Does anyone remember the Hong Kong flu back in the 50's and if you had it what do you remember? I remember going through a whole roll of TP in 1 hour from runny nose and watering eyes. Never heard of anyone else ever having it.

ers...What is it? Is it stress related? If I keep putting alcohol on it will it go away? They are so nasty. I am 36 and never have had acne. Dermatologist said it had to do with stress and gave me a prescription for very expensive sterroid ointment which has done NOTHING!

I have been having this pain off and on for a few years now, not really sure when it began. It's under my ear and slightly to the front, but most of the time, it is under my ear. I have never spoken to a doctor regarding it because it comes and goes, but lately it's been happening a lot, and it is one of the worst pains I have ever felt. It's absolutely excruciating - that's the only word I can think of. It's not a pain in my actual ear or in my teeth, as some of you might suggest; it's almost as if it is in a gland in my neck under my ear or maybe something like that? I am seeing a doctor in August at some point, but I'm trying to get an idea of what might be wrong. It's just so painful to experience..if you yawn, eat, drink, cry, whatever, it hurts so bad you want to scream. And then it will go away! Now it's just happening more often and I want it to stop!

Since it's summer, there is nothing to do here so I often dont get a whole lot of excersize save for the occasional bike ride and bouncing on our trampoline. Very rarely, like today, my leg gets really badly cramped on the pelivic joint and my knee. The pain is like a burning, kind of muscle ache pain. Anyway, it's really bothering me this morning (So much I only got 3 hours of sleep) Does this sound like the kind of pain you get from sitting around and if so, how do I get rid of it quickly? I know excersize is the solution, but I mean get rid of this friggin ache right away. Would Icy- Hot work? Could it be something else too? I get this same pain when I excersize regularly, and on a weekly basis...

My boyfriend and I were making out the other night, and things were getting pretty intense. He was really breathing very heavily and softly moaning. He was on top of me (we were both wearing our clothes), and he was touching my butt and breasts. He didn't touch me anywhere else, and I didn't touch him down there. Later on he told me he had an orgasm from our make-out session that night. He appologized and seemed really embarrassed about it...why? Is it possible he could have actually had one just from making out, especially since I didn't even touch him down there or was he making that up? What are signs that your man is having or just had an orgasm? All I've done with a guy is make out (I'm 16), so I'm pretty sexually inexperienced and I was just wondering.

My husband was reactivated by the US Army in January and is deployed to Afghanistan until next June. I had been on Zoloft for a year already when he received his orders. Lately it seems things have gotten worse. I don't know anyone around here and the friends I do meet... well lets just say they have their own agendas (like disappearing when it comes time to pay the bill.) I'm not close to any military installation anymore and my family lives far away. What can I do, so I don't sit around in my pjs answering Yahoo answers all weekend?

I have been taking Topamax for a year now for Bipolar and have had memory problems such as not being able to remember dates and information that others tell me, along with not being able to recall the right words when I am talking with others. I have been able to cope by writing everything down but now my dose has been increased making the symptoms worse and I am wondering if there are any other possible solutions out there. And no changing medications is not an options at this point.
