I'm supposed to be taking risperdal and lexapro, but I don't want to. I was hospitalized in January for manic depression and they think I need to be on meds forever. Everyone else says I seem to be improving, and I haven't been taking any. I was wondering, am I legally allowed to refuse what is perscribed? Or, as a minor, do my parents get to decide? I am fifteen and I don't want to be on serious meds anymore. I need to know whats legal.

I have lupus S.L.E and fibromyalgia. I have been told by a dentis that although lupus does not attack your teeth directly but in directly it can in the sence that you have less saliva that helps keep your mouth clean. I look after my teeth and always have but my teeth are so weak yesterday I was just biting my nail (bad habit) and my tooth broke. I am seeing the dentis today. But what want to know can the lupus or fibromyalgia make somebody's teeth this weak or why is else would my teeth be this week.

For the last few weeks I've been experiencing a low thumping sound in my right ear. It happens pretty often, but not everyday. I can still hear out of the ear just fine, but am worried that maybe I somehow ruptored my eardrum??
Any insight would be appreciated.

The other night I was attacked by a single mosquito, about 5-6 times on my both my feet. 3 on one, and 2 on another, and I get the feeling another is developing on a toe. God damn, they itch. Unfortunatly I'm busy now, so I can't stop off at stores and such to buy lotions, etc.

I heard toothpaste works? But it's bad for the skin. If I use it, wash it off then apply lotion will everything be okay?

As for other stuff, I heard vinegar, and rubbing alcohol works too. Tell me about this. =o Or any other treatment that you'd think is good for these nasty bites.

Just got back from longs and used their blood pressure checker. First reading was a little alarming at 133/91. Then about 30 seconds later I ran it again and it came out a nice cool 114/82. Same thing happened at the doctors office a few months back. Nurse gets me when I first come in and it's like 140/?. Then not five minues later the doctor does the same test (different device) and it comes out normal 120 over something. What gives?

My three year old daughter's front tooth recently started turning blue. We have always taken good care of her teeth. She's been brushing and flossing since she got her first teeth when she was six months old. She hasn't fallen or hit her mouth in any way. So why is it turning blue?
