If I need to see a doctor for breast health (I have a milk blister from nursing my 9 month old daughter that isn't going away and is causing a blocked duct) should I go to my primary care physician or my OBGYN?

Normally I take my birth control pill at 7 every morning before school. However I've started to not have to get up early on teh weekends anymore and I don't wake up til about 11 and i take my birth control pill then.

is this not effective?
Does this mean I have to wake up at 7 am on weekends?
Can I change my time to 11pm with the next cycle of birth control if it's absolutely necessary?


Keep in mind I don't use my birth control for birth control, but for regulating my period and helping out with my previous skin problems.

Basically, I was about 165 lbs. ( 6' 2" ) when I started working out, now after a
couple months I'm about 180 lbs., but I still have a fairly "uncut" ab region and some general "looseness" about me still.

I want to shoot for about 190, 195 lbs. and then trim down the fat from there, as most experts would recommend.

My question is, If I were to run about 6 miles a day (-800 calories or so) and burn off another 200 cals or so doing other stuff, would It be possible to bulk up muscle (With a 3000 cal. diet with protein, fiber, good carbs) while having the exercise actually burn the fat on me?

I don't know what my body-fat index is, I think it's about 7 or 8% right now.

Ok so if someone ate like 6 peanut clusters and was alergic to them, could they die? And how long afterwards?

three years ago the doctors classified me as bypolar. ever since i have been trying to find a way to live my life without letting my disorder get the best of me. its not easy. it hurts alot and i find myself running from people as if im protecting them from getting hurt as well.
i recently met a man that i connect with by talking and getting to know each other. after many months we finally met. we agreed that we had never felt so comfortable with anyone. it was amazing. then he went back home to texas (im in ny) and im confused.
he was hurt before and doesnt enjoy drama. im a walking drama queen. i try not to be because i dont like it but unfortunetly i havent figured out how to stop. anytime i act out he ignores me. honestly i would ignore me. but the more he ignores me the more i act out.
i dont know what to do. usually the only reason i act like a drama queen is because i dont feel loved. most of that is being bypolar. am i unlovable because im bypolar/ a drama queen?

About 3 hours ago, I smashed my middle right hand finger on my car door. Immediately rather than bleed, the bottom of my nail is bluish black. The tip of my finger feels really numb and its throbbing.. I don't think it's broken because I can move it. Bending it and Grasping stuff though is painful. I looked already and found out that the color is probably blood and I read about how to relieve the blood. My question is for advice--from personal experience. What I should do? My finger is my dominant hand. I've tried ice, but i almost have to force that because that just makes it feel worse

Ok this is a long story but here goes.... Till i was 19 i was pretty much just a normal person like everyone else, i had eating disorders but my weight was kept steady and i was slim. I had suffered on and off with depression since i was 15 and was on medication, its a while ago now (i'm 28) but i think i was on prozac then. When i got to 19 i came out of a bad relationship and got severely depressed, and in my warped way of thinking decided i didn't want to go out anymore (out the house) so i figured if i put on weight my mum wouldn't force me to go out, i know that sounds stupid but i was very depressed and i think slightly off my head. So i ate and ate till i got to 18 stone, as a person who always had trouble maintaining my weight before that and was obsessed with weight and looks, this was a major deal to me there is no way i would step foot outside the house, to be humiliated, taunted and laughed at. So i stayed inside in my own little world in the safe coccooon of my house for 3
