My wife and I have been prescribed this for separate issues. She has something of an allergic reaction (feels goofy) and mine works fine (for back pain). We'd like to know the difference if there is one.

I have a phobia of hypodermic needles and injections. I'm due a jab in nearly two year's time, yet I am already anxious and worried about it. I get bad nightmares, my skin often pricks as if I've just been jabbed there, and so on. I can't stop thinking about it.

My friends at school tease me, and find it funny when they talk about jabs and I go pale, start shaking, when my knees go all weak and I can't stand properly, and when I start retching. They even caused me to faint.

All this is because of an early traumatic event. I was held down when I tried to escape... and it hurt so much, I screamed my silly head off. Now even the sight of a needle scares me.

I'd like to know why I'm so anxious, nearly two years before the jab has to be done. For those interested, it's a jab against Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Polio and Haemophilus influenzae (Hib). All those diseases are potentially lethal, but I don't know which I'd rather do - die or get a jab done.

.. Help, anyone?

i used to live with my parents but now i live with my bf and his grandma...anyway i was wondering since she is menopausal, could that affect the way my period is? since moving in with them i hardly have a menstrual cycle and it turns out i'm not pregnant after all...i know women that spend a lot of time together are usually in sync with their periods. so i figured i'm in sync with her lack of periods...

Haha!

Well we are just coming into spring here and whenever I'm at school I get really bad allergies.

I just take hayfever pills but they are annoying because I need them nearly everyday!

Any suggestions?

My mum's had MS for some time now but recently gone downhill very quickly and seriously. From a year ago, when she was able to walk short distances, she is now practically paralysed from the neck down, and losing her eysight. She's still in her 40's, but may have to go into a nursing home. This really upsets me and my dad who is on the verge of a breakdown. I've been suffering depression for the past year or so, but have been trying to hold things together. Now I'm moving across the water to go to university in a few days and the ambulance has just left the house- we had to call it for her cos she was so ill this morning. I don't know how I can travel to uni on Tuesday if she's ill in hospital and my dad would probably want to stay with her, and I have sold my car so can't get the car ferry myself. I feel so guilty at leaving them in this mess too- I don't think they can cope, and quite frankly I can't anymore. I have no family to talk to and my friends don't understand. Please help?!

I have a degerative disc in my lower back with some arthiritis from a fall down some stairs years ago. I know I have to be careful, but so want to do something to flatten my stomach. I have a hard time with walking alot because this injury affects my sciatic nerve thus pain in my legs, but I have been able to drop about 20lbs in the past couple months. Does anyone have any real suggestions and not some sarcastic remark like I usually get? Please be serious about your answers. Thank you.

Pretty much all my friends are thin and have small boobs. I'm not thin, or fat, I'm just average, but I have pretty big boobs for my height and frame.

I know it's probably just me being critical of myself, but I feel like because my friends have a completly different body type than me, I look almost slutty in comparison? I feel like anytime I wear a tighter or low cut shirt, people look at me and then look at my friends and then automatically assume I'm the easy chick. I even feel like my friends think that sometimes..

I've gotten so frustrated about it that now I mostly wear t-shirts and hoodies, and I hate going shopping because every time I try anything on I just get worried about it.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I just want to build my confidence...and get to a place where I can stop feeling ashamed of myself.
