It's driving me mad! I used to wear it all the time and now I can't wear it for more that 12 hours without it irritating me - my skins kinds of blisters. Anyone got any ideas why this might have happened?

Just wondering if this works and if it works right away or if it needs to be in your system for awhile first.

Can anyone give me some advice which type of regulations are breached by my employer, when he allows the cleaning personnel to use bleach to clean cups and the inside of the microwave? I am aware that bleach is classified as a corrosive substance in the COSHH regulations, however I am not working with the substance, it is only used in my work place. I have adressed this issue to the office manager twice, he in turn has spoken to the cleaners, as have I; to no avail.
So I guess so me kind of legal procedure would be appropriate at this stage, like an inspection or something like that. Any useful advice on what the next step should be? ( I should add that my college is suffering from digestive problems and she suspects the b leach in the microwave might be the cause. thanks a lot

I have always suffered with my ears and throat from a very young age and when I was 16 I had an operation to repair a perforated eardrum,and I was 22 when I had my tonsils removed after having at least 5 bouts of tonsilitis each year.
Since having them removed 3 years ago I have only had 3 throat infections but have started to suffer again with my ears.
I know that one of the side affects of have your tonsils removed is referal pain but for the last 3 days I have had really bad ear ache just like I used to get when I was younger with a perforated ear drum.
The problem Im having is that my throat is absolutely fine,no pain what so ever,and my ears are not weeping or blocked up in anyway so I dont think its an ear infection.My hearing has gone very echoey if that makes any sense???
I rang my doctors after 2 nights of no sleep at all but cant get an appointment for another week and the nurse practitioner said that this is not classed as an emergancy case.
Any ideas??

I was 16, had some bad acne, so i took accutane and it worked 100% after the cycle all acne was gone. But about 6 months later it came back, so now im on it again. After this cycle will my acne be gone forever??????


Also, would i have a better chance of getting rid of acne if i just ride out the storm? Is accutane just delaying my body's way of taking care of acne??

Im 17 now, I dont want acne in my 20's!!!

Hi I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism about a year ago and all I do is take medications (Hormonal)..
(I am a 22 years old male by the way) I use to be a very avtive smart atheletic young guy, but since about three-four years ago things have taken a bad turn. Hypothyroidism has put a U-turn in my life, I am no longer smart but am dum compared to the average people around me, my memory (wait i have no more memory,lol)has decreased significantly and I am sluggish in speech, and life is getting worse it seems as depression seems to be setting in from timt to time.

I wanted to know if there was something else that I could do
Like eat some certain foods that are good for the thyroid gland
or exercise the thyroid through yoga maybe?
Meditate, be one with God,..pray?

Can you please share with me anything other than eating the medications that you do for you HYPOthyroidism???

thanks appreciate any replies..

What I am describing is all new since I started having periods again after weaning. From the first day of my period through a few days after ovulation I am uncomfortably bloated in the hips and abdomen. It's bad enough that I can't even wear my clothes. Then, as I near my period, I completely deflate when I normally had PMS.

I still have cycles like clockwork and normal periods. Does anyone know what is going on with my body?

I'm a full time student, no job though, I'm looking for one. Theres a lot of things in my life right now going wrong and I find that keeping busy keeps my mind off of it and I don't get depressed. When I do get depressed, everything will get worse. School keeps me busy, work will (as soon as I get a job), any more suggestions? I want to be busy enough so that the only time I go home is to sleep.
