does it work the same way in reverse? I want to quit smoking, does that mean after 21 days I should be over my addiction?

I am a pre-diabetic with frequent hypoglycemia. I improved my eating habits; eat protein bars in between meals. I have seen many doctors, but none want to help me or acknowledge that I was diagnosed pre-diabetic in the past. I got the shakes twice today, they are unpredictable and dangerous (especially if I drive). What can I do? Is there over the counter stuff I can take to help me stabilize my blood sugar? It is taking a toll on me, I have tried various diets and it results to hypoglycemia

Thank you

I have a 15 yr old daughter who is already wearing a size 36G bra. We have to have her fitted at a very pricey store where her bras are close to 125.00 each, even more expensive than that when it comes to the sports bras. She is a very active teenager...she swing dances, is in weightlifting class, etc...but her breasts are just too much for her to handle. She has a hard time running, they just get in the way, and of course, I have 30 yr old men hitting on her because with breasts like her's, there's no way she's only 15.

So, I guess I'm curious as to how old is the typical female when their breasts stop growing...and if a breast reduction is done at her age, and if she's not done growing, with she continue to grow after the reduction and then defeat the purpose of having it done to begin with?

This is definitely an issue right now. She will no longer be in weightlifting class after May 15, and I'm positive that class is the only thing preventing back problems.

I'm a young black male using the Gilette mach 3 razor and the shaving cream thats made for it but I was told that if I switch to a DE Razor that there will be less irritation and a cleaning shave. Ive got a little bit of cash to spend on my face but want to go the right way about it. I'm really sick of this burning sensation on my neck and face. I never look forward to creaming my face after my bath in the morn because of the burning sensation on my jawline and neck. So I need a badger brush? What kind of shaving gel/oil? Do I need that stingy razor bump cream to use after shaving? I want to purchase all this stuff of ebay.co.uk seeing as I am in the UK or even if there are any good british websites where I can make my orders. Regards

We as humans have been walking on our two feet for a long time and yet we have not adapted to it yet. Why is it that we still injure our knees so much?

I know it seems silly, but I've always had a deathly fear of needles. I have had them, but I nearly have a panic attack when I am getting ready to have one. Just talking about having to get a shot or needle and I tense up. I can't seem to get over it. It just hurts so much! Anyways, my question is (because I know I will face many more needles in my lifetime), Are there deep skin creams doctors can use to help numb it more and/or is it possible to get muscle relaxers or something to calm me down before the shot (or blood test)??

please tell me what these dreams mean and why im having them.
thanks.
