It is not like the old days where they had to grind powder to make pills, or mix solutions, to make a prescription.

I see them them behind the counter at the grocery store, walking around andtalking, then disappear for a while.

Don't they have little printers that print the label, and while that is going on, they can go to the automated dispensor and fill the bottle with a press of a button?

Last night I went to a club with my boyfriend and my friend. My friend was pretty drunk when we got there and she met up with 2 guys and I sat with them. She leaned over and asked if I wanted to do E and I said no and said she shouldn't either. I went to find my bf to tell him I wanted to leave and she dropped 2 caps while I was gone. She refused to leave with me and wanted to stay with them and get a ride home from them. I wasn't going to let that happen so I had the bouncers kick the 3 of them out. I stood back for a bit and when I went outside my bf was trying to get her out of those guys truck and she was putting up a fight even when I tried to talk to her. She finally came w/ us and my bf stayed until 3:30 at my place cuz I'd never seen some one on E and he told me what to expect for the rest of the night and stuff. She's in from out of town and when she's able to finally talk seriously, I'm going to have a long talk with her. What do I say?

Let's say a barber was cutting my hair and at the end he quickly shaves the back of my neck, and the sides of my face with a straight edge razor (he also used hot shaving creme with it). He wipes off my neck and puts on some sort of rubbing alcohol on afterwards. He cleans the razor by washing it in the sink for a few seconds and wiping it off with a towel. Is this enough to consider it sanitary? There were a few tiny shaving cuts afterwards...would the alcohol applied on me afterwards be enough to kill off any sort of disease?

My son went to the doctor last week and they did a CBC on him. On friday the doctor called me and told me that he had a low WBC. His was at 4.0 and the normals are between 5.0 and 16.0. I went to the doctors office and obtained a copy of the CBC and differentials, but this is all greek to me. The absolute neutrophils were also low, they were 1080 and the norm is between 1500 and 1800. The doctor told me to bring him backin for another cbc in 2 weeks and that the low wbc could mean he has a viral infection or it could be an early sign of leukemia, I am freaking out, I don't want my baby to have to go thru treatments for cancer, somebody please tell me what to do. Should I be worried, what should I be looking for, watching for, Is there any testing that we can do in the mean time to find anything else out. I am paincked. Please Help.

They won't go to the public high school parents made them go to...and the next resort to making the teenagers life a lot better is to homeschool because the high school gives the teenager severe panic attacks and depression? So would you kick your kid out when you knew they get incredibly scared socially and become very depressed all the time? Or would you try to understand why they wouldn't want to go to that school?

i woke up this morning with pain in one of my nipples.. it is a sharp pain to the touch. the breast isn't sore, and the other nipple doesn't hurt at all, either.

could it just be because i ran into something last night? or could it possibly be pregnancy symptoms? and why is only 1 of them sore?! help!

I have awful, thick wiry hair under my navel, and it gives sick satisfaction to pluck them, as the roots are a good 3-4 mil long, nevermind the hairs which can get up to 2cm long each. (Thankfully there's only about... eight? Nine of them.)

I just plucked one of them after shaving most of them (it was barely half a mil above the surface, but I got it), and there were two roots. Out of one follicle.

Have I made some kind of mistake? What the hell?

OK, on "Talk Sex with Sue", she always advises against having sex in water (something about the water being forced into the vagina and infecting your fallopian tubes or something like that), as it is dangerous and potentiall deadly. I am willing to take Sue's word for it, trust her, and follow her advice. However, lots of people have sex in water all the time. My question is, has anyone ever known anyone personally who suffered any kind of problems related to having sex in water? I am just curious how much it happens.

Went boating over 3 weeks ago, got poison ivy rash that showed up one week after trip. I have had this rash now for 3 weeks and new little bumps keep popping up in other areas on body and they itch.
In my research, I have discovered it is poison ivy. I am allergic to poison oak but never been in contact with the ivy.

Any ideas to get rid of the rash besides calamine lotion?
