// Open Question: How many women have to suffer before we realize that abortion is just wrong?

Board upholds license suspension of obstetrician in abortion injury
In unrelated case, panel takes action against Severna Park doctor in overdose death

A state medical panel upheld a suspension order Wednesday against an obstetrician who ran a clinic in which an 18-year-old woman was badly injured during an abortion.

Neither the doctor — George Shepard Jr., 88, who oversaw the five Maryland clinics of American Women's Services — nor his attorney appeared at the hearing in Baltimore of the Maryland Board of Physicians that was to hear evidence against him in the case of the woman, who suffered a perforated uterus and other injuries during an Aug. 13 procedure in Elkton.

The medical licenses of Shepard and another doctor, Nicola I. Riley, 45, were suspended last week. A third doctor in the case, Steven C. Brigham, 54, who state officials say owns the chain of clinics, was not licensed to practice medicine in Maryland and was ordered to stop doing so.

Riley, a family doctor who obtained her Maryland license July 20 and who medical officials say performed the Aug. 13 abortion under Brigham's instructions, was at home Wednesday in Salt Lake City. Two lawyers appeared at the hearing on her behalf and asked for a continuance on the grounds that they had not had sufficient time to prepare a defense. The 12 board members granted the continuance but did not set a date for a new hearing. In the meantime, Riley's license remains suspended.

Its sad that we got people that still support such a barbaric ritual.

When you stand before God you cannot say. Sorry Lord I was ignorant. There is going to be no excuse.

All the proof is in front of you and still you ignore it.

// Open Question: annoying acne, how can i get clear skin?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908202703AAjGww3
Lately I've been getting acnce on my t-zone (forhead, cheeks, chin) and it's so annoying! Thankfully the acne usually isn't that big or red, more like a bunch of tiny bumps. I've also noticed that throughout the day, my face gets really shiny/oily. I try to take care of my skin but it doesn't seem to help. I wash my face twice a day, I use bare minerals makeup which isn't supposed to clog pores, I drink water, take my vitamins, and apply spot treatment medicine at night. Anything else I could do to stop my face from breaking out?

// Open Question: Exercise causing re-swelling of fire ant bite?
// September 8, 2010 at 11:04 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908200412AA5C9nu
I got a fire ant bite exactly a week ago in the evening. It became a little swollen as they all do, but the next morning it was much worse. I took allergy medicine and used a topical bug treatment with little improvement. The next day I had a doctor's appointment, and he prescribed Clobetasol Propionate Ointment. This helped, and by the next day, Saturday, it was hardly swollen at all. I continued to use it Saturday but not after that as it seemed to be gone. The appointment was for a wart on my foot and so I was unable to do any running or exercise until today as it was sore. I went for a run this evening with my husband, about 1.25 miles before it was really swollen and hurt. I walked for a little while, hoping to run more and that the swelling would go down, but it's been 45 minutes, and it still hurts.

// Open Question: If Qur'an is really the holy book from Allah, then why are there so many scientific problems in the Qur'an?
// September 8, 2010 at 10:58 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908195804AAt8DRJ
Claiming that the Quran contains scientific or mathematical miracles does not prove anything in and of itself. The ancient, and idol-worshiping, Greek, Roman, Aztec and Indian people (along with MANY others) created literature, buildings, machines, medicine and ideas that seem “miraculous” to us today.

These statements get the main idea from the verse. If you complain and start saying "That's not how the Qur'an is written!" then yeah, I know that. Open up your Qur'an with each verse pointed out if you want to, then. If you don't believe in some of these statements and refuse to look the verse up, just assuming that the meanings have been "twisted," then you're ignorant, indeed. I'm just opening some eyes of Muslims who have not researched the Qur'an well.
If you truly believe the Qur'an is a word of god, you must tell me what makes EACH of these verses right.

