
The simple way to find out is to ask him. Then ask him what is he doing with it..
You can either take it to your doctor or your local chemist/pharmacist and show it to them and ask them what it is. If you don't want to explain to them where you found it just say it was on the footpath outside your home or something like that.
oxycodone
Generic Oxycontin. Kids use it to get high. Usually they will crush it up into a fine powder and snort it. Have a serious talk with him -- it can be very dangerous.
Give 'em a little break. Don't throw 'em out the window anytime soon. Actually, don't let him know you found the pill. Give 'em some respect, ya know. Also, you could...very, very very inconspicuosly bring up drugs and alcohol to him and all your kids if you have more. (Which would make it more inconspicuous)
Now, I guess that's kinda disrespect to. But I haven't got that far, yet, so...

I found a tick in my hair last nite, I know it bit me but I pulled him off and he was still alive should I be?
worried about Lyme's? I did save the tick in case I get sick within the next 3 days.
Answer:
Anytime you are bitten by a tick you CAN get it.. keep checking for a small sort of greenish tint to the skin in that area (I know it's difficult under the hair).. one thing though.. are you sure you got the entire tick? I've seen it with dogs where you pull it off but part of the head is still under the skin.. and it will keep burrowing until it is taken out.. one of the reasons you generally do something like heat it or freeze it to make it pull itself out first.. You might just want to have someone else look at it carefully for you..
well, that's mostly carried in the deertick, which is common. so you can google image deertick and compare. there have been many more ticks this year so far. but only a small percentage carrie Lyme disease. if you are found to have Lyme disease, you can treat it and it will almost certainly go away unless gone unnoticed for too long. so do not be too worried, ticks biting you is not the end of the world.
If your very concerned take tick to your local ER or doc deer ticks are very tiny smaller than inside circle of the # 6 on most typewritters. Dog ticks can be seen very clearly with the eye. I live in the woods and see the critters often. The net will show you pics to compare but a medical person will put your mind at ease.

I found a scab in my ear canal. Whats the deal?
I was itching in my ear, and I felt something poke me. Curious, I dug arround some more and pulled out what looks like a crystal like scab. This has happened before, but I didnt say anything to anybody. It's about the size of the tip of a headphone plug, and is hard, but can be crushed with a finger nail.
Heres a pic
http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/6070/...
Answer:
i have the same problem. it could be that a while ago u scratched the inside of your ear and its bleeding. if u pick the scab after it grows back again, there is a chance that it will grow back even bigger and block ur whole ear canal. and u dont want that. but i think you should see an ENT or an ear specialist, and have them clean out the ear. Granted im only 12, but trust me, u dont want any worse problems. just trust me. and i have had 5 sugeries on my ear so i kinda know about this stuff. but yeah, go see a docter. for me when i had an even bigger one, they removed it, and then put some type of meds in there and a cotton ball to stop the bleeding, and it worked! OMG! dont use a q-tip! it only pushes all the junk farther back and can cause an infection. see a doctor.
deff. don't wanna be grossed out by pics. so not clicking. But theres a good chance, that from digging around in your ears, you could have scratched yourself. Use q-tips, and don't probe your fingers in there anymore.
If you are not an adult--I think you should tell your parents and keep the object you got out of your ear to show them. If you are an adult--I would see a doctor. Expecially since this is not the first time it has happened. Take it with you when you do go to the doctor. Might be some sort of drainage from the ear. Never hear of such happening, but everyone is different. Better to be safe than sorry. Good Luck.

www.drugs.com has a pill identifier. Use that.
try calling a pharmisist. they should help
take it 2 a doctor..
Call the Poision Control. Even pharmacists call them at times to identify a pill. It doesn't have to be an emergency situation to call them.
I have reliably used the following site repetatively, my brother in-law was a druggy before he died so we checked a lot of pills over the years.

Once you have narrowed down possible pills search for their images to be sure.
Good luck.

I found a lump under my armpit does anybody know what it is?
It is about the size of a pea, and is sort of hard. It's under my skin, and hurts a little bit when I touch it.
Answer:
Swollen lymph node, perhaps.
could be in grown hair or a cyst.
I don't really know but one thing I'm sure when I had a Fibrodaunomata on my left breast, My doctor check it under my armpits if there is any lumps too.
I found a lump on my breast long ago when I was taking my shower and tried to examine myself by raising one arm and my other arm massage it clockwise with my fingertips. I was surprised when I felt a little lump on my left breast. I went to the doctor right away and she did an exam like I did followed by a mammogram. It turn out to be a Fibrodanaumata. Luckily it's not fatal or any serious like that but I got an operation to get rid of that. One thing I remember is that she did a check up under my armpit if there is any growth or any lump on it. So I would suggest for you to do your check up to the doctor and do a mammogram. It doesn't hurt to be alarmed for your safety.

