I lost my contacts on my left eye and went to the doctor to get a new one. Now when i put on the new contact, air bubble keeps coming out whenever i close my eyes. Should i get another one or is there any way to fix this problem without getting a new one?

I'm only 17 years old and I've had this problem for a while now (probably a couple of years) but my heart hurts sometimes. I don't know how to describe except for that it just starts hurting and if i move my left arm the pain will somewhat spike or if i breath in.

Please Read - I am 24, 6'3", a white athletic male. In 2004 I was diagnosed by a family doctor to have elevated hemoglobin, too much iron and protein in my urine. He quickly thought I had Polycythemia Vera and sent me on to a hemotologist. Two months later when I visited the hemotologist he told me he didn't know what I had but he thought it definitely ISN'T Polycythemia Vera. He strongly urged me to quit smoking and follow up with him. Shortly after I was wrongfully fired from my job and lost my insurance. I stupidly never followed up with anyone from that day on. Still today, 3 years later, I have not quit smoking either. (I have Chantix which I will try in November.) Also, lately weird things happen. I get that "funny bone" buzzing pain in my hands and feet if I squeeze them strangely, like I have too much blood. I sometimes have hour-long sneezing fits that feel "blood-swollen" in my sinuses. I get random itchy "bite"-looking rash marks that disappear in hours. What should I do?

sandwich at lunch. What would you do?
My son is protected under Title 504 in a public school for his severe peanut allergy. It has been a long road, but my son is very aware of his allergy and of the people around him and to avoid anyone with peanut butter. Our decision as a family was not to isolate our son at a peanut free table (which basically does not exist at the school...he theoretically would be sitting by himself.)
Today he tells me that a girl was purposely taunting him with peanut butter after he told her that he could possibly die if he ingested any. She held a sandwich in the air close to his face and waved it in a circle and yelled "oooooo" ... My son and a friend told the teacher after lunch what she had done and the girl was called aside privately and spoken to.
Should I take any more action with the school? A phone call? A letter to the teacher? What would you do?

I have smoked marajuana on and off for around 2-3 years now but recently I have been smoking it more and more. I plan to apply for the Army soon and will obviously be drug tested (probably within the next 4-5 months). I do genuinely want to stop smoking it and make a real go of life in the Army, so how do I go about clearing my system so as to pass these drug tests ? P.s. No lectures please, I know it's illegal and I don't encourage it :)


Any help with this would be much appreciated ..

I would like to exercise for about 30 minutes in the morning doing cardio work and again in the evening for about 15-20 minutes of cardio as a warm up before doing some strength training, is this plan fine or should I plan on doing 45 minutes of cardio and the strength/weight training all at the same time.
The goal is weight loss, strength and fitness.

I have another week until I can take one of the early tests... just ovulated Saturday... I'm trying to keep my mind off of it. It didn't seem like too high of a possibility at first to me, but he's really worried about it, which is making me worried about it! Now would be bad timing for both of us, so we're sort of freaking a little. Any advice to get through the week? I'm having a hard time focusing at work...
