As you have probably heard on the news (in the UK), the NHS will start giving the cervical cancer vaccine to young girls from beginning of next year, and up to 18 yr olds within the next 2 years. However as a woman in her late 20's, I would like the vaccine too as a precaution because there has been a history of that in my family. I would like to have it done sooner rather than later however if I was to get it done privately which is the best vaccine, 'Gardasil' or 'Cevarix' (by two different companies)??

Thanks in advance!

My girlfriend of 3 months was always tired and is 34. I suggested that she go for a blood test and it came back that she has Herpes-Type 2. I am not sure what this means. We have oral sex. I met her on a gay dating site & she comes from a very good family. Do we continue to see one another or what is it you do. I have done some research & seems this is a very common thing & 45 million people have this. Yes, I do plan to go get tested. I Don't understand why it is so common & that most people have it? Do you continue the relationship if I don't have it? I would think so if it is so common among people.

I never really knew my bio father. I know he was abusive and never around when I was a child. Him and my mom spli before I was 2. My mother was always working when I was younger, so my sister and I so I never recieved the attention or love that I needed. Up until this point in my life I've sabatoged every relationship in my life. I lost a meaningful relationship of 3 yrs b/c I let my abandonment issues infaltrate a once wondeful relationship. Now she loathes me b/c I didn't want to let her go. These issues are a constant problem for me. They affect my daily life and so my quailty of life is affcted. I always think people hate me or are looking down on me. I endurded some verbal and physical abuse from a stepfather and i still hold on to those pains. I just want to wake up and be able to breath w/out feeling like I'm worthless and I am worthy of being loved.

I am good looking with correct weight for my height. But my only problem is my tummy. I have lower tummy, which looks odd and it stops me from wearing tight fitting dresses.

How to reduce my tummy alone?

Right so I wanna lose a little weight and tone up I know its gonna take a while and lots of work but I was wondering how long by doing this will it take to see results:
20-30 mins on a stationary bike 4-5 times a week.
Alternating various abs, legs and arm exercises during the week.
And just like eating stuff in moderation.
Any answers much appreciated :-) x

ok..I am not too crazy about the american cancer society which is why i chose not to donate to any of the charities events sponsoring them. has anyone else felt this way, and what can you do rather than donating money to help out? I DO feel very bad for cancer people as i have had many friends who have been through it, and I know it is a sad thing. i just dont agree with the ACS. what real things can i do that will ensure getting closer to cancer patients being cured? it makes me sad that people are dying and suffering so much from this disease, but it has been over 50 years of them "researching" cancer, and I believe this is all a big scam. is it a hopeless cause or what?

I have a 'complicated medical history' as my many doctors say. The three main things I have to keep an eye on is my epilepsy - caused by a non-malignant brain tumor, my heart - dilated cardiomyopathy, and my kidneys and bladder are failing.
I sometimes have TIA, or mini-strokes as some people call them. My last one was last week. My home nurse/carer keeps regular obs each day, including my blood pressure, last night it went up to 199/135 my heart rate was 201bpm. My heart very often 'misses' a beat, but last night it was very irregular, it 'missed' several beats and then suddenly increased this showed up on the bp machine.
I am on the waiting list for a new heart, and today I feel okish. But my left arm is very numb and there is hardly any feeling in my fingers. Everytime I pick something up with my left hand I immediately drop it.

Should I be overly worried, or is this normal for someone in my condition.

Serious answers only please, thank you.

My dad has pneumonia. The Dr. gave him an antibiotic and sent him home and had him come back the next day for a chest CT scan. The following day the Dr. called and sent him to the hospital. At the hospital they did tests, told my dad his lungs looked horrible. They did not admit him, but they are having him follow up with a pulmonologist.

If his lungs looked horrible, why would they not treat him at the hospital? If it wasn't serious enough for him to be hospitalized why would they tell him his lungs looked bad and refer him to a specialist? If it wasn't serious why not just have him finish the antibiotics and follow up with his normal doctor?

Do you think they found something else on the ct scan and haven't told him yet? My dad had a 3 pack a day habit until 5 years ago. He started smoking at 10, stopped at 27 and started again at 37 and smoked until 60.

I'm kind of concerned.
