I just recently got sick. I have a scratchy throat, my glands in my neck are very swollen, my body is all achy, my ears hurt, my nose is all runny, my gums are sooo sore and I brush twice a day, and coughing. I basicly feel like crap! I need to know what I can so to get over this and what is it. I dont know if I just have a cold or the flu or what. I have never experienced all of these things at the same time and never the gum thing. I want to know what meds to take over the counter. I cant go to the dr. because I have no insurance. Oh and I dont know if I have a fever because I dont have a thermomiter.

I just came back from a date with a girl I recently met. She was acting different tonight, kind of jittery, talking a lot of rubbish and acting evasive towards me. Last time we spoke she was fine and I really thought we had a connection.
I really like this girl but at the same time I don't know if I could put up with her treating me like crap for no reason.
Should I back off now and forget her?
I haven't felt this way about anyone before and its messing with my head.
Can I have some serious advice please from people who may suffer bi polar or anyone who is involved with a bi polar suffer.

It has been suggested by some that flu shots are not only unnecessary but actually harmful and are promoted by profiteers. The price has jumped from $5-10 to $20-30 in San Francisco Bay Area in the past two years! What is the price in your area and what do you think about the effectiveness of the flu shots?

If I ask for half of the dosage when taking a flu shot, can the nurse use the left-over portion from another patient? If yes, what are the risks? Also, isn't the needle also shared? What's the proper procedure to give half-dosage flu shots?

I've been experiencing stiff joints especially around the finger joints. Also, some back pain and knee pain. I'm only 20. Will these symptoms disappear or am I having athritis? I've visited the docter and I was told not to worry but that I should see a physiotheraphist just for my knees. What about the other areas like my finger joints, elbows, and my back? Has anyone experienced these pains before and will they eventually go away? Are these signs of Parkinsons? Please help.
