Health - 29 December 2006

ok. first off im 15, i'm 5*1, and i weigh 117 pounds.
as far as i know my BMI [body mass index is totally fine]

but for some reason i have weird stretch marks on my hips and lower back reaching down to my butt. [oh and some on the back of my left leg just above the knee]

i havent gone through some dramatic weight change so i dont know how i just got them. [literally i just saw them one day.]

oh and sometimes they turn a real dark purple red.

what could this be from and what can i do?

Some may find this amusing but it's serious. :) in a toothy wauy.

I was visiting my folks and yesterday saw my Dad cleaning my grandmother's dentures with my toothbrush ,which he had mistaken for an old replaceable one he thought no one used (it's very retro) Upon confronting him, he apologized and admitted he had been cleaning the dentures for 2 weeks (eww!). Now I am picky with things and really want this toothbrush, is there some way i can clean it with disinfectant solution or something?

or just get a new one? (the same one is hard to find).

I am just intrested in others lifestyles. So if you feel like answering a couple questions that would be awesome!

1. What would you say you eat on average for breakfast, lunch, dinner. How many calories do you think daily (if you have any clue).

2. How do you induldge yourself? Do you like ice cream once in awhile or do you think you induldge yourself to often?

3.what do you do for exercise, how much execise do you get daily.

And if you feel comfortable what is you height and weight....if you dont want to say thats fine you can just leave it out.
Thank you

Ok, I cleaned a friend of mines house a couple of days ago, while I was sweeping a kind of dark hallway and noticed mouse poop in the pile when I was done. I freaked out and started researching mice and their diseases and found Hanta Virus is the number one. I cant find the statistics for my state anywhere...
So I guess my question would be,
DO ALL mice carry this?? The house was in East Texas.
Also wondering do I need to go get tested for this before it gets out of control.. If I indeed have it
thanks!

on and off I get this pinch in the lower right side of my back. When I bend over sometimes I feel thi pinch. But for the most part I'm ok through out the day. I know about 4 years ago I injured my back trying to wrestle my uncle. I also was a auto mechanic and spent a great deal of time bent over the hood of a car. Any advice?
