Health - 5 March 2007

This morning I was in a rush in the car and I popped my birth control pill out the packet and it slipped out my hand and fell..

I've looked everywhere in the car, I even got my dad to help look (he usually finds the things I misplace.) and it's no where to be found.. i looked in my top to see if had fell down my shirt and it didn't.

What do I do?! I don't want to skip a pill for today..

Going in for a c-section in a couple of weeks and doc is going to do a scar revision ...take out old scar ...and sew me back up after delivery ...paid for the scar revision but hospital wants to charge extra for the 15 to 20 min use of operating room ...and maybe more ..like anesthesia ..but delievery and anesthesia cost is already covered ...does this sound like double paying to you?...a procedure that will only take no more than 20 min? btw waiting on call from hospital ... hospital is trying to come up with a figure because of the short time???? sounds crazy to me

I want to try it but can't afford it, and I thought I might prepare some of the dishes at home myself, but have no idea about the foods that you get, the types, and the portions. Does anyone know, and do you think it works?

His mouth doesn't break out when he eats raw or roasted nuts from a container, just when they're cooked in something such as a pie. He especially has problems with walnuts.

That's right folks, whether or not I eat veggies, beans, or any high fiber foods, I poop about 2 times a day. Somedays, it's 3-4 times and some days it's 1 time, but for the most part, I poop 2 times.

I want to know if there is a psychological reason to being a "poor loser" everything i tried to find online said "Lose more often" or "just bite your lip" and crap like that. 90% of the time i lose at something i am an extremely bad sport and say mean things and have even been known to cry (at everything from football to video games to monopoly). I once told my wife that "There is no way i should lose to you, i am WAY better at this than you" after a game of chess that i was LETTING her win!!! Anyway, back to the point... other than the typical "suck it up" answers, i want to knwo if there is anything mentally behind it or a plan to decrease my reaction to losing. My wife says it's part narcassism and part over competivness, but that still doesn't help me. I dont WANT to be a poor loser, but cant control my reactions.

2 months ago I found a lump on my chest, it was a 2cm by 2cm one, and I had gone for at least 3 different check ups to get it looked at. The doctors had informed me that it was most likely a cist, and one of the female doctors had even said that she was 90 perc sure that it was a cist - but I'm not convinced. It is so painful sometimes it feels like I'm having a palpatation attack.
I have already had my pre-assesment apointment, and am going for an operation in roughly about a week, but the nurse that I had seen said that if they found a stem on the cist, then they would have to put me under a general - does that mean if it has a stem then it is cancerous?? And being 16yrs old is it highly unlikey that I have cancer?? I know I am coming across a bit melodramatic, but my reasons for this are that high amounts of people in my family have suffered and died from cancer. I want to know if you have been there as well, and if you have recovered fully. p.s do you think i have cancer?

I have a gummy smile and I hate it. I was looking up online about something called "gum contouring" but all the sites I went to were british. Have you or anyone you know had this done? Was is expensive? Did you have to go to a dentist who specializes in cosmetic dentistry?

am a college freshman male, and I am currently going through a lot of ****. I finished my first semester pretty strong, but this semester I am so struggling. I bombed all of my first exams: organic chemistry, multivariable calculus, and biology. Everything I thought I was pretty good at. I take my poor performance as a wake-up call and am trying to make some changes. I rearranged things in my room, hid everything that seems to distract me, and etc. However, I am so stressed out. I keep telling myself that I will literally kill the next exams, but the school is so full of hard-working ppl that I am sort of going crazy.
There are also other things that bother me greatly. I had a knee injury while doing squats in November, and it is still affecting my mood. And there is a girl of my interest, but things aren't working out the way I want them to be. For example, I was gonna ask her to lunch today, but she was sick and didn't come to class. I have to wait till next monday for counseling.

In december dr's found that i had a cyst in my right overy. last month they checked it and said it was gone. But now i am having really weird periods. Last month it came 2 days early, lasted 2 whole days, completely stopped then started again lasting another 2 days. That has NEVER happened to me, so i went to the dr and she pretty much just laughed at me and said that it normal to have a weird period every once in awhile. So after that i am thinking about switching dr's. She told me to keep an eye on the up coming periods and if they continue to be weird, then come back. So anyways, this month my period came on Friday, 1 day late, lasted that whole day, then on saturday, i had very little bleeding, and same on sunday and today. My "normal" periods came every 32 days, since last July, and lasted 7-8 days, with bleeding every day. So my question is what could be wrong? I don't wanna be laughed at by the person i should be trusting, unless absolutely necesary. Oh, i'm not on bc since 6/06

Well, some people try to bath or take a shower almost every day. Are we that dirty and stinky to wash ourselves that often if we could once or twice a week only, unless we really stink?

In 2002 I had my top teeth pulled and dentures put in. 5 months ago I noticed a tooth had broken though my skin and created a hole. Last week I went to the doctor with a terrible infection. I was put on 2 different antibiotics by Tuesday morning I was worse so i then called the ones that caused this, they were very rude and tried to get me to come in the next week, I told them I was on the verge of going to the hospital,,,they agreed to see me so I went, to find out 2 different roots were left in my mouth over 5 years ago...I was almost put in the hospital for the infection. the dentist put me on z-pack and told me to go to the emergency room if it got worst...Last Friday they did surgery (they said it would be free) to remove them and cut holes where x-rays were not even taken, they put stitches in my mouth,rushed me out the back door without telling my husband anything, lots more happened but no more room to tell, what should i do, it looks like they did exploritory surgery.
