hi, im a 18 years old guy, my height now is 5' 9..

but from last 5 years i observe my self that my height increases just about 6 cm.. (from 2002-2007)

im not a sportive guy that play sports every time..

but from small age i like to drink a calcium supplement ( it consist calcium hidrogen phospate), and that boost my height increase ( i think )

so its really true??

now onwards i start taking the same calcium supplement again..

and in a year normally how many cm does the bone in a growing child like my age increases??

and i have this paranoid that my height doesnt increase because i like to jerk off??

makes me alot confused!!

pls help

There are two doctors saying I need surgery. One for the hernias (multiple) and one a plastic surgeon to correct the diastasis (seperation) of the abdominal muscles that didnt close after 2 back to back pregnancys.After my first born 9yrs old my tumy went back flat.. but later i had two more girls and they were really close together and over stretched me... I have many hernias and my liver acn be felt and decending aorta can be felt as well as intestines thrugh the belly button. Geesh im nervous... wondering if there are people out there who can share with me their stories on pain.... healing or down time... did they like results.... are you glad you did it? how long were you down for? Stuff like that. I go in today for results of CT scan and possible risks and surgery date scheduled.... a little nervous...i am constantly thinking about how much pain i would be in afterwards... maybe i am going crazy is there a bad scar? any advise would be grateful. thanks

I have been feeling unwell for about 3 months. During this time i have had a type of middle ear infection, heartburn which led to chronic gastritis/stomach ulcers, vestibular weakness on right side, and now low TSH Thyroid as shown on recent blood test. Apart from this i am getting the ongoing symptoms of lightheadedness, hot flushes over my body, dullness, inability to concentrate, fatigue, weakness, spaced out "high" feeling and the feeling as if im not in this world.

I have done brain MRI scan, Abdomen scan which were normal. I have also seen neurologist, ENT & had a gastroscopy done.

I have had numerous blood tests with results of normal blood count except for mild liver count (*93) which is now decreasing. I have also done testing for HSV, Hep B&C, HIV in which all were NEGATIVE. I did a blood test in mid January for Thyroid TSH which was normal but recent blood test show the TSH level is low. I dont know why?

Havent been able to work for 3 months and have not felt normal

Im having a lot of trouble with going out and working.
the thing is, that my social life is very important to me and for my happiness.
when I stay home at night i get bored and i need to go out, and because of insomnia i dont sleep until 4am anyways.
how do i balance this idea of work and play though. because after each night of play,, i have to wake up at 9am.

I have been having a problem with my gassiness for years. I've gotten it checked up on, and nothing has helped at all.
On average my daily diet includes
-Raisin and Cinnamon Bagel
-Boiled Egg
-Spaghetti with meatballs and tomato sauce
-Salad
-50/50 White Brown Rice
-Lean Meats
-A couple of treats every so often
-Soy Milk
I hardly consume any dairy products whatsoever, yet I am passing gas every minute of every day (excluding my sleep, of which I am unaware).

I was diagnosed with no known allergies to the common foods (prick testing)

The problem is, the problem is REALLY bad when I am stressed out. Otherwise, the problem is still there just less severe. Are there any other reasons why I have this?

I asked a question earlier about an MRI scan where a doctor was called in to look at the scans while they were being taken. Some of the responses were saying that the scans could have been questionable scans. What does that mean? Sorry for asking so many questions, but I am a bit worried because I dont get the results back for another two days. Thanks

Hi. My husband and I are considering buying a house that we like very much, but it has a problem: the current owners have a cat to whom I am very allergic. It's really, really bad: even taking allergy medication and using my asthma inhaler ahead of time didn't really help. Here is what I am wondering: would getting the carpets professionaly steam-cleaned work to address this issue? Or would I more likely need to actually replace the carpeting itself? Also, what about adding a whole-house air purifier to the HVAC system? Is it likely to make much of a difference?

If you could please let me know your thoughts, that would be great. We love this house but not if it will keep making me sick. Thanks!

I live in a small, very rural community. I have bipolar disorder with OCD. Lately, things have gotten tough, not just emotionally but with money too. I need to see a counselor but cannot afford one and have no insurance. The nearest 'freebie' is 2 hours away. Are there any online services or phone services that offer free help (for non-suicidal problems)?

I might have asthma and I am planning on joining the Marines. I was just wondering if you can cure it with some kind of medication that will destroy at least 99.9% of it? If so, what kind of medicine is it called and where can I get it from?

Every morning and night, I use proactiv's three step program, Renewing, Revitalizing, and repairing, but Ive had the refining mask for a while and since Im not seeing much improvement in my face with the three step program, I want to try the Refining Mask, but not sure when too..

Do I use it BEFORE the three step, then when I was my face after 10 minutes, do the three step, or

Do I use it AFTER the three step?

Im not sure in what order to use the refining mask, and do I sleep with it on?
