Are root canals supposed to hurt? I went to one dentist who did it pain free (male) and another dentist did it really painfully (female). Is this because the different teeth were problematic at a different level or is one dentist better than the other?

I have adenomyosis and endometriosis and my doctor is going to give me a Mirena IUD to treat the diseases. Does anyone have experience (good or bad) with this IUD? How do they dilate your cervix to put it in? Is it true that it's painful to put in if you've never had kids?

Often when I get sick I end up with a bad cough and coughing up mucus from my lungs. I go to the doctor and they always say the same thing, you are just getting better & clearing it up. Nothing we can do take some pain medicine for the cough. aka just deal with it lol. So I am wondering if there are other things I can try to help break it down? I often drink herbal tea and that helps some with soothing my throat. Anything else?

So my uncle just had some surgery for his shattered thigh bone. He had a metal rod(?) inserted into his leg. He is wondering if the doctors are going to leave it in there or are they going to take it out later. Do any of you know the answer to this?

I hate birth control because I feel like it makes me moody and makes it hard for me to lose pregnancy weight, however this baby may be my last baby. I am only 26 so I do not want to do any drastic measures like getting my tubes tide or anything.

I want to get dentures, but my insurance will not cover them because they are considered "cosmetic". Does anyone know of any programs that can help me? I could afford some form of monthly payment but not the total cost all at once.

Why do I always want to exercise when I'm drunk? Is that bad for you? Will you still get the same benefits as when you're sober exercising? Do other people do this?

You disagreed with me. You are having thoughts that are not based in reality. You are making false accusations.

Those are signs of Borderline Personality disorder.

You need to see a psychiatrist right away.

You need to be on Luvox, Rispiridone and effexor.

my body woke itself up early today, like at 6:30 or so, and i had bad cramps, so i figured i'd probably could just fall back asleep and all go away.

well after a half hour, i had to get up 'cause by then it was really hurting. i went to the bath room and discovered that i had my period. but when i got up, the pain got SO much worse.
i decided to go down stairs for tylenol.
and i couldnt even make it to the bathroom down there. i stopped twice and blacked out cause i had so much pain in my adominal area.
i remember finally getting enough strength to get the pill bottle, but when i got it i guess i was shaking and they spilled all over the floor, but i still took two.
then i remember after i ate two i blacked out and fell to the floor and couldnt see for about 60 seconds.
then i made it to my living room screamed for my mom. she gave me a heating pad

i thought maybe i was constipated?but i wasnt.

I'm 16 and the pain went away in about two hours with the pad. i nervous now

I have a long history of depression. I have been on many meds and most do not work. I'm currently taking Cymbalta and while it does do some good (no more suicidal thoughts), I still have a lot of the symptoms of depression, i.e., lack of energy, no motivation, lots of sleep, isolation. My doctor (a psychiatrist) has recently added Focalin XR. It seems to be helping. Any thoughts of taking an amphetimine for depression? Is anyone out there doing this?

My face isn't really full of acne. Occasionally it gets on my forehead and little bumps around the sides of my mouth. My nose has little dots, dunno what they are called. Anyways, I've heard healing stories about sea salt(which I do, in fact, have at home) to tape on your nose. I have a Clinique Superdefense or whatever you call it and I normally wash twice a day with this cleanser, Clean&Clear Foaming Facial Cleanser. But my face gets really bad. My mom has a clear face but my dad has oily skin.

My face has been getting better but I want to make it completely clear and maybe keep it that way. I don't wear make-up but I do have bangs. I keep my bangs up when I go to sleep sometimes. I just want to take away the redness and the minors zits.

Please help me?
