Health - 14 December 2006

Last night I felt a little dizzy, but I was ok. Today I was at school and around 11 I got a headache. That's normal, I get menstual headaches alot. Then around 1 or so I got a minor nausea feeling. By 2:30 I went out of class to the restroom... I had horrible menstrual cramping and I felt sick. I started getting dizzy a bit. I came home took medicine and went to sleep. I'm now up but my throat hurts really bad. I took my tampon out and I feel a bit better. I've had a time like this about a year ago. Exams are tommrow, I can't miss school, and I hate wearing pads. I don't want to worry my mom because she is scared to death of TSS... I don't know what to do. I feel better except with my throat. We have viruses going around school... HELP!

I was at my doctor last week and mentioned to her that I'm getting married and trying to lose weight. Immediately she offered to prescribe me a drug called Phentermine, and recommended that if I use it at all, I should take it only as needed for appetite suppression (like half a pill every one or two days). I looked it up online, but I can't find any good reviews from people who are similar to me...

I'm 24, not obese, just a little overweight by about 15 pounds. I would love to work out more, but travel a lot which is tiring, and I spend most of my time sitting in front of the computer. However I do watch what I eat, I try to keep my calories low but seem to have reached a plateau in weight loss.

What I'd like to hear is some feedback from people who really used phentermine and had a similar situation/body type. I am just trying to see if it really works, and if the side effects outweigh the benefits. (if my doctor offered it, it should be safe, right?)

Iam reffering to womens hormone replacement pills, what are they made of? In my great grandmas time ,they took no pills, they drank teas , warm milk with a bit of rum , took hot or cold baths, walk a lot and did more talking! Third world women do not suffer this malady! The pills are destroying our bodies and putting mucho greens in the lab pockets! I too take teas with a bit of rum! Do lots of walking, talking and sex-ing!

When I don't need to get up for work, or a dentist's appointment etc., I really can't get up. I also can't get to sleep when I want. For instance, I woke up at 3pm today. Most people go to bed 16 hours after they get up...I can usually do better than that....but it still means going to bed at say 6am. How can I force myself into a better pattern? Can I tire myself out quickly doing/not doing something or eating/not eating something?

I really want to lose at least 30 pounds, but I don't want to take any diet pills or anything like that. I think I eat healthy, but maybe I need to eat healthier. Any answers that can help?

i'm almost twenty...and my facial skin still breaks out like when I was fifteen! it's more sensitive that the rest of my skin (i've NEVER had a pimple on my neck, chest, back, etc) and if i even touch my face for too long, i'll find something there the next morning. it's not acne by any means, just annoying... i've tried everything. i have naturally pale skin ( my dad's family is irish) and i also have Hashimoto's syndrome, does anyone know ANYTHING that might help me?? please...it's getting a little annoying!

PS. i'm allergic to a chemical that's found in all of these: Proactiv, Acne Free, Nature's cure and other's of those sorts.

I'm 15-years-old and I have a strange feeling in my chest. It's kind of hard to describe, but it feels a little heavy and tight. I don't do direct exercise a lot, only sometimes, which will change in January because I will be joining a gym. I'm not in perfect shape, as I do have my flaws, but I'm certainly not obese or very overweight. I'm more naturally curvy than overweight, which is a trait I get from my mother. This feeling in my chest has been going on for a few weeks, and my mother has already made an appointment for me to see my doctor next week. At first I thought that my bras weren't fitting right, so I tried to see how I would feel without my bra, and although it made it feel better, the strange feeling came back sometimes. What do you think is wrong? Serious answers, please, because it's starting to worry me.

or wet weather? or windy weather? or is that all just a bunch of old people crazy talk? you would think that if germs, viruses, and bacteria were cold they wouldnt be as active as they are in a warm climate.

I'm never truly happy... I can joke and laugh and am temporarily happy... but then again, I'm a pretty good actress when I'm not temporarily happy. Someone I don't even know said about a picture of mine that they saw sadness in my face...when I look closely at it, I can see it too. Why is this?

I've had this (possible) allergy for as long as I can remember, but whenever I drink my morning coffee, and also whenever I eat chocolate (especially dark, bitter chocolate), I immediately start sneezing. It's not painful or anything extreme, but it happens like clockwork. It goes away as soon as I stop eating/drinking, and there are no other side effects. Anyone have this, or have heard of something similar?
