I have had fainting spells due to giving blood, emotional startles, etc...And in a month I am having elective surgery and I am wondering if it is safe for me to go under? And if not why? and if it is okay, how can I prepare?

Hello I am 22 years old I am living right now in Boston, MA I have advanced Keratoconus and yes I am already legally blind..and yes I can write by the computer and I can read since this disease I have it from my 4 years old and or have my own method to be able to see a little bit... I write this to know if there's any doctor in the area or someone who knows of about a place, commission or research that can help me at least to try to see something My Dr. has tried to put to me toric lenses but none of them fit me, I already know that i need a cornea surgery but the Dr. dont want to do it for me because he says that im too young for that... I am looking for this because im too desperate and the anguish to be like this.. I hope that somebody has a good heart and it helps me, since I have a 11 months baby and been dreaming to see his little face in the first time in my life soon
Thanks
Kiumy...

I have suffered from random and bad ance breakouts on my face. They are usually quite large sore-looking places. And turn into scabbed sores. I have been to the dermatologist several times, but none of the ointments or pills they give helps. Are there any home remedies or suggestions to help prevent my breakouts??

This guy on utube email me asking 4 my myspace page and I said I don't give it out until I get to know the person I only have people I know on it like my friends from school. So I said no cuz ur utube page says ur 19 am 16 and I don't want to get u in trouble. So he emails me back says he is 17. I get a weird felling from this person he will not leave me alone. My mom said no myspace page or utube but I did it anyway so I can't tell her cuz I don't want to be in trouble what can I do to make him leave me alone. I'm a really nice person I hate being mean he keeps saying this send me ur myspace am 17 not 19

Is a glucose level over 106 mg/dl after only 4 hours (not 8) of fasting cause for concern in someone who tested 91 mg/dl seven months earlier after fasting overnight (approximately 10 hours)? Generally, anything over 100 can be prediabetic, but both WebMD and the American Heart Association website say that this test requires eight hours of fasting. In this case, (91 after overnight fast in January, followed by 106 after four hour fast in August), (a) should it be assumed that the reading after the longer fast is more valid and the reading after the shorter fast is high because of too short a fasting period, or (b) is the increase of 15 mg/dl too much to attribute to fasting for only four hours, and evidence that the level is rising at an average rate of approximately 2 mg/dl per month.

This is in a 33-year-old white male, 5'6", 142 lbs at the first test, 134 lbs at the second test, nonsmoker, BP 128/76 at first test and 105/60 at second.

Ok so im 20 and still a virgin, looking like that might change soon (all contraception and everything is all sorted :) ) However, i was wondering, what exactly is the woman meant to do during sex? Like when youre thrusting you pelvis up and down and the guy is penetrating, are u mean to like..."squeeze, release, squeeze release" your vagina round his penis? Sorry if thats not very clear, done my best to try and convey what i mean! So i guess to cut a long story short, what exactly does the woman do during sex!? Thanks :P

Do any of you out there in Yahoo-land have bad side effects from taking BP medication? I am talking about extreme muscle weakeness in arms and legs, and extreme tiredness? Have you had any help in changing to somerhing else that had less bothersome side effects? Is it true that an older person cannot tolerate these drugs as well as a younger person?? Thanx!

It's lemon cream and it's vegan which means it has no eggs or dairy. I think they used tofutti cream cheese which is comparable to regular cream cheese calorie/fat wise. Anyway, obviously I don't know the nutritional information for the pie but I am assuming that a slice can not be 19 points so if I don't eat anything else but this, I will be ok. Do you agree?

Ok girls, i am 16, and i am wondering about brown liquid. There is this strange brown liquid coming out of my vagina as if it was blood or discharge from my menstral cycle. But i dont think its blood because it doesnt have any red in it at all. It kind of looks like hershey's chocolate syrup actually. It has been coming out more than i have had regular discharge for like, 2 months now. But it sure does stain my underwear just like blood. I dont think its old blood, because i have had that before and its nothing like that. Oh boy! Do any of you know what this brown thick liquid is???

We all know that there is such thing as drinking too much water.. but no one seems to point out how much is too much.
I want numbers.

Are women the only sufferers of HPV? Are men affected or are they just carriers? I've seen alot of commercials and articles about it and how it relates to women but never read anywhere if it affects men.
