Erectile dysfunction, that is. My husband is 49 years old, and was diagnosed w/ type 2 diabetes about ten years ago. He was prescribed medication (two kinds), but stopped taking them after about a week. He does nothing to control his diabetes. Doesn't even check his blood sugar. Eats cake, cookies, candy -- any sweets he wants. Like everyday. He has had high b.p. in the past, yet didn't take RX for that either. Within the past year, he has had ED. Well...it seems he doesn't have a problem with taking Viagra, or Cialis (sp?). He wasn't prescribed this RX, but rather has a friend who works at a Dr.'s office, who gives him samples which pharmaceutical reps bring in. My question is this:

Is the ED indicative that his body is breaking down, or deteriorating in other ways? I've been worried for the past ten years that he is going to drop dead. Can someone with uncontrolled diabetes possibly live to a ripe old age??? He becomes real defensive when bring up the subject.

I've read many different viewpoints on mixing alcohol and antibiotics. Lets get something straight here, I'm not looking to get drunk - but it is my friends birthday, and I rarely get a day off of work, so I would like to have a glass of wine or two. Problem being the Pharmasist didn't insert one of those interaction sheets with this medication - anyone have any specifics on Norofloxacin?

I purchased the gym at Academy but they don't carry the extra weights. University Equipment doesn't have a web site either.

My husband works at a crappy job which is nights (cause he got fired last year and has been in a slup about life every since)
I went back to school cause I was tired of living a crappy life. I am almost done school I can't work after school cause i can't afford daycare right now there would be no point i would make nothing and my husband watches my daughter while im at school then goes to bed when I get home. Money has been really tight lately and I want my husband to have the same hope for a better life and find a different job that pays more.

How do I stay positive and help my husband be positive about his life and career too.

Any female out there that works out and has gotten breast implants? I'm a D right now but, I'm afraid that when I get back into working out like I want to, I'll lose some breast size. I've seen some implants that looked awful so, I'm a little afraid of them. Any comments?

I just had an operation the day before yesterday and I had 3 wisdom teeth cut out and a molar pulled. They gave me this stuff called happy juice and I think they injected something in my mouth. My face is still swollen and there is an outbreak of tiny red bumps in patches on my face. I can't remember if I had them before my operation or if i just got them. My face is kinda shiny too. What are all the possibilities that this could have been from? how do I lower the sweeling? and what can I do to get rid of this rash or allergy thing?
