My husband works at a crappy job which is nights (cause he got fired last year and has been in a slup about life every since)
I went back to school cause I was tired of living a crappy life. I am almost done school I can't work after school cause i can't afford daycare right now there would be no point i would make nothing and my husband watches my daughter while im at school then goes to bed when I get home. Money has been really tight lately and I want my husband to have the same hope for a better life and find a different job that pays more.

How do I stay positive and help my husband be positive about his life and career too.

Okay well for a past few months my dad has been having trouble getting up out of his chair.. And he cannot walk right because he says his legs are "Stiff" he literally limps from it.. Also one of the doctors he went too said he had an enlarged prostate.. but the other one (supposed to be a better doctor) said it wasn't that bad and gave him some kind of medication for it.. Also , he can't even lift his arms STRAIGHT up in the air and hes gotton awfully lazy and expects everyone to do everything for him.. Im not used to seeing him like this , i feel as if im with a 90 year old man.. and my dad just turned 56 yesterday... Im worrying that this is the beginning of something thats never going to end.. Hes not scheduled to go back to his doctor intill the end of April and im not sure how long i can stand this.. He refuses to be hospitalized and get thoroughly checked.. My mom is thinking of looking for a roomatologist (sp?) to check for arthritis but im most worried about cancer or somethin

Hello,
A few days ago I realized I had a rather large bump on my head. It's just above my ear and hard to the touch. It's not red or anything, but it is sore when I push on it. Any ideas? I pretty much just want somebody to tell me it's not serious becuse my insurance doesn't kick in until April 1. Thank you!

Ok i'm 20 years old and I had sex like more than 20 times. I'm not noob with it but i have problems. I had 4 girlfriends and all the time i had sex, i had premature ejaculations. I can only control for about 10 minutes and gone. How i solved the problem is I took viagra and I can prolong upto 30 minutes. But I don't want to take these pills because of side effects. At 1st time, I thought my problem might be solved if I had sex more and more. But it didn't solve out. Please if there's anybody who can solve this problem, plz give me some suggestion. I really appreciate it. I want to have sex for like 30-45 minutes before i ejaculate without the help of any pills.

My dad was just diagnosed with this. He's only 43 and is in decent shape. He is also hypoglycemic and will have diabetes someday. His family doctor did the echo thingie just as a precaution when he was having a hard time breathing sometimes. He isn't feeling horrible, just sometimes he falls asleep when he gets home and it's hours before he gets up. He and my mom said the family doctor told him to just eat better and start exercising regularly and they gave him a inhaler called Advair. But I'm wondering if this enough. Shouldn't he get to a specialist or is this something that really is just controlled by diet and exercise?

my husband has bleeding caused by prostate problems. he has been told by hospital that his prostate is enlarged and he needs a cystoscopy. But he also has what seems to be a large tumor on his upper thigh (painless) and last year he had skin cancer removed on his face, now has a lump above his eyebrow. What would be the best type of doctor to see for all of these problems as we do not have health insurance? Thank You

I'm 5'10" tall and I weigh 185. I'm a 37 year old Mom to 2 year old twins. I'm in a size 12. Before I had the boys I weighed 150. I do water aerobics 3 times a week (really bad knees) and I try to do Pilates at least 2 times a week. I eat ok...not overly healthy...but not overly junkie either. My husband is away (he's in the military) and I want to look great when he comes home.
What is a safe and fast way for me to knock off 20 to 30 pounds?

No eating disorders please!

Thanks!!

I need major work (I had an accident and lost a tooth) and I am being told by my dentist that I have to pay out of pocket 60%. This seems so high to me, expecially when I pay out the butt for dental insurance every month! Is all dental insurance like this? Are discount dental programs better? I can't afford to pay 60% of my dental work. Its going to be over $3000. Does this make sense? Whats the point of getting dental insurance if you still have to pay ridiculous amounts of money anyway?

I have noticed that my girlfriend takes birthcontrol pills and we don't have sex, she tells me she wants to wait until she is married. i asked her why take them and she says she takes it for medical reasons and because it controls her period. Is this true?

Thank You

The pains started last night and come and go, sometimes they are so severe that i double over in pain and have to lay there until they subside. I have never been in this much pain before and am not sure whether it is worth it to go to the hospital or not?

Every year my skin flares up. I also have Rhinitus which means im allergic to substances and so i get blocked sinus's. I get it badly on my neck and arms. And also sometimes on my face. I've tried many methods to treat this. Im basically asking if anyone has any ideas as to what else may be causing this flare up? At the moment i have to bind my arms in bandages at night and wear gloves/socks on my hands to make sure i dont make it worse... as it is i'm very image conscious and i go to great lengths to try and look good... i dont know what else to do.

Dermatologists have prescribd me Betnovate and Hydrocortisone. Both of which are fairly effective but i want to tackle this at the source of the problem.

Ive done my research and it could be caused by seasons, pollen, dust, food allergies and stress. What else could bring up these flare ups?

And are there any alternative treatments?

Whenever something reminds me of church, or of the people at church, I start thinking in expletives. Also happens whenever I pass my old boss, or anything related to him.

I can't talk to these idiots without swearing, it's like some kind of uncontrollable verbal spasm. Please help me if you can.
