I was listening to Lithium by evanescence, and it seems to be about depression. i looked up the lyrics to lithium, and there were adds on there about lithium and depression. I heard Litthium is actually a drug,but i have been wondering... Is lithium something that makes people depressed? Is it something that helps depression? Is it something like that? Or something tottally different??

I recently had a yeast infection and before I got really harsh symptoms I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend.

He hasn't had any symptoms of a yeast infection but I'm afraid he still might have one. Is it possible to have a yeast infection and not any symptoms? he itches sometimes but it's just from shaving and what not.

what should I do?

My 2 month old daughter has been sick for the past 3 days. She's got a runny nose, raspy breathing and cough, and isn't eatting or sleeping and has vomited a couple of times. She's extremely whiney. I have no clue what's wrong with her so any advice would be great!

If you have sex the the day before your period. protected sex meaning using a condom. There can be no chance of being pregnant right? . =[ don't laugh at me I'm new at this whole sex thing and I always have questions and worries.

I fell from about two feet up a few days ago, but at the time I didn't think I was hurt. A few hours later, my ankle started bothering me, so I got some ice... it ached all the next day (yesterday), so I got a compression wrap for it, and also kept it wrapped today. The aching went down a little, so I took off the wrap for an hour or so after work, but now the pain in my ankle seems to be worse. It doesn't ache anymore, but when I walk, I feel a stab of pain slightly in front of the area below my anklebone. I've wrapped it again, but is this normal? Should I be worried? (There's no swelling or bruising.)

Basically I'm feeling really warn down, by about 3-4pm i'm almost falling asleep at my desk, but hen i get a second wind at about 7 and fine again.

I'm waking up tired.

I have a good diet because i'm almost allergic to every food out there, so basically all i can eat are fruit and veg, oats and rice and meat.

I wake up naturally at about 6.30am and go to bed at about 10.00pm

I'm not sure if this is down to the fact that i started up at the gym again doing about 4 sessions a week, or because I've only just been diagnosed with the allergies and its probably my blood sugar balancing off or something, other thought is I'm not eating as much fat as i normally do because its mainly just fruit, veg and rice.

Anyone else experienced this sort of thing, and does it get better?

I've been feeling sick with an earache, headache, and body ache. I know that sometimes a bad tooth can cause an earache. If I had a tooth that was infected or otherwise bad, would it be really obvious, or can you have a "hidden" infection somewhere in the jaw without knowing it? Wouldn't my tooth have to be throbbing, really sensitive to touch or hot or cold, to have that sort of problem?

I already know that i do have the sensitivity issue, so is there so drug, or pill i could use thats on the market, thats LEGIT and works, that could slow, or stop my thinnning?.

If someone had breast cancer and went into remission for two years, then found out she had cancer in her lymph nodes...
What are the chances that this cancer is the same strain as the previous cancer? Also what are the possibilities that it is a completely different strain? What tends to be the case in most patients?
