Because I keep reading about how the Estrogen promotes blood coagulation and there have been cases of otherwise healthy young adults collapsing from blood clots or strokes due to being on birth control. So I am scared to go on it even though the chances are like 1 in 100,000 or something like that. So just wondering what to do.

Whenever I speak in front of a class my voice trembles like crazy and my mouth gets really dry and my throat tightens up so I can barely speak. Even if I'm well prepared and all that this still happens. Help?

I have an infection under a tooth I had a root canal on about 15 years ago. Dentist is sending me to an endodontist to see about getting a retreat root canal - meaning a root canal on a tooth that already had a root canal done to it.

Anyone have this done? I've done some research on the internet and doesn't look fun :) Your advice and/or suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

In 2002 my husband died in 2004 I found it necessary to quit my job to care for my daughter. Since then I have not been able to find health care insurance for my daughter and myself. The lack of healthcare is causing her health to deteriorate. It has caused me to rent my house out in order to pay mortgage then the renters didn't pay so now its being autioned off and in foreclosure. As far as I know I have tried everything.

I keep hearing about it in the past week. I know it's beneficial. Head and Shoulders has zinc in it to help get rid of dandruff. If regularly using zinc on sun-damaged skin, will it help a lot?

Also, what is the benefit of zinc oxide ointment? Is it just as beneficial? Would taking a zinc tablet once or twice a day be better than applying ointment?

I am 27 and cannot leave town without having a panic attack and backing out. I am afraid of going crazy in the car and this prevents me from living a life I want to live. My fiances family lives out of town so I have only been out there once. I am depressed sometimes about this and have lived like this for 3 years now. I cant afford therapy is there options out there for anything I can get free or cheap? My doc has me on paxil and gave me Klonopin but I am afraid to take the klonopin because I dont know what it will do? please give me advice?

we met at a party and our first date was wine, board games, movies, and you know what at his place. we've never gone out anywhere and he always wants me to come to his place, never to mine. i dont complain b/c it's convenient for us both, and i always come over late and leave early in the morning. we have great chemistry and always seems to satisfy each other, plus we dont even mind cuddling, talking, and watching tv afterwards. however, his first child was born a couple of years ago and i didnt find out about it until he was almost a year old when i began noticing baby stuff around his place. not sure why it wasnt there sooner but he's a handsome man with a degree, job, money, etc. and he'll be 32 at the end of the year, but he's still single. i never see signs of another woman living with him and his phone never rings when i come over, but im sure im not the only one...maybe? he even takes care of his child and spends time with him, but do you think he'll ever settle down with me?
