I usually get colds that don't even run anymore. they just block my nose and i can't get them out... even if i drink lots of water in a day... it just doesn't work anymore... i even tried pouring water in my nose one time but it didn't work (of course), damn... what do you think is the best way to loosen a cold? i tried inhaling steam from a bowl of hot water under some towel but it didn't work too... what should i do?

Apparantly the testing is ridiculusly expensive, even with insurance. My Dr. has perscribed me Restoril which is a heavy sleep aid. It does put me to sleep, but I wake up within a few hours after it wares off. I generally get about 3-4 hrs. of sleep a night. I am so tired I feel like crying all the time and I constantly feel sick. Does anyone have any ideas until I can afford the Apnea testing. (please don't suggest nasal strips, they do not work). Help Me.

I resent being a teenager because if I talk to an adult in person, I've noticed that I'm often never taken seriously. But when I converse with adults online, no one ever knows I'm fifteen years old, and they usually talk to me like a normal person. And quite honestly, I think I have much better vocabulary than many adults. I just don't understand why I am hardly ever taken seriously.. because I am a so-called "child." Will someone give me feedback?

I have some bad teeth, and I need help please. How can I whiten my teeth and reverse damage, and yes I do brush daily. Also, how much do braces cost and is there any way to reverse the damage for cheaper than braces, for a canine tooth protruding from the top left of my mouth, in front of the other teeth? Thanks!

Does french toast go to your thighs? I like the butter on it and powder and lots of syrup and strawberry sauce. How many calories does that add up? I'm tryin to lose some pounds.

i'm never hungry ever since i started to wean off of the drug risperdal. i don't eat until like 3 in the afternoon and even then in only eat because i have to go to work and i want the energy. then i have to force myself to eat for the rest of the day. and when i do eat it's not healthy, it's like whatever i can grab. pizza, chips, burgers, burritos, etc. i kind of like it because i never lost my baby weight so i am hoping this may help. but at the same time i know it is not healthy and i would like to eat more meals with my litttle son. but lately the only reason i have been eating is for my son's sake or because my sisters make me dinner. help?
