Health Insurance
Posted Saturday January 8 2011, 2:23 pm
I'm a citizen of EU (Poland, specifically). If I want to study abroad in an EU country, do I need to pay for international health insurance? Or will I be able to just use the universal health insurance there? Which countries in the EU have universal health insurance?

Im kinda scared...
Posted Monday January 3 2011, 6:51 pm
Okay so I live in Kelowna and I just took a trip to Vancouver. Its around a 4-5 hour drive and we go like through the mountains and my ears popped a whole bunh. I just got home today and its only been like 2-3 hours and my ear started to feel like i had a whole ton of pressure. And when I move my head sometimes or bend down and come back up then it kinda sounds like I have water in there but I havent been in any since its winter. Adn when I bend down my ear hurts or if I put my head down and bring it back up it hurts. I tried cleaning my ear and it didnt work it keeps happening and the last time I put in a Q-tip a thing came out on it and it looked like kind of a.....a plastic tube but it was tiny and had ear wax onit but it was squishable....

What will happen to my uterus?
Posted Saturday January 1 2011, 11:44 pm
So i get my period once a year. For a whole week every january. i didn't get mine yet this month considering it's the first day of the new year. I was close to taking one step plan b the other day in december until i realized that if i take it, i will bleed non- stop because of all the uterus lining and blood all left in there. what's going to happen to my body with all that lining and blood in my uterus? what do you think will happen when i next get my period. will i bleed blood clots? how do i get all that lining and blood out of there? Also, is there a name for only having a period once a year? n i've only gotten my period twice my whole life.

I'm having the worst christmas/new years break ever :'(
Posted Thursday December 30 2010, 7:30 pm
Ok so im having the worst christmas break ever. Im sick with a cold, a sore throat, and my left ear is in a lot of pain and I've been sneezing ALL DAY!!!. I tried getting myself better using medicine and all that but I just seem to be getting worse. My car's transmission went bad. So i have to get a new one for over 2,000 dollers. But i have to buy a new car INSTEAD. If someone can help me find a cheap car that would be great because I've looked everywhere online. I'm 19 btw. And I worked overtime last night to make more money. I have nothing to do for new years because I don't have a car. I just got my period today so I'm really moody. And I've been crying for the past 2 hours. :'( My mom wants me to go to this single's dance tomorrow but ...

I've had unexplained diarrhea for 4 days straight. Should I see a doctor?
Posted Sunday December 26 2010, 8:28 am
I know this is a little TMI for some people but surely there is somebody out there who doesn't get offended by natural bodily functions.
I started to have some cramping 4 days ago when I woke up from sleeping. The cramping felt like mild period cramping. For note, I get diarrhea on my period every month. So, when I went and had diarrhea that morning I thought I must be starting my period more than a week early (been under A LOT of stress). No period has come, by the way (but I'm not late).
The mild cramping subsided and for the next 4 days I proceeded to expel everything possible from my body through my butt. I didn't feel like a CONSTANT need to go poo, but, rather, it would come suddenly with intestinal cramp...

I can't stop thinking about starving myself to lose weight!! What do I do?
Posted Saturday December 11 2010, 12:03 pm
I know everyone is just going to say "eat!" but that's not what I need people to be telling me. I think I need serious help. I haven't been "starving" myself yet but I have begun to try to limit myself to only eating once a day to lose weight. I know that starving yourself is bad for u obviously but I'm so desperate at this point that I don't even care anymore. I'm not overweight I dontthink but I hate the way I look. I'm 5'8 and 120lbs. I can't look at myself in the mirror without wanting to cry and have found myself browsing through pro anorexia websites and pictures. I have nobody to talk to about this! What do I do?
