I am just amazed by the number of persons I know who are getting themselves treated in rehab-- those who were forced to do so. Wouldn't this be futile?

I use Certain Dri at night it has "Aluminum Chloride 12%" and I put on Tag Antiperspirant in the morning and if it washes off in the pool or something, I put it on again later (if I'm going somewhere) it has "Aluminum zirconium trichlorohydrex Gly 17%". Will using these as often as I do eventually lead to cancer or Alzhiemer's? Should I just switch to regular deaodarant but still use Certain Dri?

I need to stay awake to study for 2 tests, but I'm really tired and it's hard to stay awake and concentrate. I've already drank 3 diet sodas and it has no effect on me. Any suggestions?
And I'm not just going to give up and go to sleep because my grades are really important to me...and I won't be happy without an A.

Ugh, tomarrow at 10 in the morning.. im supposed to have a head CT scan done.. and i have some questions.

I've been reading about it and ive heard a lot about contrast stuff that's given in either IV, to drink, or an enema.

Now.. my doctor had me get some blood drawn the other day to check if my liver was okay.. (cuz ive been having problems being wet /down there/ and she wanted to see if it was related to my liver)

I have to have nothing to eat or drink after midnight tonight... and i had to have the blood work done BEFORE the CT scan.. and it said on the slip that the blood work people had to send the results to be contrasted with.. SOMETHING BEFORE i could even get the CT scan done!


So i guess my question is.. because it's a head CT scan.. will i have to drink a contrast? will it be an IV? will there even be a constrast at ALL?

What effects will this contrast have? when my mom had one, they told her she couldnt drive afterwards..


.....more....

My brother has not smoked marijuana in 72 days but he still failed the drug test! He was around second-hand smoke the day before the test but only for a second. Is it possible he inhaled some and didnt know it? FYI he has smoked weed more than the average person for the last 10 years of his life. Could it have remained in his system because of how much he smoked in the past?

I dont smoke too often (the last time I smoked was like 3-5 wks ago). I am taking Niacin daily and drinking tons of water. Will this clean me out in time considering i exercise and am not a habitual smoker? What else can I do? Any advice is helpful!

I feel stupid for asking this question. I should know. Are there any other peck exercises i can do to help build muscle there besides benching and push-ups. I need something that wouldn't really require a lot of equipment. All i have is two ten# dumbbells. (i no longer have a gym membership).

I forgot about it and left it in my car for a few weeks. It endured some really, really, really hot summer days in the car but is currently at a fine temperature now. Is it okay to use or could the heat have "spoiled" the medicine?

I have been playing soccer for a while now, and it seems like recently (past 1-2 years) when I run/sprint for awhile, I get major charlie horses. Why does this happen and what can I do to make them stop and not happen again? One happened today at school tryouts and I don't want it to happen tomorrow so is it possible to fix it overnight? Lots of people say its because I need to get more potassium by eating bananas, but I wanted to hear other peopls opinions. Thanks!

When i was a baby, my eyes were blue. And as i grew, they remained blue. When my parents divorced when i was nine, slowly, so slowly, i didn't realise until i saw a picture of myself as a younger girl, that my eyes had changed to green. And a light, near yellowish green at that.
Is there any sources that prove that human eyes can change colour after pigmentation sets in during infancy? And what causes it?

(Also at the age of 9 around my parents divorce i started to require glasses on a permanent basis, if this helps)

I have noticed that when I wash my hands and dry them on cloth towels, the towels turn a very bright yellow color. Well, I just did laundry, and noticed the same very bright yellow on the left sides of my shirts--not under the arms, but down the sides of my tank tops. Ordinarily, I would think it was perspiration, but this yellow is such a bright, odd color that I'm worried something is wrong with my body chemistry. Also, I don't sweat that much and this issue has only sprung up recently. Any ideas? We did get a water softener recently, but that's the only change I can think of in our water.

What am I supposed to do when I am extremely sick and my Dr. will not return my calls? Not even my Dr. it is the triage nurse. I have a breast infection and the longer you go with out treatment the worse it gets. I have left 3 messaged in the last 24 hours and have not gotten a call back. All I need is an antibiotic. Who do I complain too?

I can just be sitting down doing nothing and my armpits reek. I use dove and once in awhile my brother's old spice. I don't sweat that bad I just smell really bad. I use sprays, lotions, soaps, I eat zinc. I think it might be from anxiety because my IBS is caused by that, but now I am starting to get this armpit problem. please help!

I can go up to two weeks without taking a poo and sometimes it hurts really bad when I do and odd times it's sharp and causes me to bleed.

I hear it's dangerous to have poo stored in your body for too long what should I do?
