Health - 21 November 2006

When sick with a flu, especially a fever, I notice a significant change in my thoughts, i feel depressed and anxious, no stress tolerance.As i get better my mood lifts. Also When I take over the counter antihistamine meds' (claritin) or Nyquil, i also feel the low mood. Could this be histamine disfunction?

Do women derive sexual pleasure from rubbing their breasts against men's arms?

I just happen to be very tall (6'7) so therefore my arms elbows are higher that the chests of most 5'9 women.

I've noticed a number of times that girls who act flirtacious tend to come near me when I'm just STANDING THERE NOT BOTHERING ANYONE and next thing you know, I've got breasts rubbing on my arms.

In a man's mind when a breast or a woman's butt brushes against him, it sends off an alarm.

At first I didn't notice it but after about .3 seconds I realized - there is a pair of t*tt*es on my arm.

I am a jokster kinda guy so I actually called the girl on it --

"you keep on sexualy harrsing me by brushing your breasts against my manly arms" *tee hee*

and the girl laughed about it - but she KEPT DOING IT.

Then today, I reached up to a doorframe to stand there and anther such female walked up to "look out the door" and she seemingly rested her breasts on my arm.

I’m 5'4-5'5, and around 105lbs. I’m usually around 97lbs, and people always said I was “tiny” or “too skinny” (not that I agree). Anyway thanksgiving is coming and I’m with my family, grandparents, mother father etc. It is driving me crazy...everyone is being so insanely rude about my weight, which I’m finding frustrating and hurtful. Yes, yes, yes, I’m chubby. Whatever. I’ll change that, and get back down to 97, but the fact is, I’m not huge and I know it. My grandmother (who I haven’t seen in two yrs) keeps saying things like “you know, you really should not eat that. Unless you want to get fatter then you already are”. To me that is horrifying, it may be true, but it just seems mean. My mom was getting on my case about my “weight” and I mentioned how I’m not THAT much heavier then usual and she says “you ran this last summer when you were living with Jen, and muscle ways a whole lot more then fat”. I’m just wondering if for one, I am so amazingly “fat” that it’s ok for them to go on about it?

I have had cold sores since I was young, but they always seem to happen around this time of year, especially since I am in college and stressed now...I know it's not really stress-related, as that's an old wives tale, but why does a cold sore come back? Why does it lie dormant some years?

lately when i walk for more than say ten minutes that i have a pain in my left shin, muscular as opposed to bone, it is like a lactic burn you might get in the gym. i find that it is increasingly difficult to bend my foot up and find myself 'slapping' my foot down with each step as opposed to 'rolling' from heal to toe. i am 37 and otherwise in pretty good shape. any ideas before i go see the doc

I have a friend and she hasn't had her menstrual period for a year now. I told her to consult a doctor about it, but until now she hasn't done that. I realized this morning that she doesn't drink water that much and I was wondering if that's the cause of it?

I have a family member who has really gone off the deep end. By the sounds of her actions (pushing people away, then angry when they're distant, etc) I really think she is bi-polar and always has been. Problem is, she would never seek treatment and the thought of giving her any advice, frankly, scares me. She is highly unreasonable and irrational. We don't know what to do. Any recommendations are welcome.
