I was just thinking about allergies and how people can be allergic to the oddest things. But, I started to wonder if there is anything that's universally safe for all human beings. Like, a substance that humans, as a whole, are not allergic to. Are there any?

I have been sexually active for five years now. I lost my virginity to the man I am with right now at the age of sixteen. We have ALWAYS used condoms, which have thus far, seemed like a great option for us. After all, all of this time we have only been able to see eachother tri-monthly, being that we have lived in other states since we first met. But now, since I'm fresh out of college... and he is still attending. I intend to move to his area with him and move in together. Now, the living situation shouldn't be hard to adapt to, being that we have actually live together for months at a time. Just, as I said before, having sex while using a condom. Unfortunately, I am allergic to latex.. So we have had to buy lamb skin condoms.. But they are extremely EXPENSIVE. So I was wondering. Any other good birth control (pills, rings, etc. etc) that you girl's would recommend? because Condoms and the Rythm Method just can't cut it. (We have both been tested CLEAN for Stds/HIV)

I think the big volumptuous babe is obviously enticing, but I think a sweet small breasted woman is more lovable.

my girlfriend had just went to the doctor for a check up and had a conversation with him. She says she has a lot of stress with her parents and more i dont even know about. Personally i dont think that she needs these pills because she is a head-strong person as i am. But for me to say she cant take them would to be being selfish on my behalf. I cant help but to feel an "un-natural" vibe from the pills, and the thought of her changing moods and actions based on her perscription makes me feel like its not her, its the drug. Can anyone explain why i feel like this, or how i should look at this whole matter?

My mother in law has her blood pressure measured at 201/88 by a nurse [not GP]

She is 92 years old and in adequate health generally.

Is the systolic figure something to worry about and if so what might it indicate?

I've got braces since a week ago and I was wondering if I could ride horses again. Do I need a mouth gear to protect my teeth? I'm working in a stable and it'll be boring if I can't ride for the next 2 years because I have braces.

I never sleepwalk in my life, now I am almost 30 and all of a sudden I start doing it???, it's been like 3 or 4 times in a month already. My husband says I usually talk in my sleep and I have full conversations with him, but now it's like I sit up or stand up and sing or talk.

My husband is completely freaked out because I always fool him , he says he always thinks I'm awake, he never realizes I am sleepwalking, he talks to me and I reply normally but then he realizes I am sleepwalking. What can I do to stop doing it and does this warrant a visit to the doctor?, it's kind of embarrasing!.

BTW, I drink alcohol very rarely like Xmas and Thanksgiving and I have never done a drug in my life, I've read those two are related to sleepwalking but it's not my case. Help!, I am freaking out my hubsband!.

Last few years I occasionally get tonsillitis but this time one got enlarged and stayed that way. Its been three months now. It causes me to cough a little and looks like it blocks half the passage in there. Is this a problem and can tonsils develop into any other trouble? Is age a factor? I'm 55

Thanks in advance for your answers

Wondering about neck hyperextension, possible cervical injury, perhaps skin pulling under the chin which caused the pain and swelling. Neck hurt worse than the 10 inch abdominal incision. No gas was used, by the way - open surgery. Neck was 2 to 3 times normal size day after surgery. Told they had trouble intubating me but no other explanation and they are reluctant to answer my questions. Expected throat to be sore from tube, not a problem. But I'd like to know what caused the neck pain and swelling. Any thoughts?

I have posted a few questions lately. I'm just really scared. I'm a real mess. I feel sick, have chronic pain and just ache all over. Ihave been having trouble going to the bathroom now and I just feel so swollen everywhere. I feel like the goodyear blimp! But yet in a lot of pain! I want this to stop! I'm afraid the Doctor's have really screwed up and made things worse for me. A year ago I started having problems with pain, fatigue and headaches but all they wanted to do was prescribe migraine medicine. Now I'm so much worse and went through several course of treatments with nothing working. I am worried that I may have lupus and/or rheumatoid arthritis. Both run in my family. My cervical spine is falling a part and believed to be a cause for my neck and arm pain. I have all the signs of degenerative disc disease. Here's the rest...my hair falls out every day...barely growing any more..I have a rash (it comes and goes) on my cheeks. It kinda looks like wind burn.Uh oh
