My family doctor has prescribed several ointments that have not worked long term. Hes sending me to a specialist soon but that could take 2 months. Has anyone had success or seen a dermatologist and what did he do for you. This chronic condition has me off work and is so debilitating.

I've never been a skinny person, but I've never been really fat either. I always could stand to lose some weight, and over the last 3 months have lost 15 pounds by diet and exercise in preparation for this trip. I still am not perfectly toned or slim yet, so I still feel shy about bearing it all on my beach vacation! I never wear anything completely revealing and the thought of wearing a bikini makes me cringe! I'm usually the girl on the beach with a t-shirt and jeans on! How can I get over this, so I don't ruin my vacation! I love the ocean and beach but never give that love justice by wishing for a time when I can run out on the beach and into the ocean without a care in the world!

There is so much good info out there. The truth is so simple. To be fit and close to ideal body weight you must eat healthy reasonable meals and get some sort of exercise a few times a week. Genetics does play are role and determines how close you have to watch you diet and how much exercise you need during the week to stay in shape. There are some medical conditions that will cause a person to be big or small but those are not the normal cause of weight issues in America today. You do not have to be on any special diet, or have some special work out video to loose weight. Diet pills can cause temporary movement in you weight but are not long term fixes and can have very negative effects. Like most things in this world if you have is some motivation, self discipline, and education on the issue then you have everything you need to be a success. You do not need to pay $70 to clean you colon or $50 for a bottle of pills. Why is this so hard to accept for may people.

Help! Last night my friend had an incredibly upset stomach, and was running back and forth to the bathroom for four hours. Eventually there was blood in his stool. He then vomited twice and there was blood in it the second time. What is going on? Is this just a 24 hour virus? Or does he seriously need to go to the doctor right now? I told him to drink tons of water and stay warm...did that help at all?

My husband and I have been married for almost 3 years now, and we have to little girls together.

I have no desire to have intercourse. I do not have a problem getting aroused, but just really don't ever "want" it.

My husband has been ok with it, but I feel really horrible about it. This has been going on, off and on for a little over 2 years now. I don't know what to do!!!

Does anyone have any ideas, of what would cause this so young in age? Please help!!

Is there any reason I'm so skinny? My parents were quite thin when they had me and now my dad's become a little overweight. Is it because I don't exercise much? I go for a couple of brisk walks a day but the rest of the day I just sit in front of the tv. Only recently I've started working out.

I'm still 18 though. Will I grow bigger as I get a little bit older?

Any advice would be helpful. And if you're just going to reply with "OMG you're so skinny!!" please don't bother. I know I'm skinny.

My mother has lupus. She has permanent discolorations on her face from the "butterfly rash" from lupus. She is very beautiful and I would love to find her a cream or lotion that would reduce the appearance of the blemishes on her face or make them disappear. Has anyone used anything of this sort with success? Her self-esteem has suffered greatly from this, and I want to do anything I can to help her. If you have used anything with results, please tell me the name and where it is available. All help is appreciated.

I am a nurse, I work at a nursing home. A new grad, just married, just moved away from home. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety for years, but now that I am in a real job and have to be reliable and responsible, it is becoming too much to deal with. I am on mediaction, I go to thereapy, but I always ask about coping skills and I never get a straight answer. My psychiatrist said that I have had an enormous amount of stress in the past few months and thinks that I am handling it fairly well (there is more than just my job, I've had deaths of close friends among other things). Can anyone help, I feel like I can't go on like this anymore, and I just want to shut down and quit.

I am thinking about purchasing but have a couple questions. If you've used them, have you seen good results? I do lots of types of workouts, but this seems like fun.
Also, I would think they only work on hardwood floors, but some of the pictures seem to show them being used on carpet. Can they be used on carpet?

I have fibromyalgia, and was just wondering if there are also some homemade remedies out there for pain relief. I take grape seed caplets every day, and that just barely takes the edge off. If you can help me, that would be just great!!!!!
