hi, how are you?
i want to ask you if i can jump rope because im really stressed out right now
my friends and i compared our heights and she was similar or 1cm taller than me
this might sound a little weird, but i feel like going crazy, and moreover im sweating
if i could do some intense exercise now like jumping 4000 times?

would stretching intensely and often help me get back on the road?

is there any fast-growing techniques you know that would give me a better idea of myself?
are growth hormone pills any reliable, possibly from shoppers drug mart?

i sent it to a really close doctor i know, he's not official anymore in this region
he thinks that im really smart and possibly wise, and also believes that im good at everything and have a good, bright personality and an extremely good memory
i haven't told him about my mental issues, but does this email kind of give it away?

he replied every email that i've sent, but not this one
is he avoiding to reply because im mentally ill, so it's better to leave me alone or is it that he thinks that im joking around with him?
it's been a few days and i know he won't reply any sooner, maybe a few years later by a chance

I really don't want to take medication for it, because of what antibiotic etc do to your body. So how can I get rid of it naturally?
The symptoms are: Peeing frequently and often with blood. Sometimes it hurts other times not really
I'm not sure whether it is the bladder or kidneys or something between.
I'm objected to man made drugs, but if I don't find something that works naturally, then of course I'll got to the doctor and get something. I'm not stupid. .So please don't give me all this stuff about getting to the doctor right away.
Thanks in advance to all the people who prefer the natural way!

I have a very noticeable pain in my chest for almost 15 hours now and it seems to be right in the middle of my chest where my heart is. It seems to get worse when I pick up heavy things or move the wrong way. It is the only symptom I am having so I know it's not a heart attack. Pls. help..:(

What if you were on your period and you touched the Quran? Is there a punishment for this? What if you were with a good intention? Like you didnt mean to do anything bad? Can you touch the Quran if you are only reciting it? Or what if you have an ireegular period? What will happen do that person on the DAY OF JUDGEMENT?

I have this moisturizer, I know Eucerin is a very good brand, but I tore off the labaels on the dispenser/bottle and I have acne, so I was wondering whether this product is noncomedogenic or not...?

When i was 8 i went to the hospital because i kept going to the toilet too much to pee. I was checked up etc and i had to go back again in 6 months but we moved and the toiletting passed so we didnt bother. 5 years on, While at the hospital for that the doctor asked if i had had any previous illnesses and my mum told him about the toilet thing and he said we need to get it checked up. i went for a ct scan the other week and apparently i have an adrenal mass which has grown since i was 8. I've had 2 blood tests.. Which i am scared of.. And what can adrenal masses do to you? Can you die from them?
And how can you calm yourself down about blood tests?
Thanks

Say there was blood on an object. ex: a wall or on a table or even on the sidewalk. and that blood had HIV on it and you happen to scrape your arm across that and the skin broke and you touched that blood. Is it possible to contract HIV through this? I've never had this happened to me but if i did what would i expect?

I was wondering is this normal ? has anyone else experienced this? If so how long did it take for the swelling to go down ? was there anything that aided you in calming the swelling faster ?

I am 19 years old. I am a hypochondriac, I suffer from OCD and an acute phobia of HIV.

I am a virgin, waiting for marriage. I have never used HIV drugs. My parents are completely healthy.

My concern today is...I just had this terrible itching on my leg and I looked and it is a tiny less than half an inch slit in my skin on the front on my thigh and it itches so so bad. I took my loufah and put some soap on it and scubbed it. however, I am worried because what if someone cut me with an HIV infected sharp object and this is HIV????

Please help!

I am having major problems right now.

I am currently in counseling for my fears. I have only endured about 2 sessions so far.


Please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this an HIV infected cut?

I wasn't around anyone whom I didn't know. The only 2 people I was around are my two best friends who wouldn't do this to me.

Other than that, I don't recall anyone pricking or cutting me unless I was asleep last night...however the door was locked.

I get a really sharp pain right in the centre of my chest, a little to the left. It lasts for about 5-10 minutes, and during that time I can hardly breathe or move more than a few millimetres because the pain becomes too intense for me (and I can usually deal with pain very well). It goes away almost as quickly as it starts up, and it isn't really affected by eating, laughing or leaning over my laptop for long times. It's happened about 3 times in the last 5 days, each time becoming increasingly painful. I'm 17, and I don't smoke. A friend has suggested chewing an aspirin, but I'm allergic to them. It definitely doesn't feel like heartburn.
People keep telling me to go to the doctors, but I've already been twice in the last month for unrelated things and I don't want to seem like a hypochondriac! What's up?

Its happening more and more lately and I can't take it anymore. We have a 4mth old baby together so it really needs to stop. I've tried to be supportive, I tried to be firm but nothing seems to work. He knows he has a problem and does want to change but can't seem to take those steps. How can I help him? I live in Australia.

Ok so my husband has been sick since Wednesday. The only major symptom is he feels nausea like he always wants to vomit. He has had the poops everytime he eats. Our family doctor wouldn't see us until he'd been like this for 3 or more days and today being Saturday we can't get in to see him. My husband also feels severe fatigue after 11hrs of sleep. We have ruled out any type of food poisoning cause he hasn't had any unpasterized foods or milk products in over 36hrs and he hasn't vomitted at all through this.
Anyone have any ideas on what it could be?
My husband does work outside everyday as a trucker who pumps port-o-lets and sometimes the frigid cold gets to him but this has just got us baffled.
Any ideas please?

I had found a site that gave a list of all foods and their calories by simple search. It had nothing to do with any kind of diet plan you could join, etc. I simply can't remember what site, and have tried to find it by search, but haven't had any success. Does anyone know of such a site?
