I started having numbness in my forehead and both forearms about 9-10 weeks ago. I now have some numbness in both feet around my toes ( feels like walking on cotton) Now I have slight numbness on my tongue. Had bloodwork done. Blood sugar was a little high. 6.7 but everything else was good. I went to a chiropractor for about 6 visits. Nothing has helped. Just saw a neurologist and she doesn t think its neuropathy because it didn t start in my feet and I don t have any pain. I just had an MRI and haven t had the results as yet. I ve completely changed my diet. I m following the Paleo plan. Any idea what this might be? I m thinking of going to an acupuncturist next. Thank-you

I have been active person in my life and now 87. I have gained about 15 pounds. I suffer from low back pain and it has worsened since a I had another knee replacement last year. The old one was 21 years and was put in in 1992. It still hurts and with my back painful for sitting, I wonder what can be done to be more comfortable? I take strong pain pills and exercise twice a week with a group. I also have stretch and other ways of trying to rid of pain. What do you think of the back injections? I do try to keep going and see and do many things, but I am also a writer and an artist. This means sitting much. I believe waiting to see a good specialist makes it worse. Why is Canada so terrible for waiting for a specialist?


I had about 20 extractions and dentures put in about 6 months ago and never really got comfortable with them and the adhesive.

I went to the doctor and he said it was neurological so I went to the emergency room and get MRI and am awaitiny appointment with him. Have you ever heard of anything like this?

I have for several years tried to explain to my docs that I get what I call brain explosion (if you put your hand tight to one ear then pull it off suddenly that noise and feeling it makes) followed by vertigo.

I do have M.S. and have had a head injury that seems to start it all, i.e. M.S. and brain explosions with vertigo.


About a week ago, I slipped on ice and fell very hard on my tailbone on a concrete floor. I have pain (not too severe) in the lower and mid back, and also in the tailbone area, but I have also developed nausea and a sickly feeling for the past couple of days. Could this just be from the painkillers I am taking? I am currently taking Prodeine Forte and Naproxen (2-3 tablets per day, combined).


I am 57 years old and have been diagnosed with scoliosis, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis as well as osteoarthritis.

I have had 2 epidural injections one into L3 - L4 and one into L5-S1. I still am having a lot of pain. could the scoliosis be causing all the tightness in the muscles to the right side.

Hi, My fathers wife I was told is Bipolor. My father has cancer and she has been left in charge of giving him meds at home and all other care. She calls us and tells us he needs rest so we cant visit or call but then has her family over. My father has whispered on the phone that her family is there and not good. This concerns me because the doctors are telling him he has chemo brain and will think things happen when the dont and his wife is left in charge to clear things up with him on what is really going on. She also always watches shows where people murder their spouse and try to get away with it. I dont want to jump to any conclusions however if she is bipolor are these signs of bad things? Should i speak to my fathers doctor and tell him/her that we were told she is bipolor and what is going on?

Dear Doctors, I am a 51 yo white male who has been in great health all my life. Last May I began to notice that my left bicept was very sore for no reason. I don t recall exerting myself or over using it. I also noticed that my briefcase and luggage seems heavier than normal in both arms and I had to often switch hands. A few week later my right bicep was aching too especially when using it for every day lifting activities. My primary care doctor though it might be tendonitis and put me on an NSAID that did notthing. A few months later both forearms also have become very sore and painful when in use. I feel like I have become quite week in both arms having pain and weakness while doing things like raking leaves and using a screw driver. over the past few months my wrists and fingers in both hands have also become sore and weak. And things like carrting wood in the house for a fire is difficult but I can still do it. I went to a neurologist who could not detect any weakness or a cause. My legs seem fine , perhaps a little sluggish, but I can still go out an run 5 miles. I m not sure this is related in any way but I noticed 2 spontaneous bruises. A medium sized one the top left of my foot and my small one on my left bicep. Can you think of what might be causing this or refer a tye a specilaltist to see?

My husband went to doctor because of fever and swollen lymph node and the doc said that it was post nasal drip and gave him amoxicillin.

Should we be concerned about any possible problem with this?


