Health - 19 February 2007

okay so i started taking a birth control pill called "Yasmin" because i was having trouble with my periods... but then i stopped taking yasmin because it was making me sick. About a few days later, i got a period which lasted 6-7 days.
Since then i've had no spotting or anything but i've felt sick like i usually did before i started taking yasmin, i have the normal cervical fluid and tender breasts that women get when they're getting a period. my period will be one day late tomorrow, is it normal for the next period to be late after stopping birth control and is it normal to have a period 2-3 days after NOT taking birth control?
please help! im really confused as when i should expect my period and if this is all normal

If yes, how would that make you feel afterwards?

If not, do you think that makes you better than the people who would?

I've had an eating disorder for over two years. As a HS senior, I was nearly anorexic, but now I am totally opposite of that...I have binge eating disorder. I work out so much to try to lose all the weight I put on from binging, and now that I'm in college it makes life so difficult to deal with. I've gained 20 pounds and my health is really dwindling, along with my self esteem. Is there anyone who has experience with this and can help me via e-mail? I'm really looking for a weight loss buddy who I can keep in touch with for support and encouragement. It would really mean the world to me.

Will taking a bath (10-15mins) after you eat a meal do any (real) kind of damage to you? You know like you’re not supposed to eat and go swimming right after. I know if you eat too much and go swimming right after, you risk throwing up or cramps.
Will anything really happen?

My mom checks my temp by checking wit her hand not a thernometer to see if my forehead is hot. I need a way to make it feel like my forehead is hot.
I will even take a quick how-to on how to make yourself sick overnight just to avoid something.(None of your buisness)

Put it simply I just need a way to make myself sick but not seriously sick just a little fever.

Also please do not answer if you are just going to say u should not be trying to that because i really dont care.
Anyway Please Help

I went to the doctor today with swollen lymp nodes, a headache, and a lump in my throat. My doctor says I have acid reflux disease and she gave me Protonix. I know I do not have acid reflux disease I do not have any of the symptoms. I have never had heartburn and I am only 21. If anyone has any good ideas as to what this could be that would be awesome!! I have been suffering from this for a week. It has been coming and going for the last year.

I have been taking Yaz birth control since July. Before this my periods were 5-7 days with heavy to light bleeding. Now on the pill I have my periods 2 or 3 days and very light bleeding. It usually starts the day before or day of starting a new pack. I have noticed over time my bleeding is getting lighter and lighter. Last night I started my period. There was no blood on the pad in the morning and using tampons today there was only a little blood on the top of the tampon. When I wipe I can't even see blood unless I place the toliet paper in my vaginia. It has never been this light before. I took a pregnancy test just to find some relief and it was negative.

I'm wondering- is this normal or should call my gyno? Anyone have personal experience with this or expertise in the medical field?

I was sick with the flu really bad last week. Now every nite when I go to sleep I am having at lest 1 dream about someone or someplace from my past, most of them seem to be from when I did home health care and the people that I cared for or their families. I am going to the homes and visit, most of these people have passed, or no longer even live in these homes anymore. In a couple of them I know where I am but its not exactly as when I worked there. In 1 case the dream started out around the families home but I was not at the family home, I was outside at a neighbors, I saw a big cat (not domestic) it never appproched me or tried to intimidate me in any way it was just there. I walked a way and then I was in the families home of my ex client. I would like some input. Thank you.

ive always kinda felt like i would die younger...but like im only 12.

and lately i think about it a lot, like a ton really. It might be a car crash, cancer. anything.
But I brought it up in front of my family a while ago, and my two youngest sisters admitted to talking to eachother about feeling like if something bad happened to the family it would be my death.

This really scares me. because like i've heard of people who write letters to there familys about how they "feel" like there going to die soon, and then they do. {die}

So i guess im just asking for your opinoins on this...

[[ i also tried to bring it up to my dad in the car today, and he go all quiet and switched the subject.. it was wierd, lol ]]
