Health - 14 October 2006

Last night, I developed a fever after coming home from a very cold football game (the temperature was around 30 degrees farenheit throughout the game, but i had to go because I'm in the band.) I even threw up twice. My fever broke about 7:30 this morning. About 4:30 this afternoon, though, my fever returned and I've had no appetite today. Could I just have picked something up last night, or could it be something worse?

I would like to know how often a woman should douch? After every period, sex, or just random times through out the year? Does it hurt and can it cause any infections?

I'm a 17 year old girl and a virgin because I know I'm not ready for sex. But for some reason I've been having sexual dreams lately. Why is this?

I don't think this is in the correct category, but I didn't know where to put it. Thanks for the answers!

Ever since this summer, I have been depressed and have had thoughts of suicide. After what happed during summer, I have lived with my dad. Well, no one (except for one) knows of how I feel. It has escalated since then. I fear that sometime soon I will finally try to go through with it. If you could, could you give an e-mail address or website I could use?

I was once in love online with a terminally ill girl. We talked voice for hours and we shared many laughs. We wished we could be together at least once in our lifes but knew that would never happen. It tore me apart and I wished I could die with her. I cried at work, I cried at night until I could not take it anymore. We broke it off.
I try, tried, to be her online friend still. She is so lonely, depressed and online is all she has. Her latest words sent me in distress, she said to me: "I just wanted some body that would stand by me through anything and maybe something to look forward too or dream about". "But now its like a bog black hole going nowhere".

What should I do? It pains me so much because I know I caused her this pain. I feel guilty. I wish I could be there for her but all we ever had was online. It tore me apart in an already difficult world for me. I wished I could see her but I can not get a hold of her when it is needed.
What can I tell her? What can I do?

My dad has had a few gran mal seizures which were bad and he bit his tongue. Before he actually started having seizures he would have these black outs that only lasted a few seconds. Has anyone else experienced these black outs and are these seizures? He is now taking Dilantin and Keppra to try to prevent the seizures.

I have been told by my doctor I have an enlarged liver. I do not drink any alcoholic beverages. I have what is called a nonalcoholic liver syndrome. What causes this and what if anything can be done to correct or improve this condition. I do know my grandmother (also a nondrinker) had an enlarged liver. I am on cholesterol medication (Zacor). I have lost 50 pounds, eat a very nutritious diet to try to reduce my bad cholesterol level (little to no red meats). Any suggestions for me? Thank you.

Okay, I want to start a diet plan and i want to know if this is healthy and i would be able to lose 20 pounds. In the mornings run a mile after school do a 40 minute tae bo tape. Then jump rope and workout on a step machine for about 30-40. Then in the evenings run another mile. Also I'd be on a low calorie diet not nessesarily starving but 3 portion controlled meals a day with 2-3 snacks. Would this plan work? Is this healthy? How long would it take me to lose about 20 pounds? If you have any other contributions to my exersize routine please mention it. Thank You.

I love to do mask. I tried cream, mud, peel-off, tissue..all kinds of mask.
Somehow I have a question..
Does the peel-off mask wrinkle face if you use it a long run?
Everytime I peel off mask, I feel like harmful to skin...
Is washable mask generally better?
