Health - 5 May 2007

No "miracle" pills,shakes,etc.I can change my diet some,but honestly completely going vegan and drinking nasty as soy shakes is not what I'm looking for.I have a stressful life at times,I am a college student with three children,no membership to a gym,and I can't afford a fancy Gazelle.I need some ideas for mostly in-home workouts,and things I can do with my children.Any smartass answers will be deleted and get a bad rating.

I have a bad shoulder and I've taken Lortab before. I'm just wondering when I'll notice. It's been about an hour, and I'm still in pain.

I live on a busy main road and work night shift so i sleep with earplugs everyday, until i've saved enough money for a double glazed window.
Anyway the wax must be getting pushed deeper into the ear, has anyone slept with plugs frequently for a long period of time and any harmful side effects?

I am supposed to start a new pack of birth control pills the Sunday after I start my period (which is usually around Tuesdays). I didn't realize until a week ago that I accidentally started a new pack on Friday instead of Sunday. I have never done that before and I have been taking them for 4 years now. Can that really mess me up?

I'm 15 and I think I fit many of the characteristics of AS. I'm not very social, don't really get all that attached to people, and have never had many, if any, close friends. People have said to me "You don't know how to read people!" and I guess they could be right - I don't really interperet facial expressions, miss sarcasm, and do things like talk "too loud" and say things that people consider rude. People also say I'm immature (for example, I have a teddy bear which I CAN NOT sleep without)

I also have ultra-sensitive ears, and I HATE loud noises. When I was younger I used to scream and cry when ever someone was vaccuming. Also, I can't stand the tone of the bell they use in my school... it's like being tortured. I also hate the sensation of drawing with chalk or felt-tip markers, or the sound of people using such things.

I have really strong, obsessive interests which people say are "weird" like brain tumors and Jim Henson.

Do you think I could have AS?

I've been experiancing symptoms of Anxiety/Depression. I went to my MD and she agreed with me. She put me on meds but i had a really bad time on them and she told me to stop, told me I could possibly be bipolar becuase its coming out in late teens (im 18). She referred me to the local mental heath clinic. I was very reluctant to go but was basically forced to by a very close friend, the lady who did the assessment on me ruled out that I was bipolar but was experiancing anxiety with brought on depression. She told me to go back to my MD and get put back on meds, so I did BUT .. it was suppose to have been a joint effect with both my doctor and the clinic keeping an eye on me and the meds. The doctor bothers me but I dont have a problem going to see her but the clinic I'm avoiding their phone calls so i dont have to make an appointment. What should I do ... Can I just stick with my own Doctor ... Should I phone the clinic and say no stop phoning? go for one appointment? ANy Advice

Ok, so i went into the sauna, and guess what? After the sauna I applied some of the AcneFree thing. And now my whole face is swollen. I washed it off, and my face returned to normal. But the zit...the zit looks bigger. Ugh, so, do you guys think I can get my skin back to its regular balance by the 22nd? (It's the 5th today, about 2 weeks from now?)

I have had bothersome pain in my right calf, feels like an electric shock kind of pain. I have also been having back pain but MRI shows OK. The back has been better, but not the leg. I also had mormal MRI of the leg. Could this still be sciatica and not show up in back MRI??
