I have a little girl who is 3 yrs old and has asthma. She is on flovent(3 puffs 3times a day )and ventolin 2 puffs 3-4 times a day. She has been having problems constantly coughing at night and during the day. I've had her to the doctors and they put her on predisone. I haven't noticed any difference, and the doctor says it has to take own course. Does anyone have any suggestion on what to do.

This school year at college, especially this semester, has been far too stressful. My classes are hard as hell and I'm having trouble keeping up. I have midterms coming up that I am still completely confused about. Then on top of that, I have a few family issues to deal with, and so many other things to worry about. And at school, I have a few friends I hang out with, but I have problems actually talking to people about my problems. How can I deal with all this stress? Right now, getting through this semester seems hopeless. Any advice is welcome!!

I caught my 13 yr old son chewing. Broke my heart! I would have never thought he woulda done it. He harps on my husband all the time for doing it. I know all of his friends do it. I told him his grandfather lost 10 siblings to cancer.his grandmother lost 4 to cancer. I'm scared to death for him. I know they have other tests out you can do but can you get 1 for tobacco? if so, where? I know alot of you will think this is terrible of me but I love my son more than life itself and I will do ANYTHING to protect him from this. Until he passes this phase of thinking it's cool to chew.

i dont carry much of my weight in my breasts, even though i am overweight, they arent really considered to be very big. i plan on losing a good amount of weight. about 45 lbs. since i dont carry my weight in my breasts, is it likely that i will lose size in them? or will i lose most of it from the areas where i carry most of my weight?

I can't help but wonder why so many men deem it necessary to scratch themselves in public or in front of anyone for that matter. I asked my boyfriend but he just suggested I post this question..so here goes.

I'm seventeen years old and have all but signed the contract to join the National Guard. I have about three months to prepare for basic training over the summer and would appreciate some advice. I don't need any assistance with cardiovascular, as I can run a sub 5 mile and can easily run long distances (10+ miles no problem). So I'm good there. However, I do not have strength...at all. I'm actually below the minimum weight accepted for my height (6'3'') in the military. I really need to work on my upper and lower body strength and I need to pack in as much improvement as I can in the next three months. I would very much appreciate if you could give me diet guidelines and workout examples...I really don't want to show up as the pathetic 'kid' who has to drag his gun around because he can't pick it up. Thanks.

I don't know what my blood sugar is, but I play hockey and over the course of a weekend, I play four games. I can't get through one without getting a headache. But, if I have a piece of chocolate after the game I'm all better. Does this mean anything?

This may not mean anything, but I was just curious. Now that I think about it, if I do up-downs during the day, I have to have some chocolate before or I get dizzy. Maybe I'm just weird?
