I have suffered from gout for many years often in big toe on either foot, eventually in most joints to the point of swelling and deformity of joints.
Now it has been named as TOFI which is uric crystals forming as lumps on joints on my fingers, toes , knuckles of hand
I have as many as seven lumps formed on one toe all around toe joint, now it has formed an abscess oozing a thick white mucus now with a gaping oozing hole,this is also happening on another toe.
Went to my doc told me it is tofi I know that, then I saw another locum doc to ask for referral to consultant told NO
take antibiotics finished course to no difference at all in desperation went to a podiatrist she is so shocked to see the state my toes are in and put a dressing on them with a urgent referral to my own doc my condition is so bad now that it has been mentioned I will need amputation.
Colon Cancer :: Stools Always Be Thin Or Flat?
I am really nervous. I am having my 1st routine colonoscopy on Tuesday (I'm 50 years old) and I'm really nervous.
Colon cancer does not run in my family.
My stools are in all shapes and sizes. (fat, thin, big, small, flat, round, balls and watery). Sorry to be gross. This morning, my stools were somewhat big but I noticed 1 was semi flat. Twice today after eating, I had diarrhea.
Can nervous make you have diarrhea?
With colon cancer, will the stools always be thin or flat? Sometimes I have healthy stools but other times, my stools are small and thin. Never blood. Sometimes, it's yellow but then it's back to brown.
I don't eat well and I certainly don't get enough fiber in my diet but if (hopefully) my colonoscopy comes back normal, I will eat more fruit and veg and exercise.
I don't have any pain but I know I have a sludge in my gallbladder but for the last few days, I've been having pain which I think is all in my head and my nerves.
Could somebody please let me know what you think. Could it all be my diet and nerves?
Multiple Sclerosis :: Thin Optic Nerve
Just back from an eye appt and was told that my (L) optic nerve is thinning and my field vision test was normal.
I have not had any loss of vision or blurriness other than the blurriness that comes with my migraines. Is it possible to have optic neuritis w/o it affecting your vision?
I have to wait until 7/19 to see my neuro, so I am still waiting to be diagnosed, however, the news I was given this morning makes me lean more towards MS.

Does Chocolate Cause Acne?
I have a lot of problems with acne. They seem to be impossible to get rid of, no matter what I do. I eat a lot of stuff with sugar, like candy bars , chocolate cakes and a lot of soda.

What do you think?
