I am on a 15K training program. Last Sat. I was required to run 6 miles. My legs are still just a little sore today. I am required to run 3 miles today, and again Thursday. On Sat. I am participating in a 5K. Should I just run (3 miles is very easy for me) or lay off of it for another day?

I ordered from this site and don't know if it's real. I actually want it for my asthma which is really bad and I don't want to take the Prednisone steriod anymore, it makes you gain weight. The clen I ordered is in the blister pack and the foil is marked but the pills are not. I wanted to know if anyone tried from the giogen site before and if they think it's real.

Why is it that people complain that they know they do not get enough exercise and that they need to lose weight, but they refuse to walk up the escalator?

I'm doing a study of scars.

I googled imaged it and all that came up were nasty blob like scars.

I'm looking for big scars as a result of being cut by blades or from falling.

Can you tell me about the different types of scars and how they are formed.

I'm looking particularly for battle scars and body formations as a result of travel like calisces or nasty things -I want to know how they are formed and how to get rid of them or how to prevent them.

Please link me to sites or images.
scars on the torso back face or shoulders in particular please.
particularly ones like these

i went to surgeon and lump in armpit was biopsied...it was thankfully benign...but the surgeon ordered a mammogram and ultrasound of the breast on the affected side...if you read my previous questions or have not I do nurse and my baby really only nurses on the side the lump was found on....so had lump in armpit on side baby nurses lump was benign...so my question to everyone is what do you think she is still looking for? I thought after the biopsy I would be free and clear? Should I still worry? Thank you

After trying for some time to get pregnant, I thought I finally was. I took a pregnancy test on day 28 of my cycle it was positive (a digital "pregnant" reading). Three days later, I took another test with the same outcome "pregnant". I had a few symptoms of pregnancy such as frequent urination, fatigue, etc. On day 34 of my cycle, I started spotting and cramping. On day 35, I had bleeding, cramping, and a "clumpy" discharge. I went to have a blood test and my doctor came back and told me I was never pregnant. I found out that my Hcg level was 2. So, my question is whether a person can have two false positive home tests (that are taken 3 days apart)? As well, isnt a small level of Hcg an indicator that I could have been pregnant at one during this cycle? I can accept that the pregnancy didn't take (although I am very disappointed and sad). I can't fathom the idea that I was never pregnant, even for a short while.
Please help. :/

Tried yahooing googling a site that can track my weightt and workouts. Too lazy to come up with an excel spreadsheet. Like entering your weight everyday and the type of exercises you did on that day. Would be cool to see charts but just want something to track my progress. Thanks.

health insurance does? You have to pay so much out of pocket for dental work, it's terrible. What's the reason?

This is very disconcerting because the BMI charts say I'm overweight but I don't feel or look it. I'm 5'2 and weigh 140 pounds. Usually you would think that was fat but I've always carried my weight very well. I look about 10 lighter than I actually am. I don't have a lot of extra muscle, just the regular amount. My fingers barely touch when I measure my wrist if I squeeze so I might be large framed, maybe medium.

Does anyone know how to find out if I'm at a healthy weight without using the BMI charts? Those just don't seem accurate to me.

My sister just got lice and I'm paranoid about getting them too. I straighten my hair everyday. Do you think the intense heat from the straightener kills lice, or at least prevents them from wanting to be in my hair?

Do you know any other ways I can avoid getting lice from my sister?

Serious answers appreciated. Thanks!

I am loosing someone to ITP..Not ITP exactly but my little cousin was diagnosed with ITP at 3 years old, but he's been getting really sick on and off for about 5 years now. My cousin is 12 years old and he is now in the hospital in PICU and he has been declared brain dead. The doctors say that the medicine that he was taking to keep his blood level stable caused him to get an infection in his brain, what they think is meningitis. I dont understand how this can happen. and me and my cousins are finding it so hard to cope with this. Has anyone ever lost someone to this? How did you cope and just learn to move on. He hasnt died yet because hes still on a repirator. He cant breath on his own and i know the parents are thinking about pulling the plug. How can this be? This is the hardest thing ive ever been through. If you have information on support groups please send em. I dont want to talk someone but i feel like im cryin out for help. I dont know wat to do n e more.

For around 3-4 months i have been getting this thing where i start to wee but towards the end of the wee i seem to 'tighten' and can't let anymore out even though i know there is more in there.

5 mins later i need to go again.....and again....this is extremely annoying especially when i have to keep getting out of bed again to go....or waking up with a bursting bladder as there is so much trapped in there!

It also seems like it stings like cystitis sometimes, but had a urine test 2 months ago and nothing showed up?

This is driving me mad!!!
