Have a quick question, and I hope you guys can help. I was bending down to pick something up off the floor at a retail store the other day and the front of my hair, on the way back up, grazed a wall. When I looked at the wall, I noticed there was a large amount of dried blood. My hair came into direct contact with dried blood! I went home and washed it with anti-bacterial soap, but I am still worried that I may have cought something from the blood. Is it possible for HIV or any other virus to some how attach itself to my hair and live in there? Any other recommendations as to how to further wash it out? Should I go get a haircut?

Thanks so much,
Bob

recently (in the last few days) ive been noticeing a feeling in the back of my neck that is very much like a pulse, except it is much stronger (i can feel it without touching it) and very irregular. it does not happen all the time, but once or twice a day for about 2 mins each time. i have checked, both my heartbeat and pulse on my wrist and neck are normal. (ie. regular)
is anything wrong with me?

my friend was out for 2 days because she thought she had meningitis...she had the symptoms. she went to the hospital and everything, took an MRI...and she came in to school today, and said she didnt have it.
but im scared, i only saw her for like 20 minutes, she was sitting in the other end of the class room, but i had to walk by the area she was sitting to get to the door.
how contagious is it, like, even if she said she didnt have it, im scared!

Okay, this is going to sound creepy, but i have an eye-condition that doctors haven't exactly 'discovered' yet...its a new thing.

what happens is, i always see these static things. like, my whole vision is staticy, kinda like a broken telivision. but its clear static, it doesn't block my vision, its just PART of it...anyway, what happens is, at night, sometimes when i'm laying in my bed, i start to dream when i'm awake (and in the dark, because the dimmer the lights, the more staticy it gets). and the dreams appear before me, especially on empty walls, exactly like a telivision. Its really weird, and no one else in my family has it. unfortunatly, i only 'see my dreams' when i have nightmares...which is scary, because i can't wake myself up (because i'm already awake!) and when i close my eyes, i see the same thing as i saw before me. and its NOT hallucinating, btw. :) . its as if the images in my head were being projected using the static.

My husband had a brain tumor that caused him to have epilepsy. he had it removed in 2000 but he still gets Auras which are a form of seizure. They have been getting more frequent over the past few months and I am beginning to worry. We are going through some stressful stuff and he says that is what causes them and I shouldn't worry. Should I make him go see a Dr. or trust him to know what is best?

Every once in a while I get a little light headed, most of the time while I'm driving actually. And I sometimes get short of breath, and have to force myself to yawn in order to feel like I've got enough breath. When I lay down I feel like someone is sitting on my chest and it's hard for me to breathe a little bit. Not sure if it's related, but sometimes I get a sore feeling in the left side of my jaw, but I always thought it was just because I was chewing too much, haha. Anyway, do these things mean I have heart problems? Or could I just has anxiety issues that I'm mistaking for heart problems? Please help!
