My 2 year old started being sick yesterday morning, ended up doing it about 6 or 7 times during the day, he couldn't keep any food or drink down.

So got the Doctor out who said it was a viral thing, sickness without diarroha, he hasn't got a temperature and he said we should give him 'gastric rest' (no food) so his stomach can settle and he would be OK.

Today he hasn't been sick (but then he has hardly eaten anything), but has slept all day, all he has eaten is a tiny piece of toast.

Obviously we are worried about him, if he is still like it tomorrow we are thinking of getting the Doctor back out.

Has anyone had any similar experiences or have any idea when he will start to feel better?

My friend has got this little lump on his scalp. It's no more that 7mm wide, and it looks like its detached, but it very much attached! It's not particulary hard, but whenyou press it it hurts. Also when he tried to pull it off, it bled!
Just wondering if anyone knew what it could be and whether it's worth a trip to the doctors :)
Thanks

I am only 22 years old. but I have only had 1 mammogram in my life and that was when I turned 18. How often should a woman get a mammogram? Am I too young to get one or should I be getting one done at least once a year? I am just curious that is all.

Can someone tell me what the recommended intake for a female (age 32) is for Vitamin B12? Also, what the safe amount is if someone were to take more than the recommended amount. Everything I find on the internet gives me some weird kind of measurement (not like mg, or mcg)... I need to know the amount in mcg, as it says on my bottle of B12. I always take multi-vitamins, but have been trying to take each one 'seperately' as I find it much more effective. Thanks in advance for any answers!

I completley stopped eating meat about 6 weeks ago, that is when our track season started (i'm 14), and i ran the mile/1600 soooooo slow. about a hole minute slower than last season, when i was eating meat. and my times never got better either, even though each time i ran i felt like i was going sooo fast and i was pushing my self to the fullest. Is it because my body is just getting used to not running on meat, or is being a vegetarian a bad benifit to running? will my body soon get used to not having meat, and i will run just as fast or faster than last year? -i dont want to be slow anymore-

In the mid 70s parents were advised not to let their children eat peanuts. Not because of allergic reactions, but because a child under three might inhale them. Now we're told that the massive increase in nut allargy is due to the fact that children don't eat nuts from an early age. Is this an advertisement for peanut butter?
We are often told fairy tales about food, or hear them from an unsubstantiated source.

My friend-- and ex-- had been planning a day to just let me relax and think about myself and not help anyone else. I've been really stressed lately and I never really have a break. I don't remember the last time I went on vacation. And I have a lot of problems. They think it would be good for me. I don't know how it will work out because I never put myself before others. I'm always thinking about others. I'm just looking for your opinions. Anything you want to say, go ahead-- even if you want to say something mean. I'm flexible today. =)

I mean when I was in my 20's, I was very slim but now in my early 30's I put on weight. I'm freaking out I might look like a cow if nothing's done. Is it the food you eat, luck of excerise, something to do with your genes.
