I'm pretty sure I dont have DeQuervain's syndrome, but it was recommended to me that I might have it .I went to a website about it and there was a test to see if you do. The test HURT, i think more because my thumb has never moved like that. Could I have done anything serious? Or did I just aggrivate it?

I've been really down on myself for a long time. The guy I liked never noticed me, I was always bored, I felt so ugly. Then I started getting involved in stuff like sports and just making new friends. And I realized that the guy is a sick loser after all=) and now I feel great about the way I look=) But now I have a new problem: Even though I feel pretty confident, I still feel kinda weird. Is this normal? Has anyone had this experience before? If it's an underlying issue, what can I do to solve it? thanks a bunch!

I'm 17 and I have taken the birth control pill on and off for very severe cramps. I finally found one that worked: Levlin, which I am changing to Seasonale (which is the same hormonal formula, just taken for 3 months, not 3 weeks). One problem: I get severe nausea during the day. I know why the pill makes me nauseous, it's just that I feel like I have to choose between horrible cramps and horrible nausea.

Any thoughts? Any advice on how to stop the nausea?

If a 53 year old woman has not had her period in 10 months can she assume she is no longer fertile? At what point is birth control

It started when I was living in North Carolina around February or March of 2005. Its hard to recall but one day I noticed that the skin around my nose, mainly in the crack, was very dry, red, and scaley. I didn't do anything about it immediately. I moved to southern California in May of '05 and I assumed the climate could fix the redness. It didn't. I started applying the Aquaphor Extreme Dry Skin treatment everyday and everynight. It wasn't until last month when I realized a year and a half had gone by and it was still red. The scales are reduced a lot when the treatment is on but if I stop using it for a day it will all return. My cousin gave me an eye cream treatment for under the eyes and it seemed to start reducing the affected area but it's STILL NOT GONE! Slightly frustrating. I do stay in the sun a lot but why only my nose if the sun is the issue? The climate has no effect since I have moved back and forth many times since. Has anyone experienced the same thing? Any ideas?
