Health - 20 February 2007

Ok, I first started running this past June to lose weight and I have been running 6 days a week since. But this past holiday break, I didn't for two weeks since I was just enjoying the break. And when I went back to running, my knee started hurting everytime I bent it. I was convinvced it was my ratty old shoes so I changed them and got a new pair. They are fine but when I went back to run again two weeks ago, my left knee started hurting again. So I gave it some time to relax and heal..and I started again today...same thing! During when I'm runnning is fine, but it's AFTER I feel the ache/pain around the sides of my knee cap and possibly under..I cant tell. it frustrates me since running is my favorite source of excercise and if I can't do it ..it's going to be hard finding another type of excercise since I'm picky. So I'm asking you guys, is there a type of ointment/medicine I should put over it? Something like Icy Hot or some sort?

I have no one to help me shave it, and that will make it come back even worse. Waxing is too painful, and laser hair removal too expensive. Any ideas?

For the past few days I have had blood in my stools and when I wipe (not trying to be gross). It hurts when I poop and it makes my butt burn and sometimes it feels like I still have to poop when I think I'm done. I am 24 yrs old and healthy. I recently had a sinus infection so I don't know if that would cause that? Also my husband and I are trying to get pregnant. What could be the cause of blood in stools and what could I do to stop the bleeding in my bowels along with the pain?

I read somewhere that the mineral Selenium can boost your immune system. What exactly is it, and where do you get it? Is it safe? Thanks!

I seem to feel anxious most of the time. As soon as I wake up I start to think about what there is to worry about that day. Come the evening I start to worry about what there is to do the next day. Sometimes even simple things I need to do around the house get me in a stew. Can I unlearn this behaviour?

How can I feel more complete? How to fill the empty hole inside?
I'm 53. I am always seeking God's help. I am sure that He is tired of hearing that over and over again. I pray inside myself and wait for an answer. Is there another way? I tried suicide 10 years ago. I don't want to die anymore. At least not that way. I want to go naturally now. I am basically happy most always but have an inner gnawing to contact God in a humble way. Thank You.

okay well i woke up this morning and my stomach felt like it was hungry, then it hurt really bad. So i ate a couple froot loops and some orange juice, went up stairs to get ready through that up. My mom gave me crackers to eat and some water, when i got to school I threw that up. At lunch I tried some applesauce, yogurt covered raisins, chips and a juice box. Went to the nurse and threw that up. In class later, i threw up again.

Then went to my next class, which was gym, and i could bearly strech or anything, so I went to the nurse, called my mom so she could come get me. Waited about 20 minutes, which i was lying down, then on the way home i threw up again. Got home, tried some sprite because we dont have ginger ale, then a couple minutes ago, I threw that up.

is this a stomach virus or something thats going around. 8 people went home before me today. I dont know what to eat, i am really hungry, because im gonna throw it up and i dont want to.

HELP

I noticed when I eat things like rice, pasta, etc, my stomach continues to swell up and my pants get tight - for several hours after eating. It's like a balloon that just slowly keeps blowing up. Why is that?
