Health - 23 September 2007

I have a friend who is extremely skinny. She's 5.2" and weights 97 lbs but she has cellulite on the backs of her upper thighs and stretch amrks on her buttocks and the backs of her knee. I don't get it. I'm 5.5" and I weight 120lb and we both don't work out and I don't have cellulite or stretch amrks. I don't understand. I thought only people who gained alot of weight rapidly got stretmarks like in pregnancies. She's too skinny, and she hates her legs. What could she do? Her mother who doesn't know she has this problem bought her a bunch of short shoerts and she wants to wear them, but she wants to get rid of the cellulite and stretch marks. What can she do?

btw, she does not have fatty foods or any red meats in her diets. she only eats vegatables, fruits, pastas and white meat.

I've had IBS for 4 years and have been on Zelnorm previously. I'm at point again where I can begin a new treatment and I'm looking to hear from other IBS patients on what they use or do. I've read a lot about using certain homeopathic treatments (such as herbs, psychiatrists and chiropracters). Basically I want to hear what everyone else uses and how well it works for them personally.

I have IBS with severe bloating, pressure pain, constapation and diarrea all complicated by menstrual cycle and stress.

I have tried the diet and it doesn't work at all for me.

I have noticed that I do not ejaculate with as much force as I used to. I am forty now. When I was younger and I masurbated, my semen would spurt out onto my chest and shoulders, but now, unless i wait for a week or so, it hadly squirts at all. It just sort of runs out of my head. The quantity is still fine and decent.

Also, when having sex, I don't feel that it really shoots out inside. I am try for a kid with my new partner and I am worried that if my spunk does not really gush out I won't be able to get her pregnant - I have had a test for semen quality and my count is high.

is there anything wrong, or is there anything I can do to get more powerful ejaculations?

So i woke up yesterday with a sore throat. I tried to treat them with Cepacol. I didn't think anything about it because I just figured it was a sore throat cause I had been around smoke and that it would go away today. Now this morning just the left side of my throat hurts. I've tried to sooth it with Cepacol but nothing works. Is it strep? BTW. I'm going to the doctor soon but just wanted to know what everyone else's opinion was.

I suffer from migraines. I don't get them often but since our air conditioning went out I have noticed more headaches. Yesterday as the day heated up my headache became worse. I have prescription Imitrex and took one but it didn't help (that was a first) As the day cooled my headache lessened. At the end of the day it was completely gone. At times I would get cold chills and my head would absolutely pound. Could my headache be heat related?

I think I strained a muscle around my right scapula 3 day ago when I was trying to get out of the back of my van with a sudden move. Since then, I have a muscle pain from that area. Muscle pain aside, what really hurts is breathing. I suffer a great amount of pain when I take a deep breath or when I sneeze. This problem was never present before the injury. Do you think I should go see a doctor or should I just rest?

I'm about to finish my first week on the birth control pill, and I can't help but notice that my period is a bit LONGER now that I'm taking it.

It usually lasts no more than five days, but I'm going on six now. I thought I was done with my period yesterday, so I stopped "plugging it up" (excuse the graphic-ness). But I woke up this morning a bloody mess.

Is this normal? Don't get me wrong, the flow is slowing down, but why is it seemingly longer?
