Health - 20 September 2006

I know that there is a slight chance of it comming back after the surgery, but do you have any good doctors (preferably in the Cleveland area) where you can get it removed? Also, how much do you think it would cost? Is there a way that you can, like, remove it yourself? And for the last question, after you remove it, would you be able to, like but this tight thing around it so then another keloid won't be created and swell.

i work with this guy named michael and we're pretty good friends. he's 21 years old and he has a court date comming up because he got a DUI so they put him on probation, and then he got a second DUI which means he violated his probation and might have to do some jail time. He snorts cocaine too and im really worried about him. sometimes he'll mix it with alcohol. i have asked many people what to do and they all say to just forget it because there's nothing i can do but i dont want to give up on him. he needs someone to talk to and be there for him. im so scared for him. i don't want him to die and i don't want him to go to jail. please help me. what should i do?

Your support is so appreciated.
I have been talking to my husband about his kids and our problems...I am still in a turmoil. So many of you have advised me to leave...fast but I am scared!
I haven't worked for 6 years (except take care of my family) and mentally I am so down, my self esteem is shot, I have none. Not sure that I am strong enough to face a shelter again in this state.
I'm afraid to stay as well because I just don't think I can take this abuse anymore. I'm really twisted!
Today I find out that my step daughter is lying about me, saying that I was going to hit her when we had an arguement last night and that I did hit (slap) a friend that was here. WRONG!!!! I can't even step on an ant. This is to much and has been going on for to long and I am beaten down by it to the point that I can't make a decision to defend myself.
Anyway, thank you to all who care so much:-)

Obviously, it's bad to breathe gas and it's smell should automatically make you back off... Have these people just breathed in too deeply too many times at the gas station, etc... and gotten addicted? Poison shouldn't be an attractive smell! Also, does this mean their sense of smell is actually damaged or that some wires are crossed somewhere?

An aunt of mine has to get her entire teeth pulled out due to them becoming loose. She is a diabetic, which is the reason the dentist told her they have to come out. She was quoted 2,200 for the procedure.
Has anyone gone through such a procedure and how much did it cost you??

For the past few years, I've been noticing my knees make a crunching, cracking sound when I bend them, a lot after I go biking. There's no pain but sometimes just a pressure. It reminds me of how it feels when I need to crack my knuckles and sounds like it too. What gives?

I am not using anything new on my skin, nor have I changed my routine or switched detergents. This has happened before and it hurts like mad. And, YES, I have already talked to my doctor about this and it's usually the same thing.... she prescribes something that doesn't work.

The strange thing is this "condition" doesn't happen all the time. It'll go away for months at a time then reappear out of no where. Also, when I was pregnant with my daughter, during my 3rd triemester, it was my belly that popped up with blisters.

HELP!
