My sister, 40/f, was scratched by her kitten a couple weeks ago and was feeling ill so she went to the hospital. They informed her she has Cat Scratch Fever...Yes, it's a real disease!
I have researched this for her, but I cannot seem to find out how long her symptoms are supposed to last.
Has anyone out there experienced Cat Scratch Fever, and if so would you please share it with me? Any help is appreciated!
hey, im not sure exactly how long but i know that its months. i think i read no more then 6 months somewhere.

today i went to the dentist and they said that i had to get it pulled. so tomorrow i am getting it pulled at 11:30 A.M. i have gotten a tooth pulled before but that was when i was 7 and it was loose but it didn't hurt and i had novicane then. this time i have novicane but this tooth is nnot loose. please can i have some advice. thx
hey, ive had 8 teeth pulled in my life. some where from when i was little and some happened last year. when i got it done they first gave me some laughing gas. laughing gas is a mask that they put over you that makes you drowsie and makes you laugh. then i got some novicane. after the surgery make sure you have planned somewhere to lay down and maybe before you leave put some of your favorite movies near you to have someone put in for you. take the pain killlers that they give you if you need to.

Ok. Im thirteen years old and I'm around 125-130 lbs. I'm not sayint i'm fat, I am just really muscular in my legs. Although, I do have alot of, un-wanted fat in my stomach. My mom says I don't need to loose weight, but that is what moms are supposed to say. I look at my friends, or family, and they are so much smaller than me. Me and my best friends share clothes all the time. But my clothes seem to be a little baggy on her. I always feel so bad. :( My question is, what are some ways I can loose weight? I would like a detailed answer please, not just "eat right and work out." thankyou so much in advance. :)
hey, well like the other girl said dont compare yourself to other people. just take a look in the mirror and decide if your really truly fat or if you just want to loose a little weight. then do sit-ups and run around the block. make sure to eat every meal because if you dont your body will go into starvation mode. eat responisbly tho.
maybe get more active.

My friend has tried to kill herself many times because she thinks shes ugly. I tell her shes beautiful but she won't believe me. People make fun of her and say shes ugly, but I told her its just because they are JEALOUS. I feel if I post a picture of her on here, and I want to know if you guys really think shes ugly. Honestly, I think shes really pretty but she thinks I'm just saying that. Do you think she's pretty? http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=21583599&imageID=983295681&MyToken=72866b2d-41b3-4a0f-89b8-e84a24a369a8 I'd mostly like guys to answer this because most of the time she tries to kill herself is over guys, but girls can give there opinion too. I need a lot of answers so I'm going to rate everyone who answers. She wants me to help her change her appearence so if you think anything needs to be changed like her hair or whatever just tell me, and I will try to help her. I don't want her to die, so please answer as soon as you can!
hey, i think shes pretty. maybe you could put some makeup on her. her hair is gorgeous, maybe some highlights?

I am trying to train up for the cheerleading squad... How can I do that? Running around the neighborhood is not a good option right now, but in the house we do have some free weights and rubber bands. I just want to be stronger and more ready for the practices. Can anyone help me?
hey, well i had to try out for cheering a little while ago. i made A team! but ive been cheering for 5 years tho. just practice your motions and make sure your tight and clean. if your a base maybe lift some weights. if your a flyer practice standing in a lib. front or back just practice completyl

Okay, so i'm a 14/f. About 4 months ago, i was 125 pounds, and i was disgusted with my body. So i decided i was going to lose weight. Well i chose the wrong path to take. I basicly cut down on food. Well, now i am 115 pounds. And today i realized something was wrong.
I was starving, and my friend, my boyfriend and my mom went to the mall, we ate there and i had about 4 peices of orange chicken and like 3 pieces of broccoli, and a fork full of rice, and i was full and i thought i was going to throw up because i was so full.
And I'm not like that, usually, i can eat pretty well. Is there any eatting disorder that can relate to this, because i'm 99% sure i'm not Bulemic or Anorexic.
And please don't say "just eat more", it's harder than you think.
Help please?
hey, well i think your stomach has shrunk due to the amount of food that you now eat. because you dont eat alot now your stomach cant hold as much as it used to. its going to take some time to get your stomach back to normal. just keep eating until your full everyday and eventually you will get back to normal. once your back to normal weight, if youy want to loose weight run around your block or do situps. just do anything dafer then what you did the first time.

