Is this something serious going on with my body? Please help!?
Question by : Is this something serious going on with my body? Please help!?
I am 20 and on Monday. I originally went to my doctor for a swollen lymph node on the left side of my neck that I discovered 4 months ago without any symptoms that would indicate lymphoma except for the lump, and that same morning I was to go to the doctor I came down with a sore throat.
Anyway he checked my swollen lymph node and prescribed me antibiotics, asked me a series of question on if I have allergies and referred me to get a chest X-ray to make sure its not lung cancer, took a blood test to check for infection or Leukemia. He also told me Worse Case Scenario would be the “C” word like lymphoma, Lung cancer, or Leukemia and I NEVER smoke or drink. Anyway the same day I came from the doctor on Monday I found two more swollen Lymph nodes one above my collar bone and the other about one is about 2 inches from my original lymph node.
Also today I have been having a congested nose and blowing out mucus, my throat is STILL sore, but not as bad as Monday and I have been having a sore dull pain on the left side of my tongue(not the surface of tounge) all the way in the back on the side and when I looked at my tongue its like I have some swelling on that side as well as some dark veiny streak and when I touch it it hurts. No pus it coming out it just hurts a little and is causing my teeth on the left side to hurt as well as my throat on the left side. I don’t know if this is normal? My jaw also hurts on the left side, but I’ve already had my wisdom teeth taken out last year cause I use to get this same pain when my wisdom teeth were coming in, but it stopped when I had them taken out. Now the pain returned a little. I don’t know what’s going? It’s just that since the doctor told me the terrifying news on what MIGHT be I have just been freaking out like crazy! Am I dying? Is this something serious? Am I truly over reacting? IS this normal?
I have been taking Advil for the pain which has been helping ALOT with the pain

They work with any patients with temporary or permanent problems. This could be from any type of car accident, brain injury, loss of oxygen, throat or mouth surgery and more. Any person who has trouble breathing, swallowinng, speaking, eating, or drinking can have a speech pathologist on their medical team. Infants with sucking or breathing problems, people with cerebral palsy and more.
Good luck.

Answer by jessie 
Ur lymph nodes draw out infection from ur body they take in the infection which makes them swell, now it sounds like u have a throat infection which is causing the nodes , cancer doesn’t tend to affect young people seen as ur 20 u should be fine also apparently cancer ‘doesn’t hurt’ ur doctor seems a bit dramatic to tell u that with out knowing anything else/ results.
There are so many reasons why lymph node can be raised very few of which are cancer related.
So relax I’m sure U’ll be fine 
I have had this scare before

Q&A: Use of human body in traditional Japanese medicine?
Question by James B: Use of human body in traditional Japanese medicine?
I read an article of Professor Tsuyoshi awaya :http://homepage1.nifty.com/awaya/hp/ronbun/r010.html
Say: The old Chinese pharmaceutical work “Bencaowangmu”(1596) describes how most parts of the human body, including bones, nail, hair, dandruff, earwax, impurities on the teeth, feces, urine, sweat, organs etc. can be used as medications against various ailments. The utilization of mummies as medicine was in fashion in Europe from the 15th to the 17th century where, it is said, human fat taken from the dead body was also utilized as medicine. There are examples of the brain, liver, lungs, heart, bone, flesh, and fetus being utilized as medicine in Japan in past times.
But I read as the dissection of human body was forbidden by law and buddhism.
the only ones who could do dissections were the eta by only on bodies of criminal.
I can not figure out how to get body parts to make medicines if the dissection was forbidden?

My brother has lung cancer and pancreatic cancer, spine, skin. How long will he live .He is in Hospice now.
Best answer:
Answer by Jimmy Bennett
Well it depends on his body and his fighting will.. but most off the will TO survive.. but anyway
the body will give out before the body .. so it can be 1 day – months to years.. its possible
even if he is in stage 4 now.. depending on what treatments he’s gotten and what state he is in .. the cancer is still curable by means of alternative medicine..
Cancer is actually a microbe that is inside a cell and on the out side. This microbes lives in cells that lack an oxygenated state. Which means the Microbe can be killed with oxygen. *yeah i know its hard to believe but as you know or would like to know that Organized Medicine is there for money and profits and not really the truth.. Don’t blame your doctors always, cause they were trained and somewhat brainwashed to selling drugs and things that hurt you. Chemo for example can work but side effects are simple, they kill the good cells.. you don’t want to do this.
YOu have to attack the microbe it self then once that is done the cell it self will heal back to normal in 2 weeks to a up to a year or so depending on the area affected.
depending how open you are .. you can contact me on yahoo answers if your interested in the alternative approach to fixing your brother, its up to you .. If he does go or your family decides it.. hope he goes without pain..

