alright, a little about me first. im bisexual, im 16, and i was sexually abused when i was little. ok.. so my mom, and some of my other friends seems to think that since i was sexually abused by my grandfather for many years when i was younger ( it lasted for about 5/6 years and it finally ended last year ) that its the reason why i am not bisexual.. is this true? I feel like it has NOTHING to do with it, and yet she insists thats is the reason for it. I forgave my grandpa for doing this to me and still see him once in a while, and even though it still hurts sometimes to see him because it reminds me of it it does not affect my life at all. umm.. if you need more information you can e-mail me and id be glat to provide you with any other needed information! lol but yea i was just wondering if they are right.. if it is possable for this abuse to lead me to become bisexual. thanks! <3
by the way im not afriad of guys because of this. i have a boyfriend currently and love him to death.

We can transmit just about everything over the internet to the point where we expect a live response. So, why not a cold or flu virus. The virus would go to your finger tips onto the keys of the keyboard and as you type, the germs are transmitted at the same time. You pick them up when you access your keys after logging in to the website, like you are doing now.. Is this possible?

Hey I'm 15 years old, 5' 3" tall, 118lbs with 36ddd breasts. I don't really like them, or the attention from guys, and they are annoying in sports. Back pain isn't really there, but I have bad posture and try to hide them. My parents think they are and suggest breast reduction. Do you guys think that they are too big?

Earlier I asked what are medicines coated with to make them easier to swallow: the lone answer was sugar. So, going back to my own resources, I found that pills are not sugar coated. I also found that they are enteric coated. I looked up enteric coated and found that means they are coated so that the pill digests in the intestines not the stomach, and the reason for that is to allow the medicine to be absorbed better into the bloodstream without being broken down by stomach acids (which can lead to heartburn, for example) and sugar is definitely broken down in the stomach. I found nothing to suggest easier swallowing, although an enteric coated aspirin (for example) is easier to swallow than a non-coated aspirin, and nothing on what this stuff actually is. Do you know?

I got what looked like an insect bite on my left knee a few weeks ago. It got quite sore but once it burst I thought nothing of it. A few days later both legs became really itchy, but no redness or spots or anything... until about a week later I got what looked like another insect bite on my right leg, and then a string of little red dots on my thigh. I went to the doctor and she said I have a contagious skin infection, but it could be contained to my legs and treated with antibiotics and cream. That was a week ago and I'm itchy all over and have just got a few of these spots on my face! I'm so worried, the medication hasn't worked at all and its spreading. I dont even know the name of the infection, but my friend had it recently and her doctor told her to scrub the spots (to break them) with a nail brush and hot water. I've tried this but no luck. Has anyone here experienced this? I'm getting so worried now, and its very annoying having to wash all my clothes at 90°. Please help!

I was diagnosed with Vertigo in March 2005, almost three years ago. I saw a nurology specialist who conducted CAT scans, EKG's, MRI on the brain etc, all of which were negative. Spent a week in hospital. He then referred me to an ENT specialist who conducted a hearing test (my hearing was fine), also a EKG was showed very little wrong, test on my TMJ joint were also fine. I was prescribed over the years, duirtects (which had little effect) reduction in salt in my diet (didn't work), serc (didn't work), bonamine (a type of meclizine- didn't work). I have now been dealing with this- as I said for almost three years. I have had lateral vertigo constantly, it feels like i am on a boat. I do not get any spinning motion, thank god! However, my day to day life is affected, I have problems standing, sitting, laying down. The only relief is in the car, as the car is moving. Just wondering if anyone had any recommendations.?? I can provide more details if necessary. thanks

everyone says jogging is the only way to get skinny legs and anything else will just build them up and give you "thunder thighs" is this really true?? they say jogging slow will burn fat and you wont use your actual muscles while running.

I stopped growing a few years ago, unfortunately. And I'm really hoping that I can grow a bit more. But last year, I went on a diet for half a year, and maybe that didn't do me so good. But I'm eating very healthy now. Do you think that I am still grow? Please and thanks!

Every time I've had the flu in the past, I've gotten it only once in a year, and normally it's in late winter. When I've had the flu in the past, it's been so severe I've had to go to the hospital.
This year, I am just now recovering from the flu... I did not have to go to the hospital... it seems the same as in years past, just not nearly as bad. Also, it's really early in the season for me to get the flu. Do you think that I can get it again this winter?
I'm worried because it really affects my ability to work (because I work with infants and children). Thanks in advance for any help or knowledge you have!
