Hi I have a quick question. I have had a sort of dull pain, almost like a bruise, but no sign of anything. It is on my left buttock close to where my leg meets up with my body near my anus. Is this a sign that I could have herpes? I kind of looke up on the internet my symptoms and it mentioned herpes, so I am really scared. I have had no other symptoms. Can you help me?

I was watching the discovery health channel last afternoon and it was on asthma and some of the allergies that set it off. please excuse my spelling. It reminded me of some of the postings/replies on this site on this forum.

Hi everyone hope everyone is having somewhat of a pain free day.
Just curious and wanted to know if anyone has ever had urinary problems? I am having terrible spasms when I try to urinate. Went to my normal doctor and was told I don’t have a infection. She believed it was spasms and put me on Pyridium (200mg) three times a day for just two days, and then a antibotic just in case.
I have a lot of spasms due to the RSD just wondering if anyone has had it spread to their bladder?
Please help if you can.

At birth i was diagnosed with mild cereabral paulsy.
Its a condition that effects the brain and body.
Ive suffered with headaches most of my childhood.
Also muscle twitches and spazms and balance problems.

So now that ive been diagnosed with labrynthitis. The combination of the two is just awful. My headaches have returned in full-force. I cant hardly eat anything anymore without worrying about vomiting it-up.

When i sleep i get this odd spazm at the base of my head where the head and spine connect. And ive never had kneck problems before. But now i do. Ive never had
high anxiety and panic-attacks and now i do.

My sleeping patterns are just strange. Ive been sleeping during the day and up at night. Or sleeping one hour one time and nine hours straight the next.
Sometimes are longer than others.

Foods i used to love i cant have anymore. Im a huge coffee lover! And now ive been reduced to drinking decaf that has no kick. The taste of sugar and salt i cant stand. My diet has been reduced to utterly bland foods.

Im also sensative to oders/noises/lights.
The smell of mint gags me. So now i just brush my teeth with baking soda. I also cant sleep unless i have the television on. The sound of car- engines/laundry machines/The dog barking makes my temples pound like industrial pistons.

But this may seem strange. But this labrynthitis has made me closer to my family and freinds. Its made me craving peoples company. I cant stand being by myself anymore. And i used to love it.

My film viewing habits have changed to. I used to be a big horror film fan. Now i crave laughter and comedy.
Maybe its my minds way of helping me cope with labrynthitis????????? I guess humor heals.

Sorry about this long post. But nothing else in my life has controlled me like this awful thing called
lABRYNTHITIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [Makes angry sound and face].

I am wondering if anyone else out there has this problem. My milk flows really strongly and I think it’s making my 2.5 week old have a problem feeding. He acts as if it hurts him or something when he’s trying to nurse. He’ll latch on for a few seconds then push back with his head and arms. He’s suprizingly strong and sometimes it’s hard to keep him still. I don’t know what to do to make it more comfortable for him to nurse.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I really need some advice. DD is 7 weeks and I would really like to get her in her crib in her room by the reccomended 3 months.There’s a problem though 21 month DS won’t go to the Big Boy Bed. He likes to go in and pretend like he will sleep blankie, fan, nuk ect but speedily says awake and jumps off.I tried putting him in already asleep last nightwith a gate at the door he did well until 5:30 this morning when he realized he wasn’t in the crib then was very panicked. I praised him for sleeping there today but he wouldn’t go again . Any suggestions?
