Health - 5 November 2006

The swelling is about the size of a golf ball. If I squish it, it dissappears for awhile, but always comes back. It appears to have been the cause of a few stomach aches (ie. If something rubs against it, while I have a stomach ache, it will cause even more pain, and once it actually felt like it was what caused me to vomit). So it might be linked to my stomach in some way, but I can't say for sure.

My friend said he had been popping all weekend and was now tired. I asked if that meant drinking or drugs, but he never replied and promptly ignored the question.
He has gone offline and i cant seem to get in touch on the phone or anything- is he alright?

I am 34 and my 3 year old daughter and I live w/my parents. My mother is an alcoholic. She has been to a detox place three times and has tried AA. After about a month she falls back into her old ways. Sometimes not as bad though. When she is drunk she nags and annoys everyone. I don't want my daughter around her because I think it is confusing for her. I know that the baby knows something is wrong with her. My daughter found her passed out on the floor bleeding all over. I thought that would be "rock bottom" for her. It wasn't. She has fallen before because of being drunk. Recently she woke up outside after falling and hitting her head. I am afraid to leave her home alone. What if she dies. My father travels a lot and everytime I say I am not staying home with her but I'm afraid she'll kill herself from falling or something. She lies constantly about it. I think that it's pretty selfish of her to have the entire family's life revolve around her bottle of Vodka that can never be found

My cold is tolerable most of the time and I haven't taken medication yet. However there are times (at night, and the morning, etc.) when my symptoms are worse and I plan to use the medication I just bought. Is it best to only use it every 4 hours consistently, or only if needed? Will either method get rid of my cold faster?

cats bathe themselves with thier tongues and then they are always clean and smell good.

so although it would be totally disgusting, would it be possible for humans to do the same thing?

i care to much about what other people think about me. im always shy when i go places and i have no self esteem. for example, if i go somewhere and someone acts like a real ***** to me, ill care what they say nd i wont stand up for myself. i know it shouldnt matter what they think, but i cant help it. how can i stop this? i mean, im not ugly at all, im smart, nd im a nice person, so really theres no reason for me to be shy. nd im never like this at home. im straight up and say it like it is. how can i be more like that in public?

I am very scared of shots. Does anyone have any stories about getting a tetanus/ flu shot that you could share with me. I like to know whats gonna happen. How did you handle it? Are you afraid of needles too? How do you handle the anticipation? I am driving myself crazy worrying, but I can't help it. What do you do after to ease the pain? Any/all stories and thoughts are appreciated. Plus I have to get this with someone I know, so I am afraid of looking like a wuss. I don't want my friend to laugh at me.

i think i have a problem, like a health problem, but im not sure what. every day for over four months, when i stand up, i start to black out, but never completely, and get dizzy. almost every single time i stand up, and every day for sure. (its like, have you ever stood up to fast, and you started to black out and got dizzy, well this happens to me daily, all the time). i try to not let it get to me, but about three months ago, i did this in my shower and ended up completely blacking out in my shower. i am always getting dizzy. i eat plenty of food, but i also have slightly high blood pressure. would that have anything to do w/ it?? Help!
