Very personal question: The idea of being hypnotized really turns me on. It has since I was in highschool and volunteered for a stage show. I love everything about it and find it very erotic...my boyfriend says I'm a weirdo and I think he might be right. Anyone else feel that way...or should I seek counselling?

I did something that I am not proud of. I live with my mother and my brother. A week ago, for some strange reason my mother decided to try something new for lunch, “Mountain Oysters”. I thought they were some kind of oysters, but they did not seemed like oysters at all, they just looked like big oval balls, about the size of two softballs. Anyway, when she told us that they were bull testicles….first I was shocked, then started laughing. My brother was just staring at them with a serious face. But then I noticed that my brother begin to blush, and I could not help but to laugh uncontrollable at him, and my mother too. Then she left to do some more shopping. First I was joking with him about the oysters, then got courage and picked up one of the “oysters” to embarrassed him even more. THEN I got a little carried away and without thinking just throw the “ball” very hard into his balls!!! He doubled over to his knees and then fell to the side, his face became pale, he was down for more than five minutes, and the sight of him holding his balls with the big ball just next to him was too much for me, and I laughed so hard that I had tears in my eyes! He then got up, and was real mad, and just locked himself in his room. He never told my mother, I guess he was too embarrassed. He did not eat the oysters, lol.
Now I feel kinda bad for him. What can I do?

Ok, I had this dream..I was at a park with my son. I was sitting at the picnic table watching him play with the other kids. His babysitter was there and decided to leave with her son. My son then took off running after them. I sat there frozen and I couldn't speak. My mouth was moving,but nothing was coming out. All of a sudden this gay looking blue cargo van was coming. He honked but my son wouldn't move off the street. Next thing I know everything magnified and went into slow mo. The guy in the van ran over my son. I just sat there and saw the whole thing. He is down on the ground and the driver just kept driving. I am able to move now, so I run up to him. Turn him over and look into his eyes. I didn't see anything there. He is so bloody and dismembered. I start to cry. So I put my ear down next to his mouth to try to hear if he is still breathing. No he isn't.

Then I woke up freaking out. Can you tell me where to look up what this means. Or if you have any ideal

About a month ago I sang a bad high note that turned into a screeching sound and since then I've had a slight sore throat on the left side of my throat that hasn't gone away and seems to have gotten worse. When I look in the mirror it seems like the left tonsil is redder and maybe has a sore. I went to see a doctor and he said he can't see anything and doesn't know what it is (I have an appointment with an ENT in 2 weeks!). Does anyone know what to do about a sore that is caused by bad singing? Does this lead to a viral infection?

My 2 1/2 year old son is uncircumcised and has been complaining for a couple of days that his penis hurts and that it hurts when he pees. He has no fever or other signs of infection (UTI or yeast). The tip of his penis is red around the opening of the foreskin and the underside of his penis is red along the length of the shaft. His penis usually sticks to itself there (under side) when he is wet leading us to wonder if it is a yeast infection. When he was young he had a yeast infection and we treated it with cream advised by our doctor. For the last 2 days we have been washing it well (we don't retract the foreskin, it's not ready yet) and have been putting on Dermoplast for pain and antibacterial help and then alternate changings with yeast infection cream. He says there is less pain now, but it still seems as red... Could this just be soap that is irritating the skin? Could this be a normal part of the foreskin separation? Do you have any ideas? Please help. Thank you.

I used to have this a few times a month as a teen. Now as a middle aged adult, it happens very rarely. I'll have these little spells, usually at night, when all of a sudden, I can see everything around me, but it looks like everything is noticeably smaller than usual, but all in proportion to one another, still. I've never taken street drugs and am in good health. This might last a few minutes to a half hour, then go away.

Anyone else ever hear of this, experience it, or know what it is? Is it a type of "ocular migraine"? Thanks.

think that they can have sex unprotected and not get STDs or get pregnant?

I mean honestly, why do you do it? You can get STDs from oral sex, so why not use protection each and every time? They have female condoms for women so you can perform oral sex and never touch bodily fluids, condoms for guys...I mean come on? Anyone can get the pill so why don't your promiscuous girls go on it? I really want to know why, in this day and age, people are not careful????

My dad was recently found to have Hep C from getting blood transfusions that hadn't been tested (back in 86' or whatever) because he is factor 9 deficient, can't clot, and needed transfusions. Now he didn't want to talk to me about it because it was upset, but what is going to happen? Will he die of it? He can't have any major surgery because of his deficiency and all he told me was that he was going to start taking shots at the doctor? Can anyone explain to me what my father did not? It's hard to talk to him as he lives 1600 miles away and won't be moving back home til next summer, so it's difficult to talk about over the phone...

To reduce body weight, is it ideal to walk. If so, how many minutes.
Which is the right time to choose - Morning or evening. fast walking or medium. Is walking in the open terrace is the same when compared to other types of walking. Please inform the benefits of each in detail.

My daughter is very allergic to dogs and cats. She loves animals so much though I have been considering a hamster? Does anyone know if the hamster is in the same ballpark? I would hate to get her one and have to take it away. I do not know anyone with hamsters so she has never been around any. Thanks in advance

I used to take the sleep medication Ambien; I took the 5 mg size (I hope I am saying that right....it was the smallest dose.) It worked great, but one day I decided to stop talking it.

The night I stopped, I couldn't get to sleep until 5AM..I was sooooo miserable at work.the next day!

I went back to my Dr. and she prescribed trazadone, which is a mild.antidepressant. that comes with a side effect that makes one sleepy . It is also not supposed to be addictive. It works wonderfully. There have been several nights I haven't taken it, and I was still able to sleep.

What's your story?
