| Advice & Discussions | Just had food poisoning - need to gain weight fast A couple of days ago me, my brother and father had raw oysters. About 30 hours later we all fell ill with food poisoning. I've only just recovered, but still feel completely drained and have no apetite.
The actual food poisoning was pretty severe; chills, fever, abdominal pain, cramps and violent vomitting. | Fear of the dentist Yeah, it's a worldwide fear and very common, but I'm beginning to think I have some sort of irrational fear. I mean, I'll pretty much do anything to get out of going. The number of appointments I've skipped and cancelled is just ridiculous, but I fully understand that it's stupid of me to not go. | PMS Irritability and Anger Just wondering if I can find anyone who relates and has any advice or has gotten through using meds or vitamins or anything like that.
Around the time of my period, usually a couple weeks before and sometimes even after, I just become VERY irritated with EVERYONE and EVERYTHING. | Inner thight and butt pimples. Does anyone know of any remedies, or medicine that could help with this? I have had them for years, and have scars from them. It is really irritating, and so I thought maybe i'd post here to find out if anyone knows of anything to help.
Thanks. |
