I just got through watching Flight 93 on television. I couldn't handle it then and I am having a hard time doing so now. How has your lives changed since then and how did you handle the attack?

I've been tested like 2wice this year already, and negative. I haven't had sex since june. Is there still a chance of testing positive if I'm not sexually active at this time? Maybe I'm just being paranoid because I'm going for another test soon.

I'm getting my wisdom teeth out tomorrow (all four). I've never had a tooth pulled let alone holes cut into my gums to remove a tooth. My brother's got infected and he was in pain for weeks. I have plans on friday ( 3 days after my teeth come out), will I feel better by then? Anything that you can tell me to make me feel better? Thanks!!

I just had a short, month-long bout with hyperthyroidism. The cause is unknown at this time, but for now I feel back to normal. Will it come back? Is this indicative of one cause more than another?

This sounds stupid. But I'm still really scared to the point I can't stop worrying about this.
I'm 14 & I haven't had my period for a little over 3 months. This is probably because I juss started like a year ago & have never really been that regular. Also since the end of last week my stomach feels kinda bloated but not much .. probably cause I've gained a couple pounds since going off a diet & eating holiday food [I'm 5'5" & 109 lbs. .. I was like 104 lol]. These are the only "signs" I have.
But anyways the other night [the night before I started freaking out] I had a horrible dream that I was pregnant! Since then I keep thinking I'm like pregnant .. which is dumb I have never done ANYTHING!!! with a guy. And I keep trying to talk myself out of it due to the fact its basically impossible but in the back of my mind I'm still scared cause I've heard rumors about girls getting pregnant from toliet seats & stuff !?!

I can't stop worrying. Can anyone convince me that I'm NOT pregnant?

I lost my voice last night. This happens to me about once a year. But this time it's bad. I really can't speak at all tonight and I'm scared. :( My daughter (age 5) wonders why Mommy can't talk to her. I am a teacher and I need my voice! Help! Does anyone have any suggestions, remedies, etc.? Also, has anyone else ever had this happen to them? The doctor told me to not speak but that is impossible! Could it be made worse by not sleeping enough? I appreciate your help!!!!!!!!!!1

Hi

My grand dad has a serious cough problem. All around the year even when he isn't sick he keeps on coughing every now n then and spits out mucus. Why does mucus accumulate in his throat so much?? He coughs even when he doesnt have flu, cold or anything similar. Is this a disorder of some kind? Is there a cure for this? I hope so coz its irritating :(

I've had chapped lips now for 5 months. I only use vaseline and eucerin to moisturize my lips and avoid further irritation. I'm 41, male, fit - NOT obese, NOT hypertensive, NOT diabetic - does anyone have an idea why and what to do?

P.S. - I am having a dental implant on my front tooth - at this point the pin is inserted and I'm 'waiting' for bone to fuse to the post. Could this be a factor?

I used to have really bad acne that covered basically my whole face, mostly my cheeks. I still get zits that pop up now and then, but its totally manageable. Now, the problem I'm having is that I have a bunch of scarring left over on my cheeks from the acne I used to have. I have been using the ProActiv 3-step system and i also have been using ProActiv's skin lightening lotion, though i havent noticed much of an improvement. I dont have any deep scarring or anything, but its about moderate. I hate having these marks on my face and ive been trying to get rid of them for a while. Is there any easy-enough solution to getting rid of moderate acne scarring without having to get involved in surgical processes such as dermabrasion?

I'm not expecting my next period until the 30th of December, but I'm experiencing some weird spotting that I've never had before. The blood is brownish in color, and sometimes a little pink. It started a few days ago, and I'm becoming a bit alarmed! I am going to phone my OB/GYN, but I have to work tomorrow, and might not be home in time to receive their return phone call, so I thought I'd check and see if anyone else has experienced anything similar. I'm not on BC - my hubby and I are actually trying for our second child and have been unsuccessful thus far. I've been reading a lot about ectopic pregnancies, and of course, scaring myself! Anyone else have a similar problem, or have experienced an ectopic pregnancy? Thanks for any help!
