I've incidentally stepped on the cotton that had blood on it(it was on the street floor), and than I've touched my shoe(at the same place I've stepped and than I've touched my eye) is it possible that i got HIV? i know this may sound stupid but I'm really scared....

I am trying to be a donor for kidney transplant. Ive successfully passed every evaluation examination but they keep telling me that my blood pressure is of "concern". Doctors say I am healthy and fit, but don't know why my bp is 128/90. Is this too high? What might be the maximum bp a 25/m/6'/170# should have? Might they feel the need to reject me as a donor for such a bp reading?

So I started working at Mobil on Tuesday and my stalker person came in and I freaked out. I came home and still wasn't asleep by fou in the morning. Then I went back yesterday and worked and he came in again and I freaked out. I was going to wait on him but then the person who was training me seen the look on my face and came and rescued me. I went and told my boss yesterday about this guy and how I didn't feel safe becuz of him and she told me that he was a regular for more then 10 years and that she can't just bann him. I either had to find a way to get used to it or I had to quit. I've been talking to this person who works at a shelter and some other people and all of them told me that my safety should always come first so if I didn't feel safe that I should quit. I didn't want to quit but I did. And now I regret it. I feel as if I should be over it. What is wrong wtih me?? I have to lie to my parents about not having a job anymore cuz they wouldn't approve of quiting for that....

I know someone who may have Alzheimers. She's in her early 60s. She forgets simple tasks that she's been doing for years. She's easily agitated and overreacts to any type of stress. I don't mean an occasional brain f()rt or a bad day. I mean crying at work because she couldn't fill out a simple requisition form even though she's filled out many of them over the years. This has been getting increasingly worse for the last few years. She's going to lose her job because she can't do her job anymore.

This woman is the sole care giver for her nearly 90 year old mother. I don't think she's capable of caring for her mother any more. Without a job I don't know what's going to happen to them. They have no other relatives. Is there a way I could anonymously report her to DHS or something so that someone with authority will look at the situation? I hate to think of two helpless old ladies but I'm not a relative and have no standing in this matter.

've been going through extreme depression lately and with school starting back up today it seems to getting worse. I just keep thinking about suicide and how I don't want to go on anymore. I went to the doctors and they didnt seem to take my depression to seriously. They gave me these pills that didn't do anything. I told my mom I'm depressed and she didn't take me serious either. My parents will be gone for the next few days so I have to go on like this for a couple days like this. What should I do. Just tell my mom I'm megadepressed and demand to go to the doctors?

I thought to myself, this is it, i'm done. Went to the doctor (actually urgent care) and he called it pleurisy. I have never heard of it. I must of pulled a muscle doing something. Well after getting home I did remember I started a new position at work. One of my duties is lifting a trash can full of newspapers. I have another go with me due to it being heavy and all.

I have obviously beaten the habit because I am wearing Invisalign and therefore there is no way i can bite my nails. My nails are extremely short compared to a person who doesnt bite their nails. And they are in a really weird shape.

So i just was hoping to maybe stubble upon a really smart person that could explain to me why men are cursed with such over powering manly odors? I mean here's the deal and im not alone in this. I shower, twice a day..really well. I use lever 2000. I scrub the hell out of my body. I wash my poo hole and my balls really well but as soon as i get out dry off ..within an hour or so i can smell those manly odors coming from down yonder... its very odd! I have talked to and read alot about men ... i know that we have stronger odor then females..but why? I hate that my balls and *** smell like HELL if i miss one of my showers....Who else is experiencing this? DONT lie guys, you know you have a smelly ***/balls by the end of the day.

I've been visiting the chiropractor 1-2 times a week just to keep my neck and back pain in check. I also like to work out including running, ab exercises, etc. I was planning on going to the gym before my adjustment and then just thought it might be better to do it the other way around because I know that the muscles in your neck have to heal after an adjustment. So- would it be better to work out after my neck's been adjusted? Thanks for the knowledgable answers.

I say realistic because i remember in heath class, the idea was beaten into our heads that if you smoked even one cigarette you would die a horrible death.

So any real heath concerns. REAL.

Is there such thing as nerve damage in your hands from always being poked by needles? My dad has alot of health problems and he is always in the hospital for something. He can barely grip on anything (like opening a bottle of pop or jar of pickles). Recently he had gout in his right hand. It was swollen up and he was almost crying in pain. He takes this medicine for his gout, which he doesnt like to take because it makes him sleepy. He has took it every other day for the past 2 weeks. Today he was went down for a nap at 3-4 and got up at 6-7. He isnt sure if he took the gout pills or not today because my mom was in charge of his pills today and filling them up.

Wwll, today he claims that in his right hand he feels this "electric pain" feeling in his hand. Could it be from "diabeties, Nerve Damage, or the Gout?"

I recently had sex with a black co worker of mine who was 8 months pregnant. All I did was walk her home and asked to feel her belly. I was NOT trying to get her in bed, yet after I felt her belly she looked "flustered" and basically from then on, she practically tore my clothes off. Sex with a pregnant woman was incredible. But I feel somewhat guilt because I work with her boyfriend (the father of her incoming baby). She said she "lost her mind" and not to tell her boyfriend.

Whats weird is she NEVER came on to me before. It was like she was possesed or something. Do women who are pregnant in late stages get ultra-horny or something? Thats the question I have. Thanks.
