I have never smoked, am in good health, and breath easily even when walking up and down 4 flights of stairs. None of the indications I've read online concerning lung disease seem to apply to me. Part of me says "If it ain't broke, don't fix it.", but the other part says "Early intervention is the key!" Advice, please.

I had a UPPER Tooth Extraction yesterday morning at about 8am

Now it's 24 hours later.

I have a dull throbbing pain in the extraction site..
I have not sucked on a straw.Or Smoked (which was easy considering I dont)
I have ate nothing but soft foods and did everything my sheet said to do.

It was just a SIMPLE extraction.No putting to sleep,No stiches.But there is pain today that Is very painful.

My "nurse" Reassured me that Top tooth extractions HARDLY NEVER ever get dry sockets.

How can I tell for sure if I have one?

Does anyone here have as part of their mental health problem, an inability to feel the feelings in the heart, like love, forgiveness, gratitude, sadness, caring. I pray constantly to God to give me these feelings back but I can't pray with my heart - its like a stone. I also get cold shivers through it as though my soul is being taken away.

This is part of my title for my dissertation that is exploring the reverence of extreme thinness and weight loss in society and the media. Are the super-thin portrayed as an elitist group? Any opinions are welcome. I am particularly looking to do an anonymous email interview with someone who has suffered with an eating disorder. Thanks.

I think I might have herpes, but I am waiting on the test results.

By boyfriend is very paranoid and has trust issues - although I do nothing to encourage this.

How could I have them? I have not cheated. Don't think he has, but you do never know.

Been with him for 1 year and having unprotected, before that 3 sexual partners but used condoms, before that unprotected sex with my ex who I was with for 7 years.

I know I need help. I have looked and looked for a therapist that specializes in eating disorders. I am having a difficult time finding one. I have tried regular therapy without success. Some one else must have dealt with this disease and won. Any help of any kind would me most appreciated.

Some files have the extension .SI - others have no extensions at all - but the file names are just a series of numbers.

Is there ANY WAY I can open these files to see the images? Do they need to be re-encoded or something?

Any help would be appreciated...

I have a friend who has been having severe intermittent pain in the abdomen for 3 days. He says it starts in the stomach then radiates to the back and then shoots up to the jaw and the top of the head. Does anyone know what that might be?

The horse I was riding yesterday morning fell down and I fell off. About 20 minutes after the fall my arm started hurting about an inch below my shoulder. It hurts more as time goes by. What are the signs of it being broken, how long should I wait to call the doctor? Thanks.

My son has be recently diganosed with allergy induced asthma. I give him his meds every night ( singular, claritian, nasonex pulmicort) and then it flairs up zopanex. My question is he just had bhronchitis in november. Here it is mid december and I noticed a cough again. Last January he had to be hospilized for it. I am giving him his meds like clockwork. Never misses a dose but he keeps getting sick. Is that normal for a kid with alleregy induced asthma ( he is allergic to dust mites and mold) . He does not act like he feels bad but that cough concerns me. I take him to the doctor ( might as well go on and move in) he has missed over a week of school so far. Does it get better as he gets older? Does he need more aggressive treatment? Or is this just part of having an asthmatic child????

so i got bloodtests done, due to my irregular periods, to c whats wrong, at first my docter said i might have a thyroid problem, but the tests came back 'fine'

but i have 90% of Hypothyroidism sypmtoms tho, and i want a second opinion of a specialist (endrocologist) , except how do i see one?

Do i ask my docter if he can refer me to one?
Do i look one up in the yellow pages?
:S

and does a endrocologist substitute for my doctor? how much is it to go c one?

has anyone gone to one b4? was it worth it?

- or do u think i should just not bother seeing a endrocologist, since my bloodtests came out as 'fine'...

I rear ended a van last october. My car was smashed about two feet in on the passenge side. I went to the ER the next day. The doctor there told me that I had spastic muscles and that they where pinching my nerves. I had a shocking pain that ran down my arm and beleive it or not my right breast would vibrate here and there. It was about three months when those symtoms passed. But now a year later, I have a awful pain in the left side of my neck. there are only a few positions that I can rotate my neck with out it hurting. The pain goes from my bottom neck on my spine and shoots to the left side. I'm going to set up a doctors appointment as soon as my insurance kicks in. But the pain is just so annoying and I'm afriad I might move the wrong way and make it worse.

I've been going to the gym for 8 months but am seeing very little change in my weight. My fitness level has greatly improved, every six weeks I change my workout and make it slightly harder to do. I've got muscle forming on most parts of my body but I can't seems to shift the flab around my abs or upper thighs. I do alot of crunches on the gym ball and use the leg press. But it's not making much difference. Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated. I eat very healthy too, lots of fresh veg and fruit etc, nothing sugary (cakes, chocs,sweets etc) or dairy. Since I've started I've only lost a stone...I know it can take a long time, but it feels like its taking too long. Someone I know went to weightwatchers and has lost four stone in the same time, without doing much exercise. I would join but it's expensive and I have gym membership to pay for.

Please help........
