I have tried breathing in and out slowly when I feel one coming but it just doesn't seem to work. When I am having one I sweat really bad, it seems like everyone around me gets louder, and the lights seem to get brighter. It is almost impossible to get over them. The major problem with this issue is that they happen only in school so I haven't been going to school lately because I'm afraid of having one. I can't see my docor until Thursday what do I do? I haven't been at school since last week. I am getting really behind on my school work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get through a school day with these attacks?

I have about 4 questions here:
Some of my friends told me that they will record your surgery and take pictures for reference and to use for studies and such

1. Is that true?

AND...

2. Can I get a copy of those pics? I want some.

3. How come you cant wear fingernail polish during surgery? I heard its b./c it will react with the anesthsia(sp?) and can cuase problems

4. Does anybody know how long it will take me to recover from the surgery? Will my leg hurt like crazy?

I was trimming my lawn and appear to have been bitten by a bat. It was entirely reddish in color (and no it wasn't a spider) or snake). There are two fang marks on my ankle and filled with white blood cells (pus) and considerable swelling and itchiness. Each fang mark is approx. a half inch apart.

Are these the symptoms of a bat bite and, if so, are some of them commonly found in grass?

I read that yoga may help, and if it does, how does it help specifically? What pose will help? My disc problem is on my back.

sounds like the average joint cracking - but more audible than knuckles

just after I wake up in the morning - stop counting at 10
just before I go to bed - its the same

it's not painful at all

Last thursday, i jumped in the air to catch a ball and i landed on the side of my foot with all my weight. That day i could not walk on it at all, it is now sunday evening, and i can put weight on it, but it still hurts a little. i was debating with my mom if i should go to school, as i would have to go upstairs and walk all day from class to class, that i might reaggervate the injury and make it worse, so i requested to her that i stay home and let it heal incase walking arounf at school allday hurts it even more, she wants me too go, but i dont wanna make my injury worse, what do you guys think i should do?

I play rugby and while I was playing my foot got stuck underneath another players armpit. My knee was twisted a lot further than it has been before. I had to be carried off the field but I can now walk on it. It hurts a lot on the front inside and also when I extend my leg. After I walk on it a while the pain disappears but if I sit for a while and don't use it then I have trouble walking again. When I touch it where the pain is it feels like a bad bruise. I'm just wondering if this sounds like something may be torn or if it's ust twisted really bad and will heal on its own.