Hi, my son is just reached 3 years old this month. He suffers from large adenoids and a mildly enlarged one tonsil as shown in his x-ray 6 months ago. His tonsils get infected every second month during the last two years. Before reaching 2 years and 4 months the infection goes by using some home therapy but after 2 years and half the infectios becomes stronger and more often he needs to use antibiotic each time. When he gets infection he breaths with difficulty during his sleep and breath from his mouth most of the time. During last two months his tonsils get infected three times a month and he had to use injections for five days. the ENT advises to remove his tonsils and adenoids without asking to do an x-ray but the pediatrics advises he is too young to do it and that we better wait till he is 5 years. Could you please advise if the surgery is better for his health at this age or better wait and what are the risks if we did it or not. I am afraid his overall health is effected as he is 2 kg underwight and his ammunity is so week. Many thanks

There is one lump now causing pain at the front of my shoulder . . . It developed some time now under where my bra strap rests. All my life I have had very large breasts, so I ve had to pull my straps very tightly for support. Ultrasound results were relayed to me as nothing to worry about yet, my doctor is suggesting an MRI because there is some damage . . . How should I interpret things thus far in this regard?

Hi, after taking some fertility tests, my husbands blood test shows he has suspected hyperthyroidism. We are waiting to take a second blood test in 2 weeks time to confirm. I have just ordered fertilaid to try to assist with conceiving. If he starts to take fertilaid will this affect his blood test results. We have been trying to conceive for nearly a year and he has low sperm motility. This is the main reason for trying fertilaid however I dont want his blood test to be effected as I want any issues he has to be diagnosed correctly so he can get the correct treatment.

Hi, My 65 year old brother was diagnosed with aplastic anemia in December 2011. Six weeks ago, he had a rabbit serum-based treatment. He has since been in the hospital with blood on his lungs; it is thought that his platelet transfusions should be increased to prevent the bleeding . In any event, his regular doctor told my sister-in-law yesterday that it would be a miracle if he survives. I realize that this is a very unusual disease with not much history to go on. However, aren t there other alternatives than just giving up? Thank you.

Thanks. Just got blood tests back with elevated AST and ALT scores. ALT 102 and AST 126. My doctor is confused. Suggested I have an alcohol problem and I do not drink but maybe once a month. Just beer and usually only one at a time. These levels are elevated from my last physical 3 years ago, when they were in the normal range. I have had some strange knee pain and tight neck pain in the past 2 months that I have never had before. Persistent for the past 2 months or so. I am a male 52 year old, former pro soccer player. Thoughts?


My blood pressure is around 150 - 90 in normal condition. But if I am tired it goes up to 180 - 10 mg. In this context do you think that I must use drug?. If I use drug and drop the blood pressure figures to 120 - 80 can I leave to use drug?


I woke up yesterday morning with red dots all over my thighs, they were flat, didnt itch , and everyone of them had a white ring around them. Throughout the day i noticed they were slowing spreading down my legs, some of them looked to have become swollen, some began to become raised and others stayed the same. Last night a couple of them began to itch but not all of them. I woke up this morning with more red spots, more that had become larger and swollen as well as more that started to itch. They have now made it down to my feet . It seems as if they are spreading possibly to my arms. I have about a handful on my arms. Other than the white ring around them they look very similar to a mosquito bite just without the annoying itch all day long. Do you have any idea what these may be?? I showed the doctors i work for today and they had no idea.


I knelt down on my boyfriend ball sack-I was trying to get on top of him and of course landed there. He was in great pain and started to find blood in his urine. Hes seeing a doctor, but in the meantime what can be done to subside the pain? I feel terrible!


My husband has been a contractor for 20+ years. He is 47 and smokes. Today he was priming a house (wearing a protective mask) and the fumes were bothering him and he coughed up blood a couple of times. He said that this has happened at times in the past. In your opinion, could the coughing of blood be because of the fumes or related to a deeper medical issue? Please advise, thank you! Tiffany

20 yr old daughter began to experience brain-fog and lapse in train of thought. She is at a University and is stressing this semester already because of increased difficulty in paying attention. And today her vision is affected where she s says she can t even see the chalk board. I m an MRI Tech and will do a brain scan this Friday. She also has an apt with eye doctor the week as. She is allergic to most every thing with asthma. We even went gluten free but she cannot tell if that s it. Her meds are 2 puffs Pulmicort Flexhaler twice a day. 180mcg 1 10mg montelukest sodium, and one over the counter allergy pill a day. Not Benadryl. She had blood work for slight weight gain that apparently came back normal. She is already suspecting a brain tumor.

