I'm really curious. My Aunt is a massage therapist and said no, but most other people I talk to say yes! So, which is it: Yes or No? Please explain your answer =) Thanks!

I like pain no matter what! I like being in a place where I can be abused or hurt. But sometimes I want to be in a place where I am loved which is rare for me. Of course my wrists are cut, whats up with this?

Is it a good idea and will it make a difference? I've heard that white fillings are supposed to be better than the other amalgam (i think that's the dentistry name for it).

I've read another post on this site, and I have 100% faith with my dentist. I'd only get one done at a time instead of an overhaul. I want to get two of my back teeth done anyway, as I've got a bit of soreness there anyways and I have a feeling there is decay underneath the filling.

Apart from that, I was wondering whether or not other people have to wear mouthguards that they can get from their dentists, as I think that I grind my teeth in my sleep. My father had the same problem, but I don't know if I do. I know grinding causes the filling to crack.

Any help would be most appreciated. Do white fillings last longer than the metal ones?xxx

Yeah, I'm allergic to apples, peaches,plums, cherries, bananas, broccoli, celery especially, cucumbers, however I'm only allergic to them when they're raw. Oh and nuts too, but raw or cooked I'm allergic. I get a really itchy throat, and when i eat celery i get extremely swollen eyes and lips, and when i eat nuts i get hives on my face and neck.

I sort of had this happen recently when I was with a guy. He said that he wasn't used to being with someone with my skill level and that he orgasmed too soon as a result. Does this really sometimes happen?

I started birth control. I was on it for a month and had a schedualed period. It was very light and last about 2 days. This month is was the same way. The only reason I even know Im on my period is because whe I take out a tampon there is brown blood on it. Is this normal? I am sexually active..

I'm looking for causes to breast cancer in particular. Or, if you have another good reason why you think you may have gotten it, please share. Also, how did you find out you had the cancer and how did you try to treat it?

I will first be going to my OB/GYN. Last October I had a blood test done to check my hormone level. Doc said things were fine (whatever "fine" means). Do you think he will have me tested again? Can things change that fast? My stress level has gone up since that time but not that much. Can this be regulated by diet or are taking hormonal supplements the only answer. I really don't want to put that crap in my body. Since having my child 10 years ago, I have had regular periods until a couple of months ago. About a week after my regular period, I start to spot. I will be going to the Dr. in the next couple of days.

I am 41 and in good health

I had a c-section over seven months ago. I lost a lot of weight except the belly fat. Prom and senior trip is coming up soon. The dress that I want for prom requires a flat or close to flat stomach. I've been trying exercises to lose weight; However, stomach execises make my stomach swell up. What can I do to flatten this jelly belly?

Just over a week ago I found a lump in my right breast, I went to the doctor and she sent me for a mammogram and an ultrasound. The mammo showed a very dense area in the area of concern, the ultrasound was normal. There is quite obviously a palpable lump so my doctor has refered me to a specialist for a biopsy.
I usually trust my gut instincts in this kind of situation, I am telling my family that everything is ok and the test will show that the lump is benign, but deep down I have this nagging feeling that this could be bad. I think when I'm telling them that all is ok I'm trying to convince myself allso.
I thought mammograms and ultrasound would show if it was cancer, has anyone else been through this ? Should I trust my instincts I am really terrified ( even though I am putting on a big "I am fine" show for the family)
I am only 28 and I have 3 kids that were breast fed, this should go in my favor right?
I would apreciate any advise on this topic.
Thanks
