Please pray for my boyfriend.

He is having chest pain and been in the ER and is unable to sleep. They said he is 39 and skinny with no family history of heart disease and is considered low risk. He has been having the pain since yesterday and they said he is not having a heart attack. They gave him a nitro pill and they said it would have worked if he was having heart problems. I had some similar symptoms a few years ago and they said I had acid refulx. Please pray that it isn't his heart. They are making him see a cardiologist today. He called me this morning to tell me.

Thank you so much for your kind prayers.

Please don't say anything if you are going to be mean. Keep it to yourself.

people being pregnant at 18? I personally am not I just wanted to see what everyone else's opinions were of this matter.... I asked in Adolescent and had a GREAT outcome of answers so i thought i'd ask on a different part of this site just to see the variation i guess.... Well lets say this 18 year old is NOT married and HAS finished high school.... she is in a stable relationship with a guy and she has a job... not saying what kind of job.. just a job. So What would you think of if she became pregnant? ALL opinions are welcome!

I had surgery on October 10th, It was a microfracture and some drain thing on the side of my knee.
Well since then, this is the last week of my recovery and I am very worried because its already thursday and my swelling hasn't gone all the way down. I have it compressed but haven't tried icing it alot. Is there other ways to reduce the swelling? Such as pills or exercise? As well I cannot bend my knee more than 0 to 80 degrees (Totally stinks)
Thanks

After squeezing a pimple under my armpit. I noticed that there is a small lump under the newly squeezed one. It is not a pea size, and it is really near to the surface (less than 5mm). Sometimes, i squeeze it and tiny bits of pus come out. I am a bit scared. Cuz i heard people say that if there is lump in your armpit or breast, then i would be breast cancer.
Please i would like to know a reasonable answer.

I've sat in front of a computer for so long now that I'm getting a huge tyre around my middle. The rest of me's OK, (just!!!!) but my middle (just under the bust,, not the lower bit although I suppose that could do with toning as well if I'm honest!) is threatening to become bigger than my bust! Help!!!!

orthodox-say you have flu,they give you painkillers or antibiotics,everybody gets the same thing,which doesnt cure the problem,just cover it up,and make you worse long term.

alternative,say you have flu,and are getting treated with homeopathy,then a remedy will be found specifically for your symptoms.and you will be treated as a whole.everything is taken into account,from diet to dreams.

what would you prefer?

friend I am doing engineering from IIT kharagpur. before coming here i use to be a very innocent guy. but due to huge stuff of pornography available through LAN , I have became addicted to it. every morning i think i will not watch any xxx movies but my will power break down in a week. I feel very guilty about it. I have tried many things, I offer namaz (5 times daily) read spiritual books, make lot of friends, hobbies, try to keep myself busy but in the night while going to bed my urge for pornography became paramount and i am blown by it.
please pray for me and give me ur valuable suggestion, i will try to follow it.

Ok. first off im 11 weeks pregnant and have had a blood test and urine sample given at about 8 weeks.

I went to doc few days ago regarding an ongoing vaginal infection or issue just regarding an excess discharge. yellowish. sometimes smells bad sometimes not too bad but always a smell.
she did a swab of discharge and urine test. she said to come in in a week for results
She rang me today. the next day. saying to come in today. as they cant discuss on phone she was vaugue she kinda said something about a urine/bladder infection that needs antibiotics. which is crap i think cause its discharge not urinary tract. i asked is thats all thats wrong she said, 'oh i cant discuss anymroe on phone' she then asked if i had burning with the urinating or anything. I said no. said i had to come in tomorrow cause im away.
So i have appointment for tomorrow, but im stressing that its serious. if it was detectable in urine wouldnt the other one showed something. so being a swab.. chlamidia?

I had a really big pee, and the Ladie's have just one toilet at work, so I rushed it to the Gent's today.
Naturally I used the toilet with a closed door, but when I came out from there I saw two of my co-workers, both male standing by the long wall mounted crib. They were urinating and one was shaking off his ......
Why do men stand next to one another and chat while doing this private thing?
Do they look at one another while exposed like that?

What treatment is available for this

2007-11-07 20:42:33 · 3 answers · asked by Babs 1 in Other - Diseases

Let me clarify, first of all.
I'd say on average I pee about 10 times a day or slightly more. It's a lot per day, but only really extraordinary because I don't really consume that much fluids. I'm a 21 year old male, a little less than 200 pounds. Not completely in shape but not obese or dangerously out of shape either. I'm studying abroad in Taiwan right now.

When I drink a normal sized bottle of water in one sitting, I typically make trips to the bathroom very often for the next couple hours, maybe about two times per hour for about 2 hours. I haven't always had this problem. I'm scared to keep myself fully hydrated because I'm often out and about and don't want to be constantly visiting bathrooms.

I'm not sure about the quantity I urinate, but it seems to be a generous amount and I'd be surprised if I couldn't more than fill the bottle completely after a couple hours, if not less.

Does this sound like a problem anyone else has had?

Right now I want to lose about 100lbs (I'm 20). When I was 15-16 I lost about 50 pounds (which I gained back plus some!) but I had no problems with extra skin. I'm worried that now that I'm a little bit older and weigh a lot more than I did then, that I'll have a lot of extra skin from losing the weight. I know losing it slowly and exercising is key -- before I did about half an hour of cardio every day in addition to eating healthy. Will that still work or do I have to worry about the extra skin since I'm nearly 100lbs overweight now?