alright, so i have been a veggie for about five years, and i didnt notice anything wrong. but in the past two years my body has been acting different. a year and half ago i was diagnosed with anemia. i had lower and low iron, and i had to take pills so i would have energy. i've been taking blood tests every 4 months since, and they say i've been getting better. Also i've really noticed, with in the past two years, hair loss, or thinning. i never really had thick hair, but it's gotten to be so thin and you can see it on the bathroom floor, it's really gross. it'll fall out when i brush it, wash it, blowdry it, straighten it. anything. i use heat protector aswell.
so my question is .. has anyone gone through this as well? mainly the hair thinning part. and who should i go talk to? when i talk to my mom my mom says "cause you dont eat" and i do. i eat a lot. and my doctor says "we'll run some tests" but we never do. is there a certain doctor that i should see? thank you.
hey, im a veggie too. ive been one my whole entire life. ive nevre experienced any sort of these problems. so i dont believe that being a veggie is the cause. hair loss occurs often when your on some sort of drugs. so if your taking drugs that could be it. as for the weight loss, there are veggie burgers and other veggie stuff that you can eat that might help gain some weight. veggie burgers have no meat in them just to let you know just incase you didnt know. also make sure you dont skip any meals. if you really want those tests that your docotr keesp promising let him know that your serious about it, and that you really truly want them done. tell him not to take this lightly.

I have a Nokia 6103 (they are like the 6101, 6102, and 6102i) I am on Tmobile, on an unlimited plan of everything. Yet here is the problem: I have a radio in my phone. When I first got the phone it would let me use the radio whenever. Then one day it stopped working. And I am aware it requires a headset but even with it, it will no longer work. It shows a prompt saying "Not Allowed". I have no idea why it stopped working. It does not have anything to do with interference or getting no signal for my radio since I am in the network, and I have all my bars.
what could be possible problems?
hey, well if a manual came with your phone or something try reading up on that. otherwise call the nokia place or go to the store where you bought you phone from and maybe they can help you.

I am looking for this electronic game that I can't remember the name of it. It's a teen game where you have this purple phone and you call a bunch of guys and ask them to come to your mom and sometimes they'll say Yes or no. I keep thinking it's something along the lines of, "Phone date" or something, I looked this up and it's not coming up with it. Does anyone know the name of this game?
Thanks.
hey, its called dream phone. i used to love that game when i was younger lol. i believe you can still buy it at like walmart or k.b toys.

Well, My mother is trying to read my mind. She sets me up without "knowing" and then says im doing it because (some weird hatful things im doing) and it`s making think shes nuts. She is crazy tho. I could get her put away in a M.H.
But, I have sleeping problems. I have this annoying ring in my ears. But it goes away with white noise(or any noise) but a fan puts me asleep with ease. So i get home for being on my own, after all my shit was stole. And i ask for a fan, she says i have a fan. The ceiling fan i have is the most annoy! Its quite, I have to sleep on my back(which i almost never do, like 1-50) Cuz if i turn my head the ringin in my ear is there.I almost died cuz i was so sick of sleepin on my back i slept face down with a pillow on my forehead so i could have air, i wake up coughin to death drownin in my own drool!!! On my back my whole mouth is dry, it takes me hours to fall alseep. And i have to be tired. Like missin a good amount of sleep. Im missing so much sleep i keep seeing things, plus im really paranoid. Im now missing over 40 hours. I tell this to her she flips out and thinks im lying. Im a Buddhist so im not lying, i cant! And she hates the fact im Buddhist when she has no religion. What can i say for her to shut her trap and listen for more then 30secs. And i tell her this and she says im not doing this, but im doing some complex plan to make her mad or something? So help!
hey, save up some money and buy a fan. you can by them from either a place like CVS or walmart. fans are about 5-10 dollars. maybe see a doctor to.

