Health - 22 July 2006

I 'm 5'8" and weigh 170 lbs. Been doing weights, tae-bo and triathlon since i was little. My BMI says i'm overweight, but i don't have a fat layer on me! My muscles show from shoulders to abs to thighs, so how come the BMI says i'm fat? Or is it a different chart for athletes i have to use? BTW i'm a size 6 and 28 inch waist.

Is it a good workout that makes you fit, or does it calm your mind? Me and my 3 friends signed up for an hour long teen yoga class, just for fun, but, what should I expect? It's only a one time event, just a little thing at the public library for teen girls... what do you think they'll do? It sounds like fun...

I served six years in prison. In ther i became a patch member of an organization known as the Aryan Circle. Now that i am out, I want to do good. I'm fixing to start college to get my Associate in Science, taking biology to become a researcher in genetics. Now they want me to do stuff, and i'm refusing. It might get me hurt, but I just don't want to go back. I've been out a total of six months since I was fifteen. I'm twenty-four now......(lilredac@yahoo.com)

Does he use a book or take a class or something? So many people think he is accurate, and for my question he was right on the money!

I would like to know how to analyze my own dreams so that I can work on things that are bothering me. Thanks.

I am almost 41. I take Mirapex and Gabapentin (Neurontin). In the last 2-3 months, I am able to (very easily, or I wouldn't have noticed, because I do not pinch my nipples for the h#ll of it) get colostrum or milk or something from my breasts. I am large-chested, but petite, but I am approx. a D or DD cup at the moment. I have not noticed this being possible at any specific time of the month. Is it the medication? My age? Normal for some women?? I nursed my son (who is 9) for ONE day. Can anyone tell me if this is normal, &/or if it will go away? I take about 300-900 mgs of Gabapentin/day (was at 2400mgs 4 mos. ago & it seems to put weight on my usually slender frame) for pain & sleep only, & 0.25 + maybe an extra .0125 mgs of Mirapex for Restless Leg Syndrome/eve. HELP! This is freaking me out! I haven't been with my partner since the end of May, & I am not intimate with anyone else (& I am most def. NOT pregnant, but I still have all the parts intact). Hated using the 5 pts!!

I dug into several different places on my finger but found no stinger. I have ben taking lots of benadryl, and using benadryl cream as well. I have no insurance and the last time I went to the charity hospital in town they charged more than I am willing to pay
My finger apears to be getting bigger and worse.
