I asked this before but national health care yes or no. I think we should at least have a national health insurance program, that way all of us could get health care and be able to get our meds. If we can give the Chinies government 100 bil. dollars, why not do national health care, is that not the right thing to do?

only to discover that you can't move at all? You're freaking out trying to move and you feel like something bad is going to happen, but it seems to take forever to actually be able to move any part of your body....You can see everything around you, so you know you're not sleeping, but yet you can't move anything? What's up with that?

A friend of mine just put something in my ear, I can't hear much out of that ear and it is kinda bleeding, I was wondering if I might be deaf for life out of that ear, or will it go away in the morning.

The object did not stay in the ear, and was not sharp.

I have 2 herniated discs at L4-5 and L5-S1. Late Wednesday night I noticed my foot fell asleep (foot to a quarter the way up my calf). It hasn't 'woken' up yet. My back pain is the same, but I feel a weird pressure in my low back. I also went pee earlier and about 7-8 minutes after I was done I started dribbling (little more then a dribble), I had no idea there was any left and didn't know until it happened. Any ideas what is going on? Should I go to the ER asap or wait till Monday and call my doc?

Ok, I asked this once before, but i guess my details werent good enough. I am interested in getting my nipples pierced. I have already had a child and nursed for a year with no probs. We plan on waiting a while before child number two. Since having a child, my nipples are really sexually sensitive and the idea of piercings is intriguing to me. No, I dont care if you think its trashy or whatever. its a personal thing between my husband and I, not something i would be flashing around. i would OBVIOUSLY REMOVE the jewelry when ready to breastfeed our next child. what i was wondering is if having piercings and then taking them out when we have our next child, would affect my ability to breastfeed.

Amodium AD or Kaopectate. I know I probably spelled both of those wrong, sorry. Spell check only works so well. I noticed that they both have different active ingredients. My husband has had the problem for 3 days and feels like crap, no pun intended.

My doctor prescribed Afrin and Flonase to treat post-nasal drip. He said that I could use the Afrin for 5 days in a row, but the bottle says I can only use it for three days. Does anyone know if it could be harmful for me to use it as he prescribed it, or should I stop at three days? I only use it once in the evenings (usually 24 hours between sprays). Thanks!

Every so often when I use air freshener the smell stays in my nose for awhile. I guess it is concentrated and I am breathing a little in. Is this harmful?
