Pregnancy :: Horrible Swelling That Won't Go Away
Jun 30, 2014
My whole pregnancy I have had a little swelling in my hands, feet, lower legs and ankles.. But I've never had anything like this with ANY of my other pregnancies, just a little swelling that comes and goes. This is now different n has gotten bad the passed couple days I can no longer see where my ankles are, my feet are so swollen it hurts to walk on,them,or bend them. I've tried eating bananas, I don't add salt when cooking, tried to soak my hands and feet, even tried putting my feet up..

I had a miscarriage feb 12. It was my first pregnancy. I bled heavily until March 6. Me and my fianc had intercourse early this morning and during sex I noticed a horrible smell. I did not realize however that it was coming from my vagina until I got up went to the bathroom an had brownish bloody looking discharge. It's very light and seems to be going away. However the foul odor is not. And I have slight cramping. Nothing serious. I went to the er on March 1 Bc my fiance convinced me to take a pregnancy test and it came back positive. So just being cautious and staying in the safe side we went to the hospital. Both hoping there was still a baby even though I had been bleeding ridiculously for two weeks. A ultrasound reviled that there was no baby and it was just hormones left over. They told me my hormone levels were where they would be at one week pregnant. I was 6 weeks when I lost the baby. So is it possible that the line on the test is still just left over hormones? Or could I in fact be pregnant again? And so soon? And what is the cause of this discharge and odor? I had not noticed it until intercourse. And me and my fianc are very sexual active. And I did not notice it the night before or anytime before so. What could this be? Has anyone experienced this before?

About 2 years ago I noticed a knot pop up under my right jaw bone. I thought it was a swollen lymph node, and it only really hurt when I swallowed and would start swelling back up every couple months on and off. Recently the knot had been swollen up more, I can always feel it, but it will swell up bigger when I am eating at times. Along with that for the past couple months you can see a sort of swelling or lumps and redness in the back of my throat ( I don't have tonsils) but that is also on the right side. This hasn't gone away at all, even when my throat isn't hurting. I also have swollen glands under my tongue that sometimes swell more and hurt when I eat. My family doctor has put me on two antibiotics, and I did test and was treated for type C strep, but no swelling went away after that.

I have horrible muscle spasms in my back, sometimes they seem like cramps though. I turned 18 about a month ago, will a doctor prescribe me a muscle relaxer for this? Is there a different class of medication to look into that might be more effective? My dad recommended baclofen. I have read about some health complications using this though. Not asking how to get a RX. WILL they write me one or blow me off as an 18 year old drug seeker, and WILL it help (possibly). I've done trigger point injections, deep tissue PT for years and nothing helps. The problem comes back like a week after stopping and my insurance only covers x appointments. My therapist noticed my ribs keep elevating up and need popped back in place. This may be due to muscle spasms? I'm just tired. Tired of pain, doctors not doing anything, and nothing changing.

I'm 21 years old and yesterday (sept. 28) was my first time I smoked weed and I took 4 puffs of it with two other friends. I had this horrible trip and really do not want to ever smoke weed ever again. It was scary and I felt like I was really going to die. I went to sleep and had my full 8 hours of sleep and woke today (sept. 29) feeling better, but I still feel strange. I can hardly concentrate. I'm experiencing paranoia and anxiety and according to some posts, I guess it's from the THC level intake. I probably have low tolerance since It's my first time smoking it. I'm really scared that whatever it is I'm feeling or going through is permanent. Should I call the hospital? Will I be charged with marijuana use?

i am seeing a psychologist and she says that i should wait another 3 months and then only try for anti-depressants. I thought that being 3 months on THE pill is not long.

A few days ago I tried the NuvaRing for the first time. The first two days were fine. Then yesterday I was at work and I got this horrible migraine and then I turned pale. I was nauseous and dizzy, it was so bad that I slightly fainted and my supervisor told me to go lay down. When I got home I had a low grade fever and abdominal pain. I took that damn ring out. Birth control has never done this to me. I have been in bed trying to sleep off the fevers. I think I may have an infection. I'll be calling the doctor Monday.

I shower everyday or every other day, and my vagina smells like 1 day old urine, or lard. I am so embarrassed to say the least. I have tried Vaginal washes, Douching, just water, and nothing seems to get rid of this horrible smell.
Can someone please give me a solution as to what I should be smelling down there. Some women smell like flowers, and some women have no smell at all?

diarrhea and horrible cramps. The bleeding has been going on for 3 weeks, the discharge has always kind of been there and the diarrhea just started about a week ago. Pregnancy of course is possible but after 2 years we kind of don't think of that anymore. My ob/gyn isn't available until the first week of february and I'm a little on edge. I have been stressed over a few things.

