make a doc appt and tell her you are taking her shopping then oops we are at the clinic and take her....she wont wanna make a scene in public and act childish so she will just go. Drop her off at the door and get one of the nurses to help her in as she probably has a kindney infection. Perhaps even a Gulbladder infection.

She need to see a doctor, now!  Could be too many things to even mention.  Trying all kinds of stuff is not the answer, most only hide the symptoms.

It could be resless leg syndrom, fibromyalgia, a pinched nerve, andything.  She needs to see a DR.

I know some folks can be stubborn, get her to doc and get an MRI of the knoe. Prevent any more falling that could be more serious.Like break a hip if she falls, that was the beginning of my sweet mother- in law's demise. Don't let it happen to her.

Start by talking to her like she was a friend of yours----shoot, say like "oh my gosh Sue (or whatever her name happens to be) I had THE worse diarrhea EVER today. My poop smelled like hot mayo and vomit...kinda like Mary's puke did that night she threw up on David's lap!" And when she says she has no idea what you are talking about, say...."well, then YOU must have the wrong number......pay attention next time!" (but. remember, she is only trying to do her job. Pay your bills) I once told them that I tried selling a kidney, but it's not legal to ebay body parts!!

It could be something serious or it could be something stupid, like one of my older friends (she's 51) was having heart pains that were "unbearable" and she went he doctor and it turns out that she had really super bad gas!  Whether it is serious or stupid my opinion remains the same: GO TO YOUR DOCTOR SOON AS POSSIBLE!!  Just in case it is serious.  Best of luck to you!

have they tried genetic counseling or stuff like that?  here's one u havent heard. has she been to the chiropartor lately? if an xray is done on her spine, it can show if there are subluxations on the nerves that affect her reproductive organs. she should check it out. its not hard to fix and requires no drugs.

She is entirely too young to be doing this.  Is she sickly?  My mom is going to be 60 this fall and she works 2 jobs and is a totally vital healthy woman.  I just turned 40 and we both work at the same Mental Retardation Facility as RNs.  I have the utmost respect for her skills as an RN and she is as sharp as a tack.\n\nPerhaps she needs to get a boot in the bottom to get her to see that she is not living, but merely existing.  \n\nIf she complains about the food, say "You have a kitchen in your apartment, go find something to eat if this doesn't suit you.  Otherwise, please be quiet about it."

She easily could have broken her back or a rib. It could have punctured her lung. Yes, she needs to go to the doc again! NOW! She can die from this. Her difficulty breathing has nothing to do with her being short of breath all the time. She needs to tell the doc that. And if she gets the run-around, go to another doc and another and another until she finds one that listens to her. \n\nBut if she came last summa and it is 2 years now, I don't understand the timing. All I know is that it CAN make her die.

Cancer has many causes, depending on the area of the body involved. \nCigarette smoking, alcohol and family members with the diagnosis are not a very good combination and your mothers chances of developing it are increased. \nTalk to her about it and together look for more information so you'd be able to take better care of yourselves.\nAlso, it wouldn't hurt to go get that stomach pain checked, it could be an ulcer and is best not left untreated.\nHope this helps.

I am sorry to hear about this I wish I could answer your Qs. I was just browsing and came across this.I had to post something back!My daughter was very sick about a week ago. She is fine now. But it was so scary.No one knew what she was sick with... Thats the worst part.She is only 2. She was passing alot of blood in her stool....Well we,as humans, always think of the worst first.I felt like the Dr.s were not doing enoff.But I now know that if you trust your DR. with all your hart then your mother is in the right place!But if not...Find some were you do trust.Ya'll will be in my familys prayers.  when you don't know what to do,Take your hands off the situation-by not worring(as much)-and God will then take care of it.

Is alchol or drugs involved?  sounds like their might be.  If not she may have a medical problem that needs to be addressed.

Take her for a full health checkup.\nI am sure the doctor will let you know of the ways you can treat her.\nIts better to ask a doctor than to ask people here

She should contact the hospital directly and explain the situation.  Somestimes (but depending on the hospital), they will be willing to forgive a portion of the bill, and work on a payment plan for the rest.\n\nIf not, is your friend part of any community that would be willing to put on a fundraiser for her?  Is she part of a church?  Is there a community of Colombian-Americans?  Perhaps a block party?\n\nGood luck!
