the only appointment I could get was 9 days after my period started. (they were busy at the doc's office).

My period was on
monday march 19th the following sunday would be:
sunday march 25th

today is march 27th.
My doctor gave me 28 day ortho tri cyclen lo and said to start taking it next sunday.
I thought you could only take it the sunday after your period.
She said I wouldn't be protected this month and to use backup. (because she knows she told me to sort of start on the wrong day). She said I could just wait till next month when I get my period to start but she thinks I should start now (next sunday) so that I get a little bit more extra protection (because condoms arn't 100% effective).

Now, my question is:
should I start next sunday, April 1st... then start a new pack when I get my period (April 21st) or can I start now (today) March 27?

my cycle is 34 days long, and this pill says 28 days, I'm assuming it will adjust my cycle.

Is it the method of making it? or the ingredient different?

whenever i'm around people, except for a few, i get really nervous and paranoid about what to say. people say i'm weird, but i just get really anxious and uncomfortable with people....how do you cure this? is there a pill, or just a way to get rid of this nervousness? i don't have many friends, and I think this may be why. No one wants to be around someone awkward, do they? because in turn it makes THEM feel awkward, doesn't it? Does anyone else have this problem? Sometimes I drink to relieve these feelings, but I can't always depend on alcohol to cure my nervousness with people forever. What are some good tips to feel more comfortable and confident with people?

I have been having some pain, but mainly a numb sort of tingling in what feels to be the muscle underneath my right shoulder blade. Has anyone had this before? If so, what was the diagnosis and treatment?

I'm trying to lose weight! In the morning, I make myself a Genisoy Chocolate Protein Shake with a small banana and skim milk - That's all I have for breakfast. Is it good for me to do this? I have an apple or orange for morning snack, a lean cuisine and spinach for lunch - dinner - usually salad and a small portion of whatever I make.

I am a very busy mother of preschoolers, yet I feel compelled to spend every spare minute (which there aren't many) answering questions. I have only been a member for a few weeks and I am trying to get to level 2, but it's driving me crazy. I'm now worrying about all the problems of the strangers whose questions I'm answering. Anyone else having similar problems? I think I just need to stop reading for awhile, but I keep feeling compelled to log in & answer questions!

Was talking to an friend this morning and he looked well because he had lost quite a bit of weight?
Apparently he was on the Weightwatchers diet and part of this diet was drinking Lemon Tea.

He told me not to drink normal tea but this lemon tea. After around three days of doing this it turned his bowel motions very dark colour.

Enough of that! Does this lemon tea work or can anyone recommend it?

Thanking you

I have been going to the gym for 2 months and i am not going down in size like I want. I am staying in the same weight range. like I can't get out of the 190's. I am getting discouraged. I want to lose this weight by May 13th.
If I can lose a great amount of weight in like 2 weeks to a month, that will be a jumpstart for me. Then I will just continue to go to the gym as I have been doing.

PLEASE READ, I KNOW ITS LONG.
i have had two piano competitions in the last few days in Dublin. I live in Cork so it is about 4 hours up and down four times plus the playing. I supose i did put alot of energy in it but yesterday and today my head feels like there is a weight in it like it feels full and can't function. It is ok all right if i'm on the fone cos i was on it a while ago but other than that i get that feeling again! My eyes don't feel tired though but do you think my body is very tired. I know this may not sound like a big deal for you but for me it is. I meant to mention that i don't drive.

There is this person that me and my friends know that just get on our nerves everyday. This person would just take anything she sees; tasty cakes, gum, water bottles, chips, anything edible. Instead of jacker her, I thought that why don't we just add something spicy to our food so that when she grabs our snack, she can learn a lesson. We then thought of making mud cakes, and putting vinegar in a woter bottel, but then we thought about the possibility of her choking, or vomiting, or spitting (she spits anything out, once on my face!) then we'd get caught and be "charged" with attempted muder by poison. I need a safe, but good way to get her back that if we get caught, there's no evidence to prove that the snack was "tained". You might think we're evil, but after loosing $50 worth of gum, you might get a little irratated. What are some ways to get her back?
