Can someone get infected these types of disease if he/she eats foods (from restaurants or cafes) like salad, fresh fruits or fruit juices or sweet dishes where heat is not involved. Recently I got an e-mail saying that a boy got infected with AIDS after eating pipeapple which he bought on his way home from a vendor (the vendor is an AID patient and he had a cut on his finger while cutting the pineapple and his blood spread into the fruit)

For the last several years, I have experienced what I can only desribe as experiencing irrational thoughts. I know that they are not true but yet I still perceive them as true to some extent apparently. They seem to change from time to time and vary greatly. Below is a list of irrational thoughts that I have experienced in the past and and up until now.

1. I can be sitting at a restaurant and wonder why people are eating.

2. I can't believe children can speak when they are young.

3. I don't think people have to remove solid waste from their body.

They are just random things that I fixate on for a period of time then I seem to find a new one to think about. I don't normally think about it if I am busy with working. I seem to think of the thoughts when I am alone and just sitting in my bedroom. I have suffered with severe depression and several anxiety issues for probably 15 years of my life. Could I have a form of schizophrenic disorder? Any thoughts?

At my school, there is this program where we have to create projects on a certain topic that will make a difference in our community. My topic is public health but that is so broad and i don't know what to do it on.
I was thinking about doing it on something like unhealthy food like mcdonalds and perhap school lunches but what can i do with that?
any other subject on public health is fine, thats like the only one i know about
please give me suggestions on ideas for projects. i want to make a big difference somewhere but i don't know where to start
thanks

I've noticed recently that I appear to have an annoying lack of confidence when speaking in front of others, and it obviously affected my speech presentation.
I'll go into unintentional nervous breakdowns even though I know what to say and start getting a raspy, shaky voice. It's embarrassing and annoying!

for instance this morning in class we were required to bring an object. I brought an antique white owl figure, and placed it on the desk when it was my turn to present. I could not articulate what I wanted to say. I don't know if it was nerves, the 25 mg of Prozac for panic disorder mostly, not depression (only my 4th week), or the vistaril I took to soothe me.
Now I know I'll avoid vistaril though. It made me real sleepy.
My topic was morbid. The intention was to express my positive connection with something that represents death. After the suicide of my great grandfather due to failure, his eldest daughter (my grandmother) was given a little owl as a reminder of him. My great grandfather always spoke of how owls were mythologically beautiful.
Although I never met him, I feel spiritually attached for many reasons. 1, we both seem to be the only artists in the family (he painted, wrote, and sculpted), 2nd we shared the same birthday, 2 he suffered from extreme depression/panic. I can't believe the only family member I can identify with is deceased.
Sounds creepy. What's even odder is that I dreamt of him when I was about 11. In my dream I was a child clutching his arm, dreading the fact that the funeral car was coming for him. When it came, I begged "don't leave me, take me." All he said was "go back inside, not yet."(of course I wasn't going to bring up the dream, that's pretty private. I'm just using the dream to show the impact he has had in my life)
Going back to the owl, I wanted to describe how the owl was like a torch when all is dark. It reminds me that taking drastic measures will never rid you of problems. In the end those who you leave behind are wounded.
Was this insane to even bring up in class?
He did specify to bring something were emotionally attached to....something significant.
I just completely lost my concentration and the transition of idea to idea.
It was ******* humilated.
People even pointed out that I looked nervous.
I slured my words, stop mid-sentence out of nowhere and not know what to say.
I don't want to show up to class anymore. And sadly, I've got another final upcoming speech.
I want to put myself out of my misery.
I'd really appreciate suggestions as the problem has been nagging me.

Ok, red rash on his belly, flaky, scabby skin, hair loss, horrible fleas. I used baby oil on his dry skin (vet recommended). dawn on fleas (also vet recommended). Also, I use advantage, but they still aren't going away, and I don't bathe him a lot. I already know that will dry out his skin more. He already has a vet appointment, but if anyone knows what could be wrong with him let me know. thanx

Well, I do this powerlifting program that is meant to get you strong in a short period of time. I've been doing it for quite a while now and I've noticed some fabulous gains! My raw squat has increased for 50 pounds, my raw bench increased by 30 pounds, and I'm really happy with it. However, I do understand the risks involved in too much maxing. It could hurt my knees or tear my pecs but...

