Health - 31 January 2007

I have naturally large legs (I've been skinny and fat in my lifetime), so I know that they are just naturally that way. I try wearing straight leg jeans and khakis but they look to tight for me but feel fine on my waiste. Does anyone know how I can thin out my legs so they fit in pants that are anything but baggy? I'm in my Junior year in college, and when I graduate I don't want to wear baggy clothes to work. HELP! (I'm a guy, btw).

My fiancee for the past couple of months has been experiencing left testicle pain, it goes and goes and never is constant, he has went to the doctors several times and the doctors don't even know what has been causing it, but he also has vomiting with the pain and he says it is very uncomfortable. If anyone has any advice on what it could be please let us know, thank you

I recently travled to southern india and ate UNBELIEVABLE food , which was made with all kinds of pulses, beans, veggies of all sorts and prepared in all different ways, and fresh squeezed juices and NOBODY SMOKED , NOBODY DRANK, and people drank a yogurt drink called lassi. I have never been feeling so healthy in my whole life. It was great.

I have been reading some of the comments concerning Indian food since I have been on Yahoo answers and I dont know if their information is either ignorant , mis informed, or biased , but INDIAN FOOD IS NOT UNHEALTHY AND FATTENING! I could not believe all the answers I was reading. People saying stuff like rice is fattening. and they all seem to promote things like Weight Watchers Toast instead! I cannot understand it!

I just purchased a random multivitamin because I'm always catching colds and feeling tired. Although I have no clue what each vitamin does, and would like to know. I know about vitamin C, but I would like to know what the following vitamins do: Vitamin A, D, E, Thiamin (B-1), Riboflavin, Niacin, Folic Acid, Iron, Vitamin B-6, B-12, and Pentothenic Acid.

Also, are the above ingredients enough to ensure optimal health or are some additional vitamins/minerals required?

i just had paragard inserted yesterday and it went very well, i experienced light cramps and very light bleeding afterwards now it seem as though my light bleeding has stopped the next day which is today,also my light cramps stopped last night.by me having a relatively easy insertion/experience so far with no pain or anything since yesterday,could this mean that my uterus is taking well to the paragard and that i will have a postive experience with it?

I've been healthy eating (not a stupidly strict diet, just stopped being such a pig!) for about a week now because I had low self esteem cos felt bit wobbly round the edge. Iv'e felt great but I didn't have time for breakfast today so by the time lunch came round I was well hungry and stuffed my face with a massive jacket potato, butter, cheese and tuna and mayo. Now I feel terrible, fat and ugly again. Anyone got some words of wisdom to make me feel better. Please! x

My 4 year old daughter has had asthma problems the last few days and a sinus infection. I took her to the doctor on Monday and he prescribed Zithromax, for the infection, and Prednisone for the Asthma, as well as instructed me to give her one treament a day of Pulmicort on her nebulizer.

I did this Monday evening and all was fine...except the crazyness from the prednisone..she was bouncing off the walls...I kind of expected that....To make a long story short, she wet the bed Monday night, wet her pants Tuesday at school, and then again last night while sleeping....Mind you, she hasnt wet herself in a year...and now that she is on all this medication she has done it 3 times in 2 days. Is this a normal side effect??? Should I ask the Dr. about this, or is it just coincidence or a phase?

I have looked of the side effects and found nothing of the sort...Is this normal?? She bounces off the walls with the prednisone, and wets herself at night????

I usually eat a banana or 2 before I go to the gym (for an aerobics class lasing 45 mins), however, today I forgot to bring any in and I forgot to buy any at lunch time. I won't have much time to go to the shop before the class, is it ok to go on an empty stomach? I last ate at 1pm. If not, whats the best thing to get from a newsagents selling no fruit?
