My husband's BP is 157/57. Is that too high? He feels terrible and takes Lisinopril 20 mg daily. He had a stroke in June 2011, is 5'7" and weighs approximately 300 lbs, and is a diabetic.

I have had floating stools for several months without any other symptoms. I am wondering what could cause this. The stools appear normal but float. I have a history of alcoholism, have been sober for 5 months, and drink a lot of caffeine. I thought it might be related to caffeine or lactose intolerance, but I'm not sure.

I have a large boil on the back of my neck, spanning from one side to the other. My GP has given me a letter to take to the hospital for surgical removal.
