hi i have visited my gp because of some symptoms i have been suffering and he sent me for some tests, my period is lasting much longer than it should be but alot lighter, i am constanly exhausted as though i have never slept even with 10 hrs sleep a night and my sex drive is none existant now, im only 26 and these symptoms havnt happened gradually they have just all of a sudden appeared a few weeks ago. i had blood tests and the gp said he was testing my b 12 and also testing my thyroid. i rang for my results yesterday and the receptionist told me something showed up in my blood tests and the dr wants to see me but i have to wait a whole week for an appointment before i can find out what the problem is! can any one give me any more insight as to any of the other symptoms for either of these conditions or which it could most likely be, im only 26 and im not overweight or anything like that im roughly about 7 and a half to 8 stone and have been for yrs. thanks in advance its going to annoy me having to wait a whole week.

i have just been informed by my doctor that i have alow kidney threshold to glucose, so whatever sugar i take in my body is just getting rid of so i have no energy source at all ive also dropped from almost 8st to 6st 9 nowi did have my first child 7 months ago but im sure this is not the cause of my sudden weight loss. my gp does not know how to solve the problem and is sending me to see a specialist but does any 1 know what the treatment could be. i did have chemotherapy 4 yrs ago which they say could have caused this im not sure if this would make a difference ot any treatment.

ive had a blood test done and my blood sugar levels came back normal but when my gp checked my urine sample it had very high sugar levels he sed this could be some kind of renal threshold problem caused by chemotherapy i had a couple of yrs ago he has now sent me for another blood test(non fasting)this time to double check for diabetes again i have a 7 month old son and constantly had sugar in my water with him but they didnt know why. could it still be diabetes, and if not what else cud it be nd how wud it be sorted

hi there my mam has a 5 month old baby girl she was born 5 weeks early, she has been progressing very well smiling gurgling lifting her head etc but lately thats all stopped she wont smile any more, shes stopped gurglignt he only thing she still does is hold her own head, she hasnt found her hands or feet yet and cant hold anything, if you try to giver her something to hold she just hits it with her hand she cant actually grab it, my mam has spoke to her health visitor about this and they just keep saying its because she was premature but my son is only 3 months old and does all of these things my mam is quite concerned but no1 seems to be listening to her, ive bought her feet finders etc to see if that will help and nothing works is she just a really lazy baby or could there be something else

my little boy is 3 months old and is starting to teethe he has all the normal symptoms slavering alot and chewing everything he can, he recently stopped taking so much of his milk he was drinking 6 ozs every 3 hours now he is only taking 4 ozs is this just part of teething he also has diarreah i am seeing my doctor later today but would like your opinions, after 4 ozs of milk he is still hungry you can hear his little tummy rumbling but he cant take any more milk and i cant try him with baby rice or anything until he is 4 months old any1 got any ideas if this is because he can only hold so much in his stomach and possibly needs something more filling or if it is just his teeth, he is my first baby so ive never experienced this before

if he does take more than 4 ozs he brings it back up as well

hi im asking this question for a friend, shes about 9 weeks pregnant and her boyfriend has just caught chicken pox she has had it before but is worried about what will happen if she catches it again, she hasnt yet met her midwife as where we live you dont get one until your 12 weeks, she has asked my advise as i had a baby 3 months ago but i never came into contact with any on who had chicken pox so didnt need to know if anything could happen. i have checked on google for her and it says the risk is very small under 13 weeks but i thought i would check adn see if any1 has actually experienced this for themselves any help would be appreciated thanks
