I am 28 years old, and I just started waking up in the middle of the night having to go to the bathroom, sometimes even twice a night. I have not changed habits (such as drinking a whole bunch of fluids before bedtime), so I don't know if this is just me "getting older" or if there is a problem. I used to be able to sleep through the night, and now I never can. I do have recurrent kidney stones and UTI's (for which I've seen a Urologist), but am I just being paranoid? It's kind of annoying after being used to sleeping through the night!

I wear Orthotics in my shoes, recently they have started to smell, (I have had them about 6 months) does anyone have any idea what I might be able to clean them with?

The smell has not come from shoes as I have tried switching them into new pairs and I do not wear them for sports.

The Orthotics are not washable as they must not get wet, and I have already tried using a foot spray and fabreeze on them, both of which just added to the smell actually!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I'm on the 5th day of what was a pretty bad fever. I'm now down to 100. Should I take tylenol, which gets my fever down and i'll be able to get more homework done. Or let my low fever do what its supposed to do ; fight off the virus?

Im hoping to loose weight for my wedding but the problem is a few years ago i was hit hard with a mental problem & now have problems leaving the house alone, meeting people and a big problem with the way i look.
I moved to my area 2years ago (in july) & i know no-one, but like i said i have problems meeting people.
I have 3 kids under 3 & no room in our house for exercising. I have no idea what to do.
I cant leave the house alone to go running & i cant meet people to do it with. I cant do it with my partner (long story).
I need a diet i can stick to easily to loose some weight then maybe i might have some confidence to go out to a gym at some point.
Another problem is i crave chocolate alot & things to munch on around 9pm. Oh & im slightly addicted to red bull and i smoke a bit.
GOD! im a bloody mess :o)
I havnt got loads of money to spend on books, websites or strange foods.
If you have a diet i could use please could you email it to me Festi@happyhippie.com
thanks ash

My 13-month old son just had some routine blood work done and the the pediatrician's office called to say that there was evidence of an elevated platelet count (not leukocytes or anything else - just platelets). We're having that part of the test redone to check for errors and it might just be that, but what are the other possabilities?
- he has not suffered any notable physical injuries and does not show irregular bruising.
- he has had a mild cold which began about 2 days before the initial blood test.
- he has none of the other symptoms of Kawasaki's disease (fever, red eyes, etc).

Any ideas for my paranoid mom of the month crisis?

I've been twenty pounds overweight for about a year (please don't suggest loosing weight, I am working on that part of the problem and have lost three pounds already!), and I carry some of that weight on my thighs, causing them to chafe together. Since I've started working out three weeks ago, the chafing has become worse because of the extra movement. I bought some bike shorts to prevent this but now I would like to know what I can do to heal the purple-ish lines that mark where my thighs chafe. Is it best to just wait until I have lost more weight and see if it heals on its own?

I am 20 and a virgin obviously. I am so nervous about the first time. I am very uncomfortable with my body. This is embarassing but I have long labia and I feel like the guy is just gonna be grossed out. This is a big reason why I have not had sex. Also I fear getting pregnant. Also how painful will it be?
