My skin has become very dry and sensitive and I'm fed up having to buy creams that to me that cost too much money, I'm wondering is there a really good cream out there that I can buy at a resonable price? I look forward to hearing back from other people who suffer from the same problem. Help!!!

My instructor tells me that hand sanitizer kills only the good bacteria and small to medium risk bacteria. The 'bad' bacteria isn't killed by it (staph). The problem is that the bad bacteria actually multiply much more than they did before and you end up with more of the disease causing organisms on you.

Is this true?

Im seeing pink for the cure products everywhere, so Im sure by now there must be TONS of money for this cause. Im just wondering what sort of impact this is having, are we any closer to finding a cure? or is the majority of this money going towards breast cancer awareness?

Because I am aware that people get brest cancer, but I dont know why they get it, how to prevent it, or anything about it..I never hear about any of that.

Also, is breast cancer the only kind of cancer that doesnt have a cure yet, or is it the only one they decided to market? It seems unfair to put so much money into one illness, and not any others?

This is for a health paper on STDS. I was assigned syphilis, and I haven't been able to track down this answer-- which sex finds out about being infected first? Male or female?

Information would be very helpful!

Ok, so I recently tried acid for the first time, and the effects were not quite what I had expected. Others with me that also took it said that they had much better results. Things were still different for me, but not as intense as I had hoped it would be. So I just came to the conclusion that the acid I took was very weak. The next morning when I woke up I had a terrible headache. For some reason this bothered me because as far as I know, there is not suposed to be a headache like this the next day. Also, others that tried the acid said that they had extremely bad headaches the next morning. So I am just curious, is this some what normal? Was that even acid that we took, or am I just over thinking all of this? I hear that some people sell arsenic off as acid so it started to bother me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

My community (PQ) was evacuated already, it it's really close to RB and Poway. I'm at college right now in LA and I'm constantly calling my parents every couple hours. I don't think I can even sleep tonight. Almost all my friends back at SD have been evacuated already. I have a headache with thinking about it and I can't concentrate at all on hw.

This is my second week on it and I've noticed some changes. I've become very sensitive to things. I was listening to a song and started to cry. When I went to the doctors I was 125pounds. Now since I've been on it I am 115pounds. I'm not that hungry. I've been having headaches and diahree. I'm prone to migranes and I'm not sure if that has to do with the headaches. I also started a job about a month ago and its my first job. So that may factor into some of it. I also got that shot for the hpv virouse while I was there. However that was a month ago. (it took two weeks for the yaz to get in) I was wondering if you are on it what are some things you've expirenced. I was on birth controle for a cyst a year ago but had to stop due to finacial problems. I just recently started yaz for severe pre and post menstural pain. (cramping, lower back aches, emotional, irritable, fatigue, and bloating) Well like I say just share your expierence please.
