they always say that people die because they didnt find out they had cancer soon enough, but how do you know you have it. if you have diareah, you know it because your stomach hurts, but what are some signs you have cancer. for example prostate cancer.

Okay. I have been seeing this girl for the past 7 months now and for the past two months we have been sexually involved. At first the sex was great. So great that we did it three-four times a day. Well as time went on due to the constant sex...it just got boring for the both of us. We tried spicing it up. Instead of generic vaginal intercourse we proceeded to anal and oral intercourse. That was great too but once again we overdid it and the platitude of sex that once burdened us reared it's ugly head again. So does anyone knows a fourth insertable hole a female has to spark a romantic life up? 've searched all over but, alas, to no avail.

This is a serious question that I hope receives atleast one serious answer to help me.

I don't know where to begin getting help for myself. A few years ago I began having panic attacks, but I didnt know what they were. once I found out I began to self medicate with alcohol and sedatives, until finally I stopped it and started to deal with it. The attack subsided, and I traded them in for generalized anxiety and obsessions, mainly about my health. I was better for a while, and by better I mean that I slipped in and out of clinical depression, which was a relief after all that anxiety. Now the anxiety is back full force and it has manifested itself in the form of horrible obsessions about AIDS and cancer. I link everything to that and its really crazy. I make everything from a strange number on my caller ID to a text message on my boyfreinds cell from an ex girlfriend somehow relate to AIDS, like I think they are trying to tell me they have it. It is ruining my happiness and distracting me from the things that should be making me happy. To top it all off, I have ADHD!Yay

I suffer from depression, have a stress and anxiety problem, possibly ocd. I have a lot of issues, obviously. So how do I cope when everything around me seems to go wrong? It's been an on going problem for about 3 years. I know everyone has problems, but when you have to live life with ALL those things I mentioned above it only makes matters worse. So I'm just looking for some advice or suggestions on how I could possibly make things easier for me and those around me (since they also suffer when those things hit me hard). It's really getting to me.

There is a type of contact solution (i forget the brand) that you are supposed to use only in the little test-tube looking container. My boyfriend accidentally put it in a case (which the bottle warns you not to do) and the instant I put them in my eyes, a terrible burning sensation occured and my eyes are beet red and still hurt. Has this happened to anyone before? Do you think it's ok if I don't go to the doctor?

Also, it could have been the antibacterial hand cream that I used prior to putting them in my eyes that could have caused it. However, when I tried putting my other one in, I didn't even use it. That's why I'm assuming it was the solution.. Someone please help me!

This is an appendix question.
Okay well yesterday I began laughing and all, and my appendixes started hurting EXTREMELY bad. I coughed, they hurt. Today, it is a gazillion times worse. I told my mother about it, she doesn't know what to do. I showed her where it hurt really bad and she told me it was my appendix. What should I do? Should I go see a doctor? Or just wait for it to go away or get worse. I'm really worried.

It hurts really really bad and I do not think I can go on with it much longer.

On Friday, my 3 y/o started complaining that his mouth hurt. When we looked in his mouth, there is a blister but there is also a whole on the inside of his lip. It does not go all the way thru to the outside. It is at the very bottom of his lip about at the base of the gum line but not in his gum. He could not have bit it due to the place it is in. He never cried when it initially started hurting him. Now, he cries with it all the time. And of course, he has a hard time eating. What would cause this hole and is this something we should get checked out?

believe it or not, this could explain a good bit about reality to me - something that fascinates me :)
i thought that artificial pacemakers were put in, replacing a heart - but apparently not?
and apparently, we dont have brains hooked up to machines - which i find curious.

I am getting into bodybuilding. However, I have really skinny legs (I am an 18 year old ectomorph by the way). I have worked them out by doing squats, but it seemed to make them skinnier. So I stopped. I was doing about 10 reps for 3 sets of heavy weight once a week.
I know Arnold used to have skinny legs too. So im not hopeless.
Any other guy out there use to have this problem?
How can I cure it?

I've been to three offices, and know of at least 2 others, where this holds true. I'm sure there are exceptions, but why does this seem to be the rule?

A close family member the same age as I...(23 yrs. old) was diagnosed w/ Bi polar and panic disorder. She filed a claim with social security...after months they decided they needed to have one of their doctor's do a mental exam. Everything with that went really well...and the doctor agreed that she was Bi polar and had a panic disorder. Now what...what are the chances you are approved once you get to that point. Also...how far back do they back pay you??? I know because she rarely ever worked they said she would only get the minimum, just under $500 mnthly. Is that so...even if she had been diagnosed with 2 disorders??? I need some one who knows from experience what happens now. Thank you very much..your help is appreciated greatly. ;)

From what Ive read, this means I have to change my workout routine, either the intensity, the order, or just do different exercises all together.....Heres the thing...for chest for example, what exercises is there to switch to, you have your variations of presses & the machines, I dont know what else I can do....So my question is, if anyone has had this challenge where you needed to switch your routine around because you stopped seeing results, what did you do, where did you get your ideas(different exercises) from, and how often should you switch routines? I appreciate your help.
