If it does progress to Rheumatic Fever, what are the odds of the Rheumatic Fever involving the heart? I know there is no way to know the exact number, but as someone who works in health-care, what is your estimation?




my 13 year old girlfriend has polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in every joint in her body. the medications she takes aren’t really working for her. does anyone know any medicines, foods, techniques, or anything at all that can help with arthritis pain? she’s in so much pain, all the time, it breaks my heart..

please please help us.
thank you so much in advance




my friends daughter has rheumatoid arthritis severely and she is ten years old. it breaks my heart to see her lying on the couch in pain and to not be able to do things other kids her age can do. she has a hard time writting and doing a lot of things that put pressure on her bones and joints. she loves doing crafts and i was wondering if anyone knew of any special tools or things i could buy her to make life more comfortable/ any ideas???
she has the arthritis because she had meningitis lime from a tick. its only going to get worse and i was thinking of things i could buy her that she could use like special shoes or scissors or wrist bands or something to make her life more comfortable







Research indicates that taking in Omega-3 is great for the heart but better if taken in when actually eating fish. I bought a dietary supplement and misplaced it in the back of a cupboard. Does anyone know if I’ll get sick from the fish oil since it’s past the expiration date?

I take 1 aspirin every day, as I heard it’s good for the heart. Aspirin is a blood thinner, so Im curious if it has any serious side effects, like internal bleeding? How about hemorrhoids? I have the first hemorrhoid of my life, and it started only after a couple weeks of daily aspirin.

How long does it take for HIV to turn into aids?




Ok, well today is World Aids day. I hope you all got tested. But, i was wondering, if someone who has a heart issue, or already has a bad immune system, how long does it take for hiv to turn into aids for them? can it be less then a year?




I have begun to take Omega-3 Fish Oil pills for my heart and my wife is taking them for our baby. When we take them, however, they cause significant gas and upset stomach. Is there something we can take with the pills to keep that from happening so we can get the health benefits without the upset stomach?

I have hyper-thyroidisum and my heart is in a very weak state right now. I have been almost 4 weeks without treatment and have been in the ER 4 times last week. As of Friday I have been on a bata blocker 3 times a day and tapazole twice a day. However my heart seems more weak today than it has in a few days. I also have had a sharp pain in my chest and light headedness. I called the doctor on call about 30 mins ago and she told me to cut my bata blocker in half and take a half in the morning and the other at night. Thats cutting my dose drasticlly. Going from 3 pills daily to 1 pill daily concerns me, exspecially when she is not my doctor. What should I do?




My beautiful 13-year-old greyhound was diagnosed with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) about a week ago. I am reading a lot about K9 immunity online, and am wondering if anyone has tried it or knows anything about it. It’s supposed to be an all-natural immunity boosting product. I am willing to try pretty much anything to make her better. She is my heart.




My friend is incredibly sick right now, and her parents won’t take her to the doctor(they think she’s faking it). She constantly has a fever, migraines and her heart has been hurting her lately.

Is there any cancers or disease that could be causing this? Please help.




I have a fever of 98.9 at the time, and i’ve been pregnant for 2 months and this hasn’t happened before. I am having chills and I feel very nauseated, also I have a very bad headache. Also I feel as if my heart is skipping beats, it also feels as if it’s a little hard for me to breath.

What should my dog eat when he has diabetes?




My dog is a Jack Russell Terrier and is 11 years old. He weighs about 11lbs. I have just found out that he has diabetes. My family is heart broken. Is there a diet my dog can eat (preferably Holistic) to help with his diabetes. He would need to take insulin shots twice a day. He may also have Cushings disease. Also, how much and how often should he eat food?
