My husband and I bought a sleep number bed 1 year ago for my bad back, and it is not working out like we thought...
Since the mattress is an air mattress, and not the traditional springs and fabric kind, it cannot be stained or ruined like a fabric one can be...
I have the whole set with mattress, box springs and metal roller frame...

whenever i am in a room that is quiet i hear a buzzing noise. the quieter the room the louder the buzz. this happens all the time, not just after listening to loud noises, such as a rock concert.

I'm taking a geology class so have become more aware of what I do and my bf and I are having a disagreement. I usually only take 10 min showers (my hair gets dry easy so I don't wash my hair every time) but he runs the water for about 5 mins so the whole room gets steamy, then he stays in the shower AT LEAST 20 minutes and says I must not clean myself well cuz I can't wash that quickly. I think it's just being wasteful, if you are a guy with no hair, why use 25 minutes of water?? I don't even know girls that do that

I had a doc look at some spots on my back. If they were life threatening and really bad at this point in time would he have sent me to a dermatologist then, or just refer me to one and make me wait a month or 2.

I just got offered a job as a pharmacy technician. But apparently you just can't just show up and start working. First i have to get registered which is about 60 bucks and send a picture of me and turn in the application to the pharmacy registration place wherever it is. Then they said i have to take a test to be certified. Do i really need to take the test to hand people their prescriptions? Or can i just pay the 60 bucks registration? I heard you don't need to take the test to work as a pharmacy technician, all you need to do is be registered. Anybody know??

I am going through some intensive testing and I recently had an injection.

The woman had an extremely hard time getting my veins to "pop" and she said I had small veins. I have a five hour glucose tolerance test scheduled for this Friday and I know I'll have a needle stuck in me the whole time.

Is there a way for me to get my veins to "pop" out more for the upcoming appointment I have?

I worked out daily and have a high intake of water... if that maters?
Any advice is appreciated.

I have a sinus headach. I will not be able to get to the doctors until next wednesday (Valentines day)...due to my CRAZY schedule. (And I do have an appointment for that day..just to make sure its not an infection.) Until then though, does anybody have any suggestions as to how to get rid of/reduce the pain that this headach is giving?

I have taken sudafed, i tried regular advil/motrin/tylonol etc.. I took a hot steamy shower..

Is there any other way to get relief from this? I work at a daycare so the children are CONSTANTLY screaming and by the time I get to go home I dont want to do anything but take a sleeping pill and go to bed!

Any suggestions??

On some occasions my left arm will start to go numb. It happens every so often and only last a few minutes. I also have some very weird chest pains. This has gone on for a few years and I recently just got health insurance but I was trying to see if this happened to anyone else or if anyone knows about something similar to this. This usually happens during the day just out of the blue, I don't do anything in particular for it do happen. I am going to go to the doctor but I like to know a little bit more information going into the doctor so anyone who can help, I would appreciate it.

I have lost my voice. My throat isn't sore and I haven't got a cold, but it is really irritating. My voice seems to go from deep and husky to mickey mouse to non existant. Is there anything I can gargle etc to get my regular voice back.

P.S. This seems to happen this time every year. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Squeek Squeek
