Sanitry towels, tampons etc..?
We have no choice to have periods, so why should we have to pay to use pads. Shouldn't they be free to all women?

I always feel drowsiness throught the day. Not even a nap can refresh my drowsiness. It is wierd. But to start out say I sleep 8 hours and as I wake up I don't feel refresh. I start to get drowsy all over again and need to sleep. Then when I finally get up I start to get drowsy and have a tendency to sleep again. I also feel lethargic and low energy. My muscle seem to feel weak too! Like I lost strength in my arms. What concerns me is I don't know what caused this. I've seen many doctors which includes a sleep specialist, psychologist, and a psychiatrist. They did many test and still haven't found out the cause. They prescribe me Provigil and I still feel drowsy even with that medicine in effect. Think of it as me not alert, but my heart is beating as if I were active but as for me feeling drowsy and need to sleep. I was also giving a CPAP machine I've used it for 5 months now and the drowsiness still attacks me. What can I do? Any information can be helpful. Thanks.

I got hit in the face with a my car door, and my cheek and nose are bruised. It's really embarrissing cuz on of my friends spread the rumor that my boyfriend hit me, which he would NEVER do, he has never even yelled at me, anyway, how long before this embarrissing bruise goes away, and what stages will it go through while healing (I mean what will it look like)

A couple months ago, I developed ringworm on my leg that starting becoming surrounded with decent-sized blisters (not boils). At first, my doctor believed it was MRSA that was contracted through the ringworm. But when tests came back, another doctor told me that I was negative for MRSA and that it was just a staph infection.

She perscribed me to meds that cured both the ringworm and the blisters, although the area in which the blister/ringworm was looks as if it were bruised (barely visible today)

But a couple days ago, I noticed a single blister near my armpit no more than a quarter of an inch wide. At first, it hurt much as the staph blisters on my leg did has since developed a scab and doesn't hurt much at all.

Here are my concerns:

Could this be MRSA? Even though my doctor told me it wasn't, a recent MRSA cover-up I heard about has me worried as well as many surrounding schools infected with it.

What are the symptoms of MRSA and how deadly is it?

I've been ill for two days and now I have a tingly feeling above my lips. Its slightly red and not really that visible yet. I've had it before when I was younger, but I wasnt sure whether it was a cold sore or not because it formed all the way around my mouth. When I was younger it was exactly like it is now but it got worse because it then turned into this ring of dry, tingly scabby-looking thing around my mouth. So does anyone know what I have? And will it go away soon? What should I do to treat it?

I might have RA. I have a doc's apt on monday to find out. It effects my hands, knees, toes and elbows. Does any one know of anything other than exersize, glucosamine, chondroitin, yucca and msm (I do all of these things) that help with joint function and pain manigment? I have heard of avacados and soy helping. Has anyone else heard of this? Thanks in advance.

What would be a fit or perfect weight by your opinion for someone who is 5'4. Also what do you think of a girl who had the measurements 33C-24-37?

I think they are either hives or a heat rash. Not very severe and I have no idea what the cause was. Possibly cold weather.

I have 6 blotches on my chin (about 4mm diameter). That's it. So it's not bad enough to take medication for. Just wondering how long will it last, approximately, if I just leave them?

I've had them for 2 days now.

They also 'disappear' when I am asleep (I wake up with a clear face) and then reappear in the next hour or so, only to last all day.

Has anyone experienced fluctuating vision after RK surgery. My right eye fluctuates dramatically. Both eyes were overcorrected and I needed sutures. Sutures were removed from right eye and it has fluctuated ever since. I went from near-sighted to very far-sighted in that eye. Thanks.

Please explain to me in words that I can understand what could that be or lead to:
fatty liver, hypoechoic nodule 4.5 x 22 x 26 mm in size. there is some through-transmission suggesting this represents a complex cyst or adjacent cysts.

My point/question: is this a cirrhosis type? or cancer type? or Hepatocellular Carcinoma type? or something else?

I appreciate your answer.

My girlfriend's boobs are REALLY sore at the moment,and no,she's not pregnant,(according to her) she's PMSing.She has crapms and moodiness and all the other PMS symtoms,but it's the tenderness of her breasts that's especially bad.She told me they hurt if she touches/squeezes them,or even if she hugs someone.

Just yesterday we were playing soccer and the ball hit her there. She yelped and looked to be in severe pain:-(

I hate seeing the girl I love in pain(especially a lot of it).Are breasts really that tender?Is there anything I can do (as a boyfriend) to make my girl's PMS easier on her(and her boobs:p)?

Thanks for answering everyone!:D
