    Re: Any one know what these symptoms mean?

    What type of medical care has this person recieved. Have they been worked-up in any way.. Now I know it's a guy...loll For sure.. Men are notorious for not going to the doctor.

    WR,,, three commas for Becca.

    Certainly could be acute kidney failure and it does keep resolving itself. I wouldn't bet the farm that it will continue to resolve itself forever.

    not a man. by the time the patient gets to the doctor the symptoms are in the resolving phase. no care being given at all. was treated for depression and a severe case of hives, now the hives are tx with Benadryl. I forgot to mention that this person has a lot of joint pain, hips and knees.

    This person has no medical doctor and no insurance. For some reason she is being denied all forms of help. Medically, financially and emotionally.

    That's ridiculous.. All she needs to do is go to an ER and "faint" for heaven's sake.
