Not sure if i have this or its Seborrheic dermatitis but my lips seem to be peeling once every few days, the skin turns a yellowish nasty looking color.The peeling has slowed down as it takes a few days for the yellowish stuff to come instead of 1 or 2, and the portion that it appears on my lower lip seems to be slowly shrinking. I never picked my lips until this started albeit its not even that bad now but i am trying to refrain and let the healing take place(even though the dead skin looks like crap). I experienced some intense burning in my upper lip, i still feel some burning pain to this day but very little compared to 2 months ago when i was at my worst.
Right now im on doxycycline,using apple cider vinegar on my lips(as reccomended on here) and 100% pure shea butter as a moistureizer

I have been on metformin for 2 months now.. My first month on it, I ovulated 19 days after starting it and then have af 10 days later. This month I ovulated on day 15… Post ovulation is spotted on days 10 + 12.. It is now 19 days post ovulation (7 days after spotting) and no af and bfn. I have not had any signs of pregnancy or signs of af on the way… I have had headaches off and on for the last week and some slight pain on the right side.. Anyone have any ideas whats going on?
Thanks,
Lisa

I have had Fibromyalgia-Chronic Fatigue Syndrom for many years; however the one thing that I still have no answer for are the nodules that I have on my limbs, back and breastbone. The more pain and fatigue I have the more these nodules hurt. My PCP say they are fat cells. I do not believe it. I believe they are connected to FMS. Does anyone else who has FMS-CFS have nodules, and what has your PCP said about them?
Take care, Des

My husband suffered a stroke on Wed. He had a clot stroke in the back of head. He is extremely dizzy and equilibrium is off. His eyes are not focusing 100%. No paralysis. The DR says this kind of stroke takes a long time to get over and may never get full balance back. He is 58. Has anybody here know anything about this type of stroke. ??? He also said it was an ischemic type. TIA. He is being put on Aggrenox and symvastatin. He takes 10mg paxil but they may up that 20mg for anxiety attacks. Any info appreciated.

I am wondering if I could get some feed back on if this sounds like Post Nasal Drip or some type of allergy symptom I have been experiencing.
I notice my nose is (always Stuffy) and I have this horrible scratchy drip feeling in my throat. And when I talk I feel the need (sorry so gross) to clear my throat of phlegm. If I do spit it out it is a clear foamy like phlegm. But the feeling of a lump of phlegm in my throat is getting quite annoying. At the end of the day my throat begins to feel sore from I guess the drip or phlegm feeling. At times I feel like I could gag on the phlegm that is how constricting it feels. But talking does make the problem worse.
I also have some ear issues, lightheadedness, crackling sounds in ears, tension headaches, fatigue, and over all a heavy head, drunk feeling!!! I do have TMJD But I don’t think it is related.
Does this sound like post nasal drip, or an allergy problem? I don’t notice a difference from the summer, winter, spring or fall. I always have it. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank You in advance.

Hi all!
I hope that I can find others who are suffering from what I have.
In 2004 I suffereda an anaphalactic shock from taking an Ibrufen tablet and after having some sensitivity tests done I found that had sensitivity to Yeast, hazelnuts and Ibrufen.
Recently I have started having multiple lip, chin, cheek, hand foot, swelling episodes from multiple sources that seem to many to count,I now seem to be allergic to almonds which I didn’t before and to vitamin C!!!
over the last 3 weeks dizzyness, lethargy and constant headaches and sinus pain has joined the party…It’s marvelous really!!
Is anyone else suffering from such varied swellings and what can be done.
thanks

Since I’m highly allergic to dust mites, as well as my kitties, I’m wondering if there is any difference in mattress encasings? I’ve seen some attractive expensive ones online, but then saw some in retail stores like Walmart and Target for much cheaper. Is there a difference, other than the way they feel? I already picked up some pillows ones for cheap at Walmart and do notice I’m sleeping better. I’m actually using my tax refund to do all this and still have to buy a HEPA vacuum and so forth, so money is a bit of an issue. Thanks!

I have been having heavy discharge for about a year, but it just now got so bad that I can’t even wear thongs anymore. I just want to know if this is normal or what.

Magnolia wrote a post in january saying that Depakote is notorious for hair loss and to take zinc and selenium, that those also enhance immune system.
What brand? Where do I get it, does it have a ton of othr things in it?? I actually noticed hair loss on Clonopin on a LOW dose and then worse hair loss on Depakote. I’ve heard to take D and E? That was from a doctor, HA!
I’d appreciate knowing what brand you took, and how long it took to see less hair coming out in the shower! I have long hair and it is everywhere around the house . … .
