I'm 20 years old and I live in San Jose, California. I want to apply for some kind of health insurance. I'm on a very limited income, and if there was a free program that would be the most practical for me. I also have a tooth that needs to be removed. I've been neglecting to get this done for a few years, and i think its time. This would be easier with some finacial aid. Well any information as to what (medical or medicare or...) kind of insurance i might want, and how (what type of government office) i would go about applying would be much appreciated.

The National insurance scheme would barely cost the cost of a major illness no matter how long you have paid into it and yet we expect the best service and best treatment to be there.
The NHS is undoubtedly struggling, would it be better to introduce health insurance schemes which would cover long term illnesses while immediate and life threatening trips to a and e would remain free.

I am too scared to bring it up with my Gyno. But I wonder if it is something I should be worried about. It is a embarrassing problem, is there something on the market to make yourself not lubricate so much?

My sister has very oily skin (looks wet practically) and lots of acne. I have pretty good skin, normal, not oily, and just a few break outs every now and then. What causes her to have this terrible skin, is it heredity? I feel so bad for her, she uses everything and nothing seems to help dry it out.

a hot spa/jacuzzi.

Background information: fertility doctors recommend against overheating the testes. An example of overheating would be using a hot spa for more than 5 minutes. However, I used to enjoy using the spa quite a bit, but I want to be able to use it while protecting myself with some type of heat insulating device.

I had a c-section nearly 3 years ago and have had nothing but trouble ever since. I have had a number of infections and the site is always itchy, red and quite sore. Every doctor I have ever asked about this has basically put it down to me being overweight and because the scar is under a 'roll of fat' it doesnt get much air so gets infected easily. To an extent I can handle this but surely Im not the only overweight person to ever get a c-section??
Anyways, last week I had to go have an internal ultrasound due to problems with my periods. The ultrasound showed that I have fluid and blood 'floating in and out' of the c-section scar on the inside of my womb. My GP has no idea what that means and has reffered me to a GYN. Of course I cant get in to see one until the end of the month and in the mean time I am freaking out. Does anyone have any clue what this means??

I have a horrible wisom tooth growing up under another tooth, which is causing excruciating pain as it is trying to push my other tooth out. I want to know has anyone ever pulled out any of their teeth themselves? I am completely broke and cannot afford a dentist, the tooth is loose a tiny bit already. Help! I'm in pain and can't sleep!