Muslims say that the Quran’s description of a baby's development is, in itself, a miracle.
The Quran points out that a fetus grows from small to big and develops flesh and bones. It’s not a miracle to point out the obvious. Nor is it miraculous to say that a baby "clings" to the inside of its mother. Everyone, everywhere knows this! It's called an umbilical cord.
When you read the Quran you get the impression that a baby grows from the father’s sperm and that the mother’s womb is just an incubator. The Quran talks about a wife being “a tilth” (cultivated farmland) for her husband (2:223) and that her womb is “lodging” for his sperm (23:13). The Quran never mentions the ovum despite the fact that the egg does 99% of the work.

Does the “sinful hair” reference in verse 96:16 prove that the Quran knew that thoughts (sin) come from the brain? Why did Allah say “hair” when He really meant “brain”? Why not just say “brain” outright? Why don’t we assume that “hair” was referring to the scalp or scull? Verse 11:5 says that Allah knows what “thoughts are in your heart”. The Quran uses this “thinking heart” term over 100 times. Are we to take this “thinking heart” metaphor laterally - or does “heart” mean “brain” as well? Verse 55:41 agrees that sinners will be “seized by the forelocks...” but adds “...and the feet”. Verse 60:12 suggests that falsehood is created between the hands and feet.

The Quran claims that the night “covers” or “veils” the day. It must be true, it says this 4 times (7:54, 13:3, 91:4, 92:1). In reality, the “night” gets “covered” with a view-blocking “veil”, the blue sky.

Semen comes from between the backbone and the ribs (86:7). We need long, drawn-out explanations to try and explain this verse but are these “excuses” necessary for such a simple issue?

Stars are missiles used to shoot at devils (37:6-8, 67:5). Shooting stars are rocky meteors, not stars.

The sun rises and sets at two points on the Earth (18:85-90). This is NOT a metaphor. The Quran describes these places as real, physical locations. You get there by road and people live in these areas.

The Quran says that nothing holds birds up in the sky except Allah (16:79, 67:19). Air is a physical substance. Flight is not magic, just ask the Wright brothers.

Stars are located in the “lowest alssamai” or heaven (37:6). This is the same “alssamai” in which birds fly (16:79). The Quran doesn’t (or can’t) distinguish between the atmosphere and outer space.

The Quran claims that there are no flaws in Allah’s sky (literally, there are no gaps 50:6). What about the holes in the O-Zone that let in deadly radiation? Most of the holes are natural, not man-made.

Allah “sends thunderbolts and smites with them whom He pleases” (13:13). Is Allah is Zeus or Thor? Why does Allah allow man to redirect lightning with lightning rods? With metal rods, man gains the godlike power of determining lightning’s path? Lightning follows the path of least resistance, not Allah’s will. We have a scientific explanation for lightning - and it’s NOT magic!
Allah created everything in pairs (13:3, 43:12, 51:49). What about species that reproduce asexually?
Allah sent down to you 4 kinds of cattle/livestock (39:6). Muhammad knew about the 4 types of animals used in Arabia during his lifetime. But people worldwide have more than 4 types of livestock.
Men are “a degree above” women. 2:228
HandBanana: Thank you.
Wow, somebody already gave you a thumbs down. That's sad. They should explain what makes US wrong.
Let it rock: Explain how this is dumb?

// Open Question: Level 2 AC Joint Separation pain 2 years after incident?
// September 8, 2010 at 10:57 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908195756AAc3DOi
My husband had a Level 2 AC Joint Separation while he was deployed overseas 2 years ago. He was not able to get proper treatment and let it heal without medicine or a doctor. When he got home he went to a specialist and got xrays, physical therapy and a steroid shot. After he completed physical therapy, all pain was gone and movement of the shoulder came back. His doctor said that he should be fine and if anything, surgery may be an option later if the bump starts to cause him pain by carrying heavy bags and such all the time. He has had no problem with his shoulder for about 1 and a half years. He is deployed and suddenly all pain has returned. Movement is difficult and the pain is localized to the end of the clavicle where the injury took place. He can not see an actual doctor where he is and can not be transferred to another place. He has been taking anti-inflammitory medicine for about 5 days with no resolve. He has been going to the gym up until this point but has stopped since
the pain is intense. So my question is why is his pain back? I did some research and recurring pain is not common. I thought he might have just pulled a muscle but the pain is localized to the exact place where his injury was. What can he do? The medic told him it might be the steroid shot wearing off. What do you think?

