Piercing Risks
Posted Friday August 14 2009, 3:10 am
~ I'm planning on getting a belly button piercing so I've asked my friends for references and have been calling around. Some people had some wierd advice though. One person said you shouldn't use barbels when you're still healing, someone else said you shouldn't use gold, but I'm allergic to most metals especially if they're in a piercing so I want to use gold. So, other than AIDS what are some risks/tips/tricks that I should be aware of?

boyfriend throwing up blood
Posted Thursday August 13 2009, 3:14 am
he's 16 turning 17 next month.
recently, me and him kinda got into an incident where things happened and our family got upset. but apparently, i say that his father took it way too far.. he punched him in the stomach, and my boyfriend coughed out blood then passed out. he was already tired when that happened, because he was crying and he had marching band the whole day. and ever since, he said he's been throwing up blood... is there a way to stop him from throwing up blood?

boyfriend weird health problem
Posted Thursday August 13 2009, 3:12 am
he's 16
and i didn't find this out until today, he said it always happened to him since he was little. he said that when he sleeps, once and a while he blacks out kinda like a comma and has low blood pressure, then his heart starts slowing down. he said he went to the doctor to get it checked up, they say that only happens when he had too much alcohol.. and they said it wasn't alcohol, so they didn't know what it was. i was thinking it was over stress, because his whole family is depending on him and he had money problems.. but i'm not that sure. can anyone help me on this?! i'm really worried, and i just want to take care of him.

Sonogram..Water?
Posted Wednesday August 12 2009, 6:16 pm
Hi everyone,
So in about a month, I'm going to the clinic to get a sonogram of my ovaries, and they gave me the instruction to drink A LOT of water (16 oz an hour before, and 16 oz 30 mins before) and to not urinate. The problem is, ever since a child, I do NOT drink water. I absolutely hate it, and no matter how much I try, I just can't get myself to even drink a cup of water. My question is, do I HAVE to drink plain water, or can I put something in my water? Specifically this:

I have been having alot of problems the past two weeks and have no idea whats wrong.
i have had a terrible upset stomach for the past two weeks it hurts terribly if im hungry and right after i eat which makes me not feel like eating and nothing sounds good to me.

Scars
Posted Tuesday August 11 2009, 7:19 am
I didn't know where to put this question, but I hope it's OK here.
I'm 15/F from the UK. And earlier this year I had a really rough time at school because I didn't know where I belonged anymore (with friends, I mean) and consquently, I self harmed on my lower left arm. No one knows about it apart from my closest best friends. But it's been really hard recently trying to cover it up with cardigans, jumpers and hoodies etc.
I know, I know, I was wrong to do what I did, but it happened and there is nothing I can do about it (or at least I don't think I can) and I really regret doing it. It's like a living memory of the loss of friends and regret that I see everyday - I hate it.
I really wanted to ask what you think I could...

my tooth hurts when eating after tooth nerve removal
Posted Tuesday August 11 2009, 7:01 am
Yesterday I went to the dentist and he removed the nerve of my tooth. Now when I try to eat on it, my tooth hurts. I have to eat slowly on one side. It only hurts when I eat and chew on it.
Do I have pain beacuse of the irritation of the nerve removal or what? Should I wait for some days and than I'll call my dentist?
Is there anyone who did tooth nerve removal? Can you help me pls?

When you get braces do they put any needles in so they have to numb you like getting a filling?

What does it mean if there's nitrogen?
Posted Monday August 10 2009, 8:21 pm
I went to the doctor and they did a test to see if I had a urinary tract infection and instead it came back saying I had nitrogen in my urine. The doctor got kinda serious and said they were sending the "sample" thing off and wouldn't tell me why or what it meant. I know no one here's a doctor or anything, but I'm kinda nervous now. Does anyone know what it means?

mole
Posted Monday August 10 2009, 6:03 pm
15/f so i have a mole in a rather awkward spot, in my inner thigh vagina area. i REALLY wanna get it removed obvioulsy because im scared if someone sees it they would freak out or something. I have other moles on my body, and i got one removed the other day, and im getting the others removed soon. i thought that would be the perfect opportunity to get it removed right? wrong! my dad decided that he HAD to come in the room with me for some reason. so i don't know when i am ever going to get them removed! i heard that you can actually remove moles yourself, but im scared...that is a delicate spot and im sure it could get infected easily right? what should i do, any advice? i want it gone!
