I have a severe allergy to Cinnamon (mainly the oil)
I have anaphlactic reations to it. My throat swells some and it hurts, larger amounts can close my throat .

I was wondering if there are others out there with an allergy to Cinnamon and what reactions do you or that person have?

Mine have been sore for about a week now. Not painful or anything, just achey and sore, and they just feel heavier. I've only had this symptom before when I was pregnant. But could this happen for another reason?

I track my cycles, and this month I got my period 10 days past ovulation (i usually have 12 days between ovulation and my period). It is very much my regular period, not just spotting. I also had all my regular PMS symptoms, which have now diminished. I ovulated on day 15 and had protected intercourse on the morning of day 19. Since I havent had unprotected sex and it isnt just spotting, implantation bleeding is unlikely. What would have caused this early period? Should I bother taking an HPT in a few days?

I lost my virginity when I was 17 with a girl that was not a virgin. Now almost 2 years later, we are married (I was stupid enough to have sex without a condom) becuase she was pregnant. She is the only girl I had ever been sexually involved, and I do not know if I will ever have sex with virgin, so I would like to know what is the difference? Is it better? I do not want to go into detail; however, I would like to know what is the difference.

Could you still date or marry someone if you found out they were HIV Positive, had Herpes, or some other type of non-curable disease?

I ate 4 grams of magic mushrooms and went to see the kottonmouth kings and Hed PE in concert and about 45 minutes later had a siezure (I have never had a siezure before). I came to and didnt know where I was and had to lay down for about 15 minutes before I began to peice together what happened, needless to say I quit doing drugs, but I also am a little worried because I dont have insurance and have not been checked out since the episode. Has anyone had or heard of this sort of thing happening, if so should I be worried of future medical complications?

Do you end up spending too many hours in front of your television every day/weekend?.Recently published a scientific study with evidence that people who watch more television are likely to be less active. Apparently, every hour of television watched daily means you are 47 per cent more likely to miss out on normal exercise!

I have two lumps on my hand. One moves when I moves my middle finger and the other stays still. They are reall close to each other. Sometimes they hurt but not all the time. Any ideas what they might be?

The point I try to explain is about any chest congestion, asthma or any other effects. Of course I speak about modern equipment, CLFCS and electrically safe...

I had the Flu last Novemember and have had chronic fatigue since. I have had two blood tests that point to Hypothyrodism. I haven't started on meds for it yet because I have also developed serious allergies/allergy-related asthma and I am trying to get that under control first (also started after the flu and thought the chest pain was fatigue related and only after 9mos of complaining, my doctor finally got a clue). I have not had any weight gain so far but I've been told that it happens if the problems with the thyroid go undiagnoised long enough. My only concern about this is because a few of the women in my family have been over weight and it has been such a struggle for them for so many years. I am already struggling with debiltating fatigue and allergies I'm not sure I want to add trying to loose weight to the mix either. What has your experience with hypothyroidism and wieght gain/trying to loose the weight been? Any advice?

I've recently started a new nutrition plan that is meant for me gaining weight. the problem is I'm quite small right now and don't want to lose my figure. I'm wondering if now is a good time to start trying to tone my body and forming a toned figure. I just don't know where to start or what to do. Reps of what? walking for how long?

Im very insecure about what I do, you know at parties and all that. The reason I dont do things is Im so worried about what everyone else will think. I dont want to make any enemies or be thought less of. I know its a tough **** world, and that this is a common problem but I just want to know why I feel like this or how I can change it. Just hate that feeling that everyones talking behind me back, making fun of me or making **** up. It gets so bad I'm almost afraid to move sometimes. how can i shake this?

I used to get a stiff neck on days that I slept wrong or had my pillow too high or too low. Usually it would go away during the day. But over the last few weeks, my neck has been really stiff. I can move it to side to side (causing it to crack, which it never used to do) but it feels really weird to move my head backwards. It feels like there is a huge bubble of air in there that is preventing me from moving it all the way back -- it feels like it needs to be cracked! But nothing works. I think part of it has to do with work; I've spent the whole summer in front of a computer.

I went to a masseuse and she helped relieve some pressure, but the "air bubble" feeling is still there, way deep in my neck.

I am going to book my very first appointment with a chiropractor this week. I guess my question is, will it help? Has anyone had similar kind of tension? Is there anything I can do at home to relieve it? And how about acupuncture? I'm willing to try it if it works.

Thanks!

After having my period in early july i stopped taking the pill. two weeks later I had some light pinky discharge spotting for 3 days. I havent had any periods since and im not sure if the spotting was my period again because i stopped the pill or am i pregnant. If I calculate from my period early in july i am 2 weeks late at the moment. Is that right or is that spotting counted as a period and im not pregnant its just side effects of the pill??? please help.

I think they should at least pay a portion of the cost because they have been proven to prevent STD's and pregnancy. (For the most part anyway) They cover other birth control methods, so why not?

So I've had 3 interviews in the past week and am waiting for a call back for at least one.. My credit card was stolen and now has like 300 bucks charged on it (the company basically told me "tough luck"), my best friend just went into rehab, I have absolutely no time to myself (Will be working two jobs, and going to school full time), and I'm going back to college in like two weeks in more debt than I anticipated.. What can I do to relax?
