My best friend found some blood when she urinated but when she went to the doctors office they told her that it was nothing to worry about, but they didn't know where the blood was coming from. Does anybody know if this is something to really be concerned about?

I'm an adult, diagnosed last year with ADHD. I mostly have the ADD aspect. I've tried ways to treat it without prescription medication, but so far nothing's helped.

I want to try non-stimulant Strattera; I'm afraid the stimulant drugs (Concerta, Adderall, Ritalin) will have a bad effect, due to my extreme SENSITIVITY to stimulants. Is this is valid reasoning? Here's what I mean...

-- If I have more than 1 cup of coffee or 1 Excedrin, I get quivery & shaky INSIDE & out, and get anxious. I also get heart palpitations at times.
-- If I take more than 1 or 2 puffs of Albuterol (asthma bronchodilator), I'm even WORSE shaky & jittery, and also sometimes get palpitations.
-- If I take even 1 Sudafed (pseudophedrine) anywhere near bedtime, it keeps me up almost all night. And it often makes me anxious.
-- I can't even drink Chai tea; it makes me hot and hyper!

Does all this prove I should avoid stimulant-based ADHD meds? Or am I making correlations that aren't valid? Thanks! :)

Stray thoughts meaning thoughts that come up unexpectedly or unwanted and disappear. I was wondering what's normal and what's not. Multiple responses please!

Why do you get knots on your head if you bump your head, but if you pump your arm or leg, you usually only get a bruise? What is the physical difference between the head and other parts of the body that causes this unique reaction to an injury?

Hey, several people are advising my grandmother to visit this homeopath in florence alabam. They say he hooks you finger up to a machine and it tells every problem you have. Sounds like a scam to me. What do you think. Ever heard of him?

I'm really self conscious abut my breasts. I'm a 36C, which is normal for many, but on a 5'2" figure it looks bad. I really want to minimize them a bit. I don't exactly qualify for minimizing bras, and I don't want surgery. I lost 30 lbs a few years ago, but my boobs stayed the same size. Are there any other ways I could reduce the size of my breasts?

girls my best friend said she's workout and she has been getting bigger breasts and hips like benchpressing and leg lifts.
I've been trying and I can't i can benchpress 300lbs. and leg lift 325lbs. and i see no different sizes my friend sent me pics of girls working out and they have a stuff.
Is it true or am I wasting my time? OR could it be because i'm 14 or is it because i'm 6'3 that I can't grow them?

Anyways, I'm glad people want to lose weight, but it is simple. Eat fewer calories, exercise more, and do that for a very long time, like the rest of your life. Just ran across this short article. If you are interested in losing weight, just read this instead of posting your story all over the internet!

Well, according to some people, I could be pregnant (from my last question) one person asked if my boobs hurt, and to my realization, I dont have any! How could I not have any boobs and be 23?
