I am 13 years old and sometimes throughout the day I have cold fingers. Usually, this happens after I take my shirt off and excerise. Now, is this bad? Is it a symptom of anything?

My eye started out being swollen on the upper lid on the outside corner. I accidentely yanked out an eyelash in that corner the night before. The next day it got even worse and started inching a little. Today I woke up and now it's doing the same thing on the lower lid and if this keeps up it will be swollen shut by tomorrow. I don't have drainage or reddness on the eye itself, just reddnes on the lids. I also have soreness on the top and lower lid. Since this seemed to have traveled to the lower lid do I have an infection? I would go to a clinic but it's the holiday weekend and I will not be able to see one until tuesday. The only option I have left is the emergency room and the copay for that is $100 with my insurance. Should I go to the ER or just wait it out? Medical employee advice are greatly appreciated.

My client is having an MRI tomorrow and she is worried she won't be still enough because she is really shaky. She phoned me to ask me what she should do. I told her to just go to her appointment and do the best she can.

For some months my fingernails have been deteriorating. Several of them have cracked from top to bottom and then have peeled away from the crack. Also they have become ridged from top to bottom. They are not brittle. This problem is gradually spreading to the rest of my fingernails.
I never wear nail varnish and use masses of a good quality nail and hand cream every day.
I suspect this may be due to a mineral or vitamin deficioncy of some sort.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

It's 5:30 A.M. and I can't sleep. My problem is not medical; more like I am just stressed about bills.

Does anyone have any tips for helping me to get some "shut-eye"?

AS Im sitting here typing this my eyes are drooping and I keep knodding off but when I go up to bed, all I do is lay there with my eyes closed..my brain is still going 100 miles a minute...Im having full conversations with myself in my head (not out loud..Im not crazy...really, I swear!) while Im trying to sleep. Its been 2 days now and Im completely exausted.
A few weeks ago I fell and twisted my neck a little which caused me to have a severe headache for 5 days in which I didnt sleep. Ever since then, Ive had a really hard time sleeping normally.
Have you got any ideas?

I brought my 5 month old to a pediatric Orthopedic surgeon...A 4hr trip, and I had a problem with the doctor. I was asked to fill out paperwork in office. While working on the papers the doctor came in and introduced himself and started talking to me and I was looking at him the next thing I knew he walked over and took my paperwork away in a rough manner saying
"I want you to listen to me while I am talking".
Well he went on and on then he asked me if I knew anything about a certain condtion and if so what do I know? I opened my mouth to answer he interrupted me and said
"Well, it doesn't matter what you know it is probably wrong".

I figured maybe he had a bad day...after all, all i did was travel 4hrs to be insulted. Anyway my 5month old was smiling and babbling to him (perhaps about the trip) and he just ignored her like the appointment had nothing to do with her. No child manners at all. So much for being a pediatrician.

Has anyone had a surgery for severe strabismus that was successful? I have had 2 surgeries and my last one made my eye worse! I'm terribly insecure about my eye, but obviously can't hide it........ I'm thinking about another surgery to try to fix it but the last one was a 10,000 surgery and did nothing.

Anyone have a success story??

Thanks to all who have contributed with an answer to my earlier question on SAD and beating the darstardly winter blues.

It isn't about finance with regards to buying a light box....I was just hoping that there would be something a little more straight forward out there that perhaps some of you had already come across?

There are an overwhelming number of you who use these light boxes though...so I will be giving one a go.

Please though...if you do have any other ideas....let me (and all the other sufferers out there as there are many) know! Thanks.

P.S Moving to a warm bright and sunny country is on my wish list!!

I suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder....I hate being cold, I hate the dark nights, I hate the wet weather and I don't want to go out in it! I would rather stay in (even though when I do eventually venture outside during the daytime, it's more often warmer and brighter than inside my house!). However, the next time I have to go out, I feel that I would rather stay in and hibernate....again!

I'm fortunate enough to run my own Company....from home...which doesn't help with my motivation to get outside or to have more Winter energy inside my home!

I don't want to buy expensive light boxes or gadgets...

...I'm just looking for motivational ideas that have worked for other people.

Any ideas anyone??
