Long-lasting cough
Posted Tuesday April 4 2006, 7:11 pm
I've been ill with a cold/cough/bronchial infection of some sort, but I didn't go to a doctor. Over the past three days I've been taking robitussin during the day and codeine syrup before bed. I've been getting plenty of rest, I've been drinking OJ to help boost my immune system and hot tea with honey to soothe my throat, and I have been staying home from school and not partaking in any strenuous activity. I even have a humidifier in my room on full blast nonstop. I feel fine now -- all exhaustion and dizziness is gone and my throat only hurts in the mornings -- but I have this horrible tickle in my throat that makes me cough ALL DAY LONG and I simply cannot get rid of it. I also have been unable to conquer my runny nose. Any tips??

Crazy?
Posted Friday March 31 2006, 5:46 pm
Lately I've been hearing voices and seeing things that aren't actually there. I don't want to tell anybody because they'll think I'm crazy.
And also my kitchen timer's been talking to me.
This isn't a joke, I know it sounds like it is, but it isn't. I'm really scared about this.
-Possibly Crazy?

Yeast Infection?
Posted Friday March 31 2006, 5:39 pm
I think I may have a yeast infection, but it's a little embarrassing for me because I'm 15 and I live with my dad and brother, and I don't want to tell them because it's embarrassing.
I looked up symptoms online and I actually think I've had the infection for a long time because it's been going on for a very long time, like two years. Is that possible? And what happens if it goes untreated for that long?

I've had this tiny bump under my eyelid for a week or so. It's not painful or anything, but when I rub my fingers over my eyelid I can feel it. What could this be? Is it worth getting a doctor to check it out?

Okay, I have just been treated for depression. I have dealt with it for 4 years now, but now Im so happy. I have found God in my life, and everything is fine mentally. But for some reason I am tired all the time, like I can get alot of sleep and still be soooo tired, like it's fatigue, my eyes are so heavy all the time, also right after I eat I usually feel sick or even more hungry, like I cannot get enough, and I feel just blah and Im loosing weight even though I eat alot.

Today at school, after lunch, my lips started tingling and they've been tingling all day. And when I lick my lips, it tastes metallic-y. I didn't eat anything that I'm allergic too or touch my lips after I touched something that I might be allergic to so I have no idea what it is. What could it be?
