Health - 9 August 2007

I'm 23 and I'm having abnormal periods. Currently the period I'm having now has/is going on for OVER a month. I've gone through countless super tampons, super plus tampons, and pads. For years I've fought with my period, I'd have really bad ones or go months without one. They put me on birth control to have my period and so it'd be regular. They then put me on Metformin thinking I possibly have PCOS. Things were fine for a couple months and now my period just won't stop. What should I do? There are NO trustworthy doctors here, they'll recommend a hysterectomy and I'm too young for that. I live in a tiny town with no good doctors. There are no good gyno's here. What should I do? Go to the ER? Go to a doctor? Has this happened to anyone else? What do I do? I'm not having sex. I haven't done anything to injure myself in order for this to happen. I don't know what to do anymore. Any help is needed. Can ANYONE help?!!! I'm at my wits end!!!

I just got a full set of braces off and the dentist told me to wear my retainers all the time. Do you think I could get by with only wearing them at night?

lets say you have a mole (birth mark) somewhere, and co-workers always stare, not a constant stare, but when you say hi or whatever, they are looking at (mole or anything) it may be a quick glance, but they never get their fill, what's up witrh the mo fo's? And am I too self conscious? Even if I am, it still tics me, that people do, it's like they don't respect you.....(anger building up)

My girlfriend and love of my life has had to have surgeries that make the size of my penis (above average size) uncomfortable for her. Are there any natural penis reduction solutions?

I am scheduled to have the surgery in a month, it has been a long process. I would like to hear from people who have had it or have research on it.

I was diagnosed with diabetes two weeks ago, and I'm taking 50 units of lantus every night at 11pm. Last night an hour after taking my lantus I checked my blood sugar and it was 46 which is way too low, I think they have me on too high of a dose, I'm afraid that at night my blood sugar is going to drop to dangerous levels (I'm not overweight). My next appointment with the doctor isn't until the 20th, any advice is appreciated.

It hurts really bad, and it is becoming more and more painful to breath? Are there any doctors in the house?

2007-08-09 17:28:59 · 2 answers · asked by WINGS 4 in Pain & Pain Management

My house is trying to kill me, I'm sure of it now. Everytime I'm in my house I start feeling sick. Like I get a sore throat, stuffed up nose and start feeling kind of dizzy.

Anyone have any clue what it could be? And what can I do to help it?

I'm not allergic to anything other than codeine and the metal nickel. So I don't think it's just "allergies" like people keep telling me.

I'm having my first ever birthday party on Saturday and while I don't normally start my cycle until around the 17th, I'm getting my cramps early and I know for a fact that I'll start within the next 2 days. I have endometriosis and every single month about 4 days before I start my period, I get really bad cramps. This is how I KNOW it's going to happen. And knowing my luck...it'll be Saturday afternoon.

I really want to delay my period for at least a day or 2. I can't wear tampons and we're supposed to be swimming, etc. PLUS I'll be in sooooo much pain. I don't have insurance and I'm NOT on the pill. I need emergency help, quick. Have any suggestions?

Lately I've been getting pressure in my eyes. Now I will admit, I do look at the computer screen a lot, but I haven't been doing it as much as I have in the past. The pressure is very irritating, and when it worsens, it goes straight up into my head and I get just a terrible headache. I've been diagnosed with migranes in the past, but I've never had any pressure in my eyes. Any ideas on what this is? Thanks.

I know I need to lose weight, & I eat a lot because based on past experiences, I fear passing out again if I portion my food. I alway feel like I gotta eat 2 burgers or 4 slices of pizza or 4 donuts to get full. Or 2 bowls of cereal. Or 3 servings of whatever regular table food. I know this isn't healthy, & I wanna change my diet, & I always feel like fruits & veggies don't help in filling me up. & when I was a kid, we used to drink punch with lunch & dinner, & now every time I drink WATER with a meal, my stomach starts to hurt. But I do drink water in between meals. & I ALWAYS have to have something to drink with whatever I'm eating or else I'll feel like I'm choking.

Vomiting black (I don't know anything more specific than that), dehydration to the point that the doctors had to insert an IV into the head because all other veins could not safely take one. Some type of blockage of the colon. Please someone draw a diagnosis of this. This is real it's happening to a 1 year old girl that we know as of right now.

I dunno, maybe I overdoesed? I can barely type. My mom won't talk me to the hospital, and she thinks it is normal. Is this normal? What can I do? Thanks

The "burning" sensation is felt around one of my breasts, near the nipple area and also more at the bottom half of the breast than the top.
It also feels slightly warm.

I checked it and it doesn't seem like a bug bite, or anything else I can think of.
I've recently finished my period, however, could that be the problem?

I just want to know if it's anything I should be extremely worried about...
any good advice is appreciated.
Thanks.

its been 2 years and 2 months since i had it on and my teeth are gradually getting straight... i needed braces because my teeths were overcrowded due to my small jaws and so i had to pull out 4 teeths prior to getting my braces... so i did and it is getting better... BUT the thing is my alignment is not good..my left side is nice but i cannot bite down on my right side because it seems like the lower jaw is shifted more to one side and and my bottom teeth is still crooked and its hard to explain it but its prettyy noticible..and my ortho is saying he is going to take off my braces KNOWING that its not finished, and his reason is " THIS IS ALL I CAN DO.. NOT EVERYONE'S TEETH IS PERFECT" wtf? and i consulted a different orthodontist and he said it is FIXABLE so is it possible to sue my ortho for his unfinished job?? i really dont know what to do... if i can get partially my money back, then thats all i would ask for.. but if he says he cant do that, then can i sue him? please help me!
