Health - 6 July 2007

I have a headache, but I can only find one paracetamol and one ibuprofen in my drawer.

If I take one of each, will I get the same effect as if I took two of the same?

ok, i already asked a Q about losing weight...i'm gonna go out on a whim and say it is my diet that's keeping me from losing weight (i guess all the exercize keeps me from gaining though)
my problem is, i seem to be the only person in my group of friends that has to watch what they eat.
my best friend is 21 and looks like a 13 year old. she eats fast food for lunch and dinner and Little Debbies inbetween for snacks. my boyfriend is the same way, he's 5 foot 8 and weights about 145 lbs.
so how can i eat to lose, when everyone around me wants to go eat bad food, or make cookies, or go get ice cream? everytime i try to eat good, i feel like i'm ruining their plans for dinner...plus i have a terrible sweet tooth, and low will power!
i hate sitting in my apartment drinking Slim Fast and eating carrots alone while my friends make a Taco Bell run.

I hate those people that ask whether they're too fat when they're obviously not but I want opinions! Ok. I'm 17, about 5'4" and weigh exactly 113 lbs. Stop! Read on before you judge my stupidity. When I try hard, I'm able to get down to 108 lbs, but if I let the dieting go, my weight shoots up to 115 lbs. (I hate that.) You may be envisioning a skinny model looking person, but trust me - I don't look like I weigh that little. My thighs are....most flabby, but they're the biggest part of my body. In jeans and shorts, I look fine, even skinny, but I hate the way I look in a bikini - just because of my thighs, I am fine with my belly, back, arms, etc. Even though my arms are kind of muscular. *sigh* TMI, but do you think that I seem overweight?

Why do they keep on deleting my questions?! It's annoying! They're not even inappropriate I've seen questions that are more inappropriate than mine! My questions just consisted of guys doing "it" and stuff like that what?!

My father passed away a year ago and I am still having problems dealing with everyday life. The world keeps going but not me. I am so depressed. I was working full time and going to school full time and under so much stress that I could no longer take work so I just didn't show up for it one day, and So i got fired. I am living with a family member but all she does is yell at me and tell me that I am lazy and worthless. I can't find a job and I am so depressed I do not know what to do. I don't have any money or health insurance so i stay in bed all day. I was normal until my dad passed away. How do I get back on my feet.
what is the point of living. I have nothing to look forward to. I am in a deep black hole. I need help. but i don't know how to get it.

I've tried multiple times to put in a tampon, but everytime I try, I get it in, then get scared that it won't come out... and faint. I'm afraid that I'll never get off of pads! And, I'll never be able to swim with my period :[ It's not the putting in part that scares me, the part that scares me is taking it out. It's that one part where it feels like a suction cup [sorry about the details], and I feel like its stuck. And all this is with EXTRA SLENDER.
please help!
PS - I am really petite, and I think that I'm just too small to use a tampon...?

I just watched sicko by Michael Moore. Great movie but I just don’t understand why is so hard for the USA to have universal health care? Isn’t the drug company one way or other making a profit by selling their drugs to the government or private insurance company anyway? Maybe they can even jack up the price even more since we all know when government is paying we always add more to the price. Anyway I just don’t understand why USA can’t have universal health care or at least have the choice for poor people to have this and the richer people to choose have their own private health care system. In addition I would also like to know how this is possible: in the movie there was a case where a guy saw off his two fingers by accident, I thought in the case of emergency like this the hospital should re-attached both of his fingers no matter what, then after that tell him about the cost. I just don’t know how this works. Please help better understand these issues. Thank you!

Not that its the first thing i'd worry about, but it sure would suck if you got a cavity or something and there was no dentist around. What could you use that was on the island to keep them clean as a natural remmedy?
