I have horrible back pain with this baby, and have resorted to using thermacare pad on the small of my back. It is safer than using a heating pad and there was no warning on anything about pregnancy in the package instructions. Thanks!

i am only 20 years old and was recently in the hospital due to lower back problems. they took some xrays and found out that the bones in my lower back are narrowing causeing pressure on my disks and pinched nurves which is causeing my muscles to spaz and shooting pain down both my legs( depending which side is bothering me) they told me i needed to see a physical therapist. i came back with "are you guys going to pay for it cause i dont have insurance?" so they told me to go home and look up some exercises i can do here at home so i can regain strength in my lowerback again to help my problem. any suggestions on websites or exercises that may help? and how will i know if i am doing them right? i also have a cyst about the size of an eyeball about 2 inches away from my spine. i told my doc about it but didnt give me any info on weather or not cysts can be cancerous...the C word runs in the family in almost every form, ovarian, breast, lung, liver,....how would i find out if it is or not

When I was 15 months old I was diagnosed with spinal meningitis and I was in a coma for 2 weeks. I was just wondering if there are any long term effects from it and what if any are they? I can't concentrate sometimes or comprehend things and it effects the jobs that I really want because I know in the long run I will be good at them but when I first start, it takes me a while to get the hang of it and no one wants to be bothered with the extra time it takes for me. I get dizzy and sometimes feel nausious. I get sinus headaches alot too but I don't think they are related. Can someone please fill me in a little because I am searching for answers and keep finding dead ends? Thanks!

"Diseases" But I took a chance on "general" Ok the question is: Are there any symptoms of high blood presure? My daughter has scarring on her kindeys from an infec years ago. The Dr told us that the worst that would happen is she might get high blood pressure from it. And latley her BP has been kinda high. Not outrageously high, but enough to worry about. And she won't believe me so she wants me to ask. If anyone knows of any sypmtoms: cough, headache, shortess of breath.. anything I haven't mentioned..
She has blood work tomorrow morn but is worried about it tonight and told me to ask.
Does anyone know?

My baby was 4 weeks early needing to be tube fed through nose and mouth..That was filling her on formula..My milk came in very late, and that took alot of work to get in..But baby was sent home with bottle feeds and occasional breast..Now almost 2 months later baby is approx 70 % breast with some bottle..She is also very colic..Could the two be upsetting her tummy? Is it safe to feed her the two kinds??I am watching everything I eat to try not upsetting her tummy further.

We all know that corn syrup is really really bad for you, and increases your chances of becoming obese, etc. However, what about things like corn starch, and corn on the cob, and pop corn etc? Are they bad/will cause weight issues as well?

I am a 23 year old male. I feel like most of my life I have been kinda sheltered because of the fact that I am very shy and that my parents have strong beliefs about whats right and wrong. I live in a backwoods town in the northeast. In 3rd grade my parents took me out of school and home schooled me. My parents own a business and I live and work with them. We got to church on sunday and my only friends are people from church and customers I see at work. I have never had a relationship with a woman. I have never had sex and I have never masturbated. The only time I have ever ejaculated was when I was sleeping, which I dont remember how it feels because I was asleep. This has happened 5 or 6 times throught my life. Latley I have been constantley thinking about sex and masturbating. I do not want to have sex until I am happily married. But latley I keep getting the urge to want to touch myself. Since I have waited this long should i just wait till marriage? would it make the girl apprecia

I want to bring toys into the bedroom, as does my man, i've had them in past relationships, however i'm lookin for suggestions. I don't want to spend a lot of money on a toy that breaks after a few uses. Not into the bootie beads, so no suggestions on those please. But any names of toys that the ladies like, or guys know their ladies love, websites i can check out...thank you!
