Health - 9 August 2006

I am concerned about my health. I would not consider myslf an alcoholic, but I ususally start drinking Wenesday, and stop on Sunday. Whenever I drink, I drink about 12-15 beers per night, within a 5-6 hour period. Sometimes, on Saturdays I will start drinking about noon, and stop at about midnight, drinking about 20 beers total for the day. I have built up a big tolerance, I only weigh 138 pounds. I never get hangovers either, no matter how much I drink. This has been going for about 2 years now. But, lately I have been getting cramps, it feels like my kidneys because it's coming from both sides of my stomach. Sometimes while at work my hands start tembling, not alot, but people notice. I used to drink alot of liqour, but I havent lately. When I did, I could easily finish a BIG bottle of Captain Morgan's spiced rum. Btw, I'm oly 20.

I have spotting (bright red, looks like blood mixed with some fluid) one and a half weeks before my period (about 2 teaspoons each day for 3 days) and have had this regularly for 5 years. Also, around this time, I also leak a lot of urine, enough to coat a pantiliner. When I have sex around this time, I leak a lot of fluids including urine and it’s embarrassing. I am trying to do kegals but I tend to leak more afterwards. My bladder muscles seem weak but I don’t know how to check. Any suggestions? Sometimes when I sneeze really hard, a little bit of urine leaks out.

There’s more. During my periods, I get blood clots the size of quarters. It’s terrible as blood comes out in globs and it’s uncomfortable to sit on. Sometimes, globs of blood the size of 3 grapes comes out and I have to run to the bathroom to change my pad. I noticed that as I sit down for short periods, more of the blood will clot and when I stand up big globs will come out.

I have gone to the doctor to tell them about my spotting but they say it’s nothing, still I can’t help but wonder if they are just brushing me off. Please help, as this subject is too embarrassing to discuss in person. Also, there is no chance that I am pregnant.

I'm looking for free online diet tracking programs. Does anyone know of any?

I've already found fitday, sparkpeople, and extrapounds.com but I'm wondering if there are any other programs out there.

He said he was only curious, but the details of the questions and his answers to them were pretty precise. Sadly, it appears he's looking for someone totally unlike me. Should I leave him?

Some people think it's ok to smoke weed, and a lot of times it's socially accepted. What do you think?

Well I just got back from the first day of senior high today, all the buildings are seperated so I have to walk in the blazing hot UV index 10 sun. I was wondering if I should go to school with sun screen on everyday since I walk a few minutes between classes in the sun. Porbably about 2-3 minutes between classes for 7 periods which adds up to about 14-21 cumulative minutes in the sun. When I get home though, no sun for me. I was wondering if this is a safe amount of daily exposure? Am I just worring too much lol, because I'm one of those lucky guys with a "clean" face, I dont want all that sun damage showing up >.<

my husband recently came back from iraq. a couple days days later he had on his penis what seemed to be cuts or cold sores (you know the ones you get on your mouth). He said "what did you do to me?" I told him i didnt know- i never had sex with anyone while he was gone. Besides i didnt have anything on my vagina- ( i know i checked with a mirror, flashlight and all ), but the weird thing is that he got them sores about 2 days after having sex with me. Can someone please give me a possible explanation for this? Thanks :)

(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is

700,000.

(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians

per year are 120,000.

(C) Accidental deaths per physician

is 0.171.

Now think about this:
Guns:

(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S.

is 80,000,000. (Yes, that's 80 million..)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

(B) The number of accidental gun deaths

per year, all age groups,

is 1,500.

(C) The number of accidental deaths

per gun owner is only .000188!