Do you have any alternative routine that is a little safer but still fairly effective?

If your doctor finally asked you after four years
"What do you think about going ahead and filing for disability?"

What would you do? I've been off since Oct 17 th with a broken wrist. I worked the week of Oct 10th, but had missed the two prior weeks due to severe bronchitis.

I've had trips to the doc almost every month ths year. And I'm on my fourth year of constant tracking back and forth to the doctors.


Would you go ahead and retire now...while you have already missed so much time? I hear you have to be out like two months before you can start paperwork.

This is my family doc who made the suggestion. I didn't ask or hint at this. HE came up with it ALL BY HIMSELF!!!
My rhumetologist told me this spring that since I was only 42, I'd probably too young to get disability on the basis of FM. He did say he'd help me on the basis of bulging disks in my back.

Would you take the family doctor's suggestion as a turning point? And will this help me get a check?

I live practically in the middle of no-where on a property (of course) and I want to get fitter and stronger, concentrating on the strenght aspect.

The town doesn't have a gym, it's a hole really (geez, I'm typing this at a friends place, sad eh?). All I have is a pushie and an *unlimited* amount of space to ride on, but is this enough to get me stronger and get some fitness about me?

I'm in a bit of a pickle. Some help please guys?

My son was diagnose with a UTI earlier this month. We stayed in the hospital for 2 days. He was given antibiotics. Well, he is scheduled for an x-ray tomorrow. To see if he has a bladder reflux. His ultrasound came out normal. However, this is the thing I am asking. His urine is smelling more awful (sign of infection), really sensitive to wipes or anything touching him around his "thingy". Now, do you think his UTI got much worse and should I notify his doctor when we go to get his x-ray...or should I just leave it alone? I don't know what to do.

I'm 16 years old and I've had these bumps on my scrotum since I was eleven or twelve. They then began to appear on the lower half of my shaft when I was thirteen. These bumps are not all the same. Some are round, some are a haphazard shape. They're not in monotonous sequences but rather random in order, shape, and size. They don't hurt, unless I try and pop one, which I cannot do. They don't change. Once they appear, they stay in the exact formation. They're white. Kind of glossy looking. I hate them. Can they be removed?

Well after having good ct scans for the last 4 years I have 4 small spots on my right lung that came back positive for cancer. So now I have to start chemo again. I am so scared I am going to die.

A week ago I had a cold, and while that seems to have cleared up, the area right above my left eye hurts so much now. It feels like sinus pain in the area and the pain pulsates and radiates through that entire side of my head.

Right now it feels especially horrible and I'd like to get rid of the pain. Any good remedies to help with the pressure/pain feeling? Would tea help, or maybe something like Tylenol/Ibuprofen?

My fiance had his vasectomy done 14 yrs a go, now as we planned to get married next year and start new family, he'll get his vas reversal sometimes by the end of this year. What become my concerned is the chance for us to have babies, as he had vasectomy 14 yrs a go and from what I've read the chance is slim. I also want to know where we could have the vas reversal done with decent cost as here in the UK it's cost about £ 2000, some friends recommend us to get done in Singapore (any info abt that?!) Cuz they have some good doctors and we travelling to Singapore quite often. Do u have any story that or info that might help us somehow?!

Thank you!!!

So I have been working out non stop and I am trying to find a healthy way to support my muscle growth. I have looked into creatine, amino acids, proteins. I'm new to the "enhancement" thing and I don't want to take anything that is going to hurt me or cause "shrinkage" of other male parts. As I said, I'm new and I've heard stories. So a natural way to gain muscle mass and support growth of athletic ability. Anyone got any ideas.