I find it sad that US Health Care only helps the rich and kills the poor am I right or what?
In the US if you are rich, a celebrity, sports star or just flat out rich you can get better health care than if u were poor or struggling with money. The rich get super treatment with state of the art hospital care, drugs that actually work and taken care of perfectly. while the lower classes and poor have to fill out paper work before they get treatment while they are in pain! Get tossed all kinds of drugs as if they were dummies. Get different and uneducated advice from the uneducated doctors who are only in it for the money and social status. What a sad state of affairs. Cant wait to see Micheal Moores new film "Sicko" that describes the horrors of the US Health Care system that fails the working class and poor but feeds the rich with all the luxuries fit for only the wealthy.
Answer:
ABSOLUTELY TRUE NIKE!!!! Its only for the rich and upper white class. They came and wiped out the native peoples and enslaved the black man and even their own but they called them "white servants" go back to europe we dont want u here and never wanted u here. yay!!!
No, you just whine too much... ByeDr.com is meant to be about people wanting answers to questions, not people getting on their soapbox about how good or bad their health care systems are. Go get a job then you could afford health insurance. And stop whining.
No, you are incorrect.
Once someone arrives at a hospital, they are admitted regardless of ability to pay or not. That's why so many hospitals, particulary those in low-income areas, are at risk of going under. If it was the way you said, they would be able to get rid of poorer people who couldn't afford health care and just let them die.
Perhaps people with more money and better policies have better access to specialists, etc. But at a time when Moore is putting out this "documentary", many in Britain are wondering if they should turn to a private system. What does that tell you?
Nike,
I might agree with you if anything that you said was factual. "Uneducated advice from uneducated doctors" - which country are you describing? It isn't this one! I am nowhere near wealthy and I have received tremendous health care for years now. No doctor/nurse has "tossed me all sorts of drugs as if I were a dummy". I have been in pain at the time of hospital admittance and I did not "have to fill out paper work before I got treatment while I was in pain". Absurd! Questions on the medicine you take? Important question? Of course. Who is your doctor? Important question? Yes. Do you have insurance? Important if you have insurance but your company doesn't cover some types of treatment - they will use alternatives. Don't say that they will toss you in the street if you don't have insurance - never happen in this country!Please, don't be thick - we have a tremendous system. And yes, the wealthy, also citizens and children of God, get coverage for hospital care. Should we kill them because they are wealthy? Would that satisfy you? Please, you are smarter than that and can do much better.
Well, the poor do not receive the quality health care the wealthier people receive. My ex wife did a residency in pediatrics and most of her patients were on Medicaid. The only healthcare that her patients were able to afford was seeing an intern, which was fresh out of medical school and haven't really gotten a chance to get their feet wet. Also, my ex told me that the hospital (which was affiliated with a university) tried to schedule only 20 minute appointments for the patients; for the hospital to increase revenue. So, in essence, she felt like she was never able to give a full and accurate diagnosis because of time constraints imposed by the hospital. If she did, she would fall behind on her recommended number of patients a day and be reprimanded.
It is a self perpetuating problem that will never be solved:
(1)Better quality healthcare service (longer time spent per patient) = less revenue, which means, shareholders, owners and administration of the facility are unhappy. Doctors are happy in treating and preventing illnesses.
(2)Poor quality healthcare service (quicker patient turnover times) = more revenue, which means shareholders, owners and administration are happy. Doctors feel like they aren't making as much of a difference in the health of the patient. Doctors are disappointed.
Unfortunately, you can't make everyone happy.

I have been in pain at the time of hospital admittance and I did not "have to fill out paper work before I got treatment while I was in pain". Absurd! Questions on the medicine you take? Important question? Of course. Who is your doctor? Important question? Yes. Do you have insurance? Important if you have insurance but your company doesn't cover some types of treatment - they will use alternatives. Don't say that they will toss you in the street if you don't have insurance - never happen in this country!Please, don't be thick - we have a tremendous system. And yes, the wealthy, also citizens and children of God, get coverage for hospital care. Should we kill them because they are wealthy? Would that satisfy you? Please, you are smarter than that and can do much better.
Well, the poor do not receive the quality health care the wealthier people receive. My ex wife did a residency in pediatrics and most of her patients were on Medicaid. The only healthcare that her patients were able to afford was seeing an intern, which was fresh out of medical school and haven't really gotten a chance to get their feet wet. Also, my ex told me that the hospital (which was affiliated with a university) tried to schedule only 20 minute appointments for the patients; for the hospital to increase revenue. So, in essence, she felt like she was never able to give a full and accurate diagnosis because of time constraints imposed by the hospital. If she did, she would fall behind on her recommended number of patients a day and be reprimanded.
It is a self perpetuating problem that will never be solved:
(1)Better quality healthcare service (longer time spent per patient) = less revenue, which means, shareholders, owners and administration of the facility are unhappy. Doctors are happy in treating and preventing illnesses.
(2)Poor quality healthcare service (quicker patient turnover times) = more revenue, which means shareholders, owners and administration are happy. Doctors feel like they aren't making as much of a difference in the health of the patient. Doctors are disappointed.
Unfortunately, you can't make everyone happy.
I finally picked up the phone and called AA...I definatley have some issues?
I'm just feeling a little bummed out that it had to come to this.
Anybody evse recovering that felt the same way and what were your first impressions
I'm a little , nervous , apprehensive and vunerable right now
Answer:
use aa to get sober then leave that crap alone. ive been sober for almost 2 years and listening to their preaching got old. you will notice, they tell you that you will never succeed on your own, that you will be a hopeless alcoholic your entire life, and most outrageous of all, they tell you to make up a god and he will perform a miracle in your life that will make you sober. not forever though, just for one day. they tell you never to plan on being sober because you are so insignificant in controlling your life, that you will never be able to make decisions in your life again. unless your god makes them for you.
go ahead, use their ideas on how to feel good about yourself. then never go back and know that all you need to quit drinking/drugging is a made up mind.
the only people that feel like they "need" aa, are weak minded individuals who feel like they need a bunch of mainly lowlifes and nobodys to validate them. also aa and na are just a bunch of f*ck buddy gathering for all the people that go. they call it 13 steppin.
hey man don't be bummed out I have 20 1/2 yrs of sobriety and can assure you that AA works and will change your life to the great if you do what it suggests. e-mail me anytime and we can talk.
Bless your heart. You did the right thing. You know the crazy thing about addiction of any kind is it's like you are loosing something that has been with you a long time. Even though it's not a good thing for you to be addicted to any substance, it has still been there and been a part of your life for a long time. You have to pick yourself up and do the right thing. I was addicted to narcotics. Addiction is a horrible thing and one that will control your life if you let it. And it doesn't control it very good. A.A. is a wonderful program if you work it and if you want help. You will get a lot of wonderful support and treatment options from them. All the best. You will be in my thoughts.
You do not have to feel bummed. It is a first step towards a better life, on your terms, and at your speed.
Everyone has issues to a certain point, some more than others. We all deal with the issues in different ways and others can not handle it and need help.
I, myself, have been going to AA. Thinking about going to the first meeting could be scary, for me it was more of a relief. There other people in the same predicament that I am in.
There are different meetings, smoking, co-ed, mens only, womens so forth and so on. Pick one that you feel comfortable with and go for it. Just relax, listen and when you feel up to it, share.
AA really does work, you'll see.
Try to remember that this recovery thing is just one day at a time. You only need to focus on today. And not picking up the first drink.
Would you feel bad about going to the doctor for diabetes? Consider AA as "insulin" - it will never cure the disease but it will keep it in check and manageable.
My mom always kept hard candy around for the sugar- alcohol converts to sugars in your body and she needed it to not be shaky. She has been sober for 31 years- after a few rocky stops and starts.
Your family may want to try Al-anon. It will help them deal with this disease and how it has affected them also.
You can do this. You are worth it. You will have people to talk to that understand what you are going through. And can be called day or night to help with the " I gotta have just one" feeling. You have taken the first step- and that is the hardest!
Bravo!

