where can i get info on vaccines? every thing i have found is either trying to scare you into having them or written for medical professionals. we don't believe that all children need all vaccines and are trying to learn as much as possible so we can decide with our peditrician which ones our child needs.

I've just got my bellybutton pierced, and I was wondering: when, in six weeks, I change the bar I'm currently wearing, should I sterilise the new one?

I would be grateful for any information from those with experience with this. Thank you.

I'm 16 an i've had a cyst in my right earlobe for about 2 1/2 weeks. The cyst is very small and doesn't hurt. I get these alot, like 4 or 5 times a year and they always take months to go away. I want to get my ears pierced but can't because the cyst is right where i want the piercing. Can i pierce my ears anyway with the cyst there? If not How can i make it go away faster?

if men would quit worrying (obsessively) about their penis size and women would quit worrying (obsessively) about their weight?? IMO, women are beautiful in any size as long as they are HEALTHY and as far as a man's penis goes, just learn how to use it and please us no matter what size it is! Anyone else agree?? Of course, there would be far fewer questions to answer on YA. LOL! Take care everyone...

I fear that I may have hypothyroidism! First of all, I've ALWAYS had cold hands and feet, brittle hair etc... and i used to weigh 115, then dieted and went down to 95 (i'm only 4'11.5")...ANYWAY, i haven't eaten THAT much more...but i've gained 10 pounds of fat. i'm 110 now. Is my metabolism just slow? I also have a 59 bpm heart rate.. is that kind of low? AND i've developed a swollen gland under my chin..it's not noticeable, but.....it's there and my dentist asked if i've been sick recently.. and i haven't! Could it have been from the excess salt i've been consuming from tons of chips, junk food? because i'm USED to eating healthy, but now i eat like...terrible processed stuff. could that swelling have been caused by that?? my parents don't think i have hypo...and won't take me to the doctor. could i get some opinions or....what it may be??? I'm kind of freaking out here..because i would hate to gain more weight if i did have hypo......

I'm getting a blood test just to make sure my soar throat and swolen glands is just a sinus infection. I got a finger prick yesterday and it kinda hurt. They said it was to early to decide if I had mono even though the results were negative. Is the one I'm getting today hurt more. If it does hurt what can I do to make it hurt less. Im really nervous.

I've been having trouble falling asleep lately, what's something that can help me go to sleep? I'd prefer not to take drugs, so what natural ways can i help myself? If there aren't good natural ways, what over the counter drugs can i get?

This summer I had gas that was so foul it cleared the cabin of all eight of us. It went on for hours and hours.
I have an office Christmas party coming up and I would like to bring a little holiday cheer.

Ok, so, I had this light, light LIGHT period, that lasted for a day and a half, was light pink then light brown and quit. I'm on birth control, and usually I get a medium to heavy period thats last4 to 5 days. YES my body is adjusted to the birth control, I have been on it for 3 years. Anywho... Just tonight I had a nosebleed, which has never happened to me before. My boobs look funny, darker veins. I got nauseous out of nowhere last night and almost vomited. I took a HPT two nights ago, but it read negative... I dont know what's going on! I am pretty sure I won't get a real period either, because it has been awhile since that light period. UGH!

This questions sounds so dumb, but it's a concept I've been confused on for a long time. My normal temp runs between 96.7 and 97.2 ish. I know that this is 1.5 to 2 degrees lower than normal. If my temperature is around a 98.6 does that mean I'm running a slight fever, or do they still only consider it a fever if it is in the 99.9 range? Should I be as concerned about a 100 degree temp as most people are about a 102? The main reason I ask is becuase I always feel like I have a fever at around 98.6 degrees (chills, muscle achiness, etc) but I don't know exactly what it means. I hope this question makes sense and isn't too dumb. I'm pregnant with my 2nd child and just trying to monitor my health closely because I've had some early complications. Thanks in advance!

hi just went to get a blood test; to see what my thyroid levels are like. I saw on my dr's computer symbols that mean what he was testing me for. One symbol was THS which is for the thryroid but then he tested me for another I think it started with an E/ I'm afraid he could be testing me to see if I've been taking my medication (anti-depressents and thyroid meds); which I havn't, but he thinks that I have:(. Does anyone know where I can find a list of the abreviations for different tests with the correct name for what the dr is testing you for? Thanks:)

analysis, (I've worked medical so I know what lab tests etc. mean and what they can encompass), what happens to the specimen? The specimen was put immediately into a sterile jar of alcohol so contamination isn't the issue. Thanks for your help. Nancy

I was talking to my friend earlier and he was all distraught. He had smoke marijuana for the first time in his life after school. He has to take a hair test in a couple of days and they send the hair off to a lab to get tested. (We go to the same school). I was wondering if there is anyway to help him to get the stuff out of his system before possibly friday but next tuesday is the latest. What can you do that will actually work? He is a good guy but he is going through some tough stuff. He wanted to experiment and is really upset and spazzing out. Please help him...