Cystic Fibrosis Defeated With Higher Body O2 (Book)
www.normalbreathing.com Cystic fibrosis major symptoms can be eliminated by any person who achieves normal breathing parameters. Therefore cystic fibrosis treatment should target one main goal: to increase body O2 content. This is exactly the key problem in adults and children with cystic fibrosis. O2 in cells is the crucial factor in cystic fibrosis since the tiny pumps that transport sodium and chloride ions to create mucus in the respiratory tract and digestive system require oxygen to do the job correctly. Low O2 level in cells makes these pumps malfunction. And this is effect is established even in ordinary people without the CFTR gene. People with CF (cystic fibrosis) experience the same effect (poor work of tiny pumps causing more viscous mucus), but this effect is amplified by their CFTR gene making mucus, in conditions of tissue hypoxia, even thicker and dryer. That causes opportunistic infections in the GI tract, airways, and lungs. In addition, low O2 or tissue hypoxia causes oxidative stress and generations of free radicals due to anaerobic respiration in cells. This suppresses the immune system and worsens infections. They become chronic. Adults and children with cystic fibrosis develop chronic GI problems due to advance of Candida Albicans, Helicobacter Pylori, and other bacteria, fungi and pathogens. Similar effects take place in the respiratory problems resulting in frequent respiratory infections with other symptom that are different and individual and …

how would the body compensate to cope with a restrictive lung disease? do the compensation have side effects?
Question by zackzbest: how would the body compensate to cope with a restrictive lung disease? do the compensation have side effects?
how would the body compensate to cope with a restrictive and obstructive lung disease? do the compensation have side effects?
Best answer:
Answer by Matt A
Restrictive diseases make up almost all lung diseases. One characteristic of a restrictive lung disease is reduced lung volumes. If you have no other symptoms you may get by just fine however if your intake of oxygen is decreased, your respiratory rate and heart rate may increase to compensate.
The increased respiratory rate may cause you to blow off too much CO2 also know as hyperventilating. This will throw your acid/base balance off.
An increased heart rate will put a little more strain on you heart. This is not good for long periods of time.
Is your restrictive disease acute or chronic?

Answer by Spreedog
You are getting the best, most aggressive treatments that exist. Some people do better than others. You could make a year or more, but many do not. There is no way any of us can give you estimates from here. Your doctors should be explaining the data to you as you go through these aggressive treatments. They know the specifics of your case. They can quote you results from their experience with the treatment approach you are receiving.
Please be sure to ask your Oncologist(s) directly. I spent a great deal of time explaining these things to my patients. It is part of the doctor’s job.
But the experience of a group of other people will not tell you exactly what your outcome will be. Each person is special. Each writes his (or her) own story. Sounds like you are due for some good luck. We wish you the best outcome possible.

*** Cancer Medical Triumph: Increase Body O2 Naturally (Book)
www.normalbreathing.com – Cancer: Medical Triumph with Self-Oxygenation Therapies (Amazon Book) Official medicine says that cancer cure is impossible and cancer cause is unknown. However, some doctors have a clear plan and know exactly what to do with cancer. They can tell you exactly what you need to achieve (the body O2 test) to defeat cancer. These doctors know and address the cause of the disease. On a cellular level, cancer is caused by abnormally low O2 levels in tumors and other cells of the body. During last several decades, hundreds of studies confirmed this result. Many people believe that cancer is due to low pH (acidity) in cells. However, many studies clearly proved that low pH or acidity in cells is a result of cell hypoxia. Therefore, the idea that acidity in cancer cells is the cause of cancer is a myth without scientific or medical support. Obviously, we need to investigate breathing parameters in people with cancer in order to find out the cause of their low body O2 or tissue hypoxia. There are several studies that measured minute ventilation, breathing frequency, CO2 content in the exhaled air, and other parameters in people with cancer. What are the results? Each and every study that measured breathing in patients with cancer (with dyspnea and without dyspnea) found that these subjects have heavy and fast breathing patterns. To be more specific, it has been proven that people with cancer breathe about 2-3 times faster (than the norm) and take more air …

Tobacco and the Human Body 1954 Encyclopedia Britannica Films
more at scitech.quickfound.net “Early film on tobacco’s physical effects.” Public domain film from the Library of Congress Prelinger Archive, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and mild video noise reduction applied. The soundtrack was also processed with volume normalization, noise reduction, clipping reduction, and equalization (the resulting sound, though not perfect, is far less noisy than the original). en.wikipedia.org The health effects of tobacco are the circumstances, mechanisms, and factors of tobacco consumption on human health. Epidemiological research has been focused primarily on cigarette tobacco smoking, which has been studied more extensively than any other form of consumption. Tobacco is the single greatest cause of preventable death globally. Tobacco use leads most commonly to diseases affecting the heart and lungs, with smoking being a major risk factor for heart attacks, strokes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (including emphysema and chronic bronchitis), and cancer (particularly lung cancer, cancers of the larynx and mouth, and pancreatic cancer). It also causes peripheral vascular disease and hypertension. The effects depend on the number of years that a person smokes and on how much the person smokes. Starting smoking earlier in life and smoking cigarettes higher in tar increases the risk of these diseases. Also, environmental tobacco smoke, or secondhand smoke, has been shown to cause adverse …

Thousands of people every year could be confusing early stage lung cancer symptoms with coughs and colds, drastically cutting their chances of survival from the UK biggest Cancer killer. Only around 10% of lung cancer patients are alive five years after diagnosis due to late detection with 35000 people a year – 95 people a day – dying from the disease.

Any diseases that can slowly break down a persons’s entire body?
Question by : Any diseases that can slowly break down a persons’s entire body?
So I need this disease for a story. I need the circulatory, respiratory, and digestive system to all break down. But this person still has to be able to walk a few feet and talk and stuff. His vision and hearing can’t be affected but his smell, taste, and touch can. I kind of also need a cause for this disease, if possible. I was thinking about lung cancer but that would affect the nervous system as well, and I need his personality and memory to stay intact. ALS is too hard to do, this is Lou Gehrig’s disease, so can anyone think of any others?