Several years ago my son, 2 1/2 yrs old, was at the park w/ grandpa and fell and hit his forehead (glabella area) on a step. There was a small indent that quickly swelled and no signs of brain injury but 3 years later there is STILL a squishy lump at the impact site that s very noticeable when he makes certain facial expressions (raising eyebrows) Ped doesn t seem concerned. Says it s likely a callus type tissue damage. Should I be concerned and can expect it to ever go away..?

What do you think the cause of stomach cancer is?.. and dont tell me its the bacteria because my mother didnt have any of the risk factors including the bacteria. My mother was 49 and 58. She weighed about 190 pounds. She was a white American living in Wisconsin and there were nothing in her medical history that had to do with this cancer.  She had part of her esophagus removed at the Mayo Clinic. Since she had her esophagus removed maybe it was actually esophageal cancer which is pretty similar but Im think it was stomach cancer.  I know youd think Id know exactly what cancer it is but I didnt really pay that much attention through the whole process and now my mother died while Im going to graduate high school next year. I just want some answers.

I ve had trouble breathing for awhile now. I am a 15 year old female and I might have precordial catch syndrome, but I am not 100% sure. I get the occasional stabbing pain in the left side of my chest. It last for a few minutes and it sometimes feels better if I apply pressure. other times, the pain is not intense and it hurts for a longer period of time. another problem I experience is trouble breathing. I find myself taking a deep breath every few minutes. I do this because I feel like it is impossible to get air without taking a deep breath. It almost feels like there is a huge bubble in my chest, keeping me from breathing, and when I take a deep breath, it allows enough air to satisfy me for a few minutes. Then the same problem happens again. This is really annoying, painful and kind of scary. I feels like my chest will suddenly close up, making it impossible to breath. Please help!

I am 35 and taking Tri-Previfem birth control pills after 5 years of an IUD. The IUD caused excessive bleeding.  I have been on the pill for about 6 months.  I am feeling lots of anxiety during the 3rd week of my pill pack.  I also feel much less happy about my relationship with my husband during this time.  I notice now my hands shake mildly, also at the 3rd week stage of the pill pack.  Is this a normal reaction to Tri-Previfem?

I am sitting at work right now questioning what the heck is going on with my gums. 3 Days ago I was eating a large carrot, that I thought might have cut the bottom side of my gums under the front left side of the lip (Inside the mouth) If I grab my lip on the left side and pull it back, I can notice a small hole. It is almost as if the area was damaged or punctured, but more likely stretched and torn. I am feeling pain around my Jaw and in the surrounding area on the outside of the mouth. I am extremely concerned that this might be more serious as it hasn t improved, yet almost before it tore open there was a pain leading upto the tear. Please any help?? David Chicago, IL


I had emergency surgery to remove an upper and lower wisdom teeth out last thursday. i then got dry socket but after 3 days of packing it , today they told me they cant pack it anymore because it is delaying the healing.

What could cause this


Dear sirFrom Dr


I am currently 28 weeks pregnant and I have soreness and swelling under my right armpit. My obgyn examined me about 2 months ago and said that she didn t feel anything abnormal and that this was normal during pregnancy. Should I still be worried or get a second opinion?