I FELL amd HIT MY HEAD on the TILE...Now ive been having a HEADACHE all day today.??
Earlier today I was at my aunts and she moped the floor then I walked through because I forgot,and I hit my head on the corner of the wall and then on the TILE...I have been having a headach all day today...Do you think im ok??.Dothe headache's mean something bad..?
Answer:
if you are not dizzy,nauseous or lightheaded,you probably do not have a concussion. its normal for any part of your body that gets struck to be sore. you may have a headach for a couple days,and probably a big bump,too. if it worries you or gets worse,or continues more thn a couple days,see your doctor.
You could have a concussion. Do you feel dizzy? Lightheaded? Sick? If you continue to have symptoms I would suggest seeing a physician.
Yes. They mean that you hit your head on something that was harder than the head. And no, I don't think you're ok. See a doctor immediately.
Very often when someone hits a part of their body, it hurts. Sounds like this is your problem.
There's a good chance you may have a concussion. Tell your aunt or your parents and get someone to take you to the doctor.
Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at

I feel weird when I eat anything with alot of sugar?
I can actualy almost feel my hearbeat speed up, why is that? Is something wrong with me, do I have like diebetis? Im 5'8 %26 119 or 120 pounds. I eat pretty healthy %26 work out. Am I okay??
Answer:
That is called a sugar rush. If you crash and feel awful after word you may be suffering from hypoglycemia. This is the opposite of diabetes. It is treated the same way. You stay away from eating sugar. Basically it means that your body, pancreas and/or liver, has problems metabolizing the sugar properly and does not produce the right amount of insulin. My mom is a hypoglycemic. This also can turn into diabetes later in life if you don't control it early.
You're probably okay, but you may want to see a doctor. A lot of people get sugar rushes like you though. However, I would cut back on the sweets if I were you.
Sugar has an effect on various parts of the body- adrenals included.
I personally never eat sugar, or anything with artificial sweeteners. I think many many people would suffer less anxiety and depression if they cut back on or eliminated sugars.
Read this: 146 Reasons Why Sugar Is Ruining Your Health
http://rheumatic.org/sugar.htm
A doctor can do a blood sugar test that will give you an instant readout. It won't diagnose diabetes, but it will give you a first indicator.
If you have a family history of diabetes you should be tested regularly.
GO TO A DOCTOR YOU COULD SERIOUSLY GET HURT BECAUSE OF THAT! Then again it could be nothing rather be safe than sorry! In other wise you choose dead or alive and worry free!
i don't know what it is called but sugar makes people hyper. that is why parents are careful about the amount of candy and soda they give kids.. and because you are healthy and your weight it hits u faster than most people... if it worries you more or any thing ask your doctor just to be on the safe side..
Stay away from sugar and salt.
You'll live a lot longer.

I Feel Very Tense?
I am feeling very tense, and very over-heated. I feel like I have a lot of pressure on me to do so many things its overwhelming. Does anybody have any tips that will help me calm myself down.
Answer:
GET OUT OF THE HOUSE! Go do something consructive, like go for a walk, ride a bike, rollerblade, or exercise.
That will make you feel better for a while. Then, take a shower and relax. After that, do something you ENJOY doing--like read, paint, play an instrument, play videogames, hand around with good people and converse.
Or, go do something you wouldn't normally do, like go to a poetry slam, museum, or to some event your local bookstore or library might be hosting.
go play outside

