My 7 yro nephew fell into a coma today as a result of his blood sugar level being too low. It was sudden and he started fitting. Has anyone else had experience with this or have a child with this? For the record he is OK - but very tired from his ordeal.

I posted a couple of places that I lost around 30 to 35 lbs in about wo to three months and i got many responses that sounded concerned.I don't understand why .My Doctor seems to think its great for health.I didn't do it on purpose.We moved to a higher altitude and changed our lifestyle somewhat from eating desserts and about whatever we wanted to a light breakfast and eating a well balance dinner.Sometimes I have a light snack in the evening but not often and since we started eating this way we don't find it necessary to eat that much.We didn't do it on purpose but according to the doctor its a good thing.I just didn't understand that shock of people saying they worried about the weight loss that quickly .Its not like it was only me so that rules out somekind of weird illness she lost about that much as well.We both needed it becasue we used to eat out alot and really go all out for big desserts and lots of food.We stopped eating out and that helped alot and we eat healthy .?????????

I haven't been flossing my teeth daily as I'm supposed to.

But I just did today and noticed that my gums kinda bled between my teeth. It wasn't POURING OUT or anything... it was just bleeding a little bit.

Is it because it's been a while since I flossed or what?

Actually right now, my gums are feelin' a little sore.

I'm twenty one years old, and feel like i've served a sentence that long. I want to die so bad. I feel life is pointless, and so far ive only experienced pain. I had sex for the first time last night, and it was with a girl who is my friend, and i thought it was something more, and it turns out its just drunk sex. I cant help but feel anything but pain. Its not just her, I think some of us were made for life, and some of us weren't. I happen to be one of the people who wasnt. I know some of you would like to say turn to god, but to me he isnt real. I've tried to believe, and only find emptiness. Well if god isnt real and this life is all we have, then i have been given a bad hand, and im ready to fold.

I remember seeing the film "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," and the character Ian said he had a zit that morning and it went away after putting Windex on it.

I'm not asking for advice on how to get rid of zits; I was just wondering if Windex really worked for getting rid of a zit.

How would you know if one was in your ear or your child's ear? I found what I believe to be a tick crawling on my dog tonight. Without realizing it was even a bug I picked it off with my fingers. When I saw it was a bug I freaked and threw it. When I was looking for it I realized it was on my shirt. I freaked again and knocked it off me. I found it on the floor and squished it but now I am all paranoid. I feel like they are all over me. I checked my body and my children and didn't find anything. My ear itched inside (it isn't now) but it got me paranoid. Help! Please ease my mind.

In these days of NHS cutbacks is it right that artificial means of having children should use up funds that could go towards drugs that improve the outlook for cancer sufferers.

I want to quit smoking to save money and for the sake of my health but every time I give up i get paranoid and angry at the slightest thing! I think half of it is all in my head, I convince myself that life is not worth living without smoking.
Any ideas, tips or suggestions?

I mean: Is research intentionally slowed down or even sidetracked to justify expensive treatment. In other words: Does the medical profession gets fatter through expensive, barely useful treatments?
