Health - 6 October 2007

I'm going off of two and a half hours of sleep for the next 12 or so hours. What is a tried and true method to staying awake and not feeling like complete crap? Anything, even temporarily unhealthy (though not life threatening...and not crack...) would do.

Hey there, so I think I am begining to get OCD, I mean, I have recently gotten into the habit it's like everytime I go to the bathroom, finish eating, get home from school, things like that I HAVE to wash my hands, and sometimes I'll just wash my hands because, I spend at least 5 minutes washing my hands everyday. And I use purell like a maniac. And if I'm at my locker for school, the dial on the lock has ot be at zero when I leave, or it bugs me the whole class if I don't know if it is, I also have gotten into the habit of making sure I do not step on cracks when I am walking in the hallway/outside. Does this sound like OCD to you? Or developing anyways?

My friend has had her leg amputated between the ankle and the knee. She loves to chat on the internet but using the laptop while sitting on the couch is causing her a lot of pain in her back. Can anyone suggest something that could help her. She's really confined to that couch during the day and most of the vening.

Hello , I am a teacher at a school , I teach at a highschool. I had a student the other day, that needed to "talk" to me about something important. She confronted me , and said that she feels shes bulimic. She said it all happened last year under alot of stress. And only one other person knows about this, her bestfriend, who came with her to talk to me. I promised her I wouldn't tell anybody unless she said I could. Shes scared of her mom finding out because her Mom has already threatned her if she ever had something like this she'd be put in a mental hospital. I dont know what to do. Any advice ? You could email me if you'd prefer .. K.Alley123@yahoo.com

Thankyou.

My mom had breast cancer and beat it almost 6years ago and now she's just recently found another lump but here's the problem. We don't have any money and she does not have healthcare and does not qualify for state health care. We cant afford to pay for the medical bills. Is there anyone out there that can help us? I mean, i know that the American Cancer Society gives Free Memograms but do they do that in Missouri? If you have any suggestions on where we can get help, please let us know. This really is a life and death situation..

I started trinessa about a month ago and got my period a few days ago. I decided to take birth control because of horrible cramps (so bad I had to call off work a few times) and heavy periods. I just got my period this week and it started out light and stuff, but now on day four its starting to get heavy! Why? Id this normal? Is this still my body adjusting to the bc, or is the bc not helping? Thanks

I had my wisdom teeth taken out on Tuesday it is now Saturday, the pain has gotten worse. Nothing seems to stop the pain, the ibprofun seems to have no effect cool compress doesn't do anything. I tried to see if I have a dry socket but I can't really see anything everything is all swollen and it looks like the cut is off to the side. I do have a weird salty taste in my mouth (not sure if it is from the salt rinse) and the pain has gotten worse with each passing day, I just cried for about 10 minutes because the pain is so intense. My cheeks also feel very hot my temperature is normal however. The place where I got my wisdom teeth taken out is closed, should I call another dentist or oral surgery place (hopefully open on saturday) or should I wait? It really hurts and feels like it is burning. If I do try to find a clinic, is a normal dentist clinic ok or do I need an oral surgery clinic? Any advice help is greatly appreciated. Also I didnt smoke or spit or drink from a straw however
