My 5 yr. old (indentical twin) son has been complaing of leg pains lately. He went to the doctor and had a blood test done. At this time he was just completing a script for ammoxicillan for strep throat. The blood test came back abnormal and the doctor told us that it could possibly be Lupus (talk about sending us into a panic!). He had another test done because they thought it was abnormal due to the antibiotics. The blood test now came back abnormal again. His white blood cell count is low (according to the doctor) 4.4. I guess it's suppose to be 5.5 on average. Now we have to take him to see a hemotologist. The doctor now informed us that it could possibly be leukemia. I really don't think this doctor should be telling us that he could have these things unless she knows for sure. Should we be really worried about this or could it still be nothing?

My sister in law is having chest pain under her left breast and in her sternum. Her CEA levels are high and she has cold sweats from head to toe. I think it is Angina, MAYBE but I am not sure and I know it leads to heart attacks. It happened yesterday and again today.

I am looking for a website that will let me keep track of what I eat, how many calories, how much I burned when I exercised. Basically so I can see the results little by little on paper. www.my-calorie-counter.com i was looking at and it was great! Only thing is it doesn't show me my total, or how much in total i burned after I put in everything. It basically doesn't give much for free. So I was hoping someone knew a free website that did everything. (once again EVERYTHING=very descriptive for what I eat and what I exercise, shows me calories ate and burned, how much I should do) Everything like that. Thanks in advance.

This is kinda a personal question, but what should I do. Okay so on Sunday my club is going to go and stay in a hotel with a pool. So I'll want to go swimming, but I've kinda got a problem. I do have quite a bit of hair down there, and I want to know what to do with it so that it's not leaking out the sides of my swimming suit. I shaved my thigh and tried a little bit of the bikini line, but now I've got little red bumps. Are those razor burns or what? So I was just wondering what I should do about it.


Thanks.

I have been taking antidepressants for about 8 years. Lately, like in the past couple of years or so, I have noticed that I seem to be getting stupid. I constantly forget things, like turning off lights, misplacing things, having total blank-outs when I am speaking, I write words backwards. I feel like I am losing my mind. I'm only 42 so I can't be getting Alzheimer's. Could it be that the antidepressants are negatively affecting my brain?

I bought some lubricant today when I was at the store. I bought the store brand. this is the first time I've ever bought one but I am getting into the stage of life where sex is uncomfortable. It's not painful yet, YET! but it is a lOT uncomfortable.

Ok here is the question: or questions I should say.

1.) Do I apply with my fingertip?
2.) How often? Every Day? or right before sex? or ???
3) Am I supposed to wipe it off after sex?
4.) Do I just apply it to the "outside" or put it all the way in as I would if I had a yeast infect.?

Sorry I am so dumb on this stuff. I have on one else to ask. All my female relatives are dead. And I don't have any friends that I feel close enough to.

I don't think I like this getting old stuff. :-(

Is it a lack of empathy, a misunderstanding of what cancer feels like, immaturity, a misplaced attempt to be amusing, lack of experience.....?

Well, first of all, do you think my weight is alright? I'm very small boned, asian, 5'1", and currently 103 pounds. I barely fit into a size 3 jeans though. And i'm 16.
Also, I am going on a cruise and since my parents will be there the whole time, I'm going to have to eat around 2000 calories a day for 2 weeks since it's a buffet italian...and my parents will make me eat pizza, pasta etc...please don't say that I can decide to not eat them, because i can't.. i have to eat alot when they're around and i'm not anorexic. i eat around 1300 calories a day to maintain my weight. I'm not active and do not have a fast metabolism. So, approximately how much weight will I gain with eating 2000 calories/day for 2 weeks, with some walking. And is weight gain instant or does it take like a few weeks? I think 103 is a good weight for me, but my parents think i'm emaciated because they're used to chunkiness.

My mother is 5' 7" and my dad is 6' 4". I am 14 years old and 5' 4" but I had anorexia nervosa for a year so I am hoping that stunted my growth. If you have an answer could please provide the formula and/or link to the website which gave you your answer. Thanks!







P.S. hopefully I will be tall enough to model! :)

I am taking Candesarten 8 mg. If I leave them off for a day, I certainly feel better. When I mention side effects to the Doctor they look at you as if you are imagining it.

I sleep by myself so it's not being done by a bed mate.

I am so confused. Any ideas?

2007-03-01 03:56:49 · 5 answers · asked by Joy_Brigade 3 in Mental Health

I have been recently having trouble sleeping in my boyfriend's bed(a queen with two pillows and one big blanket.) When I am alone in the bed I fall asleep no problem but as soon as he gets in the bed I am tossing and turning and can't get comfortable. I wake up 2-3 times a night after I finally fall asleep and when I wake in the morning I feel like I only slept 5 minutes.

When we sleep in my bed (which is a twin with loads of pillows, soft sheets and big fluffy blankets) it still takes me a minute or two to get comfy but then I am out like a light and wake up feeling refreshed.

MY one suspicio is that his bed isn't comfortable enough for me, but the thing is when he's not init I sleep just fine. We have a very loving relationship so I know my subconcious isn't trying to get my attention, but what the heck? How can I deal with this?
