Kristi A asked:


my sons appendix burst prior to his arriving at the hospital and he was left in er for 10 hours before having surgery. ended up in the hospital over a month and had to have part of his colon removed during a exploratory surgery. over 1000 pages of medical records show he was on pain meds like dolodid for 3 weeks and then on methadone after that. his doctor was very resistant and rude during this time and failed to do any of his 90 day after care obligation and also is no longer a doctor at the hospital.we had a lawyer who dumped us right after he filed the suit but right before a court date. i have appeared once in court as a temporary stand in attorney but on october 20, 2008 we have another court date in which i must have council present to represent us or the case will be closed for good as this will be the end of my 60 day extension that was granted to us by the judge during our last court hearing. this is a few of many details about this story and im sure that if given a chance the records will speak for themselves in our defense proving that we are right and that the doctor as well as the er are guilty of not giving my son the prompt and thorough care he needed while in their facility.

Something is wrong, and it's not going away >.< I have had basic tests done, but nothing more... I don't think they are taking me seriously (both doctors that I've been to, and one is an internist). I'm 18, and after taking antibiotics in september/october (2 were full-course, one was only for a couple of days because it messed up my gut >.<) I have been a mess, this all started after taking that medicine but I have no idea if its related:

1. Chest tightness I've had since the middle of October has NOT gone away.
2. Abdominal pain that goes back and forth between my left side and right side, very rarely is it both sides at the same time. The left side is extremely tender to the touch when it's hurting.
3. Entire rib cage feels inflamed, it hurts pretty bad when pressed on.
4. Worst pain is at both sides of my rib cage under my breasts, as well as in the middle of my chest right at the top of my breasts.
5. A few weeks ago I started to have vaginal pain/itching/discomfort and slightly odorful/yellow discharge. I got a cream to take care of that and it went away, but now 2 weeks later it's back again (though not as severe)
6. Strange white patches on my left breast, which is surrounded by what looks like a giant zit breakout. I've had that for a few years but it's getting worse and worse (the zit-like bumps, not the white patches).
7. Pain has radiated to my upper and lower back, and is extremely uncomfortable sometimes at night.
8. Occasional pains in arms, hands, elbows, and especially the knees and ankles. It flares up then goes away.
9. More fatigued. I also have sinus stuff going on and when that flares up I feel like I hardly have any energy at all, and now my headaches/pressure feel worse.
10. Trouble urinating. It was every so often now it's all the time. It's not painful, it's just like I can't relax enough to go.
11. Ovarian pain or colon pain? My left one tends to hurt right before my period, but now it's hurting more after too, and it's much worse then usual. Though this feels worse when I have gas/need to have a BM, which makes me wonder if its colon pain rather then the ovary. I've had a lot of that since taking that medicine, and i've only had a handful of "normal" BMs since October, if that many. For awhile I also had gray/super pale BMs, but I quit taking the Nexium I was taking and that went away and never came back.

I have anxiety, but I have not had a flare up in awhile, plus when I have anxiety it's more of my neck that tenses up, and it hasn't been tense/painful in awhile now. They keep saying its all anxiety but I've been relaxed and having fun and had times where I don't think about all of this, but it's not going away. When I have a real panic attack, I don't have pain, just more the tightness of chest, but my chest feels tight all the time no matter how I feel or what I am doing. I'm really sick of that, and if it was really anxiety you think it would wax and wane depending on how I'm feeling but it doesn't.

I want to find a doctor who's going to take me seriously, and look into all possible causes, even though I'm just 18. Someone else suggest fibro myalgia (which I would like to be tested for) but the doctors say I'm not old enough to have it, but anyone can have it, at any age. They tested me for stuff like RA and juvenile diabetes but that all came back negative.

I'm angry and miserable because I feel like this, and I'm tired of taking medicine, especially because none of it works. I want someone to really look into what might be causing all of this and see if they can find out what's going on. I get plenty of sleep, I eat pretty well, drink a lot of water, and get exercise, I'm also not overweight. I gained some weight when I started feeling bad but I feel terrible when I try to exercise like I was when I kept my weight off. I was doing an hour or 2 a day and now 30 minutes can leave me feeling crappy depending on what I'm doing....

