I know this question might sound funny, but I'm being very serious. My farts smell awful, nearly everyday. It's really embarrasing when a co-worker walks into my office after I've relieved myself.

I'm sure it's diet related, I'm a sugar addict. Is there any way to get less stinky farts?

I am wondering...
i have been on the depo for 6 months now.. My last shot was Aug. 30 and I was due 2 weeks ago now.. I have have some spotting/bleeding the entire time i was on it.
Now starting earlier this week it seems like i have my full period already!
If this is the case am is it possible for me to get preg right away? I know ive heard stories that it can take 6 months to 2 years... anyone out there that got preg right after their missed shot??
I never really had any side effects/symptoms from the shot other than the irregular bleeding..
Help.. I'm TTC, and dont want it to take forever!!

Ok I have a dental abcess, its severly infected, went to the dentist they gave me a antibotic shot and some antibotic pills, been taking them like I am suppose to but I am not feeling to well. I am a insulin dependent diabtiec and kinda worried that maybe the infection has spread. My jaw is still swollen and I am sick to my stomach, body aches kinda feels like the flu. Should I be worried or is this normal? My sugars have been running a little higher then normal 170-220 range since this happened. Just worried that maybe I should call the denist again. Any thoughts?

My eyes are not bad, I am 20/20 but I have an astigmatism so until recently, they never made contacts that I could wear. I usually only wear my glass when I drive at night, play sports or go to a show. But this last time at the optometrist they told me that they made contacts now, so I decided to try them. With them in, it seems that I really don't see any better than without them, though I probably do. My question though pertains to my periferal vision. It seems that things seem really fuzzy at the edges of my vision, not just my normal fuzzyness, but really, really fuzzy. Is this normal?

me and my boyfriend had some amazing sex last night without a condom (ive been on birthcontrol and he never acctually went so thats not the problem) but it went on for like at least 2 hours but now my vagina really hurts on the outside. it feels like a needles going through the skin. im guessing its because for a while we didnt bother lubbing it up enough and it was kinda hard to get it in. but anyways...is there anything i can do to make the sorness go away? and acctually...we had butt sex for the 1st time too and thats really sore as well..any remedies for that? (yeah we were kinda drunk so thats why all of this happened haha)

I live way out in the boonies. I am way too far from the city now to have city water, so I have well water that flows to my shower and sinks. This water isn't treated with floride, but to my knowledge no one has gotten sick from the well. The water is very hard and a lot of people who use the well use water softeners to treat the water before they shower or wash clothing in it, but I don't. It certainly tastes better than the city water I grew up on. Should I be concerned about the safety of my well water and the lack of water treatment? Could the extra minerals be bad for my hair or general heath? Shoul I be concerned about bacterial and fungal growth in the water?

I am a healthy female in my mid twenties. I have never had any health problems or anything. However, in the last 8 months (since May), i have had Pneumonia 2 times and Broncitis 2 times. I now have a cold that is starting to get worse like all the other times durng the last 8 months.

Everytime i go to the doctor, they just give me antibitoics, etc. It takes me about 4 weeks to get all the way better again. They dont seem to be concerned that i am getting so many respitory problems lately.But i cant help but be concerned, because it is interfering with my life and work.

I am exposed to second hand smoke at work, but i have been exposed to it for the last 4 years, and i am just now getting sick this year, so i dont know if it is related or not.

it seems, that evrything is just turning against me, no matter how hard i try, and everytime i am happy it just gets taken away from me and replaced with something more hurtfull, i just want to just for once not have to fight for everything, i just want to not have the responsibility for once, i want someone to care about me and think about me, instead of it always being vice versa

i feel like i am having a mental breakdown, i feel trappd and i want to break free. and yes i know i am selfish and self centered for thinking like this, guess ill get punished for this too. none of my friends are true friends they just want to use me and all i do is give and give and i just want a friend in return

i live in a very small town, so i cant make friends, boys are only intrested in me for a while, then they just hate me. i dont want to go on with this life of mine, i want to escape and get away, but i cant because i have to look after everybody else and no one else even notices me ever

I just started Ditropan 5 mg about 6 days ago and am still not noticing much relief from going to the bathroom. I don't have any problem during the night - just all day. Does anyone know how long it takes before you start getting relief and do you think it may take a larger dose such as 10 - 15 mg. Thanks.
