I have been getting tightness in my chest on and off. I've had it longer this time than any other time though. I don't smoke, have asthma or anything, or have a lot of stress, but I am overweight. I don't think it's a heart attack as I've gotten it before and I am only 20...what could be doing this?

I am a week late, but have taken a pregnancy test and it came back negative. I took it in the morning, like the box said. What else could cause me to miss my period? I am on birth control, so I am very regular. I am starting to get concerned. And I wanted some advice before I call the doctor. Thanks!

Before you start with your textbook answers PLEASE READ. My girlfriend is experiencing a painful discomfort on her labia during sex. She describes it as tiny paper cuts, or being rubbed with sandpaper. She has been to the doctor and they have ruled out STDs, bacterial infection, candida (yeast), vaginosis, parasites, and endometriosis. It acts like it is dry, cracked skin, but even with lubrication (both natural or synthetic) we have had to stop mid-coitus because of the pain. She is very health conscious and takes supplements (could she be taking something to cause the irritation?) Any insight would be helpful as the medical field is so far stumped.

I've been having problems with getting a flat stomache. Come to find out it's because I eat red meat. I just started working out about 2 months ago, with a plan of cardio three times a week and weight training every other day around that, because I'm trying to tone. I found other health benefits to way I should stop eating red meat, but right now, my stomache is my biggest concern. I just included drink green tea to my diet because of the AOX in it. But, here's my problem. I am currently deployed to the desert. I eat fruits and veggies, but now what can I eat to help make my diet better? I work nights, so my breakfast is lunch, my lunch is dinner, and my dinner is breakfast. Every night I eat a cup of granola and milk before I go to sleep. Is this good? I need the best tips as to what I should/should not eat for my body. My blood type is A+. That's part of the reason why I have to stop eating red meat. I need pro help on this. Just turned 25. Please, any suggestions?

I am a 53y.o. leg amputee. During my physical therapy, I hopped on one leg, (daily, for a long while, and about 200yds. at a time) using a walker. Then after I had a prosthesis, I still used a walker, bearing a lot of weight upon my arms. I am morbidly obese, so the strain on my arms tore muscles, which were not able to be repaired with surgery. The muscles have atrophied, as a result. Is this possible, due to overuse, and could I still rebuild those muscles back again-perhaps with small hand-held weights?

I had my blood tested and the "bad" cholestrol was ok but I had too much "good' cholesterol. I work out 4-6 times a week and I eat carefully. I was told the 5 pieces of fruit a day might make the good cholesterol to high. How can I have too much if it is good?

I'm 21, married, and both my husband and I have no future plans to have children.

I have severe PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) and it takes a toll on our marriage. Medications have not helped. I would just like to get rid of periods altogether. What can I do to ELIMINATE PMDD? (not just relieve the symptoms of it)

I also have endometriosis and a prolapsed uterus that causes me a great deal of pelvic pain.

I think a full hysterectomy is out of the question, not because bearing children would no longer be an option, but because of the hormonal shift I would experience.

I do not want a treatment that will permanently affect our sex life.

Please help me find out what treatment options are available.