I feel so sick and tired.what can i do?what can i eat?
i had a few teeth and my tonsils removed on friday.i came home on friday.but i feel sick.bored.tired.hungrey.i dont know what to do for now.my brain is mush.my stomach hurts.my teeth/gums/jaw hurts.
i'm at a lose end.
Answer:
having a general anaesthetic won't help! my daughter had her (perforated) appendix out this week and some of the antibiotics are making her quite sick. i have just fed her very plain, healthy food. little and often. and because she was also prescribed paracetamol and ibuprofen she is taking them regularly. taking painkillers regularly for a few days will help you feel a bit better, promise! hope you are feeling better soon! m x
DO juicing.
I heard that to recover quickly-forget soft foods, just eat dry toast and your throat recovers faster.
plenty of ice cream, but if you are sick of the stuff try blending your favourite food. drinking chocolate would be nice for you
you should be eating soups and drinking ginger ale for your stomach.You must eat and drink or you become dehydrated and that is not good.You should be getting lots of rest and eating soups,puddings,icecream will help your throat feel a lot better
i agree eat some sh!t
Sorry I've got no magic cure but I thought you might like a few words of sympathy.
I felt just like you when I had my wisdom teeth out a few years ago.
I was hungry but I couldn't eat anything easily and I was on antibiotics that made me feel sick from time to time. Just to make matters worse I had a swollen face and looked like a hamster!
You can't even have a good cry because it hurts.
I was so miserable for days then the breakthrough came and I was well enough to eat some macaroni cheese and never looked back.
It's horrible when the weather is wet and horrible especially on a bank holiday weekend.
It won't be long now until you feel better your probably through the worst so take heart
Take it easy mate.you only had it done on friday and it is only sunday today.just rest alot,drink water.and eat abit,you dont have to stuff your face with chips and burgers.Hope you feel better soon.
Eat and do whatever the doctor recommended your do!!

I FEEL SO LIGHT HEADED - I haven't eaten all day!?
Yeah I forgot to. And now my stomach feels all churned up and like I wanna vomit. Is there anything I can cook up to settle my stomach?
Answer:
Yeah that's happened to me before. First drink some water. That helps fill you up. Try some bread to settle your stomach. Anything that isn't too flavorful. I suggest water and carbs.
EAT!!!! you should defintly eat right NOW.
Toast or bread and butter or oatmeal...
Your blood sugar has dropped because you have not ate. Try some crackers and ginger ale. You will feel better if you eat, good luck.
Things with lots of fiber help fill you up. ( bread, oatmeal, etc.) And milk is a really nice stomach settler, especially if you heat it up. Cheese and other dairy products are a good choice.
drink sprite and eat a subway sandwich. it may sound crazy but eating and drinking junk food actually makes me feel better. and what ever you do don't eat carrots they only make you feel hungry. what you can only eat them after your full. and ice cream or Popsicles is yummy.
Just eat!

I feel sick!! :-(?
i have eaten a chesse pasty from peter's baker'y about 1 hour ago and i feel so ill i want to be sick. i wish i never had it now. what sould i do?
1. go to bed and sleep hoping i will feel better by 4
2. stay on hear and answer more questions
3 go and make myself sick in the loo
4 eat more food.
Answer:
I think you should write a letter to Peter's bakery and sue the *** of them!!
make contact with another person and inform them and then go vomit.
Try 1 first,
but if you start vomiting go to emergency its food poisoning.
take a dring of water.
a renee.
and some sleep.
DO NOT MAKE YOURSELF SICK!
1. It always helps me!
Go take a rennie, that should help you feel better, sometimes even a travel sickness tablet helps with the nausea after eating something dodgy.
Yeah definitely eat more food, that would really help!
Do i detect youre telling a lie?
I would go and rest!
Out of those I'd say number 1.
At a push 2.
Definately not 3 and wouldn't suggest 4.
1
uh-oh.
my kids have all come down with some 48 hour sickness thing-have you started coughing? thats how it seems to start and then bleurgh!! its a nightmare-REALLY hope you havent got this, its best if you stay on here to answer more questions so i can keep an eye on you! lol!
you should lay down and relax. maybe take some sort of thing for your stomach like pepto. or something like that. that always helps when i eat something that makes me nauseous. you dont have to sleep, just relax. that always helps. and drink alot of water so if you do get sick you will have something to throw up, so you dont have to majorly taste that thing coming back up. good luck and feel better _+MINT+_
take some pepto bismol or other soothing emulsion medicine for your tummy. It's probably just a grease attack.
food poisoning is probably not your issue...relax, if you get feverish go to ER, vomiting and then feeling better is just your tummy saying no way!
If you continue to vomit long after, go seek help.
go to bed and sleep hoping i will feel better by morn
5. Have a cup of tea
1.
SUE THE FUC KERS - THEY'VE JUST POISONED YOU! I THINK A DOSE OF THE SHI TS WILL BE CALLING ON YOU TOO!
Try them all doll!! and pamper yourself because your worth it!!!
eat more food!
you might want to take some antacid to help relieve the feeling that you want to throw up.if you don't have any antacid a little baking soda in water can help.. if you don't have that either then drink water to help dilute the acid in your stomach..then you can stay on here and answer more question..hope you feel better :)
be sick.
Complain to the bakery.
Try going for a lie down and take a bucket/bowl with you, if you fall asleep lie on your side in case you are sick. If you don't feel better tomorrow go see a doctor.

