If I wanted an NHS dentist, I would have to travel over 200 miles a year just for a check-up and pay 3% of my salary.

GP standards aren't that much better. Is private treatment the only practical alternative?

Im a girl who just turn 16 this past august 2006...
My mom is 5 ft. 1 and 1/2, my dad = 5 ft. 8

I got my period when i was 12, but yet even to this day they are very irregular (i could go up to 5 months without it), do u think that has anything to do with my shortness?

And is it true that after 3 yrs. of ur 1st period u can't grow anymore? (maybe it is, because since my period, I didn't even grow a centimeter...)

The LAST growth spurth i remember is when i was aroun 10 or 11ish yrs. old, I grew 5 inches in one summer. I KNOW for sure i didn't grow at around , 13, 14, 15 yrs. old...(even 12 yrs.)

So is that my FINAL growth spurth, (which i had at 10/11ish yrs. old)?

Can a girl only have ONE growth spurth?


ALSO post, if your a women who grew miraculously at age 16, 17, 18+....and state when u got ur period, and parents height...

thanks

CAN I STILL GROW? will milk help? anything?

i want to start including flax seeds into my diet... is it best ground or whole? As well, ive heard that it should be stored in the fridge, but when i buy them, they are kept at room temp. in the bulk section. Is its nutritional value diminished? Do health food stored keep them at cooler temps?

Help! My husband is severly addicted to diet pills. First it was ephedra and now he is taking Hydroxycut and Hoodia (and might be more). I know he is taking at least 8-10 per day. His behavior is off the wall...severly depressed , then manic, angry, and out of control.- he can't sleep. He finally admitted that he has a problem but just thinks he can stop cold turkey and says "yeah, right there is really a support group of diet pill junkies" .
What makes it worse is that he knows what herbals and any type of medication can do as he is a pharmaceutical rep.
This isn't just "i'm in a bad mood day". This is severly drastic from what he is usually like and every day gets worse.
Any suggestions on what to do?

I don't have any injuries and I'm already aware of good pain and bad pain at the gym. But yeah, stretching my hamstrings is excruciating while i hold the stretch. I hear that there's a nerve running along the muscle, so it hurts more when it stretches. Can anyone verify this?

I noticed I have some white spots in the back of my throat. I don't know if it's associated with having oral sex with my husband. We seperated for a short time then I let him back home. My other symptoms are fever, chills, body aches, ha (headaches), swollen glands and pain in my neck, and sore throat, at night it hurts the most like when I talk and stuff and a slight loss of appetite, although I never really ate anyways. Does anyone know what this could be? Is it strep or a std??
