I got the Mirena IUD put in on May 25, 2005. Everything went normal and I spotted for about a month after having it inserted but for over 2 years now have been period and spot free. Well, that is until today. I'm somewhat worried due to the fact that this is not the norm for me. Should I be worried or does this happen often?

I have an important flight this week, so there is no possible way to escape it. Lately I've been having off and on periods of panic attacks. I don't want to medicate myself. Sure I'll be alleviating myself but I don't want to patch up my problem. They say the mind and nature are powerful things. How can I naturally help myself? I really don't want to be gasping for air or trembling on the flight.
I have been on planes without any care or worries, until I hit 20....nerve issues.
Does Valerian work? (I've got liquid valerian droplets you can add to drinks)
Last time I tried it, I felt very sleepy...not exactly calm, but sleepy.
Any suggestions? Advice? Techniques?
Please I can't go nuts on a 2 hr flight.

I think lifting weights give you more muscle but how much does daily exorcises of punching\kicking a punching bag be worth? Is practicing with a punching bag anywhere as near being able to gain as much muscle as lifting weights? Is it better in anyway to lifting pure weights?

I noticed a small hard bump (raised and colorless) under my arm last month and it has gotten larger. It is not that big but it is now about 1 cm and oval shaped. It doesn't hurt at all but friends have told me that it could be a swollen lymph node. They also suggested I look at breast cancer websites and look for other symptoms like changes in the breast and nipple, but there are no changes or lumps. What do you think this is and do you think it will go away by itself?

For whatever reason people are constantly knocking on us big breasted ladies, for all the women out there who look like little boys and try to feel good about it, why?
Believe it or not we do not think were better than smaller women, or that were prettier, and no were not all stupid and stuck up because we have big boobs, nor are we sluts.
Ppl who make comments against big boobs should realize we have feelings to, and most ladies like me are somewhat conciouncess of our boob size.
I just had to clear that up I saw a lot of gross and offending questions that were directed with negativity to big boobed women this needs to stop.

if when you go for your appointment to get tested for it, you have all of the symptoms, but your blood sugar level is really low? Also i was told that hypoglycemia is a sign of diabetes, is that true?

thank you for answering these!

Now he's been getting really bad headaches, and even teh pain medication he takes either wares off or just doesn't seem to work at all. I'd appreciate anyone who can tell me ways hat he can get rid of his bad headaches, or at least make them a little easier for him to cope with.

All answers welcome. Thanks.

I'm an asian girl that is 4'11. My bra cup size is 38DD. I hate the fact of having big breasts because I can never find anything that fits and is my body figure doesn't look right because my lower body is smaller. I have back problems but I'm not sure if my breasts are the cause of it. What do you guys think? Help!