I've had a problem for a few years with gas bloat in my stomach. Usually it happens after I eat, but not all the time. Tonight I had mexican food and about an hour after I got back home I started to bloat just below the ribs. It's finally subsiding now, but it was REALLY painful, so much that it bent me double when I tried to stand straight. It happens when I drink soda as well (which gives me painful hicups on top of that).
Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing this and why the gas isn't being let out quicker? I also have trouble with burping, I can feel the gas come up but then it just stops. Any help would be much apreciated!
hey, since im not a doctor im not sure what is wrong with you. i think it might be accid reflex but im not 100% sure. you should go to a docotor and try to find out whats wrong with you jsut to mkae sure.

My life pretty much sucks all thanks to this one girl Linda. This is why ; In 3rd grade she took my #1 best friend away from me. Soon, I got over it. Now all thanks to her I met this guy Paul. I can hardly even stand him. Because May 30, we went out, and then he broke up with me 5 days later. I was crushed. July 21, he fell back inlove with me. [Again], 5 days later he broke up with me
Here is the worst part. Today was Linda's party. I tried and tried to loose weight, but my stupid body is to fat. Anyways I went to her party. Amy was there. Amy is really pretty. I really dislike Amy. She was like "ooh, i hate fat people, thats discusting" infront of my face. Paul was there. Paul did not speak to me at all, but he kept starring at me. He is really cute.
Linda's away message [on aim] said she`s going to the movies with Amy and Paul. They were making fun of Paul before.
Sometimes I feel like there is noone to talk to but god. I don`t know why that whatever I say everybody thinks it`s pointless. It has a meaning to me.
Anyways my mom doesnt seem to care about me, at all. But im fine i guess. My father passed away about 5 months ago.
I woke up today at 1. By 2, my day was ruined. Well, I imed Paul, and he blocked me. I was talking to Tyler & Tyler was like now he knows your fat.
Well guess what the 1st day of school, [Aug. 15] I am going to wow everyone. They are going to wish they never made fun of me. Nobody knows how bad I feel. It seems like nobody on this planet loves me. Also, I feel like I cannot trust anyone. Anyways, I fouund out Paul & Amy made out in the movies for 30 minuetes. Oh, how I wish i was Amy. Kyle said Linda was hot. I have to agree with him. Everyone is hot, but me. I am deffently going on a diet. =]
Right now, I don`t know how I feel. All I know is like I hate Amy. Yesterday and today were the worst days of my life. Right know it seem as if my mom hates me. Whats new? I really need to improve my life. One day im going to snap.
Right now im pretty cheered up. Guess what! Paul hates Amy! After she made out with Paul she made out with other guys. Paul apologized to me.
THIS WAS IN MY JORNAL EVERYTHING UP THERE.
Now this is just me typing. Everything seems to be so confusing. I feel unloved by everyone. Please do not recommend conseling. [sp?]
Sorry it was so long. !
hey, i think youy need to find some new friends. linda && amy && paul are causing you way to much pain and sufferings. if you need to talk to anyone, im usually always on aim. if you message me your s/n for aim and leave it in my inbox i will be happy to talk to you.

does the scar stay on forever.because I poped a white pimple on my face and this white stuff came out and the pimple turned redder and the scar started going away little by little then it just stayed there...
hey, well popping pimples is a part of life. you need to do it to get the [ sounds gross ] but puss out of it to prevent further oily skin. because oily skin causes pimples. pro-activ is the best for getting rid of acne scars, but there is also other products out there. do not use toothpaste on pimples, it makes them worse. also getting frequent facials helps with oily skin and helps prevent further pimples.

My best friend is an every sunday, church and really religious parents, and i took her to a party and she met a guy. She has only told me her secret, but she has already missed two periods! She might be pregnant and she really needs to tell her parents, but she is so afraid of how they react. If she is pregnant, she wants to keep the baby, she doesn't beleive in abortion or adoption, but she is afraid her parents will make sure she gets rid or the baby.
PLEASE HELP MY FRIEND AND I!!!
hey, well make sure she is definately pregnant before telling her parents. take a pregnancy test or go to a hospital to find out. if she is pregnant, you have two options. 1. if her parents dont believe in abortions either then i think she should tell them. because in that case they would let her keep the baby. but if she still wnats to tell them about it even if they believe in abortions then she has to sit down with them and talk with them about the whole thing in a civilized way. 2. dont let them find out until its time to have the baby. you can usualy hide that your pregnant by wearing big baggy clothes. i dont recommend doing this tho. the option 1. is much better. but its you guys descision.
