possible infection
Hi trose,
If you're feeling that uncomfortable, get to your nearest ER and forget the funeral. Cat 
You may have an infection.....
Have you tried calling your PCP and asking for some antibiotics? Ifyou have an infection or abscess, the antibiotics will at least bring down the pain once the infection is taken care of.
That being said, if there is any way you can find a dentist to work with giving you a root canal and making paymennts, it would be better to save your tooth than have it extracted. Once it's gone, it's gone.....this way you still have a tooth, which is very important for a lot of reasons.
I feel for you. My husband has had a root canal on just about every tooth in his mouth.....we knew he would need a root canal every time the pain began.
I have a question about an infection
I woke you yesterday with my entire head and face hurting. I felt sure this was a sinus infection but really didn't have anything to take except OTC meds. By yesterday evening I was having a lot of pain between my shoulder blades. The only relief I got was lying on my side. Throughout the night the pain spread through my entire back. I haven't done anything to strain my back. Basically took it easy most of yesterday. I tossed and turned all night becasue everytime I could get comfortable it would only last a few minutes. Using a heating pad seemed to make it worse. About the only way I can get comfortable is sitting up but hunched over with my arms crossed in front of me. It is possible for an infection to spread to my back like this. Help...I have to go to a funeral this afternoon.
uterine infection
Has anyone ever had a uterine infection? I had one 4 years ago and then recently I had another. I took the 10 days of antibiotics and then in a few days it started to come back. I have never seen a more persistent type of infection. When I had it 4 years ago I had to have my antibiotics refilled 3 times to get rid of it. I was wondering if anyone else has had this.
Probably a yeast infection - sm
I am overweight and have a pannus which I need to keep an eye on it underneath gets quite irritated and once I started to get a yeast infection I believe. I just used the athletes foot cream on it for a couple days and it cleared right up. I hope to one day (after I lose about 80 pounds) have it removed and have an abdominoplasty.....just need to save up $7-8K for the surgery as my insurance won't pay for that, LOL.
undiagnosed HIV infection in
Maybe no deaths in US yet because they were all kids who had been on spring break.
Maybe deaths in Mexico are from sexually active young adults HIV infected, but not diagnosed.
Just a guess.
Point out he can get a blood infection and die - sm
if he does not get his teeth taken care of. He must have some rotten breath too, yuk. Guess you don't do much kissing either. I went out on 1 date with a guy with bad teeth, gross, I did not want to kiss him goodnight and barely did, never dated him again because I was so grossed out.
I had a sinus infection a few weeks ago - it's gone now, but (sm)
ever since then I've had the BPV. That's what I think it is. Worst when I first lie down in bed. Goes away after a few seconds.
What does a kidney infection feel like? sm
I have had UTIs in the distant past but never a kidney infection....wondering if I have one now though.
A 'yeast infection' from a condom?' Is this even possible?...
Is there something more going on in this story?
I hope she got rid of her yeast infection.
Who infected whom?
And why is she acting so hysterically?
I'm not sure it would be classified as a "yeast" infection, but you can
get vaginal irritations from almost anything including the spermicide or lubricant used on a condom! Trust me, I know! Especially if you are sensitive to those sorts of thing. I have gotten "yeast" infections from changing detergents, soaps, etc.
Also, my niece, who is 17, recently dropped the "I'm pregnant" bombshell. She is allergic to latex. A year or so ago when she started dating her baby daddy she kept getting these vaginal irritations, cysts that had to be opened and drained. Nobody could figure out why she was getting these. Of she swore she wasn't having sex. Uhem, long story short, apparently she didn't realize that condoms are made of latex. When they figured it out, they stopped using them with plans for her to get on the pill, but you all know how that story goes. She never could get to the doctor, blah, blah, blah.
So yeah anything is possible, but with alternate methods of birth control readily available to teenagers today, a yeast infection from condoms is still no excuse.
I've definitely had a yeast infection with antibiotic use...
When I had to take antibiotics for a tooth infection, I had to also get Monostat for the horrible yeast infection I got. I don't think I've ever had one other than that, so still don't think it's linked to my liquid fabric softener.
Anyone else get a foot spa pedicure and end up with a fungal infection?
I am horrified to say the least. I never, ever go get manicures or pedicures because I am aware of all the nasty germs that lurk in places like that, but one of my friends wanted to go and I went with her. I have to say, it was a lot of fun and very relaxing, but when we were leaving I saw their health score framed on the wall. It was an 83!!! That was 4 months ago. The infection is only on my great toe on 1 foot, so for that I am glad. So now it is 3 months of Lamisil and LFTs every month.  Anyone else ever experience this?
Cold/sinus infection with beginning of period?
Okay, here's the deal. The day before my period, for the last year or so, I get a horrendously bad cold/sinus infection/flu-type process. It usually goes away about a day or two after my period. I have never ever had this happen before and its really bad this month. I have all the symptoms... stuffiness, red runny eyes, runny stuffy nose, pounding headache, throat like daggers, etc. It started as postnasal drip yesterday and I thought ohhh great... here we go. Needless to say I was up most of last night in complete tears because of the pain of it all and not being able to swallow at all. I have tried researching on the internet about this happening, but can't find any information. Has anyone heard of this or had this happen? I just want to stop it. truly, I would take the worst god awful cramps over this torture. I have had this both on and off the pill and I am only 31. Any information would be appreciated as I know what a wealth of information our community could be. Unfortunately, I am in Europe and so I can't go to my GP easily. The doctors here don’t do anything about anything unless its major either and I know they will brush it off as some silly sinus infection, but it happens every month and goes away in 3 days on its own, so it can't be a run of the mill thing. Any advice is welcome. I go home to the US in 6 months and I can wait if I have to, but maybe some angel out there knows something to help. I have tried tons of medications and herbal things/natropathic and nothing works except my period being established.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the icky topic. ;)
