Health - 28 November 2007

I recently had Lasik eye surgery. October 16. And, my eyes have been great since then, 20/15, only hurt the first few days. The whole deal, awesome great, I'm excited. This morning I woke up, and I noticed that it looks like my vision is a little blurry. But, I'm like whatever I got that whole morning thing going on, or there's something in my eye It'll get better. Well now it's the afternoon, and I was like, damn what the poop is wrong with my vision? So I put my hand over my right eye and I'm like, wow, my left eye can see REALLY good. So, I put my hand over my left eye, I can't see a thing. I'm a foot and a half away from this computer and I just covered my left eye and I could barely see what I was typing. Now I know you're probably going to say "call your eye doctor" well I did, and they're rich, so they're on there 4 hour lunch break. If anyone knows anything PLEASE help.

ok im an emotional wreck right now. before you start judging me listen to the story. well today we found out a girl in my grade hung herself. school has been dreadful everyone cried all day and i think its ALL MY FAULT.
this girl, mackenzwas going out with this guy, but he actually liked me and i liked him. so he cheated on her with me. she found out and started hating me and sabatoging my life. she hid my field hockey stuff so i missed the bus and the game, destroyed my pot in ap ceramics, and spread nasty rumors about me. at first i was like ok well i did steal her bf. but then it got outta control and she was ruining my life. so i retalliated. my friends and i made a fb group called i (effin) hate mackenzie and got the school to join, we also wrote on our hands IFHM (i effin hate macken) and got everyone in the school to do the same. so when she got to school it looked like everyone hated her. then we found out she killed herself. it was a mixture of things but mainly (ill continue

i'm so fat and ugly. i can't stand to look at myself because i am so covered in fat. i've tried dieting and i do loads of exercise. there is no medical reason either. why the hell can't i be skinny like everyone else? it's not fair and i just can't live like this anymore! i don't ever look pretty and thin and i can't work out why i'm not looking right. i eat 600 - 800 cals a day and do at least two hours exercise. All my friends are gorgeous and thin and i am the ugly fat one who nobody is ever going to attractive :(

ps sorry i'm ranting on but i just need some one to tell me how to get thinner!

No delusions or departures from reality. Just very distracting colorful visuals. Geometric patterns, flowers and such. It should be noted that I have been a daily cannabis user for over 15 years, but I use nothing else. Is it just time to give up the ganja, or could there be some more sinister neurological or opthamological reason?

A very close family member of mine has paranoid schizophrenia. It has been going on for several years. It is to the point that we may have to force medical treatment upon this person with legal tactics.

Sometimes this person is completely normal and it's just like the good old days (which is so heartbreaking), then other times they'll be asking me questions about if I know of people who have been in the house, stealing their things.... Believing that the neighbors are taking things and moving them around the house (even though the neighbors have never been over). Then the next day its forgotten about and not discussed, as if it never happened, and this person is back to normal. Its much worse than that, those are just examples

With medical treatment, how treatable is it? I love this person so much and can't bare to think of them like this for the rest of their life. I can tell that they're not happy. I know when they were happy in life and I'd love for them to be in that place again

I had been on the Orthra evra patch for 18 months. In feb and may of this year I had 2 periods in one month. Then starting in August of this year I kept getting my period every 2 weeks, with slight breakthrough bleeding from time to time. I was tested with a synogram and had a hysterscopy performed.

After this surgery I didn't use any type of birth control and refrained my sexual intercourse.

After the surgery I got my period the next day, it lasted about 5 days and then I had my next period almost 31 days later.

On the first day of this cycle I interted the Nuva Ring. About 5 days after my period began, i began experiencing break through bleeding and cramping.

So now i feel like im about start my period again and have break through bleeding, could this be the result of using birth control in general?

Now my question is my calf muscles on my legs and in front hurt so painfully, and my arm muscles always feel like a heavy load when I walk especially in the cold weather. I feel like a leaden weight and have to force myself to walk. I do have arthritis, and don't warm up before walking. Could this be soemthing else?

Several people have told me recently that most fruits contain too much sugar for you and you can get all the nutrients found in fruits from vegetables anyway, then suggested that i cut fruits out of my diet. But I have always been told fruits were really healthy. Anyone know anything about this?

Alright I want to know if there is anything I can do to limit stress. I have had 2 ER trips because of high blood pressure and am only 17. I figure my BP is caused by my stress. My dad has suffered from hypertension since he was 20. I have looked up causes to high BP and most of the things I do not do. I am active, have a decent diet and no longer take much caffeine. So my question is why am I stressed? I am never stressed about a certain something, I am just stressed all the time. Little things don't bother me and most big things don't either. I don't worry about much at all. I just don't get why I am stressed.

im 14 and have a little bit of a "belly" and veryy small "bingo wings" i want to get rid of by xmas...

so im not looking to lookse a massive amount of weight... just turn some excess fat into muscle :o)

im eating more healthily and each night im doing things that i would normally do in a warm up at my dancing class... like jogging on the spot whilst pumping my arms up and down for around 6 mins... attempting to keep my arms outstreched for a whole song (3 mins approx) without putting them down.... and around 50-70 stomach crunches.

is this enough to loose my small amount of excess fat?

thanks :o)
