Is not that I don't have a heart, but her uncle got lung cancer from smoking and if i am not mistaken, the pack says "cigarettes cause cancer" and her family asked him to stop smoking long ago before he got the cancer (that's like cutting your wrists slowly over the years) .my girl and her uncle are not that close but she loves all her family. I don't want to postpone my wedding, but I don't want to make her feel bad. What do I do?

Recently about 3 months ago, I started getting some floaters in both my eye, been to 3 eye doctors that said it was nothing. But I got them out of nowhere and started off with 1 but I have about 6 of them, some are dots some look like strands of string. Is it normal to get these just out of the blue?

The pain is about 1/3 up my left bicep and seems to be wrapping around my arm. (It is not going up and down the arm.) I do not have any chest discomfort and I am not short of breath. The pain in my arm is not stiffling, it's just concerning me. FYI: Over the weekend I had a slight fever of 100.3.

It resulted in a wonderfully deafening mouthfull of french fries!
...Now when I picnic at the beach, my peanut butter sandwich immediately goes face-down on the sand before it goes in my salivating mouth! It's quite healthy! My doctor says my gizzard is working very effectively these days!
Try it!

I am 5'1 and weigh 145 pounds. I am very unhappy with my body right now, and I dont want to go to the extreme of not eating but I will. I want to lose 30 pounds. It is still healthy, and its just me that is unhappy. Not my boyfriend, not my family, just me. I need to do something. I dont look overweight, but I think I am and that is all that matters. So please dont preach on how I should love my body, just help me get it to the place where I will love it.

I know that I should just let it slide since the only person I can control is myself, but I just get so angry. No one listens to my ideas on how to improve things and they can't stand to be criticized even though they don't do there job well becaue they are lazy. All they want to do is come to work and set on their behinds for 8 hours and pick up their pay check at the end of the week, while I'm trying to actually accomplish something. It's not a situation I can walk out of either so that's not really an option.

Anger outbursts out of no where...feelings of depression...thoughts of suicide...body feels shaky...have to be in control of environment...paranoid thoughts...can't sit still. If anyone has an idea please let me know! I know I need to go to a doctor but I have no means to at the moment! This just started getting bad recently.

Sometimes when I am walking, or when I shift my weight the wrong way, my knee gives out and it is very painful. If it is a bad dislocation I get pain, swelling and loss of mobility. It hurts and is embarrassing since I usually fall flat on my butt. What surgery, treatment, etc is available. I have already wwent through physical therapy and that helped, but it still happens.
