I think I have hayfever. For the last 2 weeks or so I've been waking up really exhausted even though I'm getting the normal amount of sleep I normally have. It's a real struggle getting out of bed. My eyes are puffy & swollen every morning. I think when this happened to me a few years ago, I was given antihistamine... Any suggestions/advice please?

I took mylanta and alka seltzer because of stomach pain and this weid minor pain (like I've been coughing a little too much) in my chest.
Is the combination safe?

One of my friend´s parents gave him the money to pay s.t. for school, which has to be paid for next friday. But he went to a summer trip last week and spent all her money, now to pay those things he has been having sex with girls for money. I know that´s not OK, but that´s the only way he could get the money on time, but yesterday after making out he told me one of the girls he had had sex with has herpes and I think he might had infected me!!! and a friend told me that if I put some alcohol in my lips and then turn on fire in them it should go away... is that right?

I was dating my ex for about a year and a half, and I had always had the suspision that he might have been cheating, but I never had proof. So, as anyone would have done, I just tryed to think positive and let it go. Until one day I got a really painful sore in my genital area. The next day, I went to the doctor and he said that more than likely I had genital herpes, but he would send my results off anyways to make sure. Well about what seemed like a lifetime later, I got the results the next week. And it was not good. I cryed so much for about 3 months straight. So many things were running through my head, but all's I could think about was how could he have done this to me! I was so faithful to him, and I should have just went with my gut feeling about it. The doc said that you can start getting visable signs of genital herpes from 1 to 10 days of contact with it. So now I'm faced with the situation of telling everyone I date about it. Trust me its not easy. Can anyone relate??

Lately I feel like I've been looking good, My theighs have gone down, my arms have gotten smaller, my face is smaller. I'm 5'7 and I'm 124 lbs. I like to check every day, but that isn't something big i it? I watch what I eat, I try not to go over 800 calories a day, sometimes I'll have less, sometimes I'll have more, but lately I've been loosing weight, so I've been pushing it as best i can. I don't puke at all....


But my mom is saying more and more "Just make sure you dont become anorexic." And here I am thinking, what's so bad about it? Can you become anorexic? I just don't get it, I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, I'm loosing weight, I have my journal, I have my thinspiration, people who I want to look like one day, but does that mean I'm sick? I don't see how it's sick! My dads been saying it lately, and now my friends say I don't eat! I do, but just in moderation...

Idealy I want to be 115 lbs or so...and I don't think I'm that far away...

What do you guys think?

There's some disgusting warts on my hand! They're small right now, they're about the size of the top circle of this 8, and I heard that getting rid of them could take a long time. What works? I don't care how much it hurts, as long as it works QUICK!

I am not being treated for it presently. I have mild fibrosis and eat properly. I do take milk thistle and multi vitamin. I constantly itch mainly at night on my shoulders and arms. I am able to sleep at night though. I haven't been to a gastro doc in several years because of lack of trust. (He biopsied my gall bladder along with my liver). It later became gangreous and had to have my gall bladder removed. I have an appt. with a dermatologist next week for the itching because I don't know if it is related to the liver problems. I don't think it is cfs but I am not sure any suggestions?
