Health - 23 March 2007

My wife is going to be leaving her current position as a hospital pharmacist to get back to working a day shift. She interviewed with Eckerd Drugs today and they were VERY motivated to hire her. A HUGE sign on bonus and great benefits. Having said that, in a few months, this Eckerd with be a Rite Aid. I've read some Rite Aid horror stories online, but all were from a customer's point of view. I'd like to hear how a pharmacist views their employment with Rite Aid. I don't want my wife to go into a situation that will cause her undue stress.

Sam's Club also has offered her a position, but with no sign on bonus. Also, they would make her wait 1 year before starting in the 401K plan. The schedule, however, would be better for us as a family. Any pharmacists for Sam's/Walmart who have opinions to share would be appreciated as well.

I have so many rituals like i am scared of rodents bugs spiders and FISH are my main scaredness thing. I have to count things in my head like if someones adress is : 633. I have to go 3+3=6. or the time... 9:45 = 4+5=9... I can't get out of MY bed unless the minutes somehow equal the hour. I cant walk on cracks and getting up in the morning i have to follow a specific pattern.

Yeah I have to go to a therapist for medicine and a councelor for depression but I dont want to tell them about this yet because I'm having family problems and dont trust them. I think I want to ask you guys just beacuse of the fact that there is no harm done just asking...

When I have to speak in front of many people I freak out. I almost feel like I can't breathe. I shake, my voice quivers, and I feel like crying. Is that considered an anxiety attack or do I just have a big fear of talking in front of large groups of people?

I have these problems since I was 13 or 14, now I'm 17. I get headaches when I'm hungry,especially if I have to wait a while . I get hungry like a lot, even after big meals I get hungry if I play sports. My headaches go away when I eat or have candy. I've almost or have passed out. It seems like I eat a lot, I'm a little over weight, but it seems like should be like 200 lbs. But if I don't eat, I get sick, so basically I have to eat. I get shaky sometimes or get very dizzy.
I'm not quiet sure what I have. Please help.

Do Spa Treatments that remove dead skin help remove scars? Because, scars are just basically dead skin right? A lady at the spa told me this and I wanted to try this before the Summer, so that I can show my legs with confidence. Also, do what spa treatments help with cellulite?
Last, facials do make your skin tone pop out and they make your skin glow, as i've heard, right?
Please, give me your input and answers.
Thanks

Starting from the beginning..I don't know if this if relevant..but my b/f n I had sex in December. It was protected..I was on my period and the condom didn't rip/tear..from then on I was sick..I had Nausea,chest pains..and stomach pains. It went on I went to the walking clinic he told me it's probably nothing..just a virus...So I started to get a lump under my ribs and pain in my lower stomach on my left side with gas and still had the old symptoms accept the heart burn. I went to my doctor she said it was nothing and gave me a Lower X-ray which was fine..3 months now I have the problem..I went throught a frequent urination phase. Thats done. Got a urine test,urine culture and a pregnancy test..they all come out negative. Now there a pain in my chest..my side hurts..under my ribs hurts and back hurts. From my belly button and down is still uncomfortable. I try to take it easy but I don't know what it is..also I have not missed a period...Another one is due in a few days.
