Hi, I have had a bad toothache in my of my bottom back teeth for a few days now. I've had a temporary filling in it for a few months, but it was starting to break up which caused the pain.

Its a tooth I've had trouble with on/off for years. I went to the emergency dentist today to see if she could take it out. She numbed everywhere up, made me wait in reception for 20 mins then called me back in. She tested it too see if it was numbed and it hurt a little, so she did it again. Then she tried again and all pain was gone.

Next the part where they try wobbling the tooth backwards and forwards to make it looser. I got a terrible pain, and she decided she couldnt do it, but I felt something crack.

She then took the old temporary filling out, and replaced it with a new one.
Trouble is its hurting quite badly right now.

What can I do to get rid of the pain, and why would it hurt after being numbed up? And will it always be like this when I try to get it out.

How does self harming help people who have been bullied? You see it all the time on TV ad's and things, but I don't get how it helps?

Can someone explain?

About three weeks ago I went through something very hard emotionally...when I was driving home I suddenly felt numb all over my face...especially my nose and lips and also in my fingers...i felt short of breath also. But it went away after a while...the next day when I was talking to a friend about the whole situation my fingers got numb again...it hasnt happened anymore...but im just curious as to why or what that could have been?

Most ladies say that size isn't important, that size isn't a big deal. But why, ladies, do a substantial number of you specifically reference the size of a current or past partner's penis?

Think of the reverse: if a guy says that breast size doesn't matter, but mentions the bra size of his partner, well he obviously has taken the time to find out what size cup she wears. But there's no bra for a guy's penis, so how come you ladies actually know that your guy is a SPECIFIC size and yet say that it doesn't matter?

T3, Total...........176 (in range)
T-4, Total......... 9.5 (in range)
TSH.................0.01L (out of range)

I'm going to see an Endocrinologist soon but what do my results mean exactly? They said that it is hyperthyroidism but it seems like hypothyroidism...? If that makes any sense. I mean I've been absolutely exhausted lately, my vision has changed, I've gained a significant amount of weight in only a short time, my menstrual cycle is out of whack (usually six weeks, but now its 7 weeks here, three weeks there, four weeks and then eight weeks)! Thyroid disorders also run in the family.

Rather my question is are my T3 and T4 results normal? and would it be, according to those stats, hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism???

Im a 17 year old male, im average build, not fat or anything and yet if i spend any amount of time slightly hunched over (enough to fold my stomach) when i straighten up again (eg. stand up) im left with red marks across my stomach where the folds were...
its highly inconvenient, and all though its not doing me any harm physicaly, its not great for confidence. Has anybody else suffered from this? Or have any ideas to get to prevent it? I think it might be dietary, perhaps a vitamin E defficiency?
any advice appreciated.

Im 5'6-5'7 and about 150. Im 16 and i hate it how other girls that are extremly skinny call me chubby or tell me to go to the gym, they are joking sometimes but it really kills my self esteem. my boyfriend says he loves how i look and doesnt want me to loose weight. Is he just being nice or do guys actually prefer girls that arent sticks?

I was also wondering do guys prefer makeup on no makeup?< only guys answer that please.

I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Sarcoidosis in 2005. It is hard but I have been dealing with it but it still stresses me out totally. I am 34 & have been on oxygen for 2 years now.
Over the past couple of weeks, my sides started hurting really bad, I actually felt like I was having a heartattack Thursday morning. I went to see my doctor and asked if he would xray my lungs since it had been awhile. (I was really dreading the outcome!)! He informed me that the Sarcoidosis has spreaded to the outer edges of my lungs. It was bad enough that it covered the parts of my lungs around my espagus, which causes the trouble breathing & pain. The pain gets so bad that I have to vomit. (sorry). I take plenty of medicine but it doesn't really help when I am having a bad flare up.
So how am I supposed to accept that this is getting worse. There is no cure for this disease. I also have Pulmonary Hypertention, which I was told only a lung transplant would fix. Can anyone give me some advice???
