Just out of curiousity, does anyone have any idea? Would your blood pressure be higher if you slept for only 2-3 hours during a 24 hour period, or would it be higher if you didn't sleep at all?

Seems like I'm always cold. Even in a normal temperature room (70+F) I feel like its 30F in there. I had blood work done to see if I was anemic and I'm not. I was just curious if there was anyother possible reason I'd be this cold all the time. When everyone else is roasting I've got a fleece on and I have goosebumps!! Help, if possible?

She and i are nature loving, natural kind of people. Her doctor wants to use drugs, but she prefers a more natural plan due to side effects of these drugs. Is there a plan (natural herbs, nutrition, etc.) that I can tell her about to help her? I tell her to stop worrying about her emotional, uh er, melt downs.?. The doctors don't seem to want to discuss "natural therapy" for some reason.

for the last year or two (im not sure how long its been really) i've been having the same kind of dream. it's always a spider (although last nights was multiple little ones for the first time ever) usually at least as big as my palm. it's either on my wall, or curtains, or drops down from the ceiling. i've had this same type of dream over 20 times.. maybe a lot more. i scream, and usually jump myself out of bed, before i fully awaken myself. my parents said i've been doing this for year, they sleep through it now.
it doesnt seem like just a nightmare, but night terrors is rare in adults, and you arent supposed to remember the event, or be reached during an episode, but i remember enough to know what triggered it, and i always vaguely remember my folks coming into my room if they do. these episodes leave me terrorfied, and shaking. they are always within the first half hour of me falling asleep.

I'm quitting drinking caffeine after lunchtime and the withdrawls are not good: sleepy, a little dopey and any other applicable dwarf would be the best way to describe me.

Help - what kind of energy boost can I get without going back to my sweet beautiful addiction to caffeine?

Is there a natural product? I don't want any pills, sprays or anything "drug" ever again after this Afrin thing. I never knew you could get addicted to it. In my case it is the nasal swelling that keeps me using it, not a drug. Right now, the swelling is pretty much gone, but I am still using a really small amount (one spray in each nostral in the middle of the night).

for six days I had a sore throat. Thinking I was married to It by now, I filed for divorce. Unfortunatly it was granted half of everything. I woke up yesterday morning to find that he had moved out but took half my voice with em. Darn sore throat. I feel fine and don't have a sore throat but why am I left with a sqeeky voice. How long will this last and what can I do to help it. I have no insurance and can't afford a doctor this week so seeing a doc is out for now. Wanting to hear from people who have lost their voice before and see what caused it for them, how long it lasted and what did they do to help it?
Thank you

Hi, I'm 20 years old and I recently saw an ad on tv saying that if you are over 18 or have ever had sex then you should have a pap smear test every 2 years or so. I've never had one before and cancer is common in my family so I'm kind of worried and think maybe I should get one. I know I should ask a doctor about this but I'm too embarrassed. Are they painful? What are your thoughts on this? Thanks
