I work a 12 hour night shift, full time. People constantly are bringing in junk food, and I have very poor self control especially with high sugar foods. I feel like once I have one item, then I can't control myself. I never had this problem until I started this position. In two years time I have gained 10 pounds. Any advice how I can control this?

Is there a specific time frame that you have to smoke for in order to "qualify" to get cancer??

Have periods 2 weeks apart every second cycle - for past 8 months now.
Initial investigations have negated abnormal growths, fibroids, pregnancy etc, and hormone levels do not indicate I'm peri menopausal.
HELP !! Any information from other women who have experienced the same (and are peri menopausal or menopausal) would be great help!
I'm just about beside myself, and the doctor must be thinking I'm making it all up !

I've read a little bit about colloidal silver and it seems like cool stuff. I've been wanting to get into taking it but then my homeopathic pharmacist said it might be a good supplement for my dog (long story, but it started with an animal homeopathic practitioner). I'll probably take it myself as well. But there are a few things I forgot to ask.

So...
* Are there any instructions for taking colloidal silver? Should it be with a meal, by itself, after a meal, before a meal? It's easiest to give it to my dog with his dinner but not that hard not to.
* Do most people take it every day, or only when you need it, or a few days on and a few days off?
* Has anyone ever used the home colloidal silver maker? Does it work?
* Anyone have any other tips or advice about colloidal silver? Any personal miracles about what this stuff can do?

It's nearing the end of the week, meaning I haven't gotten enough sleep for a few days now. I had a soccer game a few hours ago and now I'm exhausted, but I still have loads of homework to do. Any suggestions? (other than go to sleep and coffee)

I've been sick since the week of the 13th in August. I've visited the doctor twice since then, and she's prescribed me with medicines for a sinus infection both times. She gave me amoxicillin the first time and something like azythromax a few days ago. I've been taking the medicine for 3 days so far out of the 5 I'm supposed to, and my sinus symptoms have completely went away, but the sore throat that was barely existant before is now UNBEARABLE. My glands are so swallen that you can see them in my throat through my skin. I feel like my face is pushing on my ears, and my ears have been ringing for the past few days and my ear canal feels like it's swelling shut. I've drugged myself up on everything possible, from Tylenol PM to Motrin to Brometane, and NOTHING has made me feel the least bit better. I've been doing the obvious things like eating popsicles all the time and drinking tea but they only provide SLIGHT relief and ONLY when I'm eating or drinking it.Should I go to the hospital?

I'm in my twenties and nearly every month for at least a week I get very depressed, think about suicide, truly believe I've never been happy in my life (which is odd because the mood is so short lived) and experience mad anxiety sometimes even strange thinking and paranoia due to my hormonal cycle (and perhaps other problems). I'm prone to episodes of depression as well that do last months at a time and I've been on meds for and let me tell you the PMS doesn't help, but am not currently. This has been going on since I started my period and was much much worse as a teenager. Although I do recall months of depression prior to puberty when I was about 7 or 8 years old. (my mother said I was attention seeking)

Great really, my only support is my partner who has to deal with my mood swings and anxiety issues too which isn't really fair to him. I'm not in the position to take medication at this time, so what are some ways to deal with my mood this week and remind myself to wait it out.

For the last 2 years I have had these flare ups of small blisters on my hands that itch like crazy. They seemed to stay in the same general area at first (index fingers) but have been spreading slowly. I noticed this summer when I swam in a chlorinated pool they went away for a while. What do I have and how do I treat it?

where do i begin? i moved to another state with my boyfriend immediately after graduating college and I've gained back all the weight i lost before moving and I'm losing it. i have a house, a good job, dogs, cats, a new car, a great guy; I'm living the life. But i still feel like I'm missing something. I've started crying a lot lately; even crying at work! {embarrassing} so I've come to the conclusion that i must be going through some sort of mid-life crisis. Honestly, I think the real problem is that i don't have any friends here. Being a girl, there is that certain bond that you just don't get from a male... the type that lets you know, it's ok if you've gained a little weight, you still look beautiful.... women, you know this.... guys just don't do the same thing... I'm lonely; i feel like I'm at the age where it's not possible to make new friends, not the kinds you have for a long time through high school and college. I almost don't even know what type of friends i want. help!!!

i had this little bump on my top eyelid a few months ago. it got itchy every now and then but i just ignored it thinking that it'll go away. about a month ago i woke up and it grew and actually weighed down my eyelid.

then it turned into a rash and its starting to peel and it sores and itches like hell. i know, it sounds disgusting.

should i go to a regular doctor or should i go to a eye doctor? i need help! i don't have insurance so i don't want to go to a doctor and have him refer me to go to another doctor and waste more money than it is.

I read a book where the main character was describing her experiences with Bulimia and she said that she stole a lot of her binge food...and in the whole time she was bulimic she had stolen thousands of dollars worth of food...then it spread to other things and she stole thousands of dollars worth of other things..all stemming back from bulimia. She also said she would spend hours walking up and down grocery store aisles and that she spend more time at grocery stores than she did with friends and family. She also said she had been to nearly every restaurant, grocery store and convenience shop in her town. Had thrown up in buckets, corn fields, trash cans, boxes, showers, lakes-- anywhere she could do it privately and conceal the vomit. She said no one ever saw her binge/purge and if someone had in the middle of it, she would have killed herself out of embarrassment. She said she had probably thrown up enough in her lifetime to fill up a lake!! Is this possibly true! I guess I'm shocked

I smoked Marijuana for over 10 years and have had hypothyroid issues, especially my (TSH) levels. I quit 2 months ago and do not plan to use ever again. Im wondering if my Pituitary gland function will return to normal, or is the damage done for good. Im in health care but have no real good resources for this question, so I thought I would take a chance here.
