Health - 4 November 2007

I just picked up my new glasses from Walmart last night. I havent been able to wear them yet. Once I got home, I noticed that they are too small for my face and with the square lenses they don't look good at all. Of course when I tried on the test frames on in the store, it was hard to tell without my perscription lenses and not being able to see clearly.

Does anyone know if perscription frames/glasses can be returned for such an issue??

My period was due The 2nd of this month, but i did not get it. I recently went off the pill this month ( however i had only been on the pill for 2 cycles.) I had gotten my period for 1 week than a few days later got it for a few more days ( Last month in early october). I have had unprotected intercourse during the 20th of october. Im wondering if it is common to not get your period when you first get off Bc. Thank you!

I had a positive gonorrhea test and received a shot of rocephin at the doctors office yesterday. I was wondering how long it takes for the symtoms to go away? I was also wondering if it is common for rocephin not to work in some people? Please help, I am very scared. I always have protected sex, but this one time the condom broke. Im sure I will get a lot of people replying to my answer just to put me down. I do appreciate those of you who give me a genuine answer. Thanks!

I have heterochromia iridium. For those that do not know, that means one eye is one color and the other is another. My right eye is blue and my left eye is hazel.

Can my condition cause problems with my eyes? My left eye has terrible vision while my right eye is almost perfect. I do not know if you can understand this, but I can feel like my left eye is either larger or heavier than my right eye.

Excluding myself, everyone back to my great grandfather has blue eyes, and he had green eyes.

Could my left eye be from a genetic mutation or a hidden recessive gene? Why is one eye so much stronger that the other? Is heterochromia iridium common in humans?

I'm twenty years old, male, and have a fair amount of chest and belly hair.

I hate it. My girlfriend wants it gone too.

If I shave it off, will it do the same thing as my facial hair and grow back thicker and stronger, or will I just have to shave it every now and then?

It is really uncomfortable to mistake a landing on a BMX bike and squash the balls on a higher bike bar in the middle, however, a girls bike don't have such a thing, and would supply some sort of comfort with a lower bar, but why do they need it?

I recently quit smoking after having smoked for 22 years. I really want both my brother and husband to quit so that they will not suffer the way several family members did until finally dying. I personally watched my grandmother and father-in-law die of lung cancer. Neither of them went quickly either. My grandmother took about eight years and my father-in-law about six years. It was years of watching their therapy that really broke my heart. But despite all this, I hated when the non-smokers in my family gave me any grief about smoking. One day I woke up and was finally ready to quit. I hope my brother and husband will do the same. However we are all getting up there in age and that possibility is getting more bleak. I don't want to preach to them, but I also can't stand the thought of watching another loved one die in such a manner. Someone please help...I'm so torn.

people are working more and more hours to make sure that they keep their job these day and so companies can profit from fewer people doing more work

many people who work stressfull long hours can suffer from some type of depresssion, which can ultimately cause death from suicide

should bosses be held criminally responsible for these deaths if these people didnt want to work all these extra hours but were forced to so they wouldnt lose their job?

I have been on birth control for about 3 months now. My Gyno switched my pill on the third pack because the pill before that wasn't strong enough. She said that I should get my period during the week of the sugar pills. However, I have my period now and I am smack middle of the week with the active pills and it's heavy...going on day 6...why does this keep happening?! My normal periods should only last about 4 or 5 days and I have never missed a pill and always take it at the same time.
