If I was ultra rich I still wouldn't be able to afford ..

1. To eat as much ice-cream as I want without getting sick (I would like to stay thin)
2. To drink as much Coke without getting nauseous (I completely stopped drinking soda-pop)
3. To stay up late without being a tired the next day (I am a night owl)
4. To watch TV all day without getting stiff and lazy
5. Eat all the chocolate in the world without compromising my health
6. Not to exercise and expect to feel vital.
7. Stay mad at my mother when she says stuff I don't like to hear.

........

WHAT about you?

Hello, i have had a niggly pain in my ear lobe and happens every few minutes and goes behind the lobeand lasts a few seconds. It has been doing this for 3 days now and am wondering if this has happened to anyone else. It is a bit more uncomfortable now and will go to get it checked tomorrow but wanted to know if anyone else has had it?

Thanks

I've had hyperhidrosis since highschool, but in the year and a half I spent in Florida afterwards, I never had a problem with excessive underarm sweat; The only time I sweated a lot was when it was so hot that everyone was sweating all over. But a little bit after moving back up to a temperate climate in North Carolina my excessive sweating has come back.

The only difference I can remember, aside from it being hotter down there (which you think would have made a negative difference), is that, in Florida there seemed to be a lot of sulpher in the water there. The 1st time I took a shower I smelled a sort of rotten egg smell, and I had to chill it to make it palletable enough to drink. I was wondering if this could be the factor that kept me from sweating, and if so, if there's a way to topically apply and/or ingest small amounts of sulpher.

Oh, and for the record, my hyperhidrosis is so bad that Certain-Dri doesn't help, and I'm about to get a perscription of Drysol.

I'm trying to reach the fullest potential in finding a job. -Finished university and surely should be doing something at that level?
Or not- Do I want to sit behind the computer all day and go to conferences where they discuss how to optimalise the coffee machine? - Don't get me wrong there are " uni-" jobs important for health care or environment- but this may not me for me.
Let me be happy. Where can I find happiness? Is it really important to find a jobs that constantly triggers my mind and brings stress?

Can wanting to much make you unhappy?

I have kind of red blotchy skin. Some of which is old acne scars although not the deep pock type ones, just red spots where acne had once been. What is the best way to even my skin tone and get rid of some of these scars? Which is better microdermabrasion or an acid peel? or something different?

I shower daily, use antibacterial soap, use a great antipersperant (the problem isn't sweating, it's the smell) and have tried many deodorants. Still, I smell.


My social life has been ruined by this, because c'mon, who wants to be around someone who smells. Plus, since I know I smell, I don't have the self-confidence to approach people and show them how funny/nice/interesting I really am.

I TIRED of people walking into a room and saying "it smells disgusting in here."

Is there any advice you can give on possibly a pill I could take to solve this awful problem. By the way, I'm a 16 year old GUY, and am too embarrased to talk to my parents about this (I don't have that type of relationship with them, so that's out of the question)...so I can't go to the doctor.

I took cipro for three days to get rid of a UTI. Although it is not completely gone, it is much better. A few days ago, I developed lower back pain. It's more annoying than anything else. Should I worry? I know that UTI's can often lead to a kindey infection, and since the cipro didn't clear it up completely, I'm not sure what this means.

I have had severe constipation for many years (a motility problem) as well. I also have been told I have an undiagnosed auto-immune disorder (Lupus, MS, etc.). I have heard of a condition called GAVE or Watermelon Stomach and suspect it sometimes. It doesn't matter what I eat and it happens without fail if I eat more than a few bites. It is uncontrollable and seems to creep over me right after I get chilled. I call it brain fog. When I wake up from this I feel awful and sick to my stomach. I've tested my blood sugar on a home meter at the onset of the "fog" and it's fine. Anyone else experience this? It sure is life-altering. Can't eat until the kids are in bed and if I just don't eat I end up with blood pressure so low I start to pass out. Help?!

So recently I found a lump, in my neck under my right jaw. I had 2 root canals back in those teeth, and it kind of feels like the lump and pain may be coming from that. But that was over 3 years ago. I do know that every time I get an allergy attack(which get really bad) those back teeth start to hurt bad. Pressure maybe from all the sneezing?

So its only been a week that I noticed this small lump, it hurts and seems to be getting larger, my lymph node is enlarged also. My husbands kind of scared, but we cant get me on his insurance until MAy when open sign up starts. So im at an impass. Any ideas? No I cant get Medi-Cal because my husband makes too much money. Go figure. Also his insurance wont cover pre-existing conditions!
