I just had surgery on the 31st of August & I got 6 weeks paid LOA for that, but I am really stressed out & do not feel like I can go back to work at this point. I am due back on the 14th of October. I did talk to my primary care DR & she will only give me 1 week written excuse. I had asked her for 2 months. I need some suggestions. I am not even sure I need to use my DR. but I was trying to go that route. So, anyone that can help with some good advice, please respond.

Is it weird that I want birth control pills just so I can stop my periods? Will the doctors give me birth control pills just because I want to get rid of my periods and if so what happens when I go into the doctors office.

My father was recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. We all knew this was bound to happen because of the history in our family (my dad, his brother, 3 of his sisters, his dad, his dad, and so on). My grandpa suffered immensily from diabetes in his old age. I don't want my father to do the same but as I don't live at home with him, I can't really follow up on his habits. However, I am pretty positive I will end up with diabetes as well. I really don't know what to avoid in my diet and I'm starting to work out. No one in my family is overweight. We actually are all tall and skinny in our family so I'm not sure what we are doing wrong. I guess any information to help me and my father avoid suffering the same way my grandpa did would be great.

One thing that might be a major problem is that I drink Makers Mark and coke on a regular basis....its my favorite drink! If this isn't good for diabetes is there a tasty alternative when hanging with my friends at the bar?

It appears to me that I have to take Provera (10 pills) in order to get my period. Who takes something else besides that?

please dont make fun of this please i really need help!!
my nose starts small at the beggining of it and then it starts getting wider as it goes down

it really does start really small and it gets wider as it goes down, i mean not like other noses not like the basic shape of the nose(i know that the basic shape of the nose is like that but trust me my nose isnt like that its too small at the top and its not straight it has like a bump on it

and because that its too small from the top i was wondering why and i kind of got to this
(please dont make fun of this)
when i was about 10-11 years old i used to wear glasses and my glasses where really tight on the top of my nose
and before i wore glasses my nose didnt look like this
i was wondering if my nose got small at the top beacause the glasses were very tight that they left some marks on my nose, or maybe because my glasses were really tight that maybe when my nose was growing because they were tight at the top the rest of my nose grew and got wider exept for the top because i wore tight glasses
is that really possible?????
is it why??????????
i still wear glasses but not tight ones actually i stopped wearing them about a month ago
if i start wearing contacts will the marks of the glasses on the side of my nose go away????
and could my nose get bigger at the top?????

pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!!!!?????
i really need your help
i have really been soooooooooooooooooo worrried about my nose
i'm afraid that i may have affected my nose because of my stupid glasses(the ones that were tight on my nose)

please don't make fun of my question i know its weird
please any useful comment is really appreciated

I had cataract surgery on both eyes just over a year ago. A few weeks ago I noticed my eyesight is very poor again. It almost seems to be going in the same direction it did when I first started getting cataracts.

Its hard to drive at night, halos around lights etc, having a really hard time seeing up close, even with glasses.

I know that the seeing up close part may be just me needing to update my prescription, but the rest of it?

I was told when I had the surgery they wouldnt recurr but now Im wondering if that is not true. I read something briefly a week ago that says they can recurr.

I am trying to eat healthier. No cheese etc. Now I want to know is the fat from Mayo or the sugar from Ketchup worse. It looks like a tbsp of mayo is 90! calories. Ketchup I dont remember I just remember sugar being on there. I know moderation and I don't plan on using a lot but if you can enlighten me on what is less or good substitute sauces I can use that would be great.

Does your menstruating cycle synchronise with other females around you (freinds/co-workers/mom/ sisters etc) ?

I have heard this hypothesis about how it's the pheromones that cause this. But I think that if it's possible to shift your cycles that way, then it should be possible to mentally control your cycles as well.. don't you think so? We should be able to postpone it or restrict the duration of flow and stuff like that, Right?

So my question actualy is... Has anyone been able to VOLUNTARILY control/restrict/skip/ prolong their cycles?

It kills bacteria. If someone has a viral infection, I don't know whether antiseptic mouthwash is all that helpful.