I wrote my main essay which is just about a significant experience of mine which is sent to al colleges..for this specific college i must write an essay about why i chose the field of pharmacy, could you critique this for me? I can use all the help i can get..thanks!

Since the beginning of my high school career, all I wanted was to become a pharmacist. My aunt and uncle are both pharmacists and they were the ones who told me about the career. My aunt took me on a tour of the pharmacy she works in and showed me what she does as a pharmacist. From that point on I was positive that was what I wanted to do. I knew science and math classes were very important to have under one’s own belt, so I took as many science classes, and math classes as possible. I even did some research on my own about different medicine because I had, and still have such a great interest about that subject. I would love to have a chance to earn a doctorate degree in pharmacy, which this six year program will provide. I have a hunger to learn everything possible to become the best pharmacist possible. I have no problem sitting down and studying for hours upon hours as well as working hands on in the lab. I have good personable skills which I know is very important for the
job as well as obtaining and retaining the knowledge about the multitude of drugs.

// Open Question: Menstrual Back Pains!?
// September 8, 2010 at 10:12 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908191213AAx07G7
I'm fifteen, and I started my period when I was about twelve. During my period, I always get this horrible pain in my lower back that makes it hard for me to walk, or focus on anything. Recently, I had to leave school because I was in so much pain, and because of all the honors and college classes I am taking, I don't want to make this a regular occurrence!

Does anyone have any good remedies for menstrual back pains? I usually take four to six ibuprofen a day while I am on my period, but I heard that taking too much for a prolonged period of time can cause stomach ulcers- however, it is the only medicine that I have tried so far that works for me. (Tylenol and Midol, for example.)

I took my cat to the vet today for a persistent hacking and general lack of appetite and lethargy.

The vet concluded that he had a hairball that was stuck and gave me some medicine to help either pass it through or allow him to vomit it out.

He's been vomiting today, but it was just a foamy type vomit.
I've been giving him water through a syringe to keep him hydrated.

In the past hour he has been vomiting blood - most appears to be fresh, but there is what appears to be old blood as well. He's also been drooling in large amounts.

I called the emergency vet, but they won't see us because I simply do not have enough money in my account.

Someone please please help me =/
I will try the shelter tomorrow, but they are closed right now since it's 10 at night.

Unfortunately, I'm worried that he can't make it that long =(

// Open Question: Can medicine make you permanently smarter?
// September 8, 2010 at 9:31 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908183138AAHUDlI
For the past few days, I have wondered whether OCD medicine such as Lexapro actually makes people smarter and if that "intelligence" boost is permanent or not. Supposedly, it increases the amount of available serotonin for the brain by blocking the reabsorption of serotonin by the brain. Moreover, serotonin controls learning, memory, and a bunch of other things. So this would lead me to think that more serotonin available for the brain means that understanding concepts and what-not is easier and therefore causes you to be smarter.

I've taken lexapro and a bunch of other OCD medicine (risperodone, prozac, abilify) for a while, but I've stopped because my psychiatrist told me that OCD medicine can have "cognitive benefits." I really don't want to become smarter using medicine because when I take tests and do well, I feel like it's not me, it's the medicine. There's no way for me to know if I did well because I just I'm naturally smart or because of the medicine. Plus, I've heard that medicine in general can "change your brain." I keep thinking that because I've taken OCD medicine in the past, people will think that I'm just a cheater and not actually smart (though I've been told that I am smart) no matter how much I study to do well on tests.

Did OCD medicine really permanently make me smarter, or am I just imagining things?

