When I'm hungry and I eat, I get full extremely fast. So, I don't eat that much. Now, I'm starting to throw up, which I don't understand since I barely eat. Is this a problem?

I was giving my husband oral last night, and noticed small flesh-colored bumps on the base of his penis. They did not seem 'infected' or puss-like. I also noticed a large dark 'mole-like' bump at the very base near his testicles. Is this normal? Should I be worried that he's cheating on me?

I've had it for about 7 weeks and 3 days. Instructions say to leave it in for 8-12 weeks but I had been neglecting to clean it so i decided to take it out to give it a thorough cleaning only to discover a small bump surrounding back side of the piercing. Its maybe 1/8 inch or less. Its squishy and may be filled with pus. What is this bump? In about 2 weeks I will need to remove it because I am leaving for Navy basic training. Should I just take it out now and let it get air or leave it in until the bump goes away? Will the bump ever go away? If I take it out will the area close with whatever the bubble is still trapped inside? What should I do?

How many people know what this disease is (without looking it up first)?
I'm curious, because I've had to explain this many times in regards to my mother and father. I am also exhibiting symptoms.
Thanks for your time and honesty!

I've been on Invega for 3 weeks now, and in the last week, I have become extremely irritable and down right evil... to the point that I've punched holes in my wall.
Has anyone else had this or any similar side effect?
I called my dr. this morning, and I'm waiting for him to call back.

I heard that if you scratch your scalp, you can get bugs living in your head, is this true? Could an itchy scalp be from hair spray or other products? I don't have lice and I don't even have dandruff.

Ok to be stright up with everyone.

I met someone recently that I'm very attracted to, seriously. Not just for looks but just because this person is beautiful inside and out. Last night they admitted to me that they were HIV positive.

I wasn't freaked out or anything. I was just sorry for them.

What should I do? Can some one who is negative be with a positive person if they are very careful?

If you are a woman, do you absolutely HAVE to get your blood tested during the first five days of your period? Mine won't start until about a day or so before I'm supposed to get my first dose.

Also, do you have to get your blood tested in the same town as your dermatologist?

I'm 21 and I just changed doctors. When i asked my previous doctor about getting the cervical cancer vaccine the doctor said I didn't need it because I'm not sexually active. My current doctor says I should, better safe than sorry. I can't decide. I've read the side effects and I'm a little spooked. It says fever is one of the side effects and that seems to be what happens to me whenever I get vaccinated for anything. it usually only lasts for a few hours. I've also never had a pap smear and I keep hearing that I should have them done regularly starting at 18. How important is it that I get the test and the vaccine done?

My neighbor is a troubled man and although I'm not a doctor I've got darn good reason to believe that he has a mental illness.. . my guess - Schizophrenia . My aunt had/has the same thing and he exhibits all the same signs . Lately he's under extreme pressure on his job and I think it has triggered a new level of his illness . He can be functional , totally functional it seems at times(I think he takes medication , but when really sick I wonder) but then spiral into senselessness .

My visit with him last week did not go well . He wasn't making a helluva lot of sense and eventually I just resorted to agreeing with him and attempting to change the subject to better things . It worked a little bit , but by the end of the visit more non-sensical things kept coming out of his mouth .

What Can I Do To Help Him ?
Does Talking About Positive Subjects Help ?

Thank you so much !!

do you think if I drank like a cup of water before I went to bed, that it would wake me up really early to go to the bathroom and I could force myself to stay awake?!

For those of you that have this in your past what has helped or what helps you live in this world despite such a painful past? I often feel I am just existing, not really living. There are some memories that I am afraid to explore. I have been in therapy, on meds and I journal. I used to exercise but I am to depressed to do so now. The thought of going back to therapy or groups utterly exhausts me. I feel burned out of therapy.
Therapy just frustrates me. I just want to roll my eyes and throw up my hands when a therapist says that the abuse is not my fault. I get that. It doesn't help hearing that. There just has to be something else besides therapy to help me heal! Let me know what works for you. Thanks.
