My roommate is a smoker. I am thinking of smoking myself, but everyone keeps telling me how bad it is. But isn't secondhand smoke worse than actually smoking? Since I'm already in a smoke-filled enviornment, what is the harm in actually smoking?

I am seriously leaning towards getting one. I have been thinking about it for over year
I'm 15, 5'5, about a size 9 in jeans, and F cups (I'm also spilling out of them) i am way out of proportion! I have to order my bras from the States (I live in Canada) and I just was wondering if someone could answer some of my questions.

What's the minimal age they will consider doing it on a young girl. I know that they don't like doing them on younger girls because if the breasts aren't finished growing it could complicate things. And the whole, if I ever got pregnant I couldn't breast feed thing.
About how much does it cost? I live in Alberta Canada.
Anyone who's gotten one or does them have any advice?
Thanks
I really don't want to be a hunchback at the age of 25.

If a young man (30 YO) wants to attend college in the USA, he is required to show proof of MMR vaccination. He is "pretty sure" that he had the measles vaccine as an infant, but he does not know about the others. It is totally impossible to obtain a medical record as his country has been through a revolution and nothing like that exists from his childhood. His parents are not sure of which vaccinations he received.

Is it safe for him to have an MMR vaccination at age 30 to comply with this college requirement?

If you are a doctor or nurse, please be so kind as to include that information in your answer. You understand, I am sure.

Thanks for your help.

I had a bad experience with Captain Morgan in orange juice (bad mixing idea I know). Anyway, I cannot even look at orange juice without getting a bad taste in my mouth. The same goes with Coke, I lost taste for that because I had it once with Captain Morgan. Basically, the smell of Captain Morgan gets me uncomfortable.

This happened over 2 months ago, so is the best solution forcing myself to drink OJ and Coke again, or just let time pass?

If I sit down for about 15 minutes my toes go blue and if I do that circulation test thing where you press down on your toe for a second they take ages to 'colour up' again, my fingers are also cold all the time; even in the summer if people shake hands with me they always go 'gosh your cold' or make some other similar comment, my fingers are also a lot redder than anyone elses that I know (I don't know if thats related. It's not due to cold weather or anything, becuase they are permanently cold.

If a woman produces ALL her eggs while devloping as a foetus....(to me that means all the chromosomes have gone through meiosis and are ready to mature and then get fetilised), why does increased age cause more incidences of trisomy (eg Down's syndrome) when the eggs have technically been produced at the same time (in the foetus)??????????

i'm 20 and not pregnant (not even sexually active). Whatever the reason may be (stress or nature or whatever), my period (which is ALWAYS regular...about 6 days long) came 10 days early (scary) and after 10 days, i'm STILL bleeding heavily (frightening). I'm changing my pad every few hours and everytime I go to the bathroom, I'm releasing clots and clots of blood. I haven't made an appointment with a doctor yet (i'm going to tomorrow), but my schedule is way tight with finals coming up and i just started a new job (i don't want to ask for a day off already) so i'll be lucky if i can get an appointment on a day that i'm available in the coming days.

until that day comes, this constant bleeding is seriously scaring me and there are times where i feel a bit faint and i want to know what i can do to keep myself from losing significant amounts of essential nutrients and minerals, such as iron, from my blood? any suggestions?

they make you wait for hours and make you see at least 5 different people before you have been fully treated and you're ready to go? Or is it only with people like me who have really painful stomach conditions or non-deadly complaints? How do they organize themselves in the emergency room? It seems strange to me.

Perhaps I need to refrase my question a little bit, the thing that I wanted to know is -

Is there any way I can see (when I say see I mean to comprehend or to see with my mind) what is wrong with my body, or organs (liver,lungs etc.) or perhaps can I see their current state. The thing that puzzels me the most is the thing that I own my body, but still I am unaware of its detailed problems or of its current state unless I take a scaner or something similar. Is there any way that I can communicate with my body so that I can comprehend its problems? Does anyone knows anything about it? Can someone give me a web page whera I can inform myself... Thank you all.

P.S.
I am sorry if my English is bad, and if there are any mistakes in my spelling or in my sentence making I would be gratefull for a critic or for a suggestion with this.
