Should I be concerned?
I'm anemic and I've been trying to get rid of that condition by not drinking soda/coffee 2 hours before and after my meal.

I'm pretty skinny. I don't think my high heart rate has anything to do with my weight.

I don't ever work out though, and I looooove sweet (cake, chocolate, etc). Does that play a role in having such a high heart rate.

Is 122 really really high?
What should I do with this?

I have been running in the mornings, and I have been doing very well, but I want to start wearing a backpack when I run soI can get used to running with 40 or more pounds on my back. I don't intend to start at 40 lbs, but my goal is to eventually be able to run proficiently with at least 60 lbs on my back. Ok, my question is: would this be harmful to my body (specifically, the joints) to do so?

I am 5ft2 and almost 200 pounds. I have a hard time losing weight through excersise because I have severe Fibromyalgia. I eat a very good diet of 1,000 calories a day but although I am not gaining I am not losing either. My doctor says he doesnt like to prescribe any weight loss meds to anyone. I do not want to go see another doc because this current one is so good with my other illnesses and it is in my contract that if i see anyone else, he will not see me anymore. What do I do?? Help!

Okay so I've heard different girls explain how hormones affect them before, during and after PMS. For example, I've heard one girl say she gets depressed and another say she is more easily aroused and another say it makes her hungry. I was wondering first off how well women in general keep track of symptoms like these? Also I was wondering if its really that different for everyone? And how do hormonal changes affect you personally?

It's quite large, but I've had it for more than two years. Lately, I notice certain attributes which I don't think were there before: the appearance of two small darker portions on one side, the appearance and disappearance of tiny dark dots that come and go in and around the mole. I've talked to general doctors unofficially about it, and one of them even checked it up close with a flash light; they all told me I have nothing to worry about. Even though, I'm not convinced. Yet I really would like to know if it's the best choice to get a biopsy made, since it's a pretty big mole.

I don't need to lose weight, but I'd like to tone my abs. I did hundreds of crunches in high school, and my stomach looked no different for all my work. I've tried using one of those exercise balls, but it was too complicated and hurt my neck and back. I'd like to get off the floor, if possible. Ideas/personal experience about the best types of exercises or exercise equipment to use, anyone? Thanks so much!!

I got fired from a job over this. This woman who was a supervisor would always try to talk to me when I was busy working on something. I excused myself and continued on what I needed to do. The next thing I know I'm in the office getting fired for using profanity! What the hell is wrong with people these days? I'm getting Unemployment right now because the judge decided in my favor. But its a HUGE pay cut for me! I never said anything like what she said I did!

I'm 14 and haven't started my period yet. I've had clear discharge for awhile. Today I got a lot of mucasy looking discharge, and I was kind of swollen "down there". I'm pretty sure it was a yellowish color. Do I have an infection? What should I do about it?

No, I'm not infected. I'm learning about STDs in Health class, and I don't like to ask questions about that. But is it possible to get herpes anywhere on the body?
