I have heard that drinking grapefruit juice everyday helps to reduce the risk of kidney-stones.

Is this true?

Or anything else that reduces the risk?

I have bipolar and am looking for a good book to read to my 4 year old who has been asking questions lately. The books I find are about parents refusing treatment. I am stable and fight to remain healthy but sometimes have bipolar moments. I want a book that will talk about why I am sometimes a little crabby and why I need my meds, etc.

Ok, to start out with, please please please please please don't think I'm doing this to get out of school, because I'm not. My friend is doing a science project on fevers, and when I told him about this website, he asked me if I'd ask around for him. He read by someone on the internet where you can get a fever by wearing wet socks to bed, and wanted me to confirm this for a report he's doing.

I had a procedure done called Essure. This is supposed to be considered a permanent souce of birth control that does not require surgery or hospitalization. It is reversable, but it requires surgery to remove the tubal inserts. I need more information about the reversal procedure, and how much it costs.

I'm 13. I have many of the symptoms. It takes me forever to fall asleep at night. I usually don't wake up in the middle of the night, but when I do, I can't go back to sleep. I fidget constantly. I have lost interest in many of my favorite activities. I hate being around my family and participating in family activities. I have trouble concentrating in class. I feel horrible all of the time. It's not like normal sadness, and I can't seem to understand what's causing it. If I am depressed, shouldI get help? Based on the information given if I do have depression, how would you rate it on a scale of 1-10? I've never felt like this before. If not depression, what is it? I've felt this way for over a year. It lasts long after two weeks.

This is going to be an extremely long question, so please hold all answers until I say I'm done. Alright: Well, lately, I've been stressing a LOT. I'm going to try to sum it up into groups for you to better understand.

Parent's divorce: About a year ago, my parents got divorced, and as you can imagine, that was tough on my 12 year old sister and I (I'm a guy).

Dad: My dad was against the idea and hates my mom for it, venting his anger by telling us in the car all the reasons why he hates her.

Mom remarried: My mom got remarried about a month ago to a nice guy who I'm proud to call my stepdad, but this was unusual to me.

Finances: We found out only a week before school started that we couldn't go to our Christian school for life, a big shock for us.

Mom pregnant: I found out only today that my 41 year old mom is going to be having another baby, this deeply shocked my sister and I. My sister is still coming to terms with reality here.