If there is a certain kind of doctor I should be looking for I would like to know.... I feel like I'm old and sick and tired, I can't stand feeling like this anymore!!!

I also live in the Dallas (not ft worth) area, if anyone knows someone to recommend around there.

Natural Remedies for Constipation

bob b asked:


My bowels are unstimulated and stubbornly refuse to let my stool escape the depths of my colon. What to do? It hurts when I sit down, and I'm afraid that I may experience an internal colon explosion. Please help, I'm so scared, I haven't successfully made use of my loo in almost 2 months. I cried yesterday on the toilet for two hours because it was so painful. I'm desperate, because that black tyrant you call Obama has disrupted my health care services.
Thanks. (Ouchies! I just sat down)

warrior asked:


Now my sister has cancer in her colon, liver, lungs, and brain after she went through chemotherapy for cancer in one of her breasts. And now her doctors can offer no hope??? One doctor could only place my sister in his prayers... My sister has four children, too???

My sister, a widow of a disabled veteran from the Vietnam War, was abandoned by the Va her initial care providers and she was turned over to her private insurers and other health care providers... During the time she sought other help to battle her cancer, it is obvious that her cancer had plenty of time to spread into her vital organs... Is this the kind of health care that is good for Americans?

mudduck754 asked:


Having a slight problem lately,
Since my surgery I have had to wear an ostomy bag till the next surgery.
And I do mention it to the ladies I have been dating,
And about more half of them are cool about it as long as they dont have to see it,And then there are the ones who just dont care,and a few that want to see it ..
But I had one that just totally freaked out about it,
That I shouldnt even be trying to meet someone,While I wear this thing.
Come on now,
I am the same person I was before my colon exploded
and I almost died in the emergency surgery.
I dont wear the thing hanging out where everyone can see it,and no one can smell it but me,
And they are putting me back together in the next couple of months
and you dont know its there unless I say something about it ..or it leaks.always a fun time for all

khjunior1980 asked:


My father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in oct 04'. He went through a procedure where they take some of his insides our and re-tie. i heard it was called the whipple procedure or something like that. They were only able to take half of the cancerous tumor out and the other half they were hoping treatments would take care of it.

he is still alive and the recent news is that the treatments for the remaining cancer caused it to shrink 50%. so thats good new. the downfall is that they found a small bit in his colon, it is early that it can possibly be taken out. since it has been 2 1/2yrs fighting this, is it possible to be able to beat this?

my father is very possitive, the doctors are astounded that he has survived this long. Even the doctor who did his surgery called my fathers current doctor to see when he had passed and was shocked that he was still alive.

Can we beat this? thanks.

Anomaly asked:


I haven't been taking very good care of myself & this weekend my friends & I went out (which is a rare occasion for me). So I want to completely cleanse/detox my system of alcohol, toxins just a complete fresh start. I am really trying to avoid the colon option...if possible.

Matt C asked:


I have recently had some digestive issues and feel that I should check my colon. However, I have NO health care. I'm a little perturbed, and scared. Can you all give me any advice?
You guys aren't getting the question. I have NO health care. Is there anyway to get a colonoscopy for free or, more realistically, with a deductible of sorts? That is the question.

autumn wolf asked:


I have a friend in West Haven Ct., and I live in Texas. She was diagnosed last year with breast cancer, and had to have a total masectomy. Then after that, her husband left her. She moved in with her Mom, and then her Mother developed Altzymers. Now Yvonne has her to care for, and tries to take care of herself as well. She financially does not have much, so I once in a while will help her with something she needs. Now, last night she called me crying sayting the doctors found a tumor in he colon. She is pretty sure that the cancer has spread. Can I ask anyone out there to pray for her. Im asking all my friends, and I thought it wont hurt if I ask you out there as well! Any advice for her or suggestions?