I have been experiencing horrible head pain for the past 6 months. I've been to a neurologist and had multiple tests (MRI's/CT scans) performed and everything has come back normal. The only thing that has come up has been "lordosis" in my neck and "slight changes in C5 and C6" in my neck. My headaches started back in May when I was moving out of my apartment and seemed to have strained myself. I have been going to a PT and that has not helped. Additionally, I have had 2 nerve blocks, trigger point injections, and dry needling, none of which have helped. I am scheduled to get botox injections in my neck and lower head to hopefully help. Additionally, I am going to a neck/spine specialist. Both happening next week. Can anyone relate to the pain that I have been having? My pain seems to start in my neck and travel all over my head, on one side of head to the other, behind eyes, behind ears, etc. It feels like a stinging, uncomfortable pain. Someone please help, give suggestions, relate to me!! Feeling desperate and feeling like my head will never get better.

I have a rotten potato smell coming from my vagina. I have been treated for bacteria vaginosis for over a year now, on and off. The smell is back almost immediately. I had a pelvic pig skin graft put in 4 years ago. I am thinking the pig was alive when implanted and has now died inside of me. Seriously the smell is horrible and my life is ruined. If there's no cure or help then my life is over. No women wants to live like this. Time will tell. My mental stability right now is at wits end. I am so done with life if this smell doesn't go away

So I'm on day 28 of starting Zoloft & I'm feeling worse than before I started the meds. I'm sleeping okay but having horrible vivid dreams. I've had a few good days but now if I don't feel anxious I feel depressed & Iv zero enthusiasm for anything 😞 I'm unsure whether to persevere or up my dose.

Having cold chills, then horrible sweating. This goes on all day for me. I could not stay in grocery store to the cold, but by the time I arrived home, I was covered with sweat. The sweat is like you just came out of the shower.I have increased my fluids and am drinking diet decaf ice tea. This is especially when I am on the first dose 20 mg hydrocortisone. But it happens all day, and at night, I wake up sweating. Then, I get cold.

I have already read a lot of good information about fatty liver and other people's symptoms. I am not sure what is going on with me but thought I would see if anyone can relate or help. I was actively working out my abs doing core exercises for a couple of weeks and noticed maybe (trying to remember) a day later, horrible pain on my right side under my rib cage. I was also diagnosed with a fatty liver about a year or so ago. When I was first diagnosed, I had a mild pain (more annoying than painful) and thus underwent an ultrasound. My triglycerides are pretty high and HDL and LDL are a little off but not too bad. Everything else seems pretty good. I haven't really changed my diet since I was diagnosed and do have my starbucks fraps almost daily, but did start a strict exercise with cardio and walking almost everyday.
Getting back to the pain, it started about 5 days ago and yesterday I thought it was going away. It is still there today. I don't know if I strained it, it is my gallbladder, or my fatty liver. I am so afraid of doctors and don't want to go. The pain is more intense when I move my torso to the left and to the right.
Can anyone help or give your opinions as to what could be going on or if they have the same symptoms.

I'm new to this website just hoping it can keep me more positive while I get through this. I've had generalised anxiety disorder for years now but I've only recently tried medication. I was on 20mg fluoxetine for nearly 8 weeks, the first week and a half was awful with side effects then I just felt the same as I did before taking medication which obviously wasn't as bad as the side effects. I agreed with my doctor to up the dose to 40mg last week after just under 8 weeks because it wasn't really doing much. Since I upped the dose 3 days ago I've been feeling spaced out/drowsy not quite with it nearly all the time which is something I experienced when I first started taking the 20mg and I'm not happy about it I hate feeling like this I'm scared of feeling as bad as before. I was wondering if people could please tell me how long they had side effects after increasing their dose if they had them? And whether 20mg didn't work for you but when 40mg did?

I know that it's known that lipitor has the side-effect of muscle tiredness and aches. Has anyone else have to deal with this? Man it's off the hook. I almost am paralyzed fro, lipitor. This horrible and I would like to talk to someone who's been through it. This is a very under-rated affliction IMO. I've been tested and it doesn't look like I have the Rabadolosis<sp? That spelling isn't even close. I was very scared before I realized what was causing this severe problem.. Now I know that lipitor has helped a lot of people, it brought my cholesterol down a bunch very quickly. Frankly i would rather have high cholesterol. I did have a stroke at the end of November, small, deep in the cerebellum. Hence the lipitor.