I feel psychologically disturbed after what I saw earlier today. What could've been wrong?
I saw a little girl in the WalMart restroom %26 she was holding her stomach, throwing up a lot, %26 crying. Her mom was there helping her. I wish I could've helped. I felt so bad for that poor girl %26 I hope she's alright now.
Answer:
You are a caring person. It's okay be assured she is fine. This caring will make you a strong parent someday.
I'm sure her mom got her the proper help. It's nice you're so thoughtful though!
Wow! She has bulimia.
Yea I would too. She shouldn't have been at the store! They better get her to the doctor!
Its ok to feel concern but disturbed no.
You are so sensitive. I am too. We both need to learn how not to carry this stuff with us afterwards. We should just do what we can at the time and try not to let it bother us later.
And in actuality, this was not a bad thing. This child was ill but she had her mother there is help and care for her. I too hope she is better now.
I reported "bsfghsf g" for her abusive answer to you.
You should have asked. Maybe the Mother could have used your help?
Allways remember, you could say a prayer for the little girl.
that was terrible!! i like your picture you areen't fat!!
imagine what a chunk that person is!!
freak!
i don't know, she might have been sick, sad :(
She probably has the flu %26 she was crying because she was vomitting. Kids get scared when they vomit. I can't imagine being out in a public bathroom %26 being sick too. I'm sure she is fine.
IM Sure It Will Take A While To Forget But Eventually This Week; Im Sure Youll See A Happy Smiling Kid That Is Feeling Well To Refresh Your Mind This Week.
bsfghsf g That Is So Mean How Do You Look ? I Can Only Wonder Since Your Hiding Behind A Avitar. Also She Looks Better Than You Already Because You Have An Evil Spirit. You Are Mean.
very nice of u
Don't let it bother you. She has the help she needs. If Mama wanted, she would've asked u for help. I think she will go to the Dr sometime soon.
I can't believe that so many parents let their children outdoors while being sick. It bothers me.
You've become psychologically disturbed from watching a girl throw up and cry? Then this link should finish it off.
http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthr...
You were just traumatized. And they are kids so don't let it bother you. Just be glad it didn't happen to you!
Ladan, that's what I was going to say. =)
She is probably fine, kids get sick all of the time. Flu, food poisoning, etc. They bounce back fast :)
I like your picture! Your very pretty :) It's nice to see someone actually use their picture!
The person who wrote that horrible comment is so insecure about her own appearance that she has to take her time and make fun of others. Obviously has nothing better to do.
bsfghf...shut up. you dont even know what ur talkin about..oh and jsyk...im reporting your answer. and i reported ur other answer about how old that womans daughter looked.
now to continue.i am glad you are very caring..i would feel bad too. but dont worry...she has help.
Like Ladan said, the little girl had her mother with her, (hopefully) the most concerned and protective person in her life.
It is wonderful you are so concerned, even hours after you saw it, and that it bothers you enough to publicly ask about it!!
Try not to worry, sounds like she had a good mother to take care of her...and by the way you are very pretty dont pay a bit of attention the big mouth with the first answer.
lucky her mom was there...

You are so sensitive. I am too. We both need to learn how not to carry this stuff with us afterwards. We should just do what we can at the time and try not to let it bother us later.
And in actuality, this was not a bad thing. This child was ill but she had her mother there is help and care for her. I too hope she is better now.
I reported "bsfghsf g" for her abusive answer to you.
You should have asked. Maybe the Mother could have used your help?
Allways remember, you could say a prayer for the little girl.
that was terrible!! i like your picture you areen't fat!!
imagine what a chunk that person is!!
freak!
i don't know, she might have been sick, sad :(
She probably has the flu %26 she was crying because she was vomitting. Kids get scared when they vomit. I can't imagine being out in a public bathroom %26 being sick too. I'm sure she is fine.
IM Sure It Will Take A While To Forget But Eventually This Week; Im Sure Youll See A Happy Smiling Kid That Is Feeling Well To Refresh Your Mind This Week.
bsfghsf g That Is So Mean How Do You Look ? I Can Only Wonder Since Your Hiding Behind A Avitar. Also She Looks Better Than You Already Because You Have An Evil Spirit. You Are Mean.
very nice of u
Don't let it bother you. She has the help she needs. If Mama wanted, she would've asked u for help. I think she will go to the Dr sometime soon.
I can't believe that so many parents let their children outdoors while being sick. It bothers me.
You've become psychologically disturbed from watching a girl throw up and cry? Then this link should finish it off.
http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthr...
You were just traumatized. And they are kids so don't let it bother you. Just be glad it didn't happen to you!
Ladan, that's what I was going to say. =)
She is probably fine, kids get sick all of the time. Flu, food poisoning, etc. They bounce back fast :)
I like your picture! Your very pretty :) It's nice to see someone actually use their picture!
The person who wrote that horrible comment is so insecure about her own appearance that she has to take her time and make fun of others. Obviously has nothing better to do.
bsfghf...shut up. you dont even know what ur talkin about..oh and jsyk...im reporting your answer. and i reported ur other answer about how old that womans daughter looked.
now to continue.i am glad you are very caring..i would feel bad too. but dont worry...she has help.
Like Ladan said, the little girl had her mother with her, (hopefully) the most concerned and protective person in her life.
It is wonderful you are so concerned, even hours after you saw it, and that it bothers you enough to publicly ask about it!!
Try not to worry, sounds like she had a good mother to take care of her...and by the way you are very pretty dont pay a bit of attention the big mouth with the first answer.
lucky her mom was there...
I feel phyically sick?
I'm suffering with stress. I cant escape it. Work is stressing and home partner serious ill and i have to do most things for him. There is no get away as cant afford break and now i am phyically feeling sick and in quiet a lot of pain. Plus Im now not sleeping and not eating correctly and living on caffine to keep me awake to work. Help I rele need it
Answer:
Hi sweetie - I've been RIGHT where you are. I go to work just to get away from the things I have going on at home and then I get here and don't want to be here either. Depression. It really does "hurt" like you say, that combined with the fact that your not getting much rest is probably why your body is aching. You need to eliminate any stressors that you can, and, if theres nothing to eliminate, you need to find some DEstressors. Start going to the gym, go get a massage, take an hour for yourself at night and take a hot bath...do SOMETHING to help yourself destress. Maybe try going for a walk on your lunch break...either way...if it gets worse please go see your doctor. Like I said, i've been there before and it WILL get better, its just gonna take some time!
A lot of primary caregivers get ill. It is so stressfull because you can't get away from it. A lot I have known personally actually turn into work a holics to stay away from home because work is less stressful than staying home.
I dont know of where to look for help...but you need it. Start asking around, start by asking on this forum. Also ask at church if u have one. Or family and friends. You need "me" time and dont feel guilty about it. If u dont take care of yourself you will have nothing left to give.
good luck:)
I know what you are going through and You can only help yourself. You may need to make a choice between your partner or work. My opinion is work because you need rest and good nutrition. your work is your life line and you do not need stress added to your professional life. If your partner is seriously ill and you are financially trying to support both, you need to look into hospice care. Remember that You need to take care of yourself too. Sounds selfish but it is true. I divorced my husband because he wouldn't take care of himself. He was an alcoholic and cocaine addict and I left him. Not all ill people are addicts, but I left because he loved drugs over me.

