My arm will get tired really easy and i get these wierd feelings in my head...i don't know maybe i'm going crazy or something but my jaw will start hurting with it also, it's been going on for about a month..any ideas????

The hypnosis tape was given to me. I started to listen to it but there was whispering in the background. Would you listen to a tape that has whispering in it but you cannot hear the words that are whispered? You could be being brainwashed and not know it.Would you listen to the whole tape?

I had surgery back October on my foot to remove a couple of pieces of bone floating around from a fracture. I have healed but still in pain. When I flex my foot like ballarina style my foot cramps up and it feels like there is a band over my foot near the ankle sometimes. Is that what pysical therapy helps with? Because I am doing PT now for thigh pain - could the thigh pain be associated with the foot pain as well? I have my next PT session on Wednesday and would like to ask the PT that but just curious what others think.

Im having to have hair cuts every one and a half weeks just to stay smart, plus my finger nails seem to need trimming after only three days. Any uber medical boffins out there know of an explanation?

I have been everywhere and talked to everyone to help with this problem. I have changed my shoes, slowed my stride, rested for 4 months, ran on softer ground, got good arch supports, tried taping, I even saw a sports medicine doctor who did x-rays and then advised me to see a Physical Therapist. I saw the PT religiously for about 6-8 weeks, which made the pain go away, but then I started running again. So, then I saw someone that makes orthopedics, she studied my stride and said that my arch is very flexible without very much muscle. She showed me some arch exercises which haven’t seem to help much. Currently, I can’t run 2 min/walk 1 minute for 30 minutes at 5.0 mph without searing pain. Ice and ibuprofen seems to help, but doesn’t cure what is causing this ongoing problem. I’m starting to wonder if I have a problem that requires more invasive measures. Can anyone help?

I dislocated my finger, and our student health center is closed. Is it terribly bad to let it sit overnight, or should I go to the emergency room? I really don't want to, it seems like a waste of time, but if it's necessary, I guess I will...

I have been depressed for a while now. On top of endless homework from taking AP classes, I have a (what seems like) a cronic shyness, a disgust for my body that will never be thin enough, a growing lack of modivation, and a sense that I am not good enough to be loved by anyone. But the only thing I want is to have a boyfriend (a specific boy who seems to be interested in me but I fear that he might just be playing with my head). I can't stand these games but there's no way in hell I can "make a move". I wish I could but it's simply impossible... believe me. It's unimaginably painful to think that I will just have to accept that I will not be with him (as I have with MANY other guys). This depression is making me miserable! I constantly think of ending my life! I know it's wrong but it sounds like the only way to end this pain inside.

I've already put aloe vera on it last night and tonight, but all last night it was really hard to sleep? My teacher at school told me to put apple cider vinegar on it, but first of all I thought she was just plain crazy and secondly I don't have any. Today my boyfriend poked and prodded my sunburn and it was annoying so I just want it to heal thanks....
