Health - 11 January 2007

My husband is in advanced stage of terminal cancer and has developed an extremely sweet tooth and after 40 years without sweets this has come as a complete surprise.

Does anybody else have this same reaction - either to the disease or the medication - and is there is a reason why.

Lately I have been eating one main meal a day (usually at noon) and eating small snacks, such as peanuts or fresh fruit whenever I get hungry. I have also been averaging 4 to 5 bottles of water a day. I am in desperate need to lose weight quickly for a friends wedding, but I dont want to be unhealthy about it and hurt my body in the process.

I gained 3 pounds today, I went on the scale in the morning and it said 79 pounds, then at 4:20 I went on the scale and it said 82 pounds. Is this possible?
I didn't even eat a lot today, all I ate was a veggie burger, and then all I drank was a bottle of water and a bottle of diet pepsi.

I was wondering do some guys get headaches after having sex? I get these headaches just instantly after having sex and they last for about an hour. Is there any thing wrong with me?

(...guess not, right...)

how can somebody "do" sth. like that to someone; I mean, I never cry over anyone in my life, just this person. It never happened before and it wont happen again.

Do you think that something bad is going on??? I just got done getting oral sex from my girlfriend, after she had finished me, I noticed that my penis was turning blue, now it's black. Should I go to the ER??? After all, I only have one penis.

Her teeth are a little bit crooked - but it's not the first thing you notice about her - if at all. The dentists say there *could* be problems down the road if we don't put braces on her. I don't think I can get an honest answer from the dentists. They've been trying to get her into the orthodontist office since she was eight years old. She takes good care of her teeth - and has never had a cavity.

Most of her friends have braces. It seems like it's just "what you do" here in America. Does she really need them or has our society gone glamour crazy? I never had them. My teeth are quite straight but I have a noticeable overbite. I think it gives me character.

The insurance pays a minimal amount. They'll run about 10K. What do you think - are they really necessary? Do we spring for them (it would be a hardship - 10K is 3 times more than what I spent on my car) or do we just hope people will like her even though her teeth are not perfectly straight?

I hate the dentist - I play hockey, rugby and football so I don't mind getting smacked, punch or kicked but for some reason I get anxiety even thinking about going to the dentist. That drill sends shivers down my spine!
Now I need a root canal then crown - people I tell always go "ohhh, better you then me!"
Is it really as bad as it sounds and as painful as everyone says it is?

recently because of the emotions ive been having ive ended up getting angry at stupid things. earlier today i had an arguemen with my mum and i ended up telling her to **** off, and i DO swear way too much. recently my dad has been telling me to stop swearing especially at my mum, and i am trying but its hard to control some of the things i say. just before my dad came in and closed the door, then he threatened me and told me that if i ever swore again hed knock my tooth out.he held me by the neck when he said it, and i had this urge to hit him in the face as hard as i could.i hate having these uncontrollable emotions.my dad is really awesome so i dont want to ever have to do anything against him,i know this has nothing to do with bipolar but i just want to know if there is any way i can stop swearing without a swear jar.

I'm 16 years old and have never had sex. I'm also not on birth control. My period's have always been every five weeks, but the last few times have been irregular. I had my period then 3 weeks later I got it again. The next time was 5 weeks later and now I have it again after about 3 weeks. This time I noticed it is also thicker. My nipples have also been very tender. What's going on??

I'm about to start taking the pill. Are there any side effects I need to watch out for? I'm also starting school and an internship the same week, so I just want to be prepared.

If you had any side effects, how long did they last? Were they really debilitating?

Thanks!

If u check out my other questions u will see that I have gotten myself in some serious trouble messing with a guy who has been out of jail for a year after serving a 6 year sentence. I let things get to outta control and we started making out and he gave me oral sex and asked could he just rub his penis against my vagina. I let him and then asked him to stop after coming back to my senses.
Immediately afterwards I got a sore-throat, I mean like 20 mins later. What could that have been about?