I feel like Vomitting Cos Im sick?
Any methods to stop me from feeling vomitting? I took Medicine, but maybe the huge and big tablet cos me to feel disgusted
Answer:
I think its the tablets because you are thinking about them but if it continues take some pepto bismal it helps although I hate the thickness of it going down
Look man pull up a bucket by your bed and go to sleep , when you wake let it out and go back to sleep.
I hope you are not pregnant. :)
Drink some iced down water and eat things like dry soup crackers or those little Ritz crackers, the crackers will make your stomach calm down by helping to control the acid build up and other food that might still be in there, and the water will help flush things out.
When you feel a little better but still sick try some thin chicken soup.
Another good thing to do if you can't drink the water is to just suck on ice cubes.
anything ginger!
If you are vomiting, then it is for a reason. Your body is trying to get rid of something and you need to let it run its course. Call your doctor on Monday and see what he or she has to say.
If you are just having trouble with nausea, still call the doctor, but in the meantime, try these tricks.
-Lay on your BACK and be very still
- Put a damp wash cloth on your throat
-Breathe with your mouth open
Hope that you feel better soon!
flat gingerale and dry toast or saltine crackers.
It depends on why you're sick. If you drank too much or have food poisoning/stomach flu it is best to just let it all out. Not throwing up will only prolong the pain.
After you have thrown up, then stick to eating things like crackers, plain toast, plain chicken broth and 7-up or ginger ale. Eat nothing else or you will continue throwing up.
If you feel like throwing up because you ate too much or feel like you are too full, then what you can do is this: grab a medium-sized towel and wet half of it with cold water. Wring the cold water out and go back to your bed/couch. While you are lying down, place the cold part of the towel over your stomach and torso. It will be a bit of a shock, but just do it. fold the dry half over the cold half and just lie there. The coldness of the wet towel "absorbs" the heat from your abdominal area and calms your stomach a bit.
Fell better soon!
the smell of citrus takes my nausau away,i read that in a health book also. IT really depends on why your feeling so lowsy. it could be the stomach flu,to much alcohol,being tired,not getting the right rest,or many other reasons. you should however get plenty of rest,drink lots of liquids,and reduce stress levels as this also may add to your illness,take care allways your friend.

Hi, You sound like me i to really get sick when i get sick. I have found a product that helps your Immune system and it has help me out a lot. I don't get sick very offen and i feel better health wise. The product is called Echinacea it's all herbal and natural. I take 1 caplet in the morning and 1 caplet at night. I found it at SAMs CLUB and i think that is the only place you can get it,not unless Wal-Mart has it. They are sort of parnters in this business. Try the product after a month or a little after you will notice a big difference. Good Luck.

Take a couple of sudafeds whenever you feel a tickly throat. Nip it in the bud-before it scorches the throat.
Many diff options. You can try getting some antibiotics from your Dr. but IDK if that works for a coomon cold. Take extra vitamin C %26 zinc for your immune system %26 drink a lot of fluids %26 juices. Try going to bed early too. Extra sleep never hurts.

