If my mother's father was bald, will I be bald? Nobody else in the whole family tree is bald except him.

I have been abnormally hungry, it's like I'm starving for food but I'm NOT, I feel that way even just a while after eating... for the last few days. Mostly I have been hungry for meat and starchy veggies (potatoes)...mostly meat though. Is there anything that can be causing this? I know I'm not pregnant. I'm not working out/exercising more than usual...except last Sat. I pushed my swimming workout pretty hard. Nothing for the last few days though. My husband says my diet must be missing something and my appetite is reflecting that???
Oh and yeah I eat healthy 95% of the time, not too much not too little, a mixture of all the food groups. I've never been this hungry even when I was pregnant. Any Ideas? Because It needs to go away ASAP! Thanks!

I have severe Patella Chondromalacia, for about 5 years, and I am only 16 years old.
I have had 6 knee surgeries, I have gone to physical therapy, religiously, I have been on tons of medicines, I have tried pain management, natural rememdies, and I am developing arthritis in my knees now.
Do you have any suggestions on medicines or doctors in the New York, Pennsylvania or Ohio area.
Any suggestions
Because what I have been doing is not working.
My knee is structural okay for now, but I have severe pain.
What about any kind of knee replacement, am I too young.
Your opinions would be great

This may be kind of a weird question but I'm going to the dentist today and was wondering about shaking hands. They need to keep sterile hands so are there any rules about shaking hands with docotors or dentists or veterinarians or health care workers in general? Are they supposed to be the one to initiate greeting or goodbye shaking hands or what?

I guess what I am wondering, since she is older, she stands to lose so much in life. Her teeth are starting to look transluscent around the edges, she has those sores around her mouth, she grinds her teeth all night long, etc. The report is that people can recover from meth abuse, but the average user is a lot younger. Physical Recovery, mental recovery seems more possible, being young also means being impressionable either way, for better or worse..older people, can they recover from such an impacting drug?are effects more permanent? How do you get someone to admit they are using, how can you help when they don't want to admit it. I am really worried about her, but feel helpless

I have had anal sex before, well last week I had anal. The next day I was a little gasy (which is to be expected) like 4 days later, when I went to the bathroom I couldn't go, it feels like something could be blocking, or something? yesterday I went and there was some blood, but today it feels like I need to go again, but can't. Sorry I know its kind of gross. But has anyone had this problem? Should I be concerned or will it just go away?

I felt like I was going crazy this morning, so I didn't go to my French class. Instead, I ended up picking on my face for half an hour so now it's all red...I seem to do this all the time, and then I just think well, that was stupid...I do it sometimes on my thighs and arms too. I just kinda zone out and do it. I used to cut myself sometimes but I haven't in over a year. Is this some form of self mutilation or something? I seem to have a hard time coping with emotions. I've tried to completely shut them down, but then when they crop up, I just don't know what to do. I also can't seem to motivate myself to do anything. It was hard to get up, and then I decided there wasn't any point to go to class today. I can't seem to ever have any energy either.

I have gallstones; haven't once had what I think is an attack. Instead I've been bloated for 4 months straight, generally just feeling sick and gross. I dont eat meat or dairy, and very little fried foods. Once I had what I thought might be an attack; it felt like someone kicked me as hard as they could in the right upper back but it A) came 5 hours after a meal of oatmeal, B) hurt really bad but not as bad as I thought an attack would feel, and C) continues to ache dully about a week later (today.) Maybe this was a stone getting stuck in a duct? A stuck stone getting more stuck? I am scheduled for an ERCP in two days, maybe this will clear things up. Anyone know from experience what might be going on here?

I just had my period two weeks ago and all of the sudden it is back. I had no warnings like PMS and breast soreness. I don't know what happened. My fiance thinks that I should take a pregnancy test but I don't think I should. I haven't been under a lot of stress or anything so I just don't get it! Help!! What might have caused this? Why does it happen?
