Is a cholesterol level of 160 for teens abnormally small compared to 170 or is this very close. I didn't know if a difference of 10 was big or not.

What if somebody bought the fake Vampire blood you buy for Halloween and somehow got it in their veins before going to a blood drive. Next thing you know, the collection vile is filled with fake Vampire blood and the recipient of this fake blood can be in great danger. What precautions to blood drives take to assure this does not happen?

Everything my shrink tells me is crap. None of it makes any sense. I asked her what manic depression is. She said, "You mean maniac depression?" I swear she's the dumbest lady on the planet. She thinks a nervous breakdown involves a car. She thinks bi-polar is a bear that likes both genders. Once she diagnosed a strep throat patient of having a depressed tongue. I'd bet her a hundred pounds she doesn't know what a compulsive gambler is. The lady has no clue. All she can do is accuse me of some stupid mental disorder that I don't even have

So do I sound mad to you ?????

I was just wanting an opinion....I am TTC and expect my period on Feb. 25 or 26. I was on the pill up until last month (Alesse 28day, which is one of the lowest doses). The first day of my last period was Jan. 30/07. I did get some spotting afterwards, on Feb. 5,6,10,and 21st. The spotting was only noticed once on each day mentioned when I wiped. The first three days the spotting was pink and the last day it happened it was a brownish color. Also I had some cramping for about two weeks, like AF was going to come, at the beginning of Feb. My husband and I have had intercourse on and around those days (lets say every second day)

My questions are....are these symptoms typical after discontinuing oral contreceptives? Or should I test right away for pregnancy? Or just wait to see if I will miss a period?

Oh yeah, this would be baby #3 for me.

I am really excited!!

Thanks for your input! :-)

Okay,I'm 21 years old.My sister's 30 & my brother's 28.Over the past 10 years my parents have been dealing with every thing you can think of with my brother & sister because they act irresponsibly.My brother's been in prison for about 2 years now.He's set to get out in a year,so my mom's worrying about trying to help him.She's been worrying really bad about my sister because of how she lives & treats her 3 kids.Yesterday my sister tried to overdose on pills & she's now been committed to a mental hospital by a physician.My sister's 3 children (ages 7,3, & 2 months) were just left at the house by themselves through this whole ordeal.A sheriff took my sister to the mental hospital which is about 2 hours away & just neglected to find anywhere for my nieces & nephew to go.Anyway,my mom has 2 of the children for an unknown amount of time.She seems really stressed,like she's about to have a breakdown.I work over 45 hours a week so I can't keep the kids all the time.How else could I help her?

I am 13 years old and i am very skinny. i have never had and never will have an eating disorder, but i feel very self-conscious about my appearence. I am often teased about being skinny, and even my friends tell me things like "you're abnormally skinny" and make references to me such as "toothpick" and "stick".

I eat and exercise normally but I don't gain weight. the way i look stings a lot when i am reminded of it. Clothes never really fit me right. My friends, being normal schoolgirls, of course, constantly complain about the way they look. they always tell me how they are "too fat" or that they think they are ugly. when i tell them i am self-conscious about being very skinny, they dissmiss it. Apparently, it is more troubling to think you are fat.

I want everyone to know that people who are very skinny face the same self-doubt as those who think they are fat. Think about that the next time you make assumptions or a joke about the girl who is skinnier and bonier than most.

My son is 15. He is very tired most of the time. I was like this in my teen years too. He is taking vitamins and gets to sleep early at night, yet he still is very tired. Sometimes he even falls asleep in school. Would it be ok to give him caffiene pills? Would this harm him in some way? Any other suggestions to help him? Thank you.

What did you use if for and what results did you have, good or bad?

I'm going through "the change" and have been reading up on it. I just started using Pro-Gest, but really haven't notice anything. I understand it could take a few months.

Just wondering about anyone else's personal experiences.

My husband has a genetic disorder where he does not have any enamel on his teeth.

His grandmother has this
His mother and aunt have this
His brother his this
His male and female cousin do not have this.

Will our children have it or is it only passed down through females?

Thank you!

It does not look like a normal period it is lighter then normal, I have not used condoms or birth control since the marriage. (3 months ago) so is it possible to have a light period while being pregnant. I have also had tenderness of the breast, darkend nipple area, nasea, bad mood swings I don't know if this is just my period or if it is cause i could be pregnant. Like I said my period was 5 weeks late. is that normal. I have not been stressed out until this morning when I started to bleed.
