I got into a patch of poison ivy (I guess - actually, I don't know how I got it..somewhere at the barn) and I didn't realize it was poison ivy (never had it before)so I was scratching it and now it is all over my arms, and it's horrible. I've tried calamine lotion and nothing is working, and it's so bad to the point where I've got huge blister-things everywhere. Anyone know of anything to help soothe and take the itch away? I'd be appreciative forever!

My mom always pressures me to eat this, that, etc...so I can grow. I'm age 14, and am 4 ft 11 inches tall. My friends are 5 ft 3 inches or taller (We're all in the 8th grade). I tried drinking milk, and swallowing vitamin pills (for teens) but they don't seem to work. My mom says that if I don't eat this.......blah...then I won't grow anymore cuz I'm in the teen years. What should I eat or do so I can grow ( even a few cm would help!)
ps: I want to grow so certain clothes will look good on me that are meant for tall people :]

I have been soo tired lately...
I used to take serquoel 100mgs to help me sleep but i havent taken that for awhile. Now i've been taking melatonin to help me sleep. I dont need serquoel to help me sleep anymore because i am always tired..i dont even need to take melatonin. I am always tired sometimes i'll sleep 12hours. I dont kno why i am so tired. I might be going through a mild depression, but still i think that is sleeping way too much. I never have energy to do anything.

Anybody know if you can drink alcohol while undergoing chemo. I don't mean everyday, just one or two days on the weekend while out having dinner, etc.

Alot of stuff has happened to my family this past year and that is when i started to eat more than i wanted and got fatter. I eat when i am bored, wheni think i'm hungry, when i know i'm not hungry, i have even hidden food in my room. I don't know what to do and i need some help. What are the steps or something i should take to stop eating so much?
