Dark brown spotting after colposcopy?

I had a colposcopy about 2 weeks about and didn't really have much discomfort afterwards. My period was due on Monday and still hasn't come then yesterday I went to the bathroom and noticed some dark brown discharge in my underwear and I have been spotting brown discharge off and on only when I wipe since yesterday. My doctor said it could be old blood from the biospy or it could possibly be a sign of pregnancy since I'm late. My question is, have any of you spotted brown two weeks after a colposcopy? Also, have you ever heard of brown spotting being a sign if pregnancy? I also took a pregnancy test but it came back negative. My doctor said it could have been too soon and to wait until my period is a week late. I just wanted to see if I was alone on any of this. Thanks!

Does my 3 year old have Tourettes?

A couple of days ago (about 6) my son started "double blinking" and it started after he hung out with his half uncle who has Tourettes. I don't know if he picked it up, if it is a nervous habit or if he really has Tourette. My husband is telling me not to worry about it because him and his brother don't have the same dad...and it is genetic. I have taken him to his pedatrician today and she pretty much refered me to a Neuroligist to check him out. If I let them give him an ECG (is that right?) will it definatley let me know if he has tourettes or is it pretty hard to discover? I think Im going to cancel the appt. and see what happens in a month or so. See if anyother tics have developed. Has anyone else ever dealt with this? What symptoms should I be watching for? Thanks for your help.

What is a healthy diet that can help me lose about 15 pounds?

I had my son about a year ago and lost most of my weight a few months after I had him, but the remaining 15 pounds. I exercise an hour a day (cardio, pilates, aerobics). I do not eat cakes, junk food, and not even much bread. I had tried cutting everything in half, did low carb for a while, weight watchers and nothing has worked. With all the exercise I do, my body is probably in better shape prior to being pregnant and before I was pregnant I was perfert weight 155 at 5'11. Now I am 170 and the scale won't budge. I do not know what else to do. Are there any diets out there that can help (besides starving myself)? I would like to lose this weight and keep it off for a bit before getting pregnant again. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Fishy odor emitting from scalp and itchy red bumps, oily too...help!!!!!!!!?

Ever since I started my diet exclusively of dairy products, my scalp has been incredibly itchy and smells like old salmon (I know, ew!)! There are little squishy red bumps with a white tip all over!! Almost COVERING my scalp! I have never heard of this or had it happen to me before so I'm a little scared to be frank! And it's very oily, sometimes my pillow has grease marks on it after I wake up! Is this an allergic reaction or a condition or what? Or is this normal!?? HELP!

P.S. Also, this morning as I finished drinking my milk, I felt pressure on the back of my scalp, and a half hour later I noticed a clear secretion sort of "running down" (if you will) the back of my head!!!!!!!!!
