Health - 13 February 2007

I am going to lose the love of my life for reasons other than our relationship. What can I say to change his mind? If I can't change his mind, how do I go on and go to work everyday pretending that I am not falling apart? I can't eat or sleep because of anxiety and I have stomach cramps and a headache. I know that he loves me, but he can't deal with my child and feels that he needs to get away. Help, I'm desperate. I have an appointment with a counselor, but not until Thursday night. How will I make it until then? Valentine's day will be too much to bear tomorrow. Honest, I just want to curl up in a ball and never wake up.

I am wondering this because I have heard that long term use of the pill can sometimes alter the chemicals in your body and cause infertility or sterility. I know that when your on the pill, the hormones in the pill keep you from ovulating so you dont get pregnant. One of my nursing instructors was saying that long term use could cause this to happen indefinitely. I am worried because I have been on the pill for 6 years and I am getting married soon and would like to have children in a few years. Has anyone ever heard of this happening to someone they know that used the pill for a long time? Should I stop taking the pill and use something else?

I smoked on feb 1st and I have to take a urine test next week. I bought Omni just to be sure I'll pass. Has anybody ever used this product? Did you pass? Can it be detected in the test? There are no directions on the bottle so how should I take it?

And please, I don't need any lectures about how I shouldn't be smoking, or that if I didn't smoke in the first place I wouldn't be having this problem. Helpful answers only, please.

I noticed that i have a small white spot on the back of my throat. It's not on my tonsil but behind it. I don't have a sore throat, and I haven't been sick. I know it sounds gross, but I tried to poke at it but it didn't pop. It didn't even hurt. That side of my throat feels wierd but it doesn't hurt. Any ideas?

Please only respond with answers to the questions I ask. I've thought this through.
I have a receding chin. I want to get mentoplasty, and I'm looking for docotors in the RI area. I don't even know where to begin. Do some doctors have a payment plan, or do you need the money all up front?

I was recently diagnosed with being bipolar and I wanted to know what are the risks of taking a mood stabilizer? I researched them and found that most of them make you gain weight. Is that true? What is your experience with taking them? Is it worth the risk? I don't want to get fat because it will make me even more depressed but I do need help.

I am thinking of running away with them but them I will get caught and end up in jail and he will have them all of the time. I can't kill him because then a stanger will end up with my kids. This has been going on a year and I can't continue to be this sad. I go to counseling and I take meds but that is not really helping. Life just sucks. Why continue?

I take 5-htp, St. John's Wort, gingko biloba, acidophilus, a b-complex, and a multivitamin throughout each day, not all at the same time. Is there anything I should be aware of? Harmful effects, interactions, or anything else I should know? Thanks in advance for your help!

...my goal is to lose 20-30 lbs. In my hectic schedule I am only able to go to this class once a week as opposed to twice a week. I'm cutting out junk food and will try to eat more frequently and during the day, before I only ate once or twice a day and mostly at night.

Does Multiple Sclerosis affect your ability to be rational in relationships? We went from meeting, to close fiends, to sexual exploration, to separation, back to friends, living in the same bed (no sex), to wanting to have nothing to do with each other. I don't believe that the disease can cause this. She had bouts of pain that were intense to the point of shutting me out completely. I care for her, don't love her, but this is wierd.

I want to loose 45 lbs in a fastest way possible. My friend suggest me to get a trainer. The problem is my allowance can't support for a long time (e.g 3 months only) but I'm so clueless about fitness and stuffs...what should I do? I need to slim down real quick in 6 months.

Is a trainer (in that short time) can speed up my weight loss?
And because I don't have enough allowance will I need a trainer to maintain the weight if I already get what I want?
Any suggestion how to maintain the weight?

I ate SO well for about 2 months. Then ONE day I went to a birthday party and had a cheeseburger, french fries and a piece of cake. All hell broke loose and I fell back into my crappy eating slump and I can't seem to get back into the habit.
