if you keep food in a closet, and it gets moldy, and then you throw it away and close the closet, will the clothes inside the closet be contaminated with mold? even if they don't smell moldy?

also, i've had a cough for a really long time and i went to the doctor, who gave me allergy meds. all i have is a dry cough, no other allergy symptoms. is this b/c of mold?

Ok, So I am 5'8" and I weigh 154.
I have gained 20 lbs in a year and recently gained 12 lbs in 2 months because of a new birth control.
I would like to lose this weight in 3 or 4 months. (Hard I know).
I would love any suggestions. Or even ways I can motivate myself. I hate having this weight on me!!
Also, I am a college student so dieting is more difficult for me than it may seem.

My wife has daily disabling migraine attacks. She wakes up every day with a migraine.... some days are worse than others.... but she basically has no life, and things have been getting worse. We discovered some time back due to a routine dental procedure that Nitrous Oxide at the dentist's office eliminates her migraines for the rest of the day.

I'd like to know if it is even possible to get approved/certified or a prescription of this for home use to alleviate her horrible pain. She has been unable to work now for 5 years, has seen many doctors for the migraines... has been hospitalized for it, has had shots, preventatives, interventive drugs.... but there has been nothing that has really done much for her.

This is a really big deal and we are grasping at straws. Any help is appreciated.

Please help! Ok, I started taking the Depo shot on May 06th, 07, when I started taking it the doctor told me that it may take a year to get pregnant and my period will stop. I had no problems, after three months I started bleeding again, for about a week(10 weeks after my first shot). I went in for my second shot on July 30th, 07 and was told to come in for my third shot in 10 weeks. At the start of September I started Craving food like crazy, I had stomach cramps, I was VERY tired, I gained weight, I felt sick all the time(no vomiting), and I was spotting. My first thought was "OMG I am pregnant!" then I thought "Maybe its the Depo shot..?" I desided to stop taking the Depo shot. I have yet to have a period and I am still having symtoms!! All test (Blood and EPT) say I am not pregnant, but I still FEEL pregnant! I kind of hope I am pregnant now, my husband and I now want a baby. But no doctor will give me a sonogram without a positive test! I just don't want to be 8months when I know!

So i'm on the Birth Control Pill, i start my period 7 full days early. But it's extremely light, barely enough to use a tampon. The color changes from brownish to pinkish. It continues a week then i start flowing normally on the day im supposed to get my period.

The strange part, i suddenly start flowing extraordinarily heavy. I went through a super-plus tampon in less than 50 minutes. It went through to my pants and everything. When i went to the bathroom and removed the tampon a HUGE clot came out, bigger than i'd ever seen before...

This past week has been more stressful than any time in my life (personal) and i threw up several times, i didn't eat for a week, and was just extremely stressed. All of those can affect a period...

It's been about 24 hours and the bleeding has lightened, but i'm still passing clumps. Which have been practically non-existant since i went on the pill about 8 months ago.

I am sexually active.

I had a fracture in my ankle about 3 months ago. When I got my leg brace off a month ago it felt pretty good. But now my ankle is starting to hurt again.

I don't really want to go to my doctor, so is there anything I can do around home to "re-heal" my ankle? (like keeping it warm or cold)

I got in an accident two days ago, i'm fine just had a concussion and have to be checked by a spinal doctor tomorrow, so until then i am wearing a neck brace, just to be safe. i am having trouble sleeping with the brace on and i woke up feeling really nauseated. Do you think it's just coincidental?

He's had a sore throat since yesterday, and it was itchy on Tuesday. Later this afternoon he started losing his voice and coughing up some mucus, and when he coughs his chest hurts, and it sounds like the "smoker's cough". He is not congested, nor does he have a headache or any other pains. Any ideas on what this could be?

okay everyone says boobs are fatty tissue so whats clevage. also people say work out or eat more to get boobs. people never say what to eat etc. also im not sure that works. do naturally really thin people just never get boobs?this might not make any since what so ever but ,when you stand to the side (girls) you have a "side boob" visible sometimes when you where tank tops and lift up your arms. (not the fat that you try to get rid it's actually boob.) how come i have a "side boob" but no clevage???(like when you press you boobs together) i dont have that. will i ever get clevage???!!! im just basically flat with side boobs!!! lol i dont know how else to describe it.
