Health - 8 January 2007

I am 24 years old. I recently have felt a tightness in my left bicep and the left side of my chest. I went to the doctor because I thought I had an irregular heartbeat but they did an EKG that turned out normal. What could cause this tightness in my left bicep and the left side of my chest? It's been going on for about a month now. It doesn't hurt me, but I'm definitely having some discomfort. Does anyone have any idea what this may be?

I know aspartam, like many chemicals, is not good for the body, but just how bad is it? Some claims that it causes cancer, tumors and various neurological problems..
Others say it's unhealthy, but not worse than ex sugar..
Anyone know where to find facts?

i dont know if i want to change schools. sometimes i feel that i really want to leave, othertimes i am happy. i think its just this year but im not sure. i think there is too much social pressure and i try to talk to my parents about it but they wont really listen. they dont want me to change schools and are convinced that this is just a phrase but i am not so sure and get angry with them for not understanding.
i have decided to stick one more year and see but i think i do want to move though i am not sure if i am truly unhappy.

what should i do?

I recently went to the dentist because my filling came out of my upper wisdom tooth and started to rub on my cheek causing a painful blister in the back of my mouth. He said that this can cause mouth cancer if not treated. He suggested that I get my wisdow teeth pulled out but I dont feel any pain from them. Is he just trying to make money or being serious?

Hi! Im 5'5 and weigh in at 130 lbs. I would like to get back down to my normal weight of 110 lbs (baby 6 months ago and the last 20 lbs are stubborn!)... Im not breastfeeding so I have no restrictions. My questions is.... how many calories should I have on a daily basis to loes weight and... how long should I run on the tread mill to loes weight? I have been running about 3 times a week for 1 mile on my treadmill I believe the speed to be 5.0...
Can someone help me out by just letting me know the calorie intake I should have... and the workout?

Thanks!!

I got a new job and switched Health insurance. A few weeks into my new job I had an appendectomy, and the Health insurance company is stating I "maxed out" for the year, which leaves me with a $4900 bill. Is there any why I can keep from paying the excess amount?
