Somebody please help. Desperate here. Due to her small size and my larger size she always suffers from pain/soreness after intercourse. At times she has had swelling and bleeding. She has seen a doctor, not sure what type, and they said that due to the severity of it that it might cause her unable to have kids.

Is this true? Are there any options? We have used plenty of precautionary methods. Lube, making sure she's aroused etc..
Should we seek a specialist in any particular field?

I thank all of you for your help. This has really affected our relationship and I am desperate for answsers. Again, thank you.

OK, My friend has this habit of picking at her arms mostly and it results in a bunch of little scabs and scars. Most of the time, I dont think she even realizes when she does it. It does bother her that her arms look pretty gross sometimes but she doesnt know how to stop picking. She says she itches alot so she'll start scratching and then it just goes from there. She literally finds things to pick, weather it be a pimple, dry skin, in grown hair, whatever, she MUST pick it. She's done this for as long as she can remember but it seems like she's doing it more often. Could this be a result of stress in her life or maybe a form of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? and how does she go about stopping this habit? Any help you can can offer is appericated and I'll be sure to let her know any suggestions. She does want to stop this so she is really just looking for any answers ( nice ones please) from anyone who may do this same thing or from someone who knows anyone like this?. Thanks all.

On Christmas Eve, my daughter and I are alone and then my she goes to her dads for Christmas and its also been written this way in our divorce papers.
My ex's family has always had their gathering on Christmas day.
My familiy has always celebrated Christmas on Christmas Eve and we all go to church at mid-night.
I have an older sister that's horrible, 8 years ago she changed our family tradition to getting together on Christmas Day. My mentioning that I would not have my daughter was disregarded. I've gone alone and been left out of conversations, the food I brought was "accidently" forgotten or dropped on the floor. I'm fed up with the mean, hateful games my sister plays and fed up with the rest of the family allowing her to treat me this way,.
What can I do to make it pleasant for my daughter. We don't have much money to do much of anything. Thank you for your help.

My period is about 3 weeks late and I'm getting nervous. I know all about sex and protection and what I should do to find out if I'm pregnant (etc)... but my question is how late has your latest period been? a week? 2 weeks? a month? Does anyone think I could be this late just because of stress?
My periods aren't very normal... I don't think I've ever had more than 2 periods in a row that came on the same day the following month. But I'm overly paranoid right now I guess.

I've been having "pms'y" feelings since a little before I should have gotten my period.

I guess my diet has changed SLIGHTLY as well. Anyways I'll stop going on and on now. Thank you for the input and please no "get a pregnancy test" replies- I know very well to do so =P

I recently fell on a close hand, hitting the hand from the front. I believe I broke it right behind the knuckle on my pinky, on the hand side, not the finger. I'm avoiding the doctor because I don't have insurance, but I need to go... what should I expect to pay for xrays and to get it set, and all that? Thanks!

I am middle-age guy with normal cholesterol, no diabetes and normal chemistries. I had some blocked arteries for years now & yet I managed with really no chest pains or suffering. Last year - a car ran me over and I had much loss of blood and went into cardiac shock from the impact - & - had a MASSIVE heart attack which they said destroyed large areas of my heart muscle.
since the accident, I breathe with gasping if it's cold outside, or if I get anxiety. these symptoms are solely from the heart attack. I refuse to do bypass surgery - they admit it will only stay clear for some years and then later re-clog. I was told that there is no therapy, medicine or anything which will repair my severely DAMAGED heart muscle.- which give me symptoms. My ejection fraction is better than 50%. Prior to attack I had NO chest pains, I walked freely, climbed stairs. etc.etc. I also was told that my body created excellent COLLATERAL vessels to feed my heart,
What hopes do I have?

Sup
For some dumb reason this past July, I thought of trying to lift a barbell heavier than I could possibly manage. I was doing an incline bench press and tore my left rotator cuff. I've been getting good rest and haven't worked out since then. I visit my chiropractor every week for ultra sound treatment and some other stuff.
Just last week, I lifted a TV for my friend thinking I was in good shape as my shoulder hadn't hurt from quite some time. And......the next day, it started hurting again and it's still hurting now, 4 days later. Hurting as in, when I lift it to a certain angle, not when walking or sleeping.
It's like 5months now since I had the injury and it's so frustrating it hasn't healed yet. Any advice I could get to possibly how long it would take, what should I do and should I opt for a surgery (the last thing I wanna do)?
Will I be able to get back to the gym soon? :(
Thanks

I think I may be taking too much albuterol...a lot too much. And it makes me really shaky. I feel like I'm so shaky I almost can't walk and have trouble thinking. I've read that overdoses can cause seizures and such. Is this type of thing what I am experiencing? I'm not so sure on what the dosage should be, but I seem to have breathing troubles a lot. I think half of the problems could be caused by the albuterol. Part of the problem is that my breath seems to come out as if I'm crying or trembling and my heart is racing.

He keeps insiting he can do it himself, and he obviously can't. But he won't go to rehab willingly either, this has been going on for about 8yrs. and i am afraid he will end up dead from the addiction. Any advice or insight with this would be great!
