My grandparents are forcing me to go to a catholic church with them, and they say that I need to buy a pair of contacts to cover up my naturla eye color...red.... and I need help finding a very cheap pair of black contacts.

how can I find a doctor that will listen to me?

my doctor told me that surgery (for my TMJ) is the only thing that will actually "fix" it, but that he wants me to try other things to "make it better" first! I'm in so much pain, I just want to find a doctor that will listen to me and perform the surgery! help!

my brother and sister got into a car accident, there both home now. But it dosnt seem like anything at home is getting better. Im only 15 and its really hard for me to watch my mom and dad, people who are supposted to be my "rock" break down and cry, to have everything everywhere with no control or structure, to have mom and dad at eachothers throats, to be the neighborhood charity box. I've become numb to everything. I push it all into the back of my mind and forget about it. Im completely withdrawn from everything. I dont care anymore. Its like in in my own bubble. I feel invisable, and alone. None of my friends get what im going through so they cant help. and its not like they care anyways. i told one friend and all she said was "that sucks" and walked away. I feel like im going this alone, and i cant do it by myself anymore. I wanna crawl into a hole and just be left alone. This whole month has been too much, one thing after another. im completely stressed i just want it to be over

I have a friend, and she is taking birth control. She is ill almost all the time. She gets very ill at one of her guy friends. And this guy friend has been a really good friend to her. Its just like ever since she started taking the birth control, she just gets angry real easily. Is this normal?

Last year at this time I was 200 pounds and cholesterol was 222. I am now 125 pounds. I eat very healthy, low fat, rarely eat more than 40 grams a fat per day, I do at least 30 minutes or more of cardio everyday, I eat alot of soluble fiber foods daily, apples, grapes, oatmeal, wholegrains ect. I never eat fast food or fried food. Never eat chips or other salty snacks. always eat fat free dairy like yogurt, frozen yogurt, skim milk. I only drink water, lots of it, I eat fat free candy like gummi candies and lollipops a few times a week. I went for cholesterol test yesterday and it was 246! I fasted for 15 hours! How is this possible? Can eatign fat free candies be causing this?

I don't want to stereotype, my step-mother is hispanic and eats tons of fruit and veggies and exercises daily.

However, I know for a fact that most hispanics do not eat very healthy foods, their toddlers drink cola and eat candy and are usually overweight, do not exercise, etc.

When I go to Kaiser, I look around and am surrounded by hispanics.

Due to their lifestyle, could it be that hispanics have more health problems?

If the answer to this questions is yes, then that would mean that all other ethnicticities besides hispanics are paying higher prices for health care due to the large population of hispanics that have health problems.

What do you think? Please, by all means, set me straight if I am wrong.

I have been adicted to Tramadol for about 4 or 5 years now. I have never taken large doses. Most of these years I have taken no more than 200mg daily. (Usually 2 in the morning and 1 or 1&1/2 in the afternoon, 50mg pills) I found out a few days ago I am pregnant (about 5 weeks) and I am trying to stop taking these pills since I know it can't be good for me or the baby! It is so hard to stop! I am super weak, its hard to breathe, my whole body hurts, I have had a migraine for 3 days... the list goes on.. I have a full time job and I really can't imagine feeling like this at work tomorrow! I can't think straight! Any suggestions?

I know they don't test for alcohol and I'm not concerned about it, just want to know if I go out drinking the night before if it can have a negative affect on anything else? I smoked weed a bit ago and don't know if anything can happen.
