I have a prescription that should have been used up months ago but am still just taking them whenever I feel that I want one.
Do prescriptions ever expire? Is it wrong for me to be using it this way, I'm not abusing the drugs but I am using it some days to just mellow out or relax.

Help, my husband got a really bad sunburn on sunday and yesterday he started freakin' out, it was burning, itching like crazy. He couldn't stop walking around the house crying and screaming from 5pm til 3 am unitl he finally fell asleep. (that was after giving him a bunch of ibuprophen and Nyquill to help him go to sleep.) We tried aloe vera for sunburn, the insatnt coolant spray, lanacane, Hydrocortisone, baking soda in a cold bath, baking soda paste on his chest. Nothing would work, he said it felt like a bunch of needles going through his body, or fire ants biting from the inside. He really made me worried, now this morning he seems fine cuz' he's sleeping, didn't even wake him up for work......Please help, He's whillin to try anything! I was just told about vinegar ??? wha do you think?

I got the depo shot, which is a birth control shot that is administered every three months, but because I didn't have the money to buy the medicine when my period came on I got the shot administered as soon as I got the money but this wasn't until after I had already had my period. Now two months later I haven't had a period at all and I have had sex unprotected, could it be that I am pregnant? Or should I give it mroe time?

For example last night I had a meal of brown rice and steamed vegetables,

about 2 hours later I went to bed but I started to experience heart palpitations,shakiness,racing heart beat,and feeling jittery,I had a hard time falling asleep and felt groggy not energetic when waking up in the morning.It seems I had some kind of reactive hypoglycemic response.What causes these symptoms?
If I would have had chicken and vegetables instead of rice I would not have experienced this episode...........

combining proteins and carbs at the same meal doesnt help me either because i have digestive probs and digest better when protein and carbs are seperated.

I am willing to attend some penis enlargement program or take some medication. I don't want to try surgery. I found these products that look quite promising: http://enhancedmale.org .
Did you have any experience with such pills?

I think I have strabismus, but my left eye don't always cross inwards. I can go for months without experiencing anything but than it returns. I've seen a neurologist but he couldn't find anything wrong with my brain or blood tests, I did an mri and an EEG test too. I also have the tendency to blink alot at times.The thing is that when my eyes do tend to cross they usually only cross in the morning and as the day progresses my eyes go back to normal. The condition is very frustrating and embarassing. Can anyone relate to this and offer some tips,.

I was on the Depo shot and I gained 20 lbs. My doctor was saying that they rarely prescribe diet pills to teens, but in my case it would be fine. I am 15, 5'2" and weigh 135 lbs. Do you think I should take the offer? I'm going back to see this doctor after I see a gynocologist. Please give me some opinions or experiences with prescription diet pills.

I'm sure I'm one of a million who doesn't sleep. I have two reasons why I don't sleep. One, I can not say and two because I just lay in bed for hours thinking. I try to shut my mind off, and think of nothing but even when I do that I can not sleep. I will sleep maybe 48 hours in a week thats 7 days and which is a total of 168 hours and only 48 of those give or take a few i'm sleeping. I usually can't sleep for two days then i crash and sleep 4-6hours in the day time. I know I can't go without sleep. Technically I'm getting sleep so i'm not getting any of the side affects from not sleeping I guess. I just want to know how unhealthy this is and what can I do. I've tried everthing and I'm quite sure I'm too young for sleep pills. That and I already take a pill everyday for migranes so I don't want to take any more. I'd hate to become dependent on a sleep pill i'm only 17. I would like to know some side affects and some solutions if possible. Please don't say see a doctor I have no need to
