Warnings that Celebrex is giving out: Tell your doctor if you:

Are pregnant
Have a history of ulcers or bleeding in the stomach or intestines
Have high blood pressure or heart failure
Have kidney or liver problems

Shouldn't your doctor be telling YOU that you have these issues? What freaking good is your doctor if you have to self diagnose yourself???

I have tried 2 hours and less a day and no matter what amount of hours I spend on the beach, I break out in a red, bumpy, rash. If I am at the pool at home for 5 hours a day for as many days, nothing happens except a tan. What is going on?

I have been on the shot for a small amount of time and I am a little concerned about the shot. I have noticed that I am losing handfulls of hair and now when I use the bathroom I am having spoting. This only happens when I use the ladies, but it is freaking me out. Because I don't know if I will wake up to an accident. I was on the Depo before but I was having extremely strong menstraul cycle symptoms. But now I am a mother of two and a wife. I am also starting to notice that I am getting short with my husband and I don't want to get that way with my babies. I also had the Mirena and it wasn't the best thing for me either, because my husband knew it was there and it caused other problems for us sexually. Please let me know what I should do. Thanks for all your advice!

I have a cholesterol level/rating of 5.7 which is moderate to high risk. A typical day's diet:
Breakfast: a banana or oranges,
Lunch: 100% whole wheat bread w/ cheese (no margarine or butter) or 100% whole wheat bread w/ peanut butter.
Dinner: White rice w/ veggies and a meat dish (chicken wings or pork ... I don't often eat red meat) .. or some nights it's just white rice with veggies and tofu ... or white rice with spinach and salmon.
And for desert I do have a scoop of ice cream or stuff my face with watermelon.
I do snack on fruits like grapes and strawberries. I also wonder whether I can get diabetes from all this natural sugars!

Perhaps my dinner isn't the healthiest (??) but is it the cause of increasing my cholesterol levels? This year I have been pretty lazy with my workouts so past months, I've only worked out once a wk versus my past 3X a wk. Hence the weight gain ... but I'm curious about the increase in cholesterol level.
I'm 27, abt 5'5" and maybe 130-135lbs

Alli claims that you can lose 50%more weight with it than by yourself by blocking 25% of fat you ingest. Even though Xenical is twice the mg it only blocks 33% of the fat you ingest. What does that equal out to be for extra weight loss?
I came up with about an extra 66% but I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with it or talked to their dr. about it. I go see mine on Thursday and am curious about which would be better (i.e. if Xenical is worth the extra $) Please no advice on how I should go it au natural and do it on my own. My husband and I want to start a family asap and I think this would help me get down to a healthy weight before we start trying.

I ended an abusive marriage 3 yrs ago. There has been no man in my life so far. I have someone interested in me and we'll go out soon on a date. I asked my gyno which type of birth control I should go on as my ex had a vasectomy, He said no pills and prescribed some Estrace cream, Is that all I really need. I am having some premenopausal symptoms.

I just fell off my bike. I hit the curb. I have a headache because my head hit the ground, I had a helmet on. My knee also hit the ground and I have a minor scrape. I did fall on my left breast and now it's hurting like crazy. I move my arm and it hurts. Now my back is starting to hurt. I was able to to ride the rest of the way home. How long will I be hurting? Also will a bruise form on my breast?

I do not feel it is a selfish act. No one knows what is going on inside the persons mind. Life has to be pretty bad for a person to committe suicide, and if that is the only way out of a life of hellllllll then so be it. It is their life and they know what is best. They may have tried everything to resolve things and nothing worked and they could not go on living....

my friends niece had a baby born with anencephaly, which means he was born without a brain. But has a brain stem which allows breathing and heart beat. Does any one know anything about this? How long does a baby usually sustain life until it dies from this? Im just amazed, I had no idea a human body could function without a brain and just with the brain stem alone. He will never be able to do anything of course but its so sad. Hes perfect in every other way.
