I cant sleep at night have no energy and never want to go out. I get up at 6am six days a week as I own a newsagents. I live on the premisis so there is not much privacy. I dont work all day every day. I only do 2 long shifts and have sundays off. I have loads to do but just cant face it. My body hurts most of the time and that in turn gets me down.

Should cotton T-Shirt be the first layer? What clothes would you buy at a thrift store? No ski clothes or winter coats are available. What type of cloth? In what layered order? What shoes? What socks? What did the early Pole explorers use?

I have a friend that chews foam and she is pretty normal in every way: is pretty, has a good job, getting married soon but she chews foam! I know little kids do this sometimes but why would a grown up do this and can it affect her health in anyway (she claims it's harmless), most imprtantly how do we get her of it?

I was wondering what all I can do to increase the high, and decrease the nausea. Would taking a Dramamine beforehand work? Should I take vitamin C along with the seeds? I need the most information as possible.

Today, I was running along a relatively dark corridor at the university, reading some papers, so I didn't notice that a smoke-protection glass door was closed until I ran nose-first into it. It was a big impact, everybody popped out of their rooms to see what happened. I put an innocent look and ran into my destination room.
This was 90 minutes ago (I hat to hear a lecture before I could get to a PC). Now, the pain has mostly disappeared, but I've got a big blue bruise on my nose, and I don't have any make up with me. Everything I could do was getting an ice-cold can of Coke and holding it against my nose, but I can't go into a lecture like that.
To make it worse, tomorrow is my birthday, and I wanted to look especially good. My boyfriend is taking me out and I'm afraid I won't be allowed into the chic restaurant with my boxer's nose.
What should I do? Please help!

Well, I've done it plenty of times before and I don't know why, but when I go anything over 20 hours without sleep, I get hyper and just bounce off walls. Shouldn't I just be tired?

I was in a car accident in february with a hit and run driver. No serious/obvious damage but 3 days later I was in the ER with a blinding class 9 migraine. Ended up on fluids and pain killers.

Migraines increased in frequency since then. (I've always had them in the past but used to be hormone related.) From once a month to now twice a week or more.

In October I had a migrine so painful that I couldn't keep painkillers down. Ended up suffering for 12 hours (in an airplane for work) and passing out at the airport. Saw a Dr. and refered to a neurologist.

Neurologist is now doing an EEG and an MRI.

I believe the migraine's are related to a possible back injury from the car accident since all severe migraines are traced back to starting after the accident.

Asside from seeing an orthopedist, does anyone have any thoughts or comments?

Anyone else experience anything like this?

sorry i just have one more question to ask.... anyway a while back i did some exercise called jelqing about 2 years ago... 1 night i did it my penis went immediatly limp... for months i was freaked out thinking i had broken my penis my erections were not fully hard and i could not hold them... anyway i got stress out of my life and i got better with erections.... about 2 months ago i went to see a uriologist to be told i did nothing internally wrong and it was all mental... but now my question is this... why when my penis is limp does it shrink up? like when you get into cold water.. you know how it shrinks up? thats what happens with my penis when limp... when i hop into the shower its stuck like that..its usually like that throughout the whole day... is it really all mental? or is something wrong? the uriologist said it was all in my head... but i dont know if this is true.... could it really be all mental? but why does it always happen?

I have been having right and left side flank/abdominal pain and I need to know what to do. The pain reaches to my lower back and groin area. I hav noticed that the pain is also in the rectum area.
I have been to the doctor and she found no infection so she sent me to have a CAT scan and I am waiting for the results. There has been blood found in my urine. What is this problem?
I have been suffering with this for at least 1 year.
