Health - 10 November 2007

I started school for dental hygiene in august 07. So far we have just been practicing on each other and we start to see patients in January. I was just wondering how long does it take to feel really comfortable with the instruments. How long does it take to really be able to do everything correctly and have that moment where you just get everthing? Also I would love any advice you could give me. Thanks.

My sister has been accepting forged prescriptions from her nurse friend. Her friend called them in sometimes to the pharmacy. They were drugs such as vicodin, and phenogen. The nurse got caught. What can happen to my sister now?

About 4 years ago when I had my first child I lost complete feeling on my areola I believe after breast feeding... Since then I haven't regained it back, I've have a bit of trouble with my second child breast feeding because my nipple gets soft really fast and he can't latch on correctly... Has anyone had this and if so, what causes it?

I just got my wisdom teeth pulled and they caused a ton of overcrowding in the front of mouth and i have a lot of gaps in my teeth when i smile. I guess its partly because I never really took care of my teeth when i had braces years ago (barely wore retainer/rubber bands etc..) and I didnt get the wisdom teeth taken out immediately.

I know that teeth cannot shift without some help, so besides braces are their any other cheaper alternatives to straighten my teeth? I am 22 and don't want to have metal in my mouth like a teenager. Any suggestions along with price range would be very valuable. Thank you.

I bought a pot of chewable 60mg vitamin C tablets today.

It says only one a day, is this right? I though Vit C couldn't store itself - so how many a day should I really take?

I am a 20 year old male. If that info helps!

Today at our local mall i was watching little kids play because it just makes me happy to see little kids run around. Well there was this rubber leaf thing all then kids would jump on and i reached over the wall and touched it and it was amazing. but since i was to tall to play in that area i couldnt play on the leaf. i was so jealous of those kids who got to jump on the leaf. my parents only let me go to the mall once a month but i really need to see that leaf. If i cant see it, im gonna lock myself in my room and just ignore the world FOREVER because its all i want in life. Dont judge me, okay? Ugggghhh im having an episode again. Just please, help. i love that leaf so much i want to kidnap and hang it on my wall and look at it. it excites me in many ways i cant understand. Do i need to go get help? or is this normal for teenage boys?

How much time is needed for caffeine to be COMPLETELY out of your system, and does not affect your digestive system any more?
How much time is needed for caffeine to be untraceable from your body?
Is there way to reduce the time, if it's at ANY way possible?

Please note that I'm not talking about the effect of caffeine. I'm talking about the actual chemical staying in your body.

The ammount of caffine is from can of Coca Cola (coke). I'm about 195 lbs, and 5'11, somewhat athletic, if any of these factors matter.