I am a self employed, 48 year old black male.  At the age of 28 I started treatment for borderline hypertension.  Several years ago I developed diarriha which has stayed for months at a time broken only by a day or less. I also had bladder problems and urinated at least 4 time during sleep hours.  I have been feeling extremely ill for over 24 months. It started suddenly one day when I noted what felt like a tight band around my right wrist.  My hand would later became a bit numb, but that sensation would subside.  After a few weeks, the tight band sensation seemed to migrate up into my left elbow and the weakness continued.  After the elbow, the weakness moved up to my shoulder and caused what I can only describe as a nearly useless left arm.  it was very weakened and I was not able to lift or get much use from it.  This would go on to last for several weeks.  During this period I was bothered by the weakness, and assumed it was something of a pinched nerve.    However,since I am a right hander, I simply used that dominate hand while waiting for the issue with the left hand to subside.  The numbness in the left arm and hand lasted for more than two weeks.  Just as suddenly the arm issue had arrived it disappeared.  Nearly a month later the same numbness appeared to begin in my right arm.  But, after a few days of the tight band feeling on my wrist, it was gone.  Several days later, I began to feel what I described at the time as a slight twisting sensation in my left testicle.  That light sensation soon became a full blown twisting feeling in the right testicle and up into the lower right abdominal area.  On the second day, the pain in those areas was unbearable and I found myself in an emergency clinic.  I was advised to alternate ice and heat on my groin area. Since no swelling was observed I was told it was ok... given advil and sent home.  Over the course of the next several weeks I began to be extremely fatigued.  I could only function for approximately 2 hours in the early day.  No amount of sleep or rest changed that exhaustion.  The exhaustion was soon followed by what I would later come to describe as almost hourly hotflashes.   These hot flashes initially the hotflashes were in my face and shoulders.  However, they soon spread to my shoulders, chest, and arms.  Additionally, I began to feel very mentally slowed.  My memory was seemingly failing and my abilities to complete my normally routine tasks became a true challenge.  During these early days I was treated by my private doctor who advised me that I appeared yellowish... and might be anemic.  He also informed me that my prostate was very enlarged...Complete blood panels would come to show that I had high lymphocytes, low neutrophils, low platelets, low testosterone, lowered liver and kidney functioning.   Except for liver and kidney tests, These results would remain constant for the next two years testing each 60 days.  Additionally, the tests would show very low vitamin D and Potassium for the entire period. After exhausting my financial resources, I was left to seek care and answers at the local VA hospital.  After repeating the tests, the VA doctors continue to find those same results.  Throughout this period, I have experienced night sweat from light to extremely heavy.  The VA Doctors started tellng me there is no signs of lupis.  They say prolonged diarriha may be irritable bowel and the hot flashes and pain in my right testicle and right groin may be in my mind. In approximately May 2011, I began to experience painful nodes in my neck and under my chin.   Ocassionally, they would be swollen but most often just a bit painful.  This was soon followed by a loss or change in my vocal quality.   Soon, that same pain had spread to my upper chest just below the clavacles.  That was followed by pain and soft puffiness in the clavacle spaces.  Nothing can be felt there but soft puffy swelling... like a soft balloon on each side.   Additionally,  I have started having intense pain in my achilles tendons and hand tendons.The doctor ignores my thyroid questions because my TSH is within some expected ranges.  All tests are negative for infection however, I feel horrible. Although those statements about these issues being in my mind have eased since the discovery of the varicocele and hydrocele in my right testicle.  After nearly 18 months of the same complaints and symptoms... an ultra sound completed at my insistence would finally show the varicocele as cause of the pain. In August 2011, i was rushed to the hospital with a fever of 105 degrees.  No infection was found and the fever was listed as a fever of unknown origin.  After several IVs and a dose of potassium, I was sent home with a fever of 101.   Over the course of the next few months the following symptoms have come for differing durations

I have anxiety and ptsd due to severe abuse as a child. I am studying to be a writer and I got really stressed; had to stay up all night the other night to write a paper that was due the next morning. Since then I have felt like I have the flu and my entire body has been tingly. Dont have the flu. I got the shot. I took some Ativan and some Aleve just now. Is there something else I should do for this anxiety period. It will go away eventually, but I hate feeling like this and its scary.


My wife had her gal bladder removed. When the surgeon removed the gall bladder he noticed something on her liver and he removed it and took a biopsy. It came back as adenoclast cancer. We have had upper gi, lower gi, CT Scan, Pet scan. Breast with biopsy. Results were no cancer in a primary location. Did find in the pet scan a very small light up on the liver in the field where the biopsy occured. Onacologist now wants to treat the spot with chemo and radiation. We are looking for an alternative.

