So- I had sinustitis back in the US when i lived in New Orleans- now I live in Amsterdam, which the two are quite alot alike. I'm sneezing, my eyes are swelling and I can't breath through my nose for anything. Furthure more I haven't slept in over 2 days and I'm exhausted.
I've tried everything from over the counter medicine, to steam which helps momentairily, to menthol steam, to snorting up salt water through my nose and spitting out through my mouth and wearing vick's vapor rub on my nose or breathing in a warm moist rag. I feel Awful and all this blowing my nose is making me nausious. I get one side clear and then the other nostril fills up- I can't sleep because Ihave to breath with my mouth open and then I snore so loud I wake me up- or I choke on the mucas (yeah, I know ewww..)
If anyone has any ideas what so ever I'd be willing to try them- I just want one nights rest. Please...anything

I went to the doctor last week because of a very swollen and painful lymph node. He gave me an antibiotic to take for a week. It is still swollen today so I called him. He referred me to a surgeon. I didn't ask on the phone today, but what would a surgeon do to it? What could be a cause of the swelling? I've never had swollen glands before.

As a person who have overmasturbated almost a decade and a half of his life and has had numerous problem from it (weak sperm, weak erections, lack of concentration, probably memory weakering, etc...) I have now decided to limit myself to no more than one or two erections per month. I still do stroke myself as a part of the habit and as everyone knows it's good.

But I wan to know whether stroking myself causes release of endorphins and whether it is in the same expanse as ejaculation. Also whether stroking causes free testosterone to be used for sperm production (as in preparation of an ejaculation). Finally, for a person who wants to use most of his testosterone for fitness activities, who wants to limit his endorphine release to hopefully not overuse his adrenal glands any more and get endorphine from other activities - is stroking without erection bad for me? Or it is the erection that counts?

I've had these red dots on my legs since I can remember. They are not raised, itchy or anything like that, just ugly to look at. At first I thought it may be something to do with me shaving my legs, but when I stopped shaving for a couple of months (as I was going to have them waxed) you could still see the red dots. I also don't think they are ingrown hairs either. Any help on what it is and how to treat it would be great. Thanks in advance :)

I eat less than 2000 calories a day, but have hit a wall in my weight loss goals. I started at 220, 45 days ago and am now stuck at 211. I am 5-11 and am looking to hit 195 as my ideal weight.

I eat 2-3 meals a day, each meal between 400-700 calories. I run an average of 16 miles per week. I am not doing any other exercise besides running.

The food I eat is pretty balanced. I try to eat chicken, or fish as the main dish and have side salads for the rest of my meals. I do have one bowl of ice cream about once a week.

I take a one a day multi vitamin and three hydroxycuts each day. I consider myself to be fairly fit for a 38 year old. My body style is one of dense muscle and 195 would be perfect for me.

Anyway, I really need to push past this wall and I am in need of some serious advice because what I am doing is not working. All advise will be greatly appreciated

I have lost around 11 pounds on my diet (from December 2006 until now, around 6 months) and I am dissatisfied with my progress. Is this a good pace, or can I increase the rate in which I lose weight?

I aimed to lose another 42 pounds (a total of 53 pounds) by mid July, but I guess that is impossible now; although I do want to make faster progress.

Help will be appreciated. Thanks!
