I'm going to get a degree in biochem, and I will take the DATs and get into dental school....while I'm in dental school, can I work as a dental hygenist? Also, do some employers offer to pay the costs of dental school if I offer to work for them in exchange?

Hi.. I would have to be the most untrusting& safe person in the world, but some how I have contracted an std, called Chlamydia.. I have had two encounters both with people I trusted, my ex and my new partner, both whom I made have two std screens before no condoms. My ex and I seperated for two months and in that time he had sex with at least one other person "protected" but there was at the time Chlamydia going around like wild fire in his group of friends, and my current partner had been with two other women "protected"one of them only once and the other only twice. My partner now has been fully std screened and all clear and my ex just calls me a ****, and says he has been and is clear too, it has been about 3.5 months since I had sex with him and I am worried after my std screens came back all clear, do I need another? might I just add I think I am making myself sick with worry, I have body aches, tired, sore back, lower abdo pain swollen glans.. IS THIS ME MAKING MYSELF SICK??

I want my boobs smaller, and, preferably, higher and firmer. I have only ever seen breast implants. My friend had hers reduced and she said hers have the "anchor" scar.

I know really nothing about either reduction or lift. Is it sucessful? How does it even work? Will there be lots of scarring? Any information--much appreciated.

My baby is sick and I took him to the pediatrician and he said he had broncholitist. A couple days later he developed a fever of 102.8 so Irushed him to the hospital. They did a chest X-ray and told me he had RSV. They put him in the hospital and started him on Rocephin, steroids, and oxygen. I am worried because he is only 6 months old. He is on oxygen because his O2 keeps dropping to the 80's. I am just wondering is RSV and bronchiolitist the same thing or are we facing two different infections? And is there anything more they can be doing for my baby?

I recently got some blood work. The lady who took my blood took 4 viles. She left the band around my arm until the last vile was drawn..in the process though she was having trouble getting the blood to flow. I told her that she needed to take the band off in order to get that flow. She refused and sd that the only take if off during the last vile. I told her that my arm was aching and finally she took if off, the blood started to flow and she seemed stuned because of this? Is it procedure to leave the band on the whole time even when drawing that many viles?

Breakfast has to be before 8, lunch has to be between 12 and 1 (any earlier and I'll probably get too hungry before dinner, too late and I won't be hungry enough for dinner and I'll start getting too hungry midday), dinner has to be between 6 and 7, and dessert should be between 8 and 9. If I know I won't have access to my kitchen or a restaurant at one of these times, I'll pack my own meal. I get extremely angry if someone wants to go to dinner at, say, 7:00 (usually the anger is internal--it's not like I yell at my friends). Also, I spend a LOT of time planning my meals. Breakfast and lunch need to be healthy and light (usually not from a restaurant); dinner is more flexible as far as content. I don't snack at all (except for dessert).

I also *have* to exercise every morning.

Most people don't mind if they miss a meal or if they eat a big lunch and aren't as hungry for dinner. I just want to know if anyone else out there shares my obsession and what "normal" people think of it.

I was pleasuring myself yesterday, and today I noticed I have a few cracked sores on the shaft of my member near the head. There are just 2 or 3 and they are small, but they slightly sting and are irritating. I don't think it's herpes. It seems to be the penis analog of dry, cracked lips--you know, like when they get kind of red and look like they are bleeding if you don't moisturize them enough.

Has anyone else experienced a dry, cracked penis, particularly after pleasuring oneself? I'll have to be sure to use moisturizers in the dry, cold months I guess. Last year I had some itching around the genital area and freaked out because I thought it was herpes, but it subsided and now I'm thinking it is just dry skin like itchy arms or legs. I have noticed the area getting white and ashy, I've just never had to tend to it in past years when I was in a warmer and wetter climate.

At 44, I just got my first Rx glasses (polycarbonate rimless), for single vision distance (and -1.75 astigmatism in OD). The prescription seems right on, and I can see everything past 5 feet with incredible clarity (I can't believe how near sighted I was!)

I have gotten more comfortable with the peripheral distortion due to my myopia prescription, but I still often feel the glasses distort how I see things ever so slightly. Some things seem smaller or thinner (though I do see them with AWESOME clarity). And I can at times feel almost a bit of a fish-eye effect. Sometimes too depth perception seems a bit off...?

I have been told this is normal, and that I am simply at the point of just beginning to learn to adapt to looking at the world through artificial lenses, and that I need to be patient for the short learning curve...?

OK, I'm 13 years old, and a girl.

My mom told me soon that the doctors will make me take off my clothes infront of him! I have a phobia of taking my clothes off infront of people. (I'm serious. I freak out and I probably am very dangerous if someone tries to take my clothes off)
WHAT AGE DO THEY MAKE YOU DO THIS? WHY DO THEY MAKE YOU DO THIS? (take off clothes)

Please answer, I am so scared.
