I am thirteen years old and I have been sick for around six months. I have had tons of neusea, dizziness and I get headaches constantly, I usually get them in the morning and then they will get better through the day or it will just be a big light headed headache that lasts for about ten seconds. I get some really bad stomach aches and sometimes I feel very weak but then that turns on and off. And finally I show up with bruises out of no where but that may not be me getting sick. I went to the doctor around four months ago and took medication from what they thought I had a sinus infection, I took it for about 4 weeks and went back they said it was completely gone. I started getting all the symptoms and now my family thinks the doctor’s are wrong. Should I get a blood test and are these symptoms for some types of cancer? I know it probably doesn’t but the more I read about it the more worried I am. Thanks so much. =]

Ehy Is Tt Certain Medications Such As Aids Drugs Or Cancer Fighting Drugs Cost So Much?
Because for every drug that actually works, there were tons more that didn’t. Pharmaceutical companies have to do YEARS of work not only to develop the drugs, but prove that they are safe and effective in numerous clinical trials.
By the time a drug becomes available, there are millions of dollars that have been invested in its production. In turn, they use the revenue from these drugs to finance research on new drugs, as well. It doesn’t seem fair, but at the same time, we can’t try to stop progress or disease like cancer and AIDS will never be cured.
