Are there any Doctors here?

If so then please respond.

I have a few problems that I havent been able to fix on my own.

Tired all the time. (9hrs of sleep)
Sometimes I take a breath and it seems like it was just bad air or something becouse it feels like that breath didn't do me any good. Not shure how to better explain that one.
when that happens I get realy dizzy and start yawning a lot for no reason. I had one this morning and had a severe nose bleed with it.

Ever since I've started having these episodes I've felt like I'm only half awake. I can concentrate and I know whats going on around me, but I cant seem to get that info from my brain to my body to proform the tasks I need.

I'm just checking with doctors on this one. Everybody else can please ignore. I went to the emergensy room about 3 weeks ago and everything came back fine, but I was only there for 2 hours and the doc there said that all my blood tests were normal, I'm not shure, but don't the tests take longer that 2 hours with all the paperwork and stuff?

Even if I was a doctor, I know exactly what I'd tell you.

Go see a damn docotor! You can't make a diagnosis online, and even if you can make a guess with a good list of symptoms it's not safe, or legal to for that matter.

ER's are always rushed though. Their goal is to do one of two things. Get you stabalized so they can send you on your way, or figure out that you're really bad so they'll send you upstairs. Either way, all they're trying to do is get you to go away.

Make an appointment with your regular family physician to have this checked out. And don't listen to anything any 'doctor,' on here says, becuse I know for a fact that if anyone on here is of any medical profession, they'd tell you the same thing.

I am thinking that there aren't any real doctors hanging out in the OddTodd poll forums so a post requesting one here is probably a call for attention. Lucky for you I play one on the internet and I happen to be on call tonight.

Your symptoms don't are too general for any diagnosis to begin with. A bloody nose could just be a result of the dry winter air (or picking at it). If you are really as overweight and out of shape as you look in your graduation photo, then it would not be uncommon to have those symptoms as obesity plays hell with the respritory and cardiovasular system. On the other hand it couls be as severe as your pons may have ruptured but you wouldn't be around right now to even read this so it is too late to worry about that one.

An ER can easily run blood tests in 2 hours. They only screen for common warning flags like an elevated white count. They aren't going to screen for every possible situation.

One thing that doesn't add up though is that since you say you had paranasal cancer severe enough to cause anosmia (yet no facial deformities which is remarkable in itself) you should already know that your symptoms could mean a recurrence and the first person you should have called was your oncologist. You would have been advised that you will need regular screenings for several years after your previous treatment. With your history, the ER staff would have advised you of this as well so a specialist could evaluate your CT or MRI scans. The last thing they would have told you was to go home and request a diagnosis on a silly message board where 75 people post under the name Bob Dole and 90% of the posts are flames.

Are you ill? Possibly, but it may not be physical. You may need some serious couch time with a psychiatrist. Your posts seem to suggest a bipolar disorder or athazagoraphobia.

That will be $862 fake physician fee + $75 lab fee + $23.00 for a nasal evacuation system.
