Health - 29 August 2006

I'm a girl on 16 who noticed that sometimes my tongue can be grey/white on the top. I have a good dental hygine, brush teeth in the morning and at night and never once before had any problems with my mouth.

My older sister says its because i dont eat right(I dont eat much, but im not overweight or underweight. Perfectly average. But its not cause I'm on a diet or anything, I'm just rarely hungry)

I used a tongue brushed for a some months, but there were no signs to improvement. Anyone have any idea what causes a white tongue? Is it not eathing healthy?

Would be nice to know! Thank you.

I'd like to know what's the possible causes for having a bladder infection in women. I have read that some bacterias are already present in the human body and make an infection when they go to the urinal system, but I'd like to know the most common reasons for having this infection..Also, does the alcohol combination with sex helps bacteria to grow?

I am a type 2 Diabetic. It was caught early enough to where I am not on medication and the disease is being treated by exercise and eating the right combination of low carb foods. It's been about 4 years now and so far so good. However; someone told me that no matter how hard a type 2 Diabetic works at keeping the disease under control, that the pancreas completely wears itself out over time and that all type 2 Diabetics eventually become type 1's. Is this true?

Do they get on your nerves? What do you tell them or secretly wish you could tell them? Apart from the usual Get a life- comment.

ok, it was set in the time of the revolutionalry war, and i was a maid in this inn. in the inn there was this docter and his son i was bring them tea and stuff, the son, (whose name was jack robin) and i became friends.
then the dream skiped ahead a few years, and we were older, the docter had left and he was in the inn by himself. when he proposed to marry him i jumped on him and we made wild crazy sex.
then it had a happy ending and i would like to know if this means anything.
i've heard that people's names are linked to dreams, mine are DC and his were JR?

I heard that it is bad if you mix citrus fruit (i.e. orange, grapefruit, etc) and dairy products (milk, yogurt, etc). Is this true?

I was diagnosed with IBS, and nothing seems to help. Not the medication, laxatives, a high fiber diet, stool softners, nothing. Some weeks I'm fine, but for some reason other's I'm not, and I don't change my diet. I'm completely miserable, does anyone hace suggestions? Laxatives were my last shot, and that didn't work.