// Open Question: Does the use of betacap (corticosteroid) have any hair loss side-effects as a result of skin thinning?
// September 8, 2010 at 9:07 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908180750AAsCVdE
I'm a 20 y.o. male, and I've been using betacap (a topical scalp application of corticosteroid for reduction of inflammation caused by psoriasis: http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/medicines/100000278.html) for around 7 months, once every day.

I've noticed my hairline has gone back. Also, my hair used to be incredibly dense and healthy, but now I'm noticing its not as dense - so much that I can very easily see my scalp now, which appears red in some places. Has this been caused by the betacap or could it be from the psoriasis plaques? I've read that betacap causes the thinning of skin...so does this thinning of the scalp skin mean I'm loosing hair as a result?

I've started putting essential oils in my hair regularly and avoid SLS shampoos, apart from Nizoral (Ketoconazole) which I use thrice a week. Should I change this or is there anything else I can do?

My mom has schizo affective disorder too. I do not have many friends. I'm nervous and anxious around people, even with people I know. I cry some times with no reason to cry. I get my feeling hurts easily. My thoughts go in a million miles per hour. I get really hyper, and sometimes manic.
WHEN I was an kid and in my teens, I could get destructive feelings and sometimes do them like one time when I was 12 yrs. old I made a very big mess in the kitchen. My dad says when I'm not taking my meds I have a wild look in my eyes. I have low self esteem. I like some times get weird feelings and I like when someone lays on the couch I'd push them off and that when I was 13 yrs. old.

I will be going to the Philippines this October for tourism purposes. I do have a valid International Passport.The country entry is 21 days but I would like to stay for 59 days upon my visit. I know that I can either apply for a Visa now or what is called a Visa Upon Arrival. Upon my arrival to the airport, I must show that I will leave the country in 21 days, but I would like to stay for the maximum of 59 days. My question is the following. Should I book my round-trip ticket with 59 days or should I book my ticket for 21 days even though I would like to stay for 59 days? I also take medicine for Anxiety, my medicine is Clonazepam in 1mg tablets once a day, would there be a problem for me to take my medicine there as I visit?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908173550AAu67ad
My symptoms:
-Constant worry
-Always having to know what time it is
-Making sure no one is watching me
-BAD anger problems
-Twitches (such as squinting)
-I will often think of very creative ideas, then I doubt I can't do it and I give up and get mad
-I think REALLY deep about things (it's quite ridiculous)
-Certain things I have to make sure are right (Like the door being locked)
-Constant daydreaming
-One time I got so nervous, that I had problems catching my breath
-I am scared when people or I if have to vomit

ALSO my dad takes medicine for some kind of chemical imbalance. I think he has anxiety.

If I think of more, I'll list them in details. I am only a 14 year old girl. This is taking over me. I don't know if it is generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), OCD, or what but it's clear that something is wrong. Yes I have asked this before, but I'm trying to see if I can get more answers (for the very fact that hardly anyone answered and told me a decent answer.)

I am 17 and have drinking regulary since I was 14, which is quite common in the country I'm from.
I have mild aspergers syndrome and have suffered from depression since I was 12.
I have always been an anxious person but it has gotten worse over the years and now it is crippling.
When people ask to meet me I agree but I won't be able to sleep that night and I will have panic attacks and stomach pains before I go to meet them, I appear to be a very confident person but it's all an act.
To combat my anxiety I have started to have shots of vodka before I go out because it puts me and ease and the panic fades, but now it is becoming a problem.
If I go out and there is no alcohol I panic, alcohol is like a security for me, it seems to solve my issues. But now it is like I cannot go out if I am not tipsy and I'm at loss at what to do, is this alcohol dependance?
I do take medicine for my anxiety but it evidently doesn't seem to work well.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908165656AAlUE0G
I have a 1 year old comet goldfish. I bought her when she was 1 inch long. She is 8 inches now. I had her in a tank with my other goldfish. Last week I noticed she had some white "fuzz" like stuff around the outside of her mouth. She was also acting skiddish around the other fish. I put her in a 40 gallon cycled tank by herself. I went to petsmart and bought some triple sulfa anti-bacterial medication by API. I removed the carbon from the filters and began to medicate her water over a 5 day span.It doesn't seem like it got better but it didn't get worse either. I'm wondering if the medicine even worked.She is eating well and acting normal, she just has that fungi stuff around her mouth.

