Say, for example, you go to a restaurant, and you order decaf coffee, and are given regular coffee. From what I understand, that could cause problems other than simple dissatisfaction. As well, wouldn't the reverse be true? If you specifically ordered regular and were given decaf?

My Gram, is a wonderfull Grandmother, in fact she raised me for the most part. She did Chemo treatments for a year and a half, that failed, Hospice has been called in, and we are just waiting for her to go..... Everyone keeps telling me not to cry, it will make others feel worse, but I cant help it. This woman has been my life for as long as I can remember. ( Yes I am the baby of 5). How should i feel/ act. How can I accept it? How can I help Gram? If anyone knows any of the answers I would be thankful.

But that was on saturday/sunday. And it is now tuesday, and i still feel it. It hurts when I make drastic movements in my arms. I have also noticed a sharp pain lower when i turn my head to the right and my chin is about 3 inches from my shoulder. only to the right. The pain has resonated to my neck and I can feel it through my back.
Could it just be sore muscles? are there muscles in my chest? When I say shest I mean between the 5in verticle strip b/w my breasts.

I'm in my late teens. I am moderatly fit, I try to go running atleast 2 times a week.

I'm 13 yrs old... and have a large, stubborn stomach. I'm not not exactly over weight, but I'm sick of this and I've been trying for over four months to lose it, but no luck. I DO like healthy foods, but have a much bigger sweet tooth. I'm pretty active. All I really need is maybe a plan and some guide lines. I only need to lose around 15 lbs, and I'd like the quickest way to do it. Thanks so much for your opinions!!!

I'm a lifegaurd so i need to get back into shape for the summer. is there any good way to do cardio exercise indoors without special equipment. and further is there any better way to get rid of belly fat than by limiting my calorie intake to apx. 1500-2000 a 15 minute full body workout every other day. then a cardio workout every other day. Im not too knowledgeable about fitness so help me out haha. thank you.

It still hurts really bad, I wake up with it swollen every morning, and I'm getting a lot of puss from it. Is that normal?

she states that I constantly smell like garlic. My breath, my pores, my sweat. I shower, brush my teeth 2-3 times daily, floss, etc. Everything that I should be doing I do.

I personally cannot smell it nor do I hear it from anyone else. I am ruling out the fact that she is trying to be a bee-yotch.

Any ideas or suggestions of what I could try?

I want to lose around 40-50 pounds, and I have been trying to lose weight for more than a year, but have not had any luck. I work out (cardio and weights/calisthenics) for an hour/hour and a half at least 4 times a week. My eating habits do need to change a bit, but it's not like I only eat bad food. I hardly ever eat fast food, and I don't eat a lot of sweets or drink regular soda. I really think my whole problem is mental. I am constantly thinking about my weight and my eating habits, which I believe is causing me to fail. Has anyone had this problem? How did you overcome this problem? Can anyone (experienced individuals preferably) help me with this? Does anyone have any good ideas on how to change my eating habits? I'd really like to have reached or be close to reaching my goal by December. Please help!! Thank you!!

Ok I'm a guy and like 2 days ago a lump sorta disk shaped appeared under my nipple. Its about the size of my nipple and hurts a little bit when i put pressure on it. My nipple also sticks out more than the other one, infact the other one is kinda indented it which I think... is normal? So could this be breast cancer or just something else... If you have no idea don't just tell me to go see a doctor I already figured that out...

My two-year-old has had severe chronic ear infections, and we finally got tubes put in. Before that, he was on tons of antibiotics - three 30-day courses of Septra, several 10-day courses of Omnicef, and many 10-day courses of Amoxil. His teeth are very gray, and I always assumed that this is because he's very resistant to brushing. We have had more success with brushing lately but for a long time it was a non-starter. But then someone told me it might be the antibiotics. Does anyone know if these drugs can cause gray discoloration, and if so, should I take him to the pediatric dentist?

hyperactivity, insomnia, irritability, impulsivity, worsening of depression, suicidal thinking and actions, headaches, heart burn, anxiety and generally feeling disconnected or bombarded by the world around them.

When I share my experience on Prozac, I always get a friggin' thumbs down! Even my psychiatrist didn't believe me and upped my friggin' dosage to make it worse!! I believe he was out to drive me crazy like it was fun for him or maybe he'd get more money if I ended up hospitalized, thank god I was too smart for that. THe money grubbin' idiot.

Is faith in SSRI's superseding genuine negative reactions to the medication?
