Does the Ab lounge really work? What is the best diet pill that will burn a lot of belly fat off my body. I would like to have a six pack by the summer. How long will it take me to lose body fat through swimming.

Mostly at the base of my skull. My neck has been hurting too. I'm thinking stress or eyestrain. I don't wear glasses but I don't think I've ever had my eyes checked either.

The victim taking this medication has been put on this drug for the wrong reasons. She is not bipolar. Has anyone experienced horrible withdrawl symptoms? She takes it twice a day...do you think if it was reduced to once a day for a while and then not at all she would suffer?

Goji berries is described as small red berries from the mountains of Himalayas dat have been used by the chinese as medicine for diabetes since ancient times...this sounds to me like the wolf berries found in many chinese herbal concoctions and a key ingredient in chinese anti-diabetic tea. Am I right to conclude the Goji berry and Chinese Wolf berry is one and the same?

diabetic neuropathies - but I'm not diabetic.

I Know I'm not - as my parents are and my doc and I check every 3 months.

What else could it be? I'm going to see an internist tomorrow.

My bf & I have been using VCF (vaginal contraceptive film) for a few months. It contains 28% nonoynol-9.

It says you must wait @ least 15 minutes after insertion before intercourse which we usually wait 30 minutes to an hour. A few times, especially when I'm on top, he gets a burning feeling. After sex he says his member really hurts and it is painful to urinate. The pain usually subsides within a day.

I have been unable to find anything on the internet that suggests vcf can cause allergic reactions in men - only talks about women.

For those who would suggest either me or my bf have an std, that's not the case at all as we are both clean. He never had this problem when I was on depo or on the pill, just sometimes when we use vcf & usually only when I'm on top.

We definitely will stop using it altogether as I suspect he has a sensitivity to it or an allergy - but I was just curious if anyone else ever had this problem?

P.S. VCF claims is lasts up to 3 hours.

I know i suffer from depression and panic attacks. I take medication and go to a therapist. But I could really use some cheering up right now. So if you want to write something that might make me smirk.

Has it taken years away from your life as you've wasted hours upon hours with fear and anxiety? I have some OCD and I can say yes to this, but what is your experience.......perhaps it hasn't affected you as much?

I'm not depressed right now. Nor have I been for some time now. Occasionally I get the blues, but I live a life where it seems to be an addiction for me to become depressed. Sometimes trying frantically to force it out of myself. lol, man, I can't even explain it at times. It's so damn insane to warpingly enjoy it. I'm the smartest one in my whole family with the darkest secrets. How enigmatic. Anyway, anyone know of a good way to give a depression a boost. I know Sleeping Pills are know to cause it, but Idk if I want to start popping pills.

I'm looking for a natural deoderant that ACTUALLY works because I read in alternative health magazine that normal deoderant has been linked to breast cancer in women due to some nasty chemicals commonly used (it said that the most common area for a woman to get breast cancer lumps is nearest to the arm pit area where she puts deoderant on!)

The magazine reccomended using natural deoderants. I then read online that alot of them dont work very well.

Thats why I am asking. What product would you reccomend?

thanks!

My son, who is 2 1/2, is in the middle of potty training. After an "accident" in the middle of the night, i put a diaper on him when he went to bed the next night. When we awoke the next morning, I noticed to red wide shaped lines on his upper buttocks..almost in the same exact spot on either side. Could this be diaper rash? He's never had one before...even as an infant! Ive put desitin on it all day, but it doesnt seem to be helpin at all! I actually think one side may be gettin worse than the other! Hes only been out of diapers for about a month..and never seemed to have a problem before. Im wondering if it irratated his skin or if he couldve gotten into something outside while he was playing! please PLEASE help! And give me some pointers on how to cure it! THANKS!!

I was playing football over the weekend and i guess my shoe didnt fit me so my toes were kinda squashed inside as i was running. afterwards i saw my whole big toe bruised. its not the skin thats bruised, its the layer under my toe nail. the color is blackish purple and kind of hurts a little but i still can walk. Should i go see a doctor or will it cure by itself? im hoping i dont have to cut my whole toe nail off :(

Polio drops-mainly COW-COX serum drops,are used as anti-polio vaccines drops in childhood.These are said to be immunizing drugs which create anti bodies in blood.But polio twists the bones and stops their growth,without affecting the blood cells or groups in any way.Does it affects WHITE CELLS/LYMPHOCYTES or Red cells or merely the calcium -protein fiberation.?

My 10 year old son who is sleep walking and talking.He will get up out of bed and come to me and ask if that water in his room can drown him.Regardless of the answer I give him he will say oh and go back to bed.He has brought me his pillow and told me to keep it,it has bugs.He appears to be sleeping while he does this.He got out of my house at 3am and went to the neighbors crying saying I was not at home.The next morning he remember nothing.he never remembers a thing he says or does the night before.He even thinks Im making this stuff up.Last night he tried to go outside at 11:30pm saying he`s going out to play.I put him on the couch and he was sound asleep but in a sweat.I have 5 other boys ages 24 months,9yrs,14yrs,15yrs and 16yrs old.None of the others do this.how can I put a stop to this without medication because I refuse to medicate a healthy child.Im really scared now for his safety.I live in the country now.Too much out here to get a lil boy at night.