My 20 year old son has been spitting up blood. He had a paratonsillar abscess 1 year ago and we looked in his mouth for a reason why he would be spitting up blood. My husband says that the area where the abscess was there is something going on which could cause my son spitting up the blood. I made an appointment with the ENT that took care of the abscess. The doctor did a thorough exam ans stated that there is no abscess or any indication of why my son would be spitting up blood. During his exam, the doctor noticed my son s nodules are enlarged. He sent my son for a chest X-ray as he said that we need to take this serious, which I do. The doctor stated that he may refer my son to a pulmonary doctor and may need to biopsy the lymph nodes. The X-ray shows prominent perihilar markings and hyperexpansion. What does this all mean?

I am very concerned for my 73 year old friend. She was very sick a few days ago throwing up bile. She had a CT scan today and was diagnosed with a blocked right kidney and an obstruction in her stomach or intestine. Her doctor did not put her in the hospital today. She told her to go Monday for an ultrasound. I am concerned that time is wasting and that she should go to the hospital now, not when she is in pain. Isn t this a medical emergency? My friend is on blood thinner and other medications for congestive heart failure, which she has had the past 10 years. She had laproscopic surgery in January for the removal of her gallbladder and gall stones. Do you recommend that she go to the ER and get admitted to the hospital instead of waiting around until Monday to get an ultrasound and/or Upper GI? My email address is YYYY@YYYY . Thank you. I didn t realize this was a web site that charges. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I had Mitral Valve Repair almost one year ago as well as 1 Bypass.  I have returned to relatively noithrmal life. I am 62 years old.

Not a tightness light heart attack but it feels like I may have adhesions in or near the surgical area. Are these reasons for alarm?

Hi. I want a doctor to answer my question.. On the 31st of July 2011 I went swimming with my boyfriend but mid through we decided to go to the changing room.

Hello, I,ve had persistent cough for about 5 months now. i would cough (mostly dry) for a month, and then the cough would stop. I just quit smoking a month ago when I had a chest X-ray done, and they found a 4mm lung nodule, I had a ct scan done right away, and they said the nodule in nonspecific and to follow up in 6-9 month. I havent been coughing all this month, but I developed persistent back pain between my shoulder blades. I have a 10 month old baby, and I would attribute it to carrying him, if it wasnt for cough and the lung nodule. I had sinusitis recently, which never happened before, now my chest feels tight, and I get an urge to cough constantly, but I dont. What could it be, i am worried about cancer... Thank you for your help.

Today I scratched what seemed to be a rather large (not very raised, but large in area) bug bite on my leg (upper thigh). I looked at it, and other than the raised area there was nothing going on -- I didn t remember getting bit, but I assumed it was a bug bite. This evening, I realized that the same area is now sporting a very large, very colorful bruise , and the raised area seems to have left. What might cause this? Could it have been a clot?

I have a burning pain in my left lower abdomen. It seems to get worse as the day goes on. The pain becomes so uncomfortable that I need to lay down about every hour (this helps reduce the pain).

I do have kidney stones and an ovarian cysts (I was aware of that previously) but the pain is much different when those are acting up.


Hi, I had small red bumps on my penis right under the head for about a week. there was no discomfort, itching or burning. They went away on there own and there are no scabs or crust, just a small red spot where it was bumpy. It was also mainly on the left side of the penis and occured after I had a tiny cut from friction during intercourse. now that it is completely healed up (seemingly) i have a slight pressure or tingling sensation in the penis that is barely even noticable. I also have a somewhat sore throat and cough ( I have been chain smoking because of the stress, possibly the cause?) I am uncircumsized and have recently changed body wash and used a new lube.

Hello, I developed a rash on the left side of the back of my neck on Friday - this ended up raising up into bumps. This has since spread to my ear with white bumps/postules. The back of my neck has gone down after being rubbed with fucidine over the past few days and gone down, but the spots have turned into black scabs. I think my ear is about a day or so behind. Any ideas what this is?


My two month old son is suffering from cold & cough. He is coughing several times, specially during early morning hours. Doctor suggested that it is Acute Bronchiolitis (Pneumonia + Asthma). Today he has administered one injection and has prescribed two syrups- 1) Bro-Zedex and 2) Alerid (Cetrizine Hydrochloride Syrup). Is this treatment ok.
