My 6-year-old daughter frequently urinates on herself, weighs only 32 pounds, and has clear urine. She has tried nose spray and Tofranil, but the issue persists. Her doctor suspects a rare type of diabetes. What could be the cause and what further steps should be taken?

I am 39 years old and trying to become pregnant again. My last period began on September 30, 2006, and I expected my next period on October 28. I spotted on 10/26 and 10/27, but my period did not start. I took a pregnancy test on 10/30, which was negative. I had a D & C for a missed abortion on 8/8/06, and this would only have been my second 'normal' period after the procedure. My breasts are tender, and I'm emotional, but I'm unsure if this is due to pregnancy, an impending period, or stress. If the pregnancy test was negative, why haven't I started my period? If I am pregnant, why was the test negative?

My 17-year-old son has a total body rash, no fever, swollen glands, and was on cortisone for 3 days but the rash got worse. His quick test for strep and mono were negative. He is in a lot of pain from his glands and started erythromycin today. What could he have and anything more I can do for the glandular pain?

Can you get vaginal ulcers from a yeast infection, and can you get herpes from someone who doesn't currently show a flare-up? Can you have a false negative test result if the virus has lain dormant for a long time?
