Health - 27 April 2007

i have odd eating habits. its mainly a cycle. ill start it at eating normally. normal portions, kinda all take-out food, but still as healthy as it gets for me. then sooner or later, i realize it tastes really good and i end up eating ridiculous portions to the point of throwing up or almost throwing up [not purging.] after it gets extremely bad i notice somethings really wrong and suddenly start fasting the next day all of these periods last various amounts of time. i wont eat at all or very little till cravings set in again. im always concerned with calories and what im eating except when i binge. i really want something to help me stop binging so that the rest of the issues will also go away since its all based upon my weight. charts say im 5 lbs under a healthy weight, and my doctor said i was really a perfect weight for my height, but my intent is to be thin [dont discuss my thoughts on thinness, discuss the topic at hand.] and im discouraged when i see how i look. any advice?

how do you use it? you know, the acne wash? do you still have to use your daily soap first then rinse then use neutrogena? or skip the daily soap and just use neutrogena all over your body?

thanx!

I heard a rumor around school about estimating penis size. They said that most guys' penis is half the length of their forearm. So a guy whose arm is 12" between the inside of the elbow up to the wrist would be about 6". Is this true for you? It was for me. And if it is true for you, were the measurements very close or a little off? Are you a kid, teen, adult, or old guy?

I have mood swings for no reason. I just wake up and feel really angry and irritated at everyone. But I don't have huge highs or lows. I have chosen to stop drinking alcohol as I thought that might make it worse but it doesn't seem to make any difference. I am really over it, I just want to wake up happy and appreciate life as i have a very good life. If I want it, but it is not happening, does it mean it is chemical

I have a long plane ride coming up soon. My Dr. gave me Niravan to help calm my nerves, since I'm clausterphobic. But, can I be too nervous for it to work? I have never taken it before.

Me: 42, nonsmoker, overweight but otherwise good health. Currently on HCT & Lisinopril for BP control.

A year ago, I had episodes of what could best be described as a "cardiac arrhythmia", where my normal heart rate seemed to accelerate briefly to maybe 6-8x normal rate, lasting ~2 seconds, then returning to normal. Maybe 20-30 events in 12ish hr period, tapering in intensity over time. Minimal stress seemed to trigger event.

Described symptoms to PCP, he ordered treadmill stress test & heart monitor for a month. Neither caught it.

Two weeks ago, arrhythmia returned, same MO, gone next day, hasn't come back. Only correlate I can figure is a burrito I ate about four hours earlier, packed w/ many different things. I'm guessing something in that burrito triggered the event.

I'm going to the doc in a few days for my AP anyway, but I thought I'd ask the forum if there is known evidence of certain foods triggering arrhythmia, and what those foods might be.

Thanks!

You may want to look at this and then tell me why us Christians should not be upset about schools refusing to teach creationism when they are made to preach this stuff --http://www.massresistance.org/media/video/brainwashing.html

My hair has begun to fall out in handfuls at a time. I'm an older lady, 50 years old, and have been under alot of stress lately because of a bad relationship. Could that be the cause? Or what could be some other common reasons?
