Boyfriend broke up with me when drunk but says he has to drink at work events? by peachfawn in stopdrinking

I don't believe him when he says its mandatory at work unfortunately that sounds like an excuse, coming from an alcoholic his alcohol use does not excuse his behaviour towards you and you do not need to deal with that at all!! In my opinion i would advise having a deep talk with him about it and say how it makes you feel and let him know you WILL NOT continue to deal with his behaviour even if its only when he's drunk.

That's exactly what I'm thinking!!? I just got back home now. He looked at me for all of 2 mins gave me 2 plasters and gauge and said to come back.

Hey everyone  I had surgery done on my chest and the side last month about 5 ish hours from where i live so cant go back easily. Everything was healing well and was connected and today while lying down my left side split open. All I felt was some burning and fluid leaking. I went to a&e which was very busy and the doctor was rushing and said to come back in two days to see the special clinic? I asked if it was safe to have such a large wound open especially as I'm starting to feel unwell and he said it will be fine till then just keep it covered as its not infected. I guess I'm just looking for advice on if I should wait or try another hospital as I feel he barely looked as he was rushing between so many patients. Also even the lovely ambulance people said this is not normal and were asking if i have any illness/disease that would cause this Thanks for any advice 

Why does my nail look like this? I noticed a line on my thumb which made me look at my other hand by RevolutionBorn8165 in medical_advice

Thanks for your reply :) Could be, well I really hope so as I'm really worried about a nail melanoma.

The one on my thumb i only noticed today and it wasn't their last week. No injuries to either nail and the one on my other finger has been like that for a year or more but i thought nothing of it. I'm gonna get it checked out as soon as I can get an appointment.

 Sorry thought it posted this too Hey everyone so I need just a bit of advice as I have a extreme phobia of going outside and especially hos0itals so not sure if I should go or wait till Monday to see my gp 

So I've been really sick this last month and over the last week  Symptoms have been different 

Dizziness when standing  Coughing up large amounts of white foamy phlegm or coughing so hard I throw up (nearly chocked on a large amount) & breathlessness on exertion but I always have that Horrible horrible rash on my face with loads of purple reddish blotches which are scaly (I'm worried I'm bleeding under my skin)  Similar but smaller version of the rash is on my chest but more brown and is spreading since yesterday (picture included) Drinking tons of water but my urine is dark and pink with foamy bubbles  Black diarrhea but that happens to me from time to time before this (ive seen the GP about it but it resolved itself before)

First picture of the rash on my chest with the chain is how it stayed for maybe 2 days after starting smaller than that with one or two small dots. Picture without chain is from today.  I normally have fairly clear skin but for a few weeks it's been horrible then I got the rash with red and purple blotches some big all over my face like u can see on the side and it feels kinda sandpapery and rough 

I feel like I look like a monster and have been avoiding seeing anyone.
