I used to be a daily smoker (and only smoke) and the last time i smoked was roughly 5-6 days ago. I have been taking detox pills for 4-5 days and drinking only water and watching my diet and was wondering if anyone had success with the product and have any other suggestions for me.

She asked me what I thought one day, and I personally think she is little, but she wanted an accurate answer, not just my opinion. Sheesh. lol

I need my period lightened, I know tomorrow is going to be really heavy (the 2nd day for me is unbelievably heavy). And I'm not going onto birth control just for that. Any natural ways, like foods or anything else? Thanks.

Genuine question. Not designed to inflame or offend. I don't have a lot of experience with the condition, but I wonder about this every time it gets exposure in the media.

Is there a genuine psychological reason why tourettes sufferers only use swear words in their outbursts?
Or have I got it completely wrong?
Could it be that there are just as many people with tourettes who shout out non-swear words and noises, and the media only portrays the sweary ones to gain a *shock factor*?

It appears to me from my sparse observations that sufferers of this condition experience a build up of pressure or tension, which they struggle to contain.
Then suddenly, like an elastic that has been stretched too far, they snap, and out comes a sudden vocal explosion.
I can't even begin to imagine how frustrating it must be to have this condition.

Okay I know this sounds bad but I dont know how to explain this to my 17 year old sister. She came to me today wanting to know how clean it really is to be giving oral pleasure to her male partner. Her points of interests were something I have never thought anything about so therefore I am asking you all for help. She wants to know when a male uses the restroom *sitting* how the penis stays clean and doesnt get feces on it. Her next question was if in fact feces was to get on the penis and she were to give him pleasure not knowing this, if she was at any immediate dangers since it would unknowingly be going into her mouth. I know this is odd for ya'll reading as it was for me but I need some advice on how to talk to her about this and give her the answers she is wanting. Any advice is welcome!!!

I'm wondering why this has been happening to me all my life, and what can be done (if anything) to fix it. Whenever I yawn or laugh its like I turned on a tear faucet in my eye balls... It's kind of embarrasing. What is the clinical reason behind this?

Like they say you burn it off, but do you sweat it out or urinate it out or what?

If so, on average how much? And if you are a nurse, which do you prefer more - hospital or clinical setting?

Please tell me what the docs said to eat right after surgery (either that day or the next day). How did you feel what made you feel better? Could you move around, or not so much?

I've just read a question where a person's teenage sister is hearing voices. she could be mentally ill, she could be stressed, she could be attention seeking. Who knows?

But my real question is about some of the answers, people seem to think that she has been taken over by the devil or their answer is to pray for her.

Really!?!? Do people honestly believe that? If my arm drops off, are there really people out there who think the best advice is to pray, no go to a hospital, not see a doctor, but to pray!!!

No wonder the world is in such a state if its populated by such illiterate, uneducated whackjobs!

This is not a dig at religion, so please don't inundate me with, i'm going to hell because i'm anti-religion etc etc responses.

This is an honest question about the state of some people's minds and the worrying responses they give, for goodness sakes, some of these people are probably parents, what do they do if their child is sick or scared, tell them to pray.....!!!!!!

She had to be taken to the emergency room last night due to her finger nails turing bluish purple. She had an extreme asthma attack and we thoughh we were going to lose her. We finally got her to breathe on her own 3 hours later. Then we were realesed from the hospital this morning at 8:00 A.M. She also vomited ALOT while in the hospital. I couldn't even nurse her because of all of the cords in the way. What's wrong with her?

My son's had a few mosquito bites lately, so when I saw a raised bump I didn't think anything of it. Now it's changed into the bullseye similar to after a tick bite. It's more of a cresent than a ring right now. But we don't have deer ticks here (as far as I know) and Lyme disease is unheard of in our area. Everything I've read about this sort of mark says that it's a first sign of Lyme disease. He has an appt to get it looked at in a few hours, but is it possible it's just a rash or something, or does this mark always mean Lyme disease? I just keep thinking that I would have noticed a tick on his leg for a day or more.
