Health - 4 December 2007

Ok, so I was in the weight room today at my school, and a friend of mine who never lifts, and claims he doesn't like to lift could curl more than me. We was doing curls, we was seein who could curl the most.. he could do the 55 pounds in each hand 3 times, I could only do it once. Im a little meaty, kinda built like a football player, with muscle.. anyways.. I work out monday wensday and friday, I do curls, hammer girls, and then the wrist squeezing things.. I plan on doing alot more soon, for chest etc.. anyways, how come he can lift more than me if he never works out... and I do? It's been bothering me all day... are some people just naturally more strong?

What is the best way of dealing with fear and anxiety? I have irrational fear over plenty of things- I am also indiscisive regarding descisions that will affect my future. I also fear fear itself

would you go if you were me??? i don't want to go because last time was so embarrassing. the teacher is an unfeeling male. so he will not give any sympathy or tell me to sit out today.

My husband has an allergy to cats. It's always been annoying for him, but lately its been much worse. My mother and my sister each have cats in their home and we are always reluctant to go there because of his allergy. We go to my sister's house often in the summer because we hang out outside. We were invited for Christmas Eve this year and we really want to go. My husband is scared because benedryl somewhat works, but it makes him so sleepy. He claims that OTC claritan doesn't work. Any advise?

Also, can cat allergies get worse with age? He just turned 30, and for the past year or so his allergy seems much worse. We picked up something at my mom's house yesterday and were only there fore 5 minutes when he started burning up and his eyes were itchy and his throat was scratchy. It used to be that this would only happen after hours of being somewhere.

She said that she had some sort of discharge that was a real dark blood color.. but it wasn't runny like blood, it was a chunk.
She already had her follow up, and we were curious, is it just a blood clot?
Please, don't reply just so that you can rant about how terrible abortion is. I'm not asking anyone's opinion on the situation, I'm asking about my friend's state of health. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Each time I need a refil, my consistantly takes between 3-5 days to send a simple fax back...this means I have to go several days without medication.

For whatever reason, she writes short prescriptions, so I either have to keep going back to the Dr or ask for refils (as she suggest I do!!), but she is painfully SLOW.

Is this common??

I dont know what is wrong with me but it is really getting me down.. I have emetophobia, a phobia of vomit. and this time last year i was really bad, the doctors sent me to see a cognitive behavior therapist and things started to get alot better. I am still petrified of sick, but not even half as bad as i was. But a couple of months ago i lost 2 stone and stopped eating a lot. i went to the doctors and they couldn't find anything wrong. i then started getting a horrible watery mouth and pains in right side and my rib feeling bruised. The doctor sent me for a scan and found that there was nothing wrong there. doctors put me on lapronzonole. and they have stopped the watery mouth. but my rib still hurts. i then had a miscarriage. and since then i have had a headache and feel dizzy. today i feel really down and miserable.. i have been to the doctors again. but they said to get my eyes checked to which i did. I also get a achy back and my neck hurts. i struggle to get too sleep and to wake

I've heard somewhere that taking powder protein suppliment could damage liver (or other parts of body?). With the liver, meaning, that the liver has to work "overtime", therefore could be harmful in the long run? Please help, because I am into drinking my whey protein powder drinks to help maintain and build muscle since I work out. Thanks!!

The alternatives can be so expensive that it would be great to know if some of the substitutes taste better than others.

I recently had breast augmentation surgery/breast lift (circular lift) with Dr. Cruise, and I was wondering if anyone has had this procedure done with him and did you have any complications? If so, how did he address them?

My child is currently taking a steroid based inhaler as well as steroid from the singulair. She is asthmatic. She takes two 'puffs' of the inhaler (advair) in the morning and again at night. Also at night she takes one chewable singulair tablet. It has been about 4 or 5 weeks since we've started this regimen. I have noticed that she went from being a mild mannered little angel to a screaming demon. She is more aggressive, in as much as hitting, pushing, and yelling at her sister and even myself. The difference in her behavior is completely obvious. She went from being a fairly easy going child to being a high strung and aggressive child. Could this be caused by this medicine? She literally will 'attack' you if you don't comply with her requests, she's NEVER done things like that. I am unsure what to do. I think maybe she's OVER medicated and it agitates her. Can anybody tell me what may cause this Jeckyl and Hyde behavior?

I am a Lupus patient. Every now & then I get a sharp burning pain in one of my toes. This is usually something I can tolerate, & then it disappears within a week or two. For the past couple weeks I have had intense excrutiating pain on the ball of my right foot, & in my right toes as well as the left ones. It's a burning pain coming from within. The areas are red, appear swollen, & the discomfort I feel is relieved by squeezing my foot. if I stay off my feet for about 30 minutes, the pain goes away but as soon as I move around again I'm in tears because it hurts so much. What is this? This has been going on too long & I am irritated that I am suddenly so immobile.
