The pain comes and goes, but sometimes I almost can't walk, it hurts so much to lift my foot. My foot does not hurt and neither do my thighs or hips. Sometimes my leg kind of aches around my upper shin. I have jerked my knee before, and it never felt like this. In this case, the pain is not so much in my knee as below it. Does anyone know what this could be or what I should do?

Say his mental retardation makes him really, really slow and McDonalds won't hire him because they like fast service. Besides, after 6 months most of them don't have a job there anymore anyway. Let's say all he knows how to do is dress himself and turn on the TV, and how to flip the channels. He doesn't even know how to use a TV Guide. Where is he supposed to work?

Which anti-depressants have your adolescents been prescribed, and how did they work? Were there any dangerous side-effects?

If you are a healthcare professional and prescribe anti-depressants, what anti-depressants would you recommend, based on the least dangerous side-effects and effectiveness?

Whole-Grain bread or IronKids bread (has all the fiber and 4 times the calcium)? What's so good about whole-grain anyway? I've been it eating for years but don't really know.

Both of my parents, my ex-husband, his mother and I all have it. My brothers both have it and 2 of each of their children have it. I have 2 sets of twins,one set 8 & one set 9. I have raised them on my own since they were2 & 6 mos. w/ out child support so getting alot of professional help is out of the question. Their father didn't contact them for 4 yrs, and just jumped back in. I thought it would be a good idea for the kids to know him but I really think it's making them worse. Maybe in time it will get better. In the meantime the school acts like they can't make it w/out them on adderall or concerta.I understand completely but I hate it so bad for them to be on medication. Remember it is just me to take care of them so what are some other things I could do to help them w/out so much med? We're trying a behavoiral therapist but I've only gotten one child in and it took about 5 mos. to get the appt. Now he's sending us to another type of therapist.

Hey. Well my boyfriend & I of a few years had to suffer the shock of are life [so far], our condom broke. We werent able to acknowledge this fact until of course we pulled out.

This happened at around 9:00-9:30pm. As soon as we realized this I called the local CVS asap. I made sure they had Plan B in stock & went there to get it asap. I took the 1st pill @ 10:40 and I'll be taking the 2nd one at 10:40am tomorrow, since you're supposed to take it 12hrs after the 1st one.

The pill is known to be affective 72hrs after unprotected sex, and the sooner you take the pill the better it will work, 89%[i believe] chance of it working.

Would you say that I'm almost very safe, since I took the 1st pill 1hr after the unsafe sex? Have any females or boyfriends/husband been faced w/ this same matter? I would love to hear what you have to say. Thanks guys.

PS. Please don't judge me. I don't take birth control because of the health risks & it's not my fault the condom broke.

Does anyone know where to buy those Canadian acetiminophen that have codeine in them? I know they are sold over the counter in Canada, and you are allowed to bring back 100 pills per person to the USA. I have chronic pain, from a disease in my back and I find a great deal of relief from them. I am in terrible pain, and I cannot get to Canada to purchase any. Does anyone know where you can buy them online and have them shipped to the states? What are they called, or referred to in Canada, because I have had no luck with my searches so far. Please help!!!
