Health - 13 October 2007

I'm 17 now, and i think ive stopped growing, but i have a massive issue about my boobs. They are like not even an A cup, and i get really self concious. I have never really had boyfriend although had offers, i just feel i could never show anyone, so i push them away...Its really bugging me, as ive tried to be happy with myself, but it never works. What can i do about this problem as its really hindering my confidence and socialising with guys! I'm 5"4 and 108pounds, so i know im quite petite, i just feel so ugly with my boobs. Any advice about what i can do? aaarrrgh! xx

I am on birth control and I am aware that there is really no medical reason for a woman to have a period once a month. A friend of mine said the inactive pills that cause a monthly period in birth control can be skipped and just go straight to the next set of active pills to skip the period. I was just wondering if anyone had knew any reason why this wasn't ok to do, or if anyone knew that it was ok. Thanks! =)

Okay since the end of june I've had these horrible stomach pains EVERY SINGLE DAY. I thought it'd eventually go away but it hasn't. It hurts on my left upper torso and feels like...gas pain maybe? I don't know how to describe it. But it makes me feel like I have to go to the bathroom every 5 seconds. [Not literally but you know what I mean.] PLEASE help me!!

My nephew has lost alot of weight, eyes are sunk in, will not eat hardly at all. My neice took him to the doctor and the urine test showed an abnormally high wbc in his urine. He is thirsty and will drink but hardly urinates. He has been sick a few times in the last few months with flu-like symptoms. The dr. put him on Bactrim and said to bring him back in 10 days to do more testing, blood work, etc... Can anyone tell me what they think this is? His grandfather died of throat cancer the year before he was born and his mom died two years before he did of cancer. I'm not scared of any answers you may give and any input would be appreciated. Thanks and God Bless.

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I've wanted to cry so many different times and can't. All my family can, but I can't, I've never been able to cry. I wanted to cry when my little nanny, little grampsy, aunt ruth, uncle john, and uncle danny died, but couldn't. I've wanted to cry, when my brother james, and my sister mary got married, but couldn't. I have wanted to cry during really sad parts of a move and can't. I've tried crying when I'm upset, and even hurt at times, but cannot cry. All my life I've never been able to cry and I don't understand. Someone please help me. Why can't I cry?

I know "a know it all" who is getting divorced. He has smoked dope for over 11 years to self-medicate. Now he's quitting cold-turkey so if he's tested after 45 days he won't test positive. He's a very intense high strung guy and I think he's making a wrong move.

Every man I see is evil and very abusive! I have not met one man that is nice at all! I notice when boys transition into their monstrious ways its at the age of 13. I'm also deathly afraid of men! I wasn't abused or molested but there is just something evil about them! Women everywhere heed my words that a man can never be trusted! I'm attracted to men but I'm afraid that a man will hurt me! Once a guy approaches me I immediatley start screaming then proceed to run away from him as fast as possible!

I had to take a month off from taking birth control pills because I ran out and wasn't able to get more until later. Normally I'm a Sunday start and would get my period on the Wednesday of my "off" week which started the previous Sunday and then I would start a new pack on the following Sunday. My period isn't completely done when I start a new pack. It normally drifts off on the Monday and is completely gone by the end of Tuesday. With stopping the pills for a month my period was two days late, starting on Friday. My question is (finally, haha) should I still start a new pack on Sunday or should I perhaps wait until Tuesday?

I've just started uni and although the course isn't going too badly, I'm convinced I'm going to fail. The course is a medical one and requires a lot of confidence to talk to patients etc, and I just don't have that. We are being videoed soon, and assessed, for our communication abilities and I can't communicate cos I'm too shy, so I know I'll do badly. I really want to quit but I don't know if it's a good idea or not - I don't have anything else going for me. I'm not attention seeking, I swear, I just don't think I have anything else that I would be good at. I don't know what to do. Please please help, I just have no idea where to go now.

I have mild nail fungus on toe and nails, on sosme nails but I want to remove the fungus, it looks a little dry and cracked but not like yellow, green or any color. I am using some over the counter product called "Fung off" which is a liquid thing. I´ve heard of Lamisil tablets, does that work? have you tried it? how long does it take for that to work? whats the cost?

Think about it if sneezing from a cold you get sick so would it be the same? Just curious...I know not every one you see is infected with HIV/STD. I was curious to see if this would be true if this virus/bacteria can affect you. Its kinda like bodily fluid, right? Help me with this weird question....

I've been on meds for about 5 days now for a UTI and was starting to feel better but last night I started getting awful flank pain that kept me awake and when I don't have the sharp pains I have a dull ache and nausea. The sharp pains only last a few seconds at a time but are awful. I'm wondering if my meds aren't working and this is becoming a kidney infection? I don't have a fever but I feel sick and I've been peeing so much its driving me nuts. Does this sound like a kidney infection? I think I need to see my doc again on monday.
