Other - Health - April 2007

Ok. Basically, I'm 16 years old, and without me even realising, I think my eyesight has been getting worse and worse. It is only far away stuff. not close up.

I went for my L's the other day, and got freaked out when I couldn't read the eye test properly, so I said I was too nervous and ran out of the rta building! lol. i was so panicked. now i'm scared.

I have to get glasses. But I don't think they would be for ALL the time. Just driving and when I'm copying stuff from the board at school. I still really just want to ask a few simple questions.

- Who many of all of u have glasses?
- How many of you wear glasses when driving?
- What is having glasses like, generally?
- How old were u when u got glasses?
- Does this mean my eyes will be dependent on glasses for the rest of my life... and will my sight gradually get worse and worse?

Sorry for making this question so long. I'm new to this whole Yahoo Questions thing! Thanks.

I two-stepped with a boy - we weren't very good. He bumped my toe and it cracked halfway down my nail bed of my big toe! It hurts, but it's still attached. I've read cover it w/a bandaid, I heard don't, I've heard put glue or a fake nail, and a bunch of random other things. I have a phobia about feet, I like them painless and perfect. What do I do??? I'm scared and want to make sure this never happens again! Please, no smart aleck remarks!

I don't want to take Pepto Bismol because I don't want to keep whatever bug/virus I have inside of me. I figure that I have diarrhea for a reason, right? Anyway, the nausea is unbearable, and I was given Phenergan a few weeks ago when I had yet another stomach bug. I have like 20 pills left, and I was wondering if you think it's okay to take (not all 20 pills I mean, just the 50mgs I was prescribed)? I mean, it doesn't do anything but stop the nausea, right? There's no way it could make me feel WORSE or harm me?

Thanks.....

Today I got up and went to work like normal and everything seemed just fine. I was happy and felt terrific. While driving to meet with a client. I started feel very strange. When I got out of the car...I lost my hearing and my vision became very blurred. I was very confused. It only lasted for about 60 seconds. I felt better so I went about my day. Now 4 hours later I am starting to feel very weak and shakey and also having a hard time focusing. Does anyone have any idea's on what I am experiencing? when i search online nothing really comes up.

in my science class today we had a woman from REd Cross talking about HIV and AIDS, and one of my friends thought of the idea of sex toys as a way of abstenance(keeping yourself from having sex until you're married), the biggest age group for people with HIV and AIDS is 13-25 mostly in African American girls, anyway back to the abstenance, do you thionk using sex toys would help keep teens from having sex?


oh yeah, we came up with this slogan(for whatever reason)
"who needs a boyfriend when you've got a toy friend"
(not to be taken literally)

I first got this pain when I was fourteen years old...it was a sudden sharp pain in below my chest in my stomach area, almost felt like it was protruding at times. It has various levels of pain and symptoms, at times it can be so painful that i cry or sweat or shake and can't talk to anyone. I've been nausous from it and i've left places of work because of the pain. It also can be mild, bothersom but yet I can bare it. I figured out that I get it about once a month usually about two weeks before my peirod. But it HAS developed different patterns in some months...like a few times in one week, or not even at all in a month. i have no idea what it is, the doctor thinks im just getting gas. Can Gas hurt this much? Does anyone know?????

Well I have been haveing diarrhea for two weeks now and before that It stopped for a day after I took imodium but before that I had it for two weeks as well.I think theres something wrong with me but Im not sure and I have always had stomach problems like constant nausea and stuff.But the diarrhea is the worst I have it all the time and when I do it lasts for a good while.
I think I have diarrhea at least 4 times out of the week on a normal schedule but lately I just cant get rid of it its lasted longer then is usually lasts.I was wondering if someone can tell me if I am just being paranoid about my stomach and if I need to see a specialist about it.

I've had severe diarhhea for almost 3 months. My doctors can't seem to figure out what's wrong with me. Even after numersous tests, bloodwork, CT scans and a colonoscopy, they don't have a clue Is there any home remedy I could try??