I feel like crap...can anyone help me feel better?
My throat is really sore, %26 my nose is stuffy. I have an occasional cough to. What should I do to feel better?
Thanks,
Blondie
Answer:
First, eat two crackers, then take two Advil or Aleve and one Benadryl. Then make a pot of hot tea with lemon and enough honey to make it pretty sweet. Run a not too hot bath and get in, getting your hair wet. Not a shower. A bath. Drink one cup of tea in the bathtub. Put on comfy pajamas that cover your arms. When you get out, drink more tea and eat two pieces of cinnamon toast, enough cinnamon to make your nose run. Take one little dose-cup of Nyquil. Get into bed. Fix your pillows just right. Put a wrapped-up ice pack on your forehead and two others on either side of your neck below your ears and under your jaw. Baby yourself for two days and eat chicken noodle soup and more tea and cinnamon toast.
Pretend this is your mother talking. I raised three kids and one husband on this cure and it works.
take cold medicine and go to bed.
Chicken soup and some cold medicine?
stop smoking
Hot tea.
Cough medicine.
Shower.
Rest.
overdose on antibiotics well dont take that many but it will help stay safe luv u buddy
go to a doctor
Get some cough medicine and cough drops...Hope u get better!!
stop eating..go take a nice dump and go bulimic! and you will be happy
Get some honey for your throat and some Tylenol Sinus. You'll feel 100% better in the morning.
use any airborne products (cold/cough) should do..they taste great too..and they work very well. fell better soon!
Strangely, I heard that decaf tea with honey is very good for a sore throat. The tea contains stuff to get rid of free radicals and the honey kills bacteria!
Sleep! Take some throat spray and keep the tissues near by. Rent a good movie and curl up under some blankets.
hug
drink a cup of tea and watch ur favorite movie while cuddling up in your favorite blanket. :)
take some pain killers or Ny-Quil and go to bed for crying out loud!!
allergy medicine.
robitussin for your throat, afrin for your stuffy nose, chicken soup to help knock it out of your body and get to sleep ASAP
Oregano oil, 2 drops in the morning and 2 at night for 4 days. It will kick viral butt and have you on the mend in 1/2 the time.
It sounds like you suffer from allergies. Try taking an antihistamine such as Benadryl. If allergies are the culprit you should begin to feel some relief in a very short time, perhaps even minutes.
have you heard of the netty pot? it was on oprah... you make this mixture of saltwater and baking powder and then allow it to flow into your nose... it cleans out bacteria and helps a ton with sinus problems!! it's also really cheap and you can use it again and again.. just google it.. good luck!!
Rub vicks on your lip, the vapor helps the congestion, and take a tablespoon of honey.Helps the sore throat.
Cold medicines do not work, they are designed to not work, so that drug companies can milk more and more money from consumers. You should eat lots of healthy foods, hot foods like onions, chilli and garlic (garlic is especially good) in your everyday diet can help combat getting sick, theres not really much you can do about a cold once you have it except try to make yourself comfortable, have a nice hot bath and inhale the steam.
soup, and night quil, and a warm blanket...
Drink as much tea and water as you can to flush the bug you have. Hot mint tea is what my grandmother use to give me.
Pure spearmint leaves in hot water. I coughed all kinds of gross phleghm up. You can try Bigelow mint medly if you can't find dried mint leaves.
Do not have dairy when you're sick. Orange juice also has vitamins you need at this time.
FEEL BETTER:)
Drink lots of fluids, mostly water. Get some sports drinks. If you have a fever, you may want to see a doctor. It's a sign of an infection. Get some cough drops. You should probably go to bed and stay there. If your runny nose is clear and stays that way, it's just allergies and you should go to the doctor to get prescribed something for that. If it turns green or yellow, it's a cold and you also should go to the doctor. Hope you feel better.
Hey Blondie, sorry you feel so terrible. Hey listen, I just been through a One year, three month nightmare where I fell from a ladder and practically killed my self. After months of therapy, operations, I'm now getting on my feet. Ive been thru hell and am actually still there, however I'm writing to you with a smile because I know one day I will shine again. If I can do It, you can. Putter up, check out a web site called streetfire.net watch some cool races, how about Wedding Crashers, I know you'll love that. You'll be OK. Luck to ya, Steve.
I feel like crap too, so I can't help. All I can suggest is sleep.
Sorry to hear that . . .it sucks being sick.
Use nasal spray to help relieve the congestion. Try HydraSense it is saline solution and you can use often.
Use Puffs Kleenex when blowing your nose, they are gentle to your nose so you don't look like a clown. I have learned this from experience :o(
Try and rest if you can.
I hope you feel better soon. . .It is so crappy being sick, especially during the summer.
Thanks,
Blondie

I feel like crap. Why?
Ive gone cold turkey from booze and fags, completly stopped the two! Why do i feel so crappy 4 weeks on?
Answer:
it depends on what happened in your life, which we don't know about
maybe you need to find someone to talk about
Your body was upregulated to depend on those drugs to maintain what it thought was a 'normal' state. Since those drugs are missing now, and it is depending on you to provide them, it will take some time before it completes a down regulation to what is actually a 'normal' state. You're probably most missing dopamine. See a doctor for an SSNRI antidepressant for short term help in adaptation. Stopping any drug 'cold turkey' is as bad as starting any drug at the highest level you're ever used.

I feel awake after having diazepam, whats wrong? please advice, thanks?
Answer:
Probably because you are tolerant and addicted to sedative hypnotics (tranquillisers or sleeping pills). If you use sedative drugs regularly the body becomes tolerant to the drugs effects and then gets addicted. When people try to stop too fast they get withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, muscle spasms, hallucinations etc. See this page for more information http://www.benzo.org.uk/manual/... and this page http://www.bcnc.org.uk/symptoms.html...
Benzodiazepine drug slike diazepam don't work for very long.
I faked being sick from school today but now my mom is calling my doctor to see if im ok...what should i do?
told my mom i had strep throat and i really bad cold
Answer:
Ok Gabby, you see what lying will do, It only makes things worse so you need to apologize to your mom ask her to forgive you and don't lie to her again about you being sick or about anything, 1 lie leads to many many more and by the time you know it will have created such problems for you and your mom and your mom will never believe you again about anything, and believe me that is a bad feeling to have your mom to distrust you about everything, but this is what 1 little lie will do to a great relationship between a mother and her daughter. Respect your mother tell her the truth and let her know how sorry you are that you hurt her and promise her you will never lie to her again if you don't your relationship will be over. The love, trust and respect she has for you will be damaged and it is hard to get back. Please, Honor your Mom and she to will honor you!
just say that you slept with your mouth open and that your throat dried up and it felt like strep throat
Confess. Better just to have your mom mad, then have her pay for a dr visit too!
Put cut raw onions under ur arm pits, u'll get the fever!!
Wow... go through the steps... and when it comes back negative, then just say "I thought I had it... felt like it" I mean your not a doctor... you only felt like you were sick with strep...
Life is short. Decide why you wanted to ditch school and tell the truth.
FYI the treatment for strep throat is antibotics and that will give you diahhrea and gastrointestinal difficulties and tweaks your immune system , so you could get sick from it. Antibotics also make the BCP ineffective.
You had better come clean before she spends money on taking you to the doctor for nothing. And learn your lesson, don't lie to your mother!
Do you live at home? If so, you are just going to have to suck it up and come clean to your mother. There's no reason to lie to her. It will save her the money for an unnecessary trip to the doctor.
what you gotta do is just say you drank a hot cup of tea and now you feel better
if u r stressed, tell teh doc and mom why you didnt want to go and ask for some help
Just tell your mom the truth, If she spends the money on the Dr and nothing is wrong with you she will find out that you lied.

