He ocassionaly faints at the sight of blood, no joke, and he's a tough guy. He just gets all hot and passes out. It's always been real blood, or real surgery on TV before. Tonight, however, we were watching Grey's Anatomy and he went out during the triage scene with the squirting blood outta the leg scene. But he didn't just faint, he seized up and his eyes were open and his pupils were HUGE. He just kept on, arching his back with his hands all balled up. Scared the crap out of me. Does anyone know anything about this? I'm not trying to make a big deal out of it, but it was pretty dramatic. I understand he would have snapped out of it faster if he hit the floor, to line his heart up with his feet, but he was sitting in a chair so it felt like it lasted for a minute at least. I know fainting at the sight of blood is normal (sort of). Should I make him go to the doctor, or can this fall under the term "fainting"?

My mother told me once that my father couldn't crack my back because I was sick with a bad cough. Is this true or just folklore?

I'm a 26 year old female with no other medical problems. For 2 days, I've been experiencing itching and an overall irritated feeling "down there". I also feel like the outside is swollen and inflammed, and when I look at the inside with a mirror, it appears blood red!! I haven't had any discharge but noticed a slight strange odor. I'm not worried about STD's as I've been monogamous for 6 years with the same person. I'm very worried, especially about the swelling. I have a dr's appt, but it isn't until next Wednesday.

Has anyone ever experienced anything similar, or know what might be causing these symptoms?? Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

i consume caffeine on a fairly regular basis, and i know the effects of caffeine and how it speeds up your system, which makes me assume it causes weight loss rather than weight gain.

but is that the correct assumption? or will I gain weight solely by consuming caffeine?

I'm currently sick and don't know how it happened. All I could think of is stress because I'm planning a really big 21st bday and work is probably a factor as well. Plus school on top of it all.

I might be draining myself out, but do you think stress is the factor?

I've heard that there are a lot of advances in IUDs, I haven't had any kids yet but I want to not be on birth control anymore. I am tired of the side effects and have tried several brands without any luck. Is there anyone out there who is or has been on an IUD prior to having children? I'm open to any comments or suggestions. Thanks!

Can these be used to treat ectopic dermatitis? Is there such word as ectopic dermatitis? Can fluocinonide be used to treat white discolorations around the nipple of my 4 months old baby? What is the cause of these white discolorations? Are there any possible bad effects in using these drugs to treat my baby's skin problem? I am asking these questions because i am not satisfied with the work of the dermatologist that we consulted. When she saw our baby's white discolorations around his nipple, she concluded that it is ectopic dermatitis without touching the infected area or even giving a close glance at it, then she prescripted these fluocinonide/fucidin cream repacked in a white plastic container w/ green cover labelled with fucidin only, w/o exp. date and a soap labeled with derma's name only and a physiogel lotion. The soap caused red spots over my son’s face so i used it only once. We've been using the fucidin cream for five days but i can't see any changes. Please give me your opinion about this. Thank you so much.

Recently, I heard a news report that some state legislators are trying to pass bills that would allow pharmacist to refuse to sell birth control for religious or ethical reasons. Religiously devout people said that the pills prevent conception from taking place and it is a bad thing because couples should always be open to the possibility of conception. IIt is a stupid idea b/c you have to ban other things that prevent conception like condoms, sponges and diaphragms and tubal ligations and vasectomies. What about infertile couples? Should we ban them from marriage because they cannot have children? Let's just say that they pass a birth control ban in a state and women can not use any type of artificial birth control. Are women going to be sucessful with more natural ways to prevent or start pregnancies like the rhythm method.
Besides procreation, sex is to unite the couples souls and for hem to become one body. Certain methods work better for some people. What do you girls think?

I am very self conscious about my area and am obsessive about keeping it clean. I have always had sex with condoms in the past and I know that with a husband I shouldn't care about this but somehow it bothers me. Does the sperm leak out of you afterwards and for how long? Does it leave a smell? The whole idea sounds discusting!
