My project is on amphetamines. I need to know the following:
what is it, how is it taken, the immediate effects of using it, the long term side effects, the signs of overdose, if it is addictive mentally or physically, and how you can tell if someone is on amphetamines. if you could provide websites where this information is located, that would be great also. thanks to everyone!

What exactly is the difference, and what are the signs or symptoms of each one? I'm wondering if my 8 year olds inability to concentrate or organize himself might be because he has one of these.

I am just curious of others opinions.
I had laparscopy surgery several years ago, before I had the surgery, I was told to drink this HORRIBLE stuff called colyte. I completey cleans you out, I mean completley to prep you for surgery. Well, during the surgery, they removed 2 small fibroids, and a small cyst.
To my surprise, I lost about 22 pounds during the next few weeks.
I am curious of others opinions of what caused the wight loss......was it the colon cleansing, or the fibroid removal, or the two together. I am getting ready to have another dose of colyte for another surgery.......here we go again.
Any opinions are appreciated...please no sarcastic or rude comments.

Thank you :)

What gym equipment is best? Also, I sweat more on the tread mill but on the machine it says that i burn more calories on the cross trainer... is that right?

I had a coloscopy done and they had to do a biopsy. I was just wondering how big of a piece of tissue that they did cut off.

I had a very nasty cramp that lasted about 10 min along with wrap around back pain like I had when I went in to labor with my daughter. I don't think Im pregnant now but could that be a sigh that I could be too??? Im on the shot. I also feel very bloated and gassy too.

I'm NOT talking about pimples, whiteheads or blackheads. These are very similar, but they are under the skin and harder to get out. They also appear on my cheeks and are white hard bumps. You can really see them in a magnified mirror or in a black light. How can I prevent them? And how can I get rid of them. All I feel are these bumps on my forehead and the only way I've been able to get rid of them is to take a safety pin and poke underneath the white bump and get it out. But I still keep getting them and they don't go away unless I poke them. But I'm afraid of damaging my skin by doing that. All the dermatologist does is exfoliate my skin and I can do that at home and that's not working either. For the record, I'm 41 years old.

The other day, I was in the shower. When I was finished I turned off the faucet and attempeted to move my foot back, which hit the faucet spout. Now I have a small peiece of skin on the heel of my foot. It has black stuff in it and it still hurts, even though it was at least a few weeks ago. Now, I poured proxide on it which got some of the remaining germs in it. But my legs hurts, and I mean the whole leg. It not a dear god I wanna die hurt but it aches. Do you think this could be a bad thing?

ive got an eating disorder but am sorting myself out with the help of some profesionals and one thing they say is to avoid situations where the negative body image thoughts come into your head. my negative body image thoughts come when i eat out of routine. for example i now eat breakfast lunch and dinner and am fine about it because its in those set times but if i ever snack i feel fat and ugly and just horrible. what way can i stop the cravings for unhealthy snacks? and what snacks are filling but healthy so these thoughts dont come into my head? thank you.
p.s; once im more advanced in the program i can start incoparating snacks into my day but for now this is my task.

He was diagnosed with ADD as a child. He took medication up until his teenage years. Now at age 24, he seems to forget a lot of things, unable to focus, can't comprehend reading materials without an explanation, he can't sit still, talks before he thinks, and just plain unorganized. It has affected my relationship with my family, as we are living with my parents. When he is asked to do something, he almost always forgets, and needs to be reminded several times. My parents are getting fed up with his behavior. My husband is clueless. He does not feel that he has a problem. I don't know what to do. I am torn between my husband and my parents, all the time. I have to defend my husbands actions or non-actions to my parents. It is frustrating. Please Help!
