Health - 30 December 2007

My nose has been stuffy for days, & I'm so stuffy that it feels like mucus is backed up WAY in my stomach (even though that may not be the case), which is making me feel nauseated & have little to no appetite for the past few days. I've tried Mucinex many times, & it's supposed to be one of the most effective mucus eliminator, but it doesn't work on me for some reason. What other brands of congestion medicine are good?

I need to know what porcelain lumineers cost. I have done all kinds of searches but can never get an honest answer or reply. Can someone who has actually had it done tell me what it costs and any other details they can give. Thanks.

Hi, I am a 16 year old girl, 5'3, and 173 pounds. I really need to lose some weight. Im not about to ask for a miracle, i know it will take a lot of effort to lose weight. But now, I have finally found the motivation and drive for me to actually do it this time. So, my plan is to start eating healthy, eating little about five times a day, adding up to only 1000 calories. Then, i plan to workout about 2 hours every day, and about 4 hours on the weekends. When i workout, i am going to go on the tredmill or the eliptical, or both, notthing else. How long will it actually take for me to lose about 50 pounds if i stick with this diet and workout plan?

When I am about to fall asleep at night I get terrieble frightened. I start to think I hear people breaking into my house, that someone is breaking into my bedroom. I start to hear things and see things that aren't there. Completely irrational things, like after I see one of those end of the words flesh eating zombie movies I think those zombies are breaking in my house, or are in my bedroom. I know I need to stop watching movies like that, but is this normal? Pretty much I fall asleep to the tv at night to avoid the quit and dark that these crazy fears develop from. Am I having panic attacks, Am I nuts.

I remember learning that there are only two eye colors: brown and blue. Every other eye color is a result of these two combinations. Now I keep hearing about genes for every eye color. Can someone straighten this out for me? Are there just genes for brown and blue eyes, and every other tone (including green) comes from this, or what? Thanks!

I'm 20 years old. I've been depressed for years. It gets worse every now and then, making me feel suicidal. I don't have any friends or people to talk to, in real life or online. I feel hopeless and alone in the world. I'm shy and afraid of social situations. I feel like a failure because I can't get a job. I don't have any money to see a doctor or a therapist. I feel like I'm dead inside and I don't see a way out of this "life" I'm leading right now. At this point, I just want to end things. Has anyone felt like this, and is there anything I can do to get myself out of this?

my first period? I have been getting discharge for a little while now, not more than 2 months. But today I noticed a tiny bit of reddish brown stuff on my panties. I know, it sounds stupid and you're thinking "duh, of course it is!" but it was, like so little! And there was also some of the other (yellow-white) discharge I've also been getting for a while. It was like, an inch long (the red stuff) dried up, and looked like a pen line, it was really thin. I wasn't sure so I kept the panties on and I checked a few seconds ago and there was no new stuff on. I don't want to be all melodramatic and go gushing to my mom, it might be a false start? Could it be or no? I'm so confused and scared! Maybe I should just leave it and if I don't get any more just forget about it? It's just that I was expecting it so much later! AAAUUUGGGGH! help!
thanks

I'm 14 years old, but my parents think I tell lies about my health for "attention". I don't know why, but they've never even checked to see if any of my "Tall tales" were true or not, and it's came back to bite them.

What can I do without telling my parents "I think I have diabetes" to get tested?
