I guess I must have been hit in the neck playing backyard football yesterday, though I apparently did not realize it (or didn't think enough *of it* to remember it) at the time.

Weirdly, the swelling is on both the left and right sides of the frontal region of my neck, right between my adam's apple (which is NOT swollen) and my pulses on each side. The soreness isn't overwhelming, but it is annoying and a little stiffening.

Ice didn't seem to help at all, strangely, as it does with most swelling episodes.

my skin is so sensitive that if i touch my face, the oils in my figner tips damage my skin.
I need something that can wash away the grime and deep clean my pores. I always have ingrown hairs and always have alot of breakouts. I also need a good shaving cream.
I am going to walmart for these things..so something widely available would be great.

I will try and give a little background. We have been together for 5 months (were good friends before this) and obviously have been taking things slow. She has slept with a few partners compared to me (both in late 20’s) and contracted the virus through a cheating boyfriend. I TRUST her and know she is telling me the truth about her past & how she got the virus. I was supportive when she told me and just feel real scared about my safety!
We have something that I can’t walk away from and don’t know what to do now. It has changed the way I look at her and I am real disappointed. I have read quite a bit about the virus and have an appointment at a local clinic to talk to a counselor. I don’t have anyone that would rationally understand the way I feel about her (she may be the one!)….and wonder if the risk would be worth something that isn’t guaranteed. I would appreciate any help and support. Mike

Seriously now...my mother is losing it. She could quite possibly be Schizophrenic. I was just reading a little about Bipolar Disorder and she fits it to a T. I need to confront my mother because she thinks she is going to move cross country to open a restaurant. This would be in a city she's never been too...makes sense. She has pulled my younger brother out of school because she is, "Sick of the school system." She abandoned my sister and I about 12 years ago and I think she is about to do again to my brother. She gets really overwhelmed and runs away from it all. It really goes on and on with the weirdness. Anyway, I want to confront her with this issue and have my brother come stay with me (his father is not in the picture) so that he can be placed back into school and live in a stable environment. Any ideas on how to go about with this would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, this is one factor in my problem: I recently got off the pill (in the middle of the pack). I'm currently 3 weeks away from starting my normal cycle, and I was told to expect an abnormal period getting off the pill.

Now, my problem is this: I've actually had this happen for a long time, but never questioned it.. before, during, and after my period, I get a jelly-like, thick, and 'squishy', discharge that is dark red. Usually it's a small amount, and I blame it on the fact that I was either aroused or sexually active during my period, and the mucous made just gets mixed with blood. I'm sure that's all it is, because it doesn't hurt, and it's the same consistency as normal, just drenched in blood (and it's so icky). But this morning when I woke up, I felt a LOT of blood just waiting there.. you know that feeling, ladies. So I went to sit on the toilet, and a GIANT glob of this stuff fell down.. it worried me, and I don't know if this is normal for others.. please clarify :(

I've been pretty bummed out for awhile, but lately...I'm starting to feel like I'm on the verge of a panic attack. I've never had one, but several times today...I felt like I couldn't breathe. I didn't know if I just couldn't catch my breath or if I forgot to breathe or what...its freaking me out though!! Has this ever happened to anyone else?? How do I make it stop??
