I am never late for work. I don't drink on the job. I have worked from ground up with this same company for 20 plus years and now am in upper management. Yes, I drink to relax and have fun and do drink everyday to some extent. I know when to quit. But, some still would call me an alcoholic. As long as I can function (WHICH I HAVE FOR 25 YEARS OF DRINKING) then I dont see a big deal about it. Would you consider me an alcoholic?

When i first put them in theyre fine. Then later in the day while im at school they start to hurt. Then i take them out and i can hardley see the board. I have the disposable ones where i throw them away after about 2 months. Whenever i first open a new contact lense it feels fine for the whole day. but then after a week or 2 they start to hurt in the middle of school. And i dont want to wear my glasses cause then i look retarded in them. Does anyone know whats wrong or how to fix it? thanks!!

Juice fasting is suppose to be the greatest way to rid yourself of impurities and toxins. In 14 days you are suppose to loose 20 pounds and loose all cravings. Has anyone ever done this? Tips? Advice? Steps?

i think i have a sinus infection but today while in the shower i was doing what we call here a farmers blow that where u hold one nostril down and blow out the other one. a big chunk flew out but it wasn't like most mucus i have seen. it was harder than normal but not hard as a rock it felt like i had a piece of squid in my hand and it it wasn't bloody all except a Lil piece on it. my nose did bleed for a few seconds after but then started running which it hasn't done at all up until now. is this norm and has any body else had this happen before?

Okay, so i'm looking for a type of diet/exercise program that will help me lose some weight. Pretty fast. But more importantly i'm looking for something that will get me healthy. I'm generally on the go, so something that doesn't require me to make my own meals and I can't spend hours upon hours in the gym. I'm willing to take vitamins or things of that sort. Please help!

There must be some "Board" where malpractice can be reported to. This dr. paid no attention to my needs, she just glanced at my rash and told me it was atopic dermatitis and to change my soaps...prescribed me some topical ointment and sent me over to her "in-house" vitamin person who had a product line available immediately. I personally think she was more interested in selling her products than caring about the rash. PS...went for a 2nd opinion and was diagnosed with dermatomyositis which can be terminal if related to a cancer (of which I am...and the 1st derm...knew this)

I've had acne since teens, am 23 now. It's ranged from light to severe, but I've never been acne free. Recently went to my family doctor when I was sick, as a side note he prescribed Tetracycline to help with the acne. After reading the effects, I'm not interested in taking it long term. However, I only have an issue with facial acne, not anywhere else. Over the last year I've cut back on makeup more and more, now only use concealer and Physician's Formula talc-free face powder. Could the makeup be the issue? I never go to bed with it on, wash my face every night, twice a day apply benzoyl peroxide cream, I drink lots of water and eat lots of fruits/veggies/fiber. I DON'T GET IT! It feels like I'm doing everything I can with no results. I don't want to stop wearing makeup yet--I'll feel like a troll--but do you think it would help that much? Does anyone have any tips/tricks/ideas?

I was doing a front flip and landed in the tuck position (a ball) my left knee went pop (same pop sound if i squat real fast, like cracking knuclkes) but a bit louder.

What hurts:

When i try to bend my knee back, its a sharp pain coming from the middle, back of the knee. If I swing my leg in a forward motion, the outside of the knee hurts.

Any suggestions? I will be getting an MRI soon...

I've had my period for 4 years now. So this seems odd to me to happen now. I was supposed to get my period about a week ago, i was having these weird cramps too. They weren't really cramps but more like a pinching/stinging sensation in my ovaries or something. This happened for like two days and then stopped... but my period never came!
and then about a week later i wake up one morning and i got my period , but alsoi had this most unbelivable pain ive never expieranced before in my life. My lower abdomen and lower back were just in so much pain. i couldn't stand up straight and even lying down was uncomfortable... eventually like three hours later the pain went away and now my period is completely normal. and i just have normal cramps now.

just as a side note...i started taking birth control back in october but i recenetly stopped in january.. if this helps at all with figuring out the mystery! =)

The doc pressed a few points on his body and said nothing wrong. He was in with him for 1 minute. Who do you call to complain and hopefully get his $40.00 copay back? Any ideas?
