I'm 32 years old. It's just a little grey on the sides. Am I too young to dye my hair back to a healthy look or is it more common than I think?

I am a diabetic that is currently using an insulin pump for my diabetes management and I have insurance but the insurance that I have does not cover the extra costs with the pump supplies, which is huge. I am not the only one with this issue I am sure. My fear is that I will have to stop using the insulin pump because of the cost which will take away the one thing that has made me feel like a normal person again or as close to as can be. I feel that there are companies making huge amounts of money from the people that have diabetes whom have no other choice but to make them richer because if they don't they die, there just seems to be an imbalance there. So please if there is any one out there that might have any ideas that can be done with this unfair imbalance of the american way.

I'm quite attractive but would be so much prettier if I could stop squeezing and picking my spots. I know it's a bit gross to talk about but it feels like i've got an OCD or something.

I've tried everything i can think of. Any suggestions?

What have your experiences with radiation tattoos been like? I have them on my neck and chest, and some people are rude enough to ask if it's dirt or a zit. It kind of angers me. Have you had them removed or covered up with a real tattoo? Have you had anybody be rude about them? Where are they (the tats, not the rude people)?

In his book he states that if you join his website you can find out how...so I did. Once I joined I looked it up and it just sends you to another page to buy a $25 book on how he quit. I feel a bit ripped off and wondered if anyone knew his secret. I REALLY want to quit!!

I have food allergies, and react, sometimes quite badly, to a LOT of foods, as well as a lot of airborne allergens. I take Loratadine (Alavert, to be exact) every night, but I was wondering if anyone knows if it's okay to take something like a Benadryl if I have an allergic reaction to something during the course of the day?

I've heard it is worse for adults to get braces. I got the clear ones on both the top and bottom yesterday. I find it's impossible to eat anything but Jell-O. My molars hurt so bad. My teeth are VERY crooked though, could that be why I'm in so much pain? I don't have any sores (yet).

Recently i noticed a large lump on one of my testis. It doesnt hurt at all. I'm scared to believe it may be cancer. Now i suffered a torsion about 4 months ago but it was the other testi. I had minor surgery and everything went fine. I was able to keep both testis, none had to be removed from the surgery. Now i noticed the lump. The lump is pretty big but i dont know if its a result from the surgery or cancer and the lump is not hard, it seems to be pretty soft. Also with the surgery they performed 3 different ultrasounds so i'm thinking, wouldnt anyone have noticed it if it was indeed cancer? Also it does not seem to sort of "in" my testicle. When i touch it, it seems i can like slide it around on my testicle but once i stop it goes right back to its normal position. Does anyone have info that could help me out? And how big are the lumps that are associated with cancer? Thank you for the help and please contact me or respond to this question if you have any answers.

A guy i used to work with got stopped by a policeman because he had a screwdriver sticking out of his head.
He had no idea he had been stabbed, it had ruptured his brain. An odd chap.
