OFF: Health problems

[Steven Tice]

Hi, folks...sorry to go so far off topic, but I was wondering if anyone could
point me toward an information source for health problems.  I've been having
pain in the region of my gall bladder for a number of months now, and I still
don't know what it is...   Billy Hilfiger (hey, there IS a tenuous connection
to our topics here, I guess :-) advised me to have it checked immediately, but
the ultrasound turned up nothing...but DID cost $500, and since I have no
health insurance, I'll be paying that off for some time.  Because of this I
didn't get the liver and blood tests I was supposed to get--I couldn't afford
them.  So I still don't know what the problem is.  But this and a couple of
other more minor health problems have me worried enough that I want to find
more information...unfortunately, despite some online searching, there is just
so much out there that I don't know where to begin.

Basically, I'm looking for a reliable source for information about gall
bladder problems or health problems in general.  Can anybody on BOC-L point me
in the right direction?  Thanks in advance for any assistance!