My questions are : 1. What is this? 2. Whats the best way to treat.3. Does the fish food with antibiotics in it work? Any and all advice is appreciated.

I'm still not sure how she got it. My water chemistry is near Perfect. I do regular partial water changes and gravel vacuuming. I over filtrate and have plenty of aeration.Ammonia is at zero always.

Here is a link to a picture I took tonight. You can see the white "fuzz" on her mouth.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908165202AA1Fzxt
I have faced many issues like friends and coworkers not liking me. I think I am an easygoing person who just wants to have fun and accomplish things at the same time. I don't make many friends, but the ones I do have tend to be in my career path and very smart. They are the only ones who want me to succeed. I am considering a career in medicine, and I am going to a great undergraduate school now. Many of the other people I know do not try to help me, and I feel like they do not even try to be nice to me. They tend to ignore me in class. Only the doctors and professionals I work with in my internships like me.

I find that people, like my boss, do not like me because I am so hardworking. My boss, who owns a small store, used to like me and she said I am a good worker and very responsible. However, she recently (8 months after I began working at the store) told me she doesn't like how I work and she ignores me constantly. She also makes rude comments about me to customers. She never says what she doesn't like about me, or why there was a change of heart. My coworkers have also started picking on me about how much I study about how I don't have a life, and even about my weight (i am not even heavy!!).

So my question is, what can I do when people try to make me feel terrible? And it is not just me, there are other people close to me who have noticed people aren't very friendly to me, even if I don't really know them.
Casey- (I am actually only 20). Those are my exact words! Kill them with kindness!! But gets overwhelming sometimes... Thanks!

I was diagnosed with genital herpes about 6 months ago when my boyfriend at the time cheated on me and gave me genital herpes. I am now in a new relationship and want to do anything and everything I can to keep from spreading this disease to my new boyfriend, however I don't know what to say to my doctor. I am pregnant with my ex boyfriends child and know it is okay to take valtrex or other meds for genital herpes while pregnant, but I'm scared my doctor is going to think it's weird that I want to be on a daily dose of valtrex to help keep from spreading it to my new boyfriend, and I don't want to have to explain my new relationship to her. I also don't know how common it is for a person to be on a daily dose to keep from spreading genital herpes, because I would think my doctor would have done that in the first place if this was common? If you are on a medicine like valtrex to keep from spreading it to your sexual partners, please help me!

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908162319AAlkwcs
Hi, I was messing around with my boyfriend and he touched his penis to my vagina, but didn't ejaculate (he didn't ejaculate earlier in the day either or the day before) nor did we have actual intercourse. I also started my normally heavy period the day after (usually starts with brown discharge and gets extremely heavy for the next 6 days).

The week after that, I started panicking at the thought of pregnancy and became extremely stressed out. Two days following that I had a severe headache, nausea, and diarrhea, and since have had frequent urination, pain in my lower abdomen, and some slight lower back pain. I was given Macrobid by my doctor who said that I was NOT pregnant (urinalysis, but the urinalysis was two weeks after my "intimate experience") and had white blood cells in my urine. I took this and my abdominal pain subsided. I finished my medicine 48 hours ago.

Now, I am experiencing an occasional metallic taste in my mouth and have sore breasts. My period isn't due until the 19th, and I'm used to feeling sore breasts a little less than a week before I begin (not at this level of soreness either). I am also experiencing lots of gas and persistent diarrhea. Am I pregnant? Or just paranoid? Is this caused by stress?

We have seen a change in medicine form Doctor being the fatherly figure and deciding, to patient decision. Do you find medical decisions stressful, do you wish your doctor would just get on with it. Do you think googling something makes you better informed....

