heres a question.

a year or so back, i decided to try to be a vegitarian for a month. it was allright, but i missed burgers, steaks, etc...

well, my first meal back was a tripple stacker from burger king. needless to say, eating greens for a month, my body was not used to so much fat.

*WARNING, GRAPHIC*

so preety much, my body wasn't able to break up the fat, my stool was loaded with fat molecules floating. and well....i don't need to go farther into detail

i can't remember how long it took for my gallblader to adjust back, weather it was days, weeks, or even a month.i can't remember

so my question is, how long do you guys think it should take??

I'm a little embarress to say this but I'll say it. I'm 13 years old and I WEIGH 150. It's very hard for me to lose weight and I try. It's like, when i try to eat healthy... I end up eating the wrong type of healthyness or too much of it. For ex: I love mashed potatoes with string beans together. But thats unhealthy (well thats what my family says). I'm also a vegetarian too so no meat for me (and i dont want it either). I want to exercise and i do.. i walk for 37 minutes every afternoon per day. But its the eating that gets me. Help me, what should I DO! A 13 year old girl shouldn't weigh this much though it's less than some of my frends weight. Some are the same age but weigh 20 ponds heavier.

I have nerve problems from inguinal hernia surgery. Usually, when I try to exercise, pain shoots up from my testicle (surgical side) to the area of incision and down the top of my thigh.

I have gone through drugs; visits to my surgeon, a urologist, a second surgeon, and a pain center (in Washington DC); and nerve blockers.

We are now starting to talk of pulsed RF ablation because I once got about two weeks relief from one genitofemoral nerve blocker. (I'm going to try it again to see if I get relief again.) My doctor seems hesitant about RF ablation; I am unsure if it's because he does't think it's great or because he has little experience with it.

What can you tell me about the procedure and results for my type of nerve pain?

Is micro-nerve surgery possible for this sort of problem?

Will I eventually need to have a surgeon go in again, rip out the mesh and all the scar tissue it has bonded with, and cut all three of my nerves?

All info is appreciated. Thanks.

I started a new job three weeks ago and two people seem to have taken a dislike to me for some reason. One of them was shouting at me across the office for not doing something but I couldn't as the information required hadn't arrived. Today the boss called me in to ask why wasn't doing my work properly and said they complained about me. I explained the info hadn't arrived and said it was unprofessional for that person to shout at me across the office but that i wouldn't have mentioned it otherwise. I thought this was my dream job and these people are wearing me down with constant niggling. I haven't had any training on the computer system which is very specialised and yet they are moaning when I make a mistake. My previous job was senior but it was abroad. I took this job as I wanted to return home but now my life is a misery. They even made things up that the told the boss. I told him it was rubbish but why should he believe me over them? I don't want another job butwhat can I do?

I'm currnetly using Elidel to treat my eczema. I was told that cortisone creams and such are bad for you. I read that it can cause some terrible side effects, but what are they?

I was just wondering since I have been using this type of cream for a long time now (I've been using Elecon since I was about 5 years old, then switched to Triamcinolone Topical Cream for about 3-4 years, then to Protopic for about 2-3 years, and now Elidel for about 2 years). Is it okay if I have been using it on and off?

I was using it about 5 times a week for 3 weeks, then stopped using it for about 1-2 weeks. Do you guys think that is okay?


I have SEVERE eczema, and my terrible allergies don't help (I'm basically alergic to everything). So if some of you could suggest some other treatments, that would be nice too (but please answer my other questions first)

Any helpful information is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I recently decided to take a break with my boyfriend because he acts depressive and projects his negative feelings onto me (constant criticism, never wants to do anything, etc.) and nothing I ever do makes him happy. I have been trying to convince him to go see a psychiatrist or counselor, because I don't think he can pull himself up on his own. Obviously, I can't do much to help since I seem to be one of the things that makes him depressed/angry. However, he does not want to get help, saying that he just doesn't want to go or doesn't have the money. How do you convince someone that they need to get help for depression? Regardless of whether or not I continue to date him I still care for him and want him to be happy.

I have heard that, if one is trying to diet, it is not advisable to eat while in front of the TV. If that is so, is it also harmful or counter-productive to dieting to read while eating?

I did this a few years ago and it seemed to work.... Just any ideas or suggestions would help.
Ive been working out steady for 4months just cant seem to get my diet right.
If I would only eat grilled chicken either plain or in a salad, with a fat free or lowcal dressing
also eat veggies and a few fruits
only drink diet pop but mostly water
how quickly could I loose this 30lbs I want to get off
this would include about 2 to 3 hours of cardio a week and some strength training

First of all I am 16.
One day I was bored and started playing with my jaw. I liked to open my jaw sideways and the joints will sort of slip out. When i close it, they will slip back in. (Yes, what a fool I am). Now when my joints slipped out, it wont go back in. Each time I open my mouth i get a crack sound.
Then after a day, I had the same problem and attempted to fix it by opening up my mouth with my jaw on a slant again, it got worse. It jammed and took me a few mins to unjam it.
Has anyone ever got this before?
Does it Heal Alone?

Any tips will be apprecianted. Please dont tell me to go see a specialist.
Thanks
