I woke up Monday morning with a lump under my arm... it has gotten more centralized, red, and painful. I believe its an infected lympth node... I am not feeling sick, just have pain by my arm pit. Any suggestions?

There once was a woman who woke up one morning,
looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today?"
So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror
and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
"H-M-M," she said,
"I think I'll part my hair down the middle today?"
So she did and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.
"Well," she said,
"today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail."
So she did and had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair
on her head.
"YEA!" she exclaimed,
"I don't have to fix my hair today!"

Attitude is everything.

This sounds very confusing but i have met about 3-4 girls who say they had no idea they were pregnet because they would have monthly periods. I actually think its weird and dont believe them because how in the world do you not see your body change? Is this true and if so why do they still have there menstrual period?

i understand that they want you to have an empty belly, but does it really take FOUR hours for the water to leave your stomach? Especially for a 2yr old?

How long does it take to digest water?

What about breastmilk? I understand breastmilk only takes 20 minutes to digest. Shouldn't that be okay then?


Do they just say 4hrs to be safe as a liability issue since I have seen some sites that say 2hrs is okay?

My mother had a triple bypass in April and then had a heart attack sometime last week. The tropinin lvls are high, and theres minor damage to the heart.

She is young, 46, and is going through a lot so Im just trying to get information.

She's getting angioplasty on Friday since they gave her blood thinners she has to wait, and theyre going to put stents in.

Are the chances of having a major heart attack after having a small one, getting treated and a new procedure to help? Is the risk high?

I have been having panic attacks all week. I can't get anything done and going to work/school are nearly impossible without crying. I feel like I can't breathe most of the time, and I haven't really been able to eat either. I want to make an appointment to get some sort of medicine to calm me down while I work out my personal problems, but I don't know if a regular doctor can prescribe that kind of stuff.

PS. I don't have health insurance, so I can't go to a psychiatrist or anyone besides those at my school's health service.

...that has at LEAST 100lbs on you trying to offer weight loss advice? "Yeah... you chewing sugarless gum? If not, that may be your problem right there." And it's like, "Uh... I didn't get chubby by chewing Bazooka. You know what I think I'm gonna do? Not listen to your fatter as*, that's for sure." What are your thoughts?

She slept all night last night, and has been asleep all day today.

I know she's under a lot of stress. Her mother is pretty much abandoning her in Missouri, so that she can move to Florida, and she can't move to Florida for another 1-2 months, when she gets her GED, and I can't go for at least 3 months when my work can transfer me. Oh, she also has nowhere to stay. Plain and simple, her mom doesn't care, and her Aunt won't let her stay there. I don't have a place where she can stay, and so she's really stressed right now.

But I was wondering if it could be any medical disorder that I would need to be concerned about as well.

Rapid hair loss (body, face and scalp) , I am losing on daily basis, decreased memory, specially short term memory and low concentration to the point that I can’t make a normal conversation without making several pause to look for words to complete my sentences. Other symptoms are depression, low energy, anxiety and once I lose hair on one area, I see white spot remain on my skin.

What is happening to me? What I should be doing?