I am hospital doctor myself and make decisions with my patients, which is also the law. But Iam curious what you think.
Ooh arent you clever, because Doctors dont make mistakes do we, we are synthetic life forms, we feel no emotions, have no social life. I go home and I read medical journals all day long. Why dont you go and get a bit more experience in life, boy.
I agree I think it is for a patient to decide, based on up to date recommendations. I want to know if there is a group of people who dont like that choice.

Hello Everyone!

I need some advice on where i should attend my last two years of high school, the reason being is because about 4 years ago my family and i moved from our home in the states to Dubai, UAE .

Attending an international school our so called American curriculum is NOT like the education i received back home, in some ways its a bit mixed up, including various pieces of different curriculum, such as the IGCSE of Cambridge. In any case, its more of a LIQUID than a SOLID curriculum.

Now its been decided that I will finish my last year of high school in the states but according to what Ive been reading , junior year is the most important. SO, i would really like to put all my efforts into a curriculum that's straight forward .

The other day my parents talk to my brothers and i about staying in dubai for another two years, hence, i would graduate from there.

Would it be better to graduate from overseas?
Would i have to take the TOEFL exam?
Do you think it would be best to finish my last two years in america?
what are the benefits of going to high school in america rather than one in a foreign country?

I think that going back home and finishing school there is whats best to do, because im planning on going to college and university (medicine ) at home in the states, so maybe my last two years in america would be better for me

For the past week, towards evening and when I wake up in the morning, I start having a lot of chest congestion, coughing, and occasionally sneezing. After I am up and moving around for a bit, the symptoms for the most part go away, minus some lingering congestion. Then when it's close to bedtime, the symptoms start back up again. It has now become progressively worse, in that anytime I lay down, the coughing and congestion start back up, and it now takes several hours for the symptoms to go away. I'm a little baffled, and I don't seem to have a fever or any pain.

And I have been taking medicine for both the congestion and the coughing before I go to bed and after I wake up, although it doesn't seem to relieve my symptoms.

I'm a 14y/o girl, and for a while, I've been wondering if there might be something wrong with me. Every few months for the last year or two, I've been having these insane "tantrums", let's say. I should start from the beginning, just to give you some background.

When I was 2, my parents divorced. I can hardly remember the days when the three of us were together, so the fact that they're apart has never really bothered me, I guess. I was a very stubborn child, and I got into trouble a lot, or so I seem to remember. My mom remarried when I was 6, and my dad had a longterm girlfriend, I'll call her Ms. Lene, from the time that I was 3 or 4 until about a year ago. When they moved in together, when I was about 8, my mom started taking me to see a therapist regularly, although I can't really remember why.

Around this time, my doctor also had me start taking a medicine called Strattera, which, I believe, was supposed to help me concentrate, but I think my mom told me it helped my moods too. Later, I switched to Concerta, and about 2 years ago, a medicine called Adderall.

From the time I was about 4, I absolutely despised smoking or tobacco of any form. My dad had been smoking for years, and I hated it. He always promised to quit, but then started up again. This made me very stressed as a kid, and I remember I would often worry that my daddy would die. One day, when I was about 7, I caught him smoking (he always tried to hide it), and I cried for hours. This is the earliest memory I have of throwing one of my major tantrums (but of course, it went unnoticed, because I was still a small child). I yelled at my dad, told him he was a liar, that I didn't want to visit him until he quit. He felt very bad, I think, and promised it would never happen again. But things like this continued to happen for several years.

As I got older, I didn't have so many of these problems, but when I was 10, I started getting in huge arguments with my mom. Things like "I hate you" and "I wish you were dead" came from my mouth, as I sobbed and argued with my mom. In the last year or so, things have gotten WAY out of hand, though. When I get mad, I erupt in fury and in hysterical sobs. I cry and hyperventilate for hours, and I completely lose control. I can't stop myself. I get dizzy and lightheaded, and I scream. I'm not angry, really; I just can't stop screaming.

