My grandad started smoking at 17 and now he's 81 and still smokes. Is it luck or anything else to still be healthy?

I forgot all about belly button lint. Then yesterday I noticed something hard in my belly button, black in color and the shape of the rounded tip of an automatic eye pencil (that's the best way to describe it.) Years ago there was fluffy lint, but I guess I forgot all about it and forgot to clean it out. I'm really scared. Anyone know why it's hard like that? I don't have the $25.00 to go to the doctor just yet, but I will eventually. I'm sick with worry. I couldn't find any answers on the Internet, just that if it's lint it should be fluffy. Mine is very hard. Any answers would be welcome. I'm really scared.

I'm going off of two and a half hours of sleep for the next 12 or so hours. What is a tried and true method to staying awake and not feeling like complete crap? Anything, even temporarily unhealthy (though not life threatening...and not crack...) would do.

Im only a teen, in high school, but I sleep like an average of 4 hours a night. It makes it very hard to focus in on school work and to stay awake during classes. I'm usually exhausted until about noon, then I wake up and I am wide awake until around 12am. When I finally go to bed, my mind races nonstop and I toss and turn for hours. By the time I fall asleep I have to get up again in a few hours. Any suggestions or techniques to help me sleep better ??

I tried taking a new kind of sleeping pill last night, and it helped me sleep OK, but I still feel really drowsy now. Has anyone ever had drowsiness last all day after taking a sleeping pill the night before?

I have been having some problems with my Accutane. I just recently noticied blurry vision coming on that I never had before. Also a few weeks ago had a migrane that caused me to vomit which I contacted my dr. about but he said it was not because of the accutane. Now I am begining to wonder if I should stop this drug. Anyone that has heard of these things or been on accutane that could advise me???

i have been a habitual cracker of joints since i was very young. i remember learning to crack my fingers before learning to tie my shoes. i can crack 4 joints in my fingers, the palms of my hands, my wrists, elbows, my neck, my entire spine, the area where your leg meets your pelvic joint, knees, ankles, the tops and sides of my feet, and 3 joints in my toes. the problem is i HAVE to crack all these joints at least once an hour or i will physically get sick to my stomach. in order to fall asleep at night i have to crack all the joints in my fingers at least 100 times. could this possibly be a sign that i have some form of OCD?

I'm thinking of getting a tonsillectomy because I get the annoying tonsilloliths. But I love singing and I'm worried about it effecting that. Does any one know anything about this and whether it does effect you in that way at all??

I'm 25. I am such a light sleeper. I cannot sleep with ANY noise present...if I hear someone talking in the next room (not even loudly), it distracts me and I can't sleep. My apartment is one the third floor, and if I hear someone talking in the parking lot, it wakes me up. The worst comes if I want to spend the night with my boyfriend. He snores, and I absolutely CANNOT fall asleep with that, and if I finally do, I can't stay asleep. Same when I travel with friends and share a hotel room.

When noise happens when I want to sleep, I feel myself getting very irritated/aggitated. I can only focus on the sound. And I can't sleep.

I'm at my wits end. I don't want this to continue; if I get married at some point I don't want to have to sleep in another room.

I don't want to take sleeping pills if at all possible. I'm just wondering if anyone has a similar problem and if anything as helped you. Any helpful suggestions are welcome. This really impairs my life, and I'm sick of it.

I got my belly done about 2 days ago. Its perfectly clean. There is no pus, no redness its brilliant. But i just sterilized it then and now it is itchy. Not extremley but just itchy.What does this mean and how could I fix it. Also the Bar when i sit up the top comes further out of the belly button. It dosnt really bother me but it can get iritating especially when its a new piercing and its still healing so its sore.

Thanx