FYI the treatment for strep throat is antibotics and that will give you diahhrea and gastrointestinal difficulties and tweaks your immune system , so you could get sick from it. Antibotics also make the BCP ineffective.
You had better come clean before she spends money on taking you to the doctor for nothing. And learn your lesson, don't lie to your mother!
Do you live at home? If so, you are just going to have to suck it up and come clean to your mother. There's no reason to lie to her. It will save her the money for an unnecessary trip to the doctor.
what you gotta do is just say you drank a hot cup of tea and now you feel better
if u r stressed, tell teh doc and mom why you didnt want to go and ask for some help
Just tell your mom the truth, If she spends the money on the Dr and nothing is wrong with you she will find out that you lied.
I fainted while dancing, should i go on?
i have been working on a dance routine, and i have been working foe about 2 and a half hours. if you want to see it, go to youtube, and search for "dream street collections" and it is like a 6 minuet remix of some songs. if you can see the backup dancers, that is what i am dancing. just a while ago, i was dancing, and i just fell, and blacked out for a minute. i know i fainted, because i have fainted before, and it happened the same way just right now. should i keep on dancing, because i really want to, or should i stop for today? will it be safe to keep on?
Answer:
sounds like you have had enough dancing for today
You need to stop and eat something and you should also get this fainting checked out if it happens again. Fainting can be a sign of something wrong.
find out why get a general chex up
There are several causes of fainting (syncope).
1. dehydration
2. tachycardia
3. Parade syncope...long periods of standing with knees locked.
4. and psychogenic cause to name just a few.
If your pulse is under 100 now, its likely safe...but without a medical examination and more history it will be tough to answer.
Drinking too much water is dangerous, and especially if you aren't eating.
If dancing requires you to abuse your body in the name of being skinny and having the physique of a 13 year old boy, then give up dancing, or switch to a dance form that doesn't embrace the anorexic look.
No !

I fainted today at my friend's house.?
and I don't know why or whether I should be worried. I started to see bright spots while sitting on the couch. I got up and went to the bathroom, closed the door and then I woke up on the floor. After I got up I had a very bad headache. I feel better now, but I don't know whether this is just an isolated incident or if I should be concerned. I had eaten recently and I had been drinking water all day. I'm in relatively good health, but have had migraines on occasion, though this seemed unrelated. Any ideas?
Answer:
It could be a migraine, but you should check with your doctor.
go see a doctor .
R u pregnant? I would see a doctor about it as what if it had happened when you were driving.
Spots in front of your eyes is an indication of high blood pressure as one thing.
Headaches are another indicator of high blood pressure.
Fainting is not good no matter what the circumstances, and I would bet its your blood pressure again! It may have had a sudden drop..(That water you have been drinking all day long, well, too much is "not" a good thing for you!).
Too much water will unbalance your electrolytes and throw your system all out of wack. Plus, you urinate all your potassium out..(its why beer drinkers usually develope heart disease, because they urinate thier potassium out and potassium is a "very needed" item for a good heart!).
Cut down on the water consumption or you may end up actually "poisoning" yourself with water toxicity! 8 -12 ounce bottles are enough.
Go see a Doctor and get some bloodwork done and see what you maybe missing now. Electrolytes, and vitamins, plus potassium levels too.
I wish you well...

I fainted today at lunch and dont know why any ideas?
A possibility could be that I'm not eating well but does it really take 3 days to faint after not eating enough?
Answer:
yes, it could...especially if it was sudden. your blood sugar could be really low and it's sending your body into shock. i had a roommate who that happened to once. i suggest you start eating healthy cuz it puts a hard toll on your body to deprive it from what it needs. you should also see a doc
could be many things.. i know you hate to hear it, but getting tests done by a doc would be the only real way to know.
could be low blood sugar.. aka hypoglacemia
No one except a doctor can tell. See one ASAP.
Yes, it means that your blood sugar(glucose level) was drastically at an unsafe low level. You need to be checked by a medical doctor and start eating right to keep your levels up.
It could be a number of things. Low blood pressure, low blood sugar,etc. especially if you are fasting. You really should take care of yourself and see a doctor.
Why aren't you eating enough? Of course that's a reason you could faint, low blood sugar, possibly dehydration, you need to eat sensibly if you are trying to diet and that's why you aren't eating enough. You might try fruits for the sugar content, nuts for the protein, and veggies for a light lunch and make sure you eat breakfast and dinner. Drink alot of water.
yeah, three days is enough to make you faint, and if you are starving yourself you know it's only going to make your body store those fat cells and you'll never lose more than a few pounds until your body starts to eat away at your muscle tissue for nutrition.
and probly since you ain't taking care of yourself it probly means you ain't drinking enough water and dehydration starts way before you ever get thirsty. If your pee is yellow, you're dehydrated darlin.
ya, eat something and get over your weight obsession. not only are you lowering your life span and putting your health in serious danger, not to mention you are destryoing your body, but you are missing out on some really good food!!!! mmmmm! how do you do it? Just learn to eat right please! You are giving other insecure women a bad model to follow. just eat healthy and exercise thats all there is to it. Not eating just makes you lose muscle, so just a warning ahead of time, if you do it long enough, and then decide to start eating like a normal person again, which you will eventually, you are going to turn into the queen of flubber. so get your good habits now
No, if your blood sugar drops, you could pass out any time.
Don't starve yourself like that...you are damaging every organ and system in your body, namely your heart and nervous system. Fasting is not dieting.
One day of poor eating could do it. Get your blood sugar levels tested.
If your body isn't getting enough nutrients it may cause this problem, dehydration may also be a culprit. I hope you are not starving yourself...
your right your probably not eating right so eat plz so you dont get sick