So far, this has only happened a handful of times, and it's always with my family. They tell me to shut up, go to my room, "Stop making everything so difficult for the whole family." I feel like a monster. I get so stressed out. My mom says things like, '"Katy, you don't understand what you do to this family. We do so much for you, and you act like a bratty, unappreciative little bitch. If you dared to do that to your friends or your future husband, you wouldn't have any relationships. Everybody would think you're a psycho." But she just doesn't get it! I don't try to do it. I get so stressed out, and I can't think straight. On the inside, I know it's wrong, I know that I NEED to stop. But I know that I can't stop it. Afterwards, I feel like such a horrible person. I pray to God that I can stop putting my family and myself through all this.

This isn't anything like the person I am in real life. I'm happy, bubbly, confident, the most friendly, outgoing person in any room. I'm smart, I have so much going for me. I don't mean to be vain, but I attract people like a magnet. And I'm always genuinely happy! I have a positive outlook on life. A good family with good values. It doesn't make sense that a person like myself could have so many issues.

I'm thinking I could have an anxiety disorder. My psychologists always told me I had to manage my worries. Or could it possibly be a personality disorder?

I was also nausaus and extremly lightheaded, very bloated, could hardly eat anything, I went to uc but they couldnt figure out what it was. today i weighed myself and realized ive lost 4 pounds since yesterday. i still forced food into myself yesterday so i dont understand whats going on with the weight loss and why im having such intense pains after my period ended. could it be a cyst or something else?!
im only 18, 5'3 and 103 pounds. if that helps.. :] thank you!

// Open Question: How should I reply back to my boyfriends email?
// September 8, 2010 at 4:41 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908134112AAKbmV4
Hi. I've been dating my boyfriend for about 7 months. He's an emergency medicine resident (2nd year). He is overwhelmingly busy now. He works long hours at the hospital and after he has to fill out chats and so on. He rarely has time for now anymore. We used to hang out a lot more during his 1st year residency but now work is a whole different creator this year. I feel neglected because I don’t get to see him as much as I want to or talk to him as much anymore. I understand his busy schedule which is why I don’t complain to him but I don’t want him to think that I don’t mind not hanging out with him. It’s hard to mention something like this to someone who is so busy because I feel like this brings on more stress for him. I feel like I’m losing connection with him, although every time we hang out we have so much fun. I still think he's really into me but right now it’s just hard for him to manage his personal time. He wrote an email to me last night saying “I'm sorry
we couldn’t hang out tonight. It's just been a rough stretch. I haven't allowed any time to recover and take care of myself.. I just feel like I'm wasting away. There is so much pressure to be efficient and move fast at work, and then expectations to read and study, all my charts afterward, and then trying to fit family, friends, and personal time in too. It's like trying to spread too little butter over a big piece of toast; just constantly being spread to thin and don't feel like I'm doing well at any of them…” Any advice on how to back without nagging? I just want to be a supportive girlfriend. Thanks in advance.

// Open Question: What if it changed me and now I can't handle the pressure at all anymore? Is that even possible?
// September 8, 2010 at 4:29 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908132935AAbjy3p
I had a breakdown in high school. I never thought I'd miss my time there. Socially, things were great, but I'm a perfectionist, so I always needed 100s or I'd get very upset with myself, so academically I hated it (it was just a ton of pressure to be flawless).

I'm in college now, I miss my school and I miss my teachers and I miss home. It took giving-up having a life and any tiny bit of happiness I had left in me to make it to the top of my class, so how on earth am I supposed to excel in college when I had to study non-stop (day and night, plus I starved myself (so not having food saved time, though that's not why I did it)) just to excel in high school?

For years, I've wanted to kill myself, but once I earn my doctorate I'll finally get to take a vow of poverty and volunteer all the time (I volunteer now, but it's not the same), plus, I need to be here for my family. Also, suicide is against my religion.

I have no idea what to do. School is too much for me. I got desperate enough to go to therapy and to take medicine (both of which I'm against), and to take a gap year last year, and I still can't handle school. The pressure is too great. I'm so blessed to have this opportunity, but I'd rather die than continue on with all of this pressure (I've felt it since before I even started kindergarten).

