Health - 20 May 2007

I know I'm supposed to call the police, but is there anything I can do to help the paramedics while they are on their way? Like soak him in Ice water or give him some kind of sugary food? I know it's a form of diabetes, I don't know anything else about it other than it instantly lowers blood sugar levels to a deadly amount no matter what he has eaten or when he has eaten it. I just want to know if I can help him in some way should he have another attack. Thanks!

I'm a 22 y/o male. I started at 164 pounds. After about two weeks of plenty of excersize I weighed in at 148.5 pounds. Now on my Fourth week I think I'm somewhere around 150 pounds. It's hard to tell since every weighing scale is different and I'm now always wearing the same clothes.

My waist line has trimmed down some. Not a huge noticeable difference. Although some of my clothes don't fit as tight anymore.

I look in the mirror and I still have a pot belly. :-( It's hard to say but maybe it's about 5 to 10 pounds worth of fat that hangs there and it looks terrible and it's bad for my self esteem. How long will it take for me to get rid of it? I've been doing aerobic work outs with some weight training and stomach crunches.

I put on this weight in the course of about 3 years. When I started drinking beer. I no longer drink beer anymore and I haven't in a long while. But I still have this beer belly that I'm trying to get rid of.

Ok, so I've been taking ortho tri cyclen lo for 2 months. me and my boyfriend just started having sex without a condom a few days ago.
I am on my placebo week but not supposed to get my period till around the 22nd or 28th (its switching from my 34 day cycle to the pills 28 day cycle which is why it could be anytime in btw there).

so, my question is...
is it ok to start taking the active bc pills instead of my placebo ones because I've heard horror stores about people getting pregnant on the pill and/or ovulating at the wrong time or twice in one month

One night I woke up remembering to take my pill; I took one a row below the row I'd already started due to the dark. Does anyone know if the order in taking these pills matter in their efficacy? Please answer only if you know.

I've spent my life underweight and have recently gained about 15 pounds. I'm enjoying having more meat on my bones, but have a slight problem: My belly. It's the first and last place I gain weight. And its the place where most of my weight is being carried.
Now let me get this out now, before people start looking at me like some sort of anorexic: In no way do I believe I'm fat. I'm simply looking to regain proportion.
Is it possible to get my flat belly back without losing the weight gained in other areas?

I'm worried! I was singing a few minutes ago and noticed that I can't hit notes in my usual range... instead I make a noise rather like a dying cat. Also, my throat is very sore. Could it be laryngitus? I was at theme parks for the past two days, riding a lot of roller coasters and screaming... could that have led to this?

I am 14 years old, 5'5 and 98-100 pounds. I got my first period in February this year. My dad is 6'2 and my mom is 5'5. My doctor orginally said i was supposed to be 5'10 [because i was very tall as a baby] but then as i got older he said around 5'7. Will i still grow even though i got my period and im only 5'5?

I spent 4 and a half years making work my priority, in the last 10 months that changed and personal things became more important. Now my personal life rules my world its affecting my ability to work at my current job, should I throw in my job which I can't handle anymore so I can sort out my personal life. I fear if my job gets any worse or I can't offload some of my responibilities I'm going to end up 6ft under. I do like my job some of the time and have a good boss. But its time for me to live my life, but will throwing in my job ruin my life? Which one is more important?

It seems very unnerving that they call that that it isn't very good what do you think.

Please dont tell me to just see a doctor... im just looking to see if there are any others out there that have had the same symptoms as me...

Ok so I have about 1 week til my period comes... today I woke at noon and felt okay, but at 3 i all of a sudden felt exhausted and slept for a few hours... i woke up still feeling exhausted, achy, but not sick, had some cramping, and found a very small amount of blood in my vaginal discharge earlier...

My question is, has anyone ever had something like this happen and what was it linked to?
