My last pap smear from April came back abnormal and I tested positive for HPV. I'm going back to have a second test done next friday as a 6 month follow up. I am so nervous. HPV causes cancer and because my pap test was abnormal does that mean I'm going to get cancer????

Is there any organic ways to combat fleas, when they get inside of your house?? There not bad yet, the cat is being treated for them as well.

Is there some thing that can effectively be used, to rid those things from the house? some thing, non toxic? Maybe some thing, that can be vacumed up after words??

I'm 38 and female. I went to my gp last week with pain in my lower left pelvic area and they said I had a urinary tract infection.

Now a week later my symptoms aren't any better and the pain is pretty much my lower left side and up into my left side where the waist of your pants sit and also lower back pain on the left side. Pain is worse while sitting.

Now I'm afraid because the dr said he wanted me to come back in today - it could be a kidney stone. I've heard those are just horribly painful. While I'm certainly uncomfortable, it's not excruciating.

If you've had a kidney stone - does this sound like the symptoms you had?

I am about to turn 20 but between the ages 10 and 14 i was sexually abused by my step father. my mother never knew or turned a blind eye. He never raped me, but once or twice a week would proceed to give me a "back rub" that would end up in my pants. i never protested, never told anyone who could help, or did anything. i feel ashamed, mostly. my body responed even though i knew it was wrong. does that mean i liked it, therefor it wasnt really abuse? i also feel ashamed that it wasnt me who told, it was my sister. my mother didnt believe us when she found out. she thought it was some ploy to get our father and her back together. i dont really have a question, i would like to see comments or throughts or some sort of connection with other people like me.

My periods are not regurlar, so if I ever where to be pregnant I would not know as my periods dont come every 28 days.
I had been sexual active with out any form of contriception, for around 5 months with the same person.
Few weeks later lying in bed I had adominal cramps, and as I went to stand up, I had a great rush of blood. This blood was a unusral colour and it had large dark clumps in it. I only bled for a short time. I didnt suspect that I could be pregnant so I didnt before hand take a test. I am not sure whether or not this was my period or not can any one help me?

We were on a road trip and he just finished eating lots of nutritious snacks, so there was no way that he would be hungry. I had just bought him this big, shiny colorful book filled with all his favorite disney characters. At some point I hear him say to his sister, "I have gum". I turn around and he had bit off th corner binding of the book.. a nice big chunk. Then I remembered a few days prior he was chewing on a piece of velcro that he pulled off of something. This morning I noticed another piece of the book was chewed off.

I looked up PICA on the internet and it doesn't appear to be consistent with that. Has anyone had this experience with their children? If so, please help. I'll take any information I can get. Why would he be doing this?

to cut a long-ish story short...
im 17 years old
my doctor noticed a lump in my throat
he said it could be a goitre (in the thyroid gland)
he said id have to have a blood test and ultrasound scan to properly diagnose it
ive had the blood test, awaiting the results, and having the ultrasound soon

the thing is...
i have an extremely sensitive neck, almost like a phobia of it being touched
i get the shivers and cramp up when i think of having the ultrasound scan in a couple of weeks

and now ive just read on the internet of a girl who had the same poitential problem, but she also had to have an INJECTION IN HER NECK! this scares the hell out of me. im fine with injections in general but i just wouldnt be able to cope with one in my neck.. noo way

is it possible ill have to have one? and could i ask to be put to sleep? (i know how pathetic that sounds, but the fear is so intense and irrational i dont know if id physically let them go near my neck with a needle if i was awake

We even took him to a dermatologist and had no luck with the expensive creams. We have used soapless soap. Perfume free wipes, and all kinds of vasoline, cortizone, etc. It's real splotchy and red. Can anyone give me some home remedies or something that might work?

Can anybody recommend a psychiatrist in Nashville or St. Louis who is a good listener and willing to actively work with his/her patients? Someone experienced with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder would be especially helpful. Thanks!

are still people in the present that still antagonize and goad you?

im trying to control anger, get help for the bpd. but i still feel there are those who mentally taunt me, antagonize me, provoke me....and that just feeds into my inner rage and brings it all back out. inflames me.
theres people who subtely, indirectly play mind games with me.
so if im trying to control the rage and put the past behind me...how can i deal with people that do this?

Over the past year my son and his wife (of almost 20 years) having been having a messy seperation. I would rather not go into details, but I have learned things about her that I wish I hadn't. I've loved her like a daughter and now I can't make myself talk to her even for the sake of the grandkids. Maybe the fact that I still love her is part of the problem. For many reasons I can't avoid contact with her. Even though I am on a daily dose of xanax, I am having serious panic attacks when I see her. They are incapacitating and have to end. Any ideas.
