Health - 23 May 2007

Well summer is approaching, and I am allergic to almost all insect bites/stings (wasps, ants, mosquitoes, other bugs). Whenever I get stung by a mosquito the entire area swells up; if its my arm that entire half of my arm will become swollen. What can I do to relieve the swelling and itching? Its so gross especially when I'm out at a BBQ or the beach. The same thing happens to my sister.

I heard from someone that I should take up smoking cigarettes so that when I'm frustrated or really hopeless I just smoke a ciggy and I relax, rather than let it build or hit myself. Would this actually work?

It scares me, to be quite honest. My boyfriend suggested I try masturbating with nothing but vaginal stimulation and when I would get close to orgasm, my vaginal muscles would push the toy out.
I would try to press harder but it's a lost hope. And it's very frustrating...
Please answer if you know what's going on - I've seriously searched for an answer for this everywhere and it's starting to worry me.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
my dad has cancer. Recently, he had a surgery and a part of his colon was removed due to a little tumor. The main problem was he had an overdose of Imodium, so his peristaltic movement had stopped, and that's why he actually had to have a surgery. That was 2 weeks ago.
Last week, he's discharged from the hospital. Until this moment, he's not able to eat, only a spoonful or two everytime. And he won't eat rice, moreover meat or chicken. The doctor told him to eat at least 100 grams of meat/meal, so that means 300 grams/day. In fact, he hasn't eaten more than 100 grams of meat in this week. His main staple now is Proten, a soy milk with high protein and vitamins because he has a low albumin level.

He's only allowed porridge, oatmeal, or steamed rice. And meats and chicken. Also carrots, spinach, and pumpkins. For fruit, only apple.

He feels sick all the time, and barely has the energy to walk.

I feel so helpless. Please help, guys...
Thanks...

I am 5 10 and weigh 168 pounds. I started my weight loss program back in december and have lost 20 pounds already, but i am at a point now to where i cant loss weight. I quit drinking any drinks with sugar, so that means only water and a little milk in the morning for me. I also cut back on fast food and sweets. I began become more active outside and i believe that with the cutting back on sugars has got me to the point i am at now, but i still look fat. I mean i cant really tell i have lost 20 pounds. I want to know how to tone up, or if i continue my regular activity and maybe run 5-7 miles a week, will that be enough to get my muscles showing. I know resistance training is the best bet, but i live in a small town so no health club for me. Need help its almost summer and i have been very commited to this change, i mean the numbers dont lie i have lost 20 pounds. I need something extra to get me over the hump ????

I run like 3 times a week and do some weight lifting 2 times a week.

I am a 5'7" and weight about 130 lb. I have been working out for 2 months and I didn't lose a single pound, so frustrated and I feel like giving up, what am I doing wrong?

I don't eat much to be honest, only twice a day with milk+bread+egg for the morning, salad+meat+veggie soup+some fruits for the afternoon.

I also drink lots of water daily, still the same weight..:x