I used to believe in mind over matter, because starving and not sleeping definitely were very tiring, but I never let my grades drop, however, now I can't overcome this hurdle. No matter how many times I hear that no one's perfect or to just relax, I can't stop obsessing. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I'm tired of it. I just want to help people, but I have to earn my degrees in order to do it in the way I want to; plus, education is my life, I either complete college and graduate school or I kill myself.

I don't want to die, but I can't handle school anymore.

What if I've tried everything and I continue to get worse? What if I can't get past what happened in high school no matter how many times I tell myself I'm over it?

Thank you for your time.
I'm really sorry, I mis-worded my post. I'm still in therapy. Thank you so much, I appreciate your response and help!

Ok I understand that there is a process in order to get into a college, but placing the possibility aside that I couldn't get into the college of my choice, I would like some guidance on what to do.
I would really like to get into NorthWestern University in Evanston, Illinois.
It is a great school for me to commute to and I know that they have a school of medicine.
I would like to become a Pharmacist but im not sure what steps to take.
So say I go to Northwestern, Do I take regular classes like chemistry and math? Or would I jump into my major, which I would assume would be medicine? Im so confused could anyone help me?

// Open Question: how to get ride of social anxiety disorder?
// September 8, 2010 at 4:05 PM

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908130515AAcwA5m
ok so i have an anxiety disorder, & it makes me pretty quiet and shy.
so i found a description of it and i fit this 10000000%.
"Excessive Self-Consciousness – you are overly aware of yourself, particularly in social situations.
Excessive Negative Self-Evaluation – you tend to see yourself negatively.
Excessive Negative Self-Preoccupation – you tend to pay too much attention to all the things you are doing wrong when you are around other people."

so everyone that i can be myself around with tells me i'm very funny, have quick wit, and amazing comebacks. & they always say that if i was myself in school i would be popular.
but i'm pretty quiet & shy and i have no idea how to get rid of it.
what can i do? medicine?
when i'm in school i feel like i can never think of the right words to say or anything to talk about, i have friends and i can be myself around them, but when i wanna meet new people it's pretty hard to become good friends cause i have this retarded anxiety thing.
please tell me how i can get rid of this.
thanks.

3. What treatment are you using (therapy, medicine, etc)?
4. Have you seen improvement since starting treatment, and how?
5. For those using medication, have you had any side effects? If so, what are they?
6. What do you think caused your social anxiety?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100908125111AAHEoNf
I was a biology major originally going for pre-med but after interning in the ER I decided medical school was not for me. I switched to biotechnology for medical research but in the end chemistry is just kicking my butt and mutilated my once excellent GPA. To get back in the swing of things and because I decided on law school, I switched my major to political science.

Everyone I talk to is saying that I'm making a mistake, that there are too many lawyers, not enough jobs and that I really should stick to medicine. I don't want to be a doctor, I think I could be really great at law. I'm working on getting my GPA back up and I plan on studying like crazy for the LSAT but I keep hearing doubt in people's voices everytime I talk to a friend or someone new. I know I'm smart and that I can handle it. But is it really a mistake because of the overabundance of lawyers?
Thanks, but I'm not really sure I'm interested in nursing either. I understand that doctors and lawyers aren't everything, but I really want a challenging career. I just have this inexplicable drive that makes me want to choose law.

Hi,

I am borderline GD with a running 2 hr result at about 128 if I eat no carbs. If I eat carbs at all, even a bowl of cereal it spikes to 180-200.

So I am completly outdoing carbs 100 percent rather than take the oral medicine they prescribed instead of the safe insulin (which I will try to bend there arm on this)

So I am not a big meat eater and never have been. Maybe thats the prob?

I went to the store last night and bought a bunch of Teriyaki (very slim lean cut) beef and grilled it with A1 sauce. That's all I ate for dinner. And my blood sugar spiked to 160 ! Was it the A1 sauce?

Thanks so much :)
