Health - 25 October 2007

I was in a meeting at work and my boss was threatening to fire one of us. I guess this was a stressful situation. I have had my bouts of anxiety before but nothing like this has ever happened. We were in a white meeting room with bright florescents but EVERYTHING turned white except my boss (who I was looking at ) who was wearing a white shirt(he did get a little foggy). I was almost unaware that it was abnormal for a good 30 seconds... I was kind of in a daze. When I realized what was happening, I kind of snapped out of it and I gained regular vision back, as I got a dizzy tingling sensation all over.. I was about to break out into a Panic Attack (rapid heart rate) when the meeting ended and I got up and walked out and was fine, just a little shaken up. I was sitting down when this happened. Any ideas? Just anxiety doing weird things? I've never heard of this "white out" before.

Also what is the difference between taking a tylenol, being giving morphine in a hospital, and killing myself to relieve pain?

I am just curious to how painful it is when my heart will shut down, lungs cave in, and brain stop functioning. I think we are usually "unconcious" at that point i hope. Unconciousness may very well be one of the greatest gifts during death.

I've been trying to switch up my lifting routine by doing different exercises with different equipment.
In the last couple weeks on "chest" days, I've been lifting a barbell with one ten pound weight on each side. I do three sets of 10.
Any-who, I find that as I'm coming to the top of the rep, my dominant arm overcompensates for the weaker one. Any way I can stop this from happening in order to ensure that both arms are receiving an equal workout?
Should I position my hands differently, distribute the weight differently, etc.?
Thanks!

during cold weather my knee, dislocates, swells up, or the knee will float. i'm 18 years old...this has been happening to me since i was very young. i have been doing excercises, and biking, taking pills, but nothing is working. i really need to know whats going on with me and what i can do to fix this problem. my chiropractor had said that it might be because of the growth spurts i've been having but those have stopped. i'm scared to walk, and to ride my bike after my knee feels better. i've done the ice and rest, i've done the soaking in warm water...nothing is helping, i weigh 155, i'm 5'7 i'm not over weight....theres something else. please someone tell me whats wrong with my knee, and what i have to do to fix it.

I have had crohns disease for 11 years now. My husband and I want to start a family in 2-3 years and I was wondering if anyone out there has advice for me. Did you stop all meds? Did your crohns go into remission when you were pregnant? How do you deal with your disease and having a family? Any input will help. Thanks!

My friend has scabies and she has had them for about 1 month and half, supposedly. And i havent talked to her in 3 weeks. Although I was with her the 3 weeks previous. And my friends have been around her for the whole 6 weeks. I am very scared that her having scabies is going to lead to me. So, what are the chances I might get it? I dont even know because I dont talk to her anymore but its possible I could still get it right? What if i dont right now, how can i make it so i dont get it in the next couple of weeks until she knows for sure if it was scabies or not?

Why does our society and the media so focusing on man size? You see in porn and male enhancement ad on TV and in magazine. The message said bigger is better. How many men feel the need to be bigger to be satisfied or you are happy with your size?

How many guys think it does matter?

My doctor put me on birth control pills, because of hormonal
imbalance. I am supposed to take a pill every morning for 21 days, then stop for 7 days, then start again. The first month was fine, and I got my periods on the third day of my seven days pills free period.
But this month nothing happens! It's the fifth day today, I am to
start taking pills in two days and there is no sign of any periods.
What does it mean? Is it bad?

So my mom been feeling sick latley and she gets bad headaches, bad memory lost, she sometimes forgets mine and my sisters names. She went to the hospital last night and they did an MRI and CT SCAN, XRAYS OF HER LUNGS AND BLOOD TEST TO SEE IF SHE GOTS INFECTION. But when the results came in they said she was doing fine. We know somethings wrong with her. You can just tell from her face. But like i said they think shes okay. Should we take her to a different doctor or Speacialist? She also had a mild stroke would that have something to do with it too? She also told the doctor when she was little she had seizures. But hasnt had one since she was little would that have also something to do with it? WELL PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOU!!!

At the moment I wear a 30A bra and it's really tight and sticks up in the middle of my bust. But because I go to New Look and the bra sizes are a bit different there, I'm a bit worried if I get measured and I'm completely wrong about my bra size. Also, if I do get measured, where's a good place to go to in the UK? Thanx <33

I go to sleep between 10:45-12:00, and wake up around 7:30, but I ALWAYS wake up tired.

Mind you, after 8:30 or 9:00, I feel 100%. I feel fully refreshed and energized, and I don't feel tired up until 10:30 pm or so.. But I'm always groggy and find it impossible to get up on time in the morning.

I exercise regularly, eat healthy, and sleep on a tempurpedic matress.

Any ideas?
