Health - 11 July 2007

I have had it. Good intentions and genuinely caring about someone and their well being is over rated. Dun Da dun dun dunnn. So very done. Every time I try to lend a hand or help fix a problem, it just blows either way. Being 30 has now taught me that I am wasting my time and my feelings on other people. It causes me emotional stress and I feel like I let people down. Most of the time it works out nicely and people get exactly what I knew they would and they are happy, but it is the getting there that is the turmoil. No more reaching out a helping hand from my end, it is just not worth it. Good Samaritan I am no more, I think I have been beaten down just as much as the rest of the world is now. So if asked for directions now, I will give the only directions I know. The answer oh sorry I can't help you, but here is my sad face to make up for it. Any advice would be great. :)

I had 4 hot dogs today, two for lunch and two for dinner. I have a headache, they were Beef hotdogs too. Anyway, explain why some people who eat meat have headaches, is it the sodium in it, cholesterol, or is it something else?

before it gets started. I feel one coming on. But, I've never found anything to stop them before they get bad. I can't take the Imitrex and a few other like it...is there anything else that someone knows of?

I have the aurora starting now...I know the signs (unfortunately).
Thank you!

I have depression and i think maybe mild bipolar. Ive tried to talk to my parents and my brother, but they all said that i wasnt, that i was exagerating and that if i just was more active and didnt stay in my room all the time then id feel better. ive also tried talking to my friends about it, but they dont seem to understand. i dont know any other adults that id feel comfortable talking to. i also dont like the idea of talking to someone about it over the phone. the only thing i can do is go on-line. like this. but answers @yahoo is just for that; answers. its not a support system, not a discussion. so where can i go online to talk to people about this? do they even have forums for depression and suicide? anything would help.

I am eating wheat bread and trying to lose weight. i like to have 1 or 2 slices of wheat bread toasted without anything on it because it has carbs and the carbs will give me energy. but i also like to eat 2 more slices of wheat bread thruoghout the day toasted without anything on it, because i love bread. its whole grain, or whole wheat. whatever, it says whole on it. is it bad and hurting my diet that im eating about 4 slices of wheat bread a day?

ok so i have asked this severall times now not ever getting a good answer.heres the deal
for 3 years or more now i have been going to the doctor severall times for my sholder muscles always being tight, they are like rocks.
the doctor has given me a few options:
1. muscle relaxers -basically everyday forever
2. anti depressants - to help with the "stress thats causing the muscle to tense up"
3. physical theripy.
ok now here is my thing:
I dont want to be taking pills everyday, and i dont have the time to go to physical therapy i work 40hrs a week and i go to the beach on the weekends to relax. plus i dont have money to pay them or to keep refilling pills. plus i think that the muscle relaxers and anti depressants are just a bandaide.
I want a soulution to the problem.
I have tried massauge, in fact my boyfriend gives me a massauge every night for at least 10 min, the only relief i get from it is the actuall time his hands are on me. after the massauge it feels no diffrent.

What should we pack with us in our hospital suitcase? Also, he is a fairly heavy smoker. He wants to quit, and we have ordered an herbal remedy to help him quit that is supposed to arrive the same day as the surgery. He is going to wake up from surgery feinding for a ciggarette, but I don't think it will be wise for him to get up, go outside and smoke, especially since he is trying to quit b/c his back won't heal well if he is still smoking (as the physical therapist has told us). He hates the patch (has used it before and we have some left), but should I bring it with us to the hospital and (with Dr.'s approval, of course), slap it on him before he wakes up? Or maybe when he wakes up?

I heard that, even without the vaccine injected in you, the chance of getting TB in the US is so small there isn't much of a point to administer it in the first place. Is this true or is it just a rumor?

Is it true that testing for herpes can only be done if there is an outbreak? I was told that you can do a blood test but they are not as accurate since there are so many types of herpes. Is there someone who can explain this?
