I'm really scared, had a Pap in Dec that came back with ASCUS, and was tested for HPV. It just so turns out I tested possitive for high risk HPV. My doctor is now sending me to a specialist for a coloscapy/bioposy. I am terrified! Is ASCUS cancer, am I going to die?

Wonder if i could get a bit of advice

My knees sometimes hurt after intense exercise so i put ice on them or use Biofreeze. I do knee strenghtening exercises, think the ligaments in my inner thighs are tight, would love to do physio again but can't afford it for now.

Can anyone suggest exercises that you think would help to tone my hips and butt which won't make my knees hurt.

I walk up a flight of 128 steps twice a week,and go to the gym every other day and take the stairs (two at a time) at every opportunity.My diet is good.

I workout on the stepper, my outer hips seem to be getting more toned but my butt is still not toned,do i need to increase resistance or decrease? as i find that either way it works different parts of my lower body but never my butt

i'd would love some advice please

I feel like i'm losing direction and i just don't know what to do anymore. I stopped cutting myself 2 years ago and then today i cut myself. I feel so guilty now for doing it and wish i hadn't!!! i feel like i've thrown 2 years down the drain.

i am also struggling to stay off alcohol. I feel people have something against me, but maybe it's me, i don't know. I have had problems for years after seeing my mum experience domestic violence in my childhood.

I've also had drug addictions which i have overcome. I've got low self esteem and try to think positively but its wearing thin....

All i feel is guilt anger and sadness. Please god i need a break and i feel one day i'm gonna be pushed over the edge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I figure it is. But the way it was done yesterday was rather upsetting now that i think about it more.

I went to the Nuclear heart Center yesterday because my General practioner sent me there because for the last two months I have had chest pain.

During the exam he was very fast with questions. Some were hard to answer. That seemed to upset him he was in a hurryHe was behind schedule I knew... He was listening to my heart from different angles and then asked me if I had a living will. I said no. He marked it down. Then said I want to do some test next week.

It did not dawn on me what he had asked till 8pm last night. So now I am wondering if I have more to fear. There testing for a blood clot, lung cancer, and doing a stress test proceeding a EKG.

My question is is it standard to ask about a Living will? And if so why has my general doctor not asked?

Thanx in advance confused and scared.

I have been on a month long crash diet (heavily restricted calorie diet) to lose weight for an important event coming up. I realize this was not the smartest way to lose weight but I had no other choice and I realize that rebounding from this might cause weight gain when I increase calorie intake. I do exercise regularly. What is the best way to get my body to re-adjust to a higher calorie intake without putting on weight?

okay this question's a bit embarrassing...
I'm not planning on it any time soon, but when you have sex for the first time, do you automatically know what to do? obviously i know what the aim is, but does it just come naturally? I know for girls it hurts, but is it difficult or complicated to actually do it the first time?

P.S.: I know I think about these things too much, but I can't help it, it's the way I am, lol.

Social anxiety - Can I cure it without having to stay on medicaton?

examples:
- Not geting off at the right bus stop-simply because peaple are sitting at the back of the bus. It is easier for me to wait until they leave!
- Very very quiet in a group. It's so extreme that I don't even know how to leave because I'm not sure if they know I'm even there.
- I avoid going out a day time as much as possible. In the evening there are less peaple walking around.
- Ask somebody what the time is on the streets? -No way man!

The prozac helps- but I don't want it anymore. Can I work on my social anxiety without it? I feel very dependent - I am dependent-when I stop it all gets worse.

Is there a cure without needing medication?
