  • Is this a stress fracture or something else?

    My foot started hurting about a week ago. I had just started running regularly again (15 miles/week) and I noticed pain in my heel. My first thought was a stress fracture, but now I'm doubting that. I've been reading that most stress fractures are in the metatarsals (when they're in the foot) and this is definitely lower heel. If my heel was a clock, I would put the pain at about the '8' on the clock face (left foot) I stopped running almost a week ago just to be safe. I have a 1/2 I would like to do later this summer, so the prospect of resting because of a stress fracture is depressing.

    Oh, and I actually don't really notice it when I ran on it.

    I will go to the Dr if it persists, but I just thought I would throw this out there. Any thoughts appreciated, thanks.

  • Best format for a 4 team Fantasy Football league?

    I'm running a leauge for my three idiot friends who wanted to play FF after they watched "The League". I'm in a regular league (currently first!) and take that one more seriously, so this is just for fun. To say its been chaotic is an understatement. We don't have any rules for trades, $$ for FA pickups or an entry fee. Looking for suggestions primarily on number of players per team but anything else will be appreciated. We want to keep it a 4 man league for now. Thanks.

    ( also none of the three has ever played before this)

  • Why do sites keep asking me to upgrade Firefox?

    I have a Mac and am on OS X 10.7.5 (current) and Firefox 17.0.1 (current)

    I have no clue why sites keep telling me to upgrade. For example, on Yahoo I get a bar on the bottom asking me to upgrade. It happens on other sites too but I don't recall off the top of my head.

    Some sites I can't even do certain things and have to switch to Safari. I'm sure Apple would prefer that, but Firefox has always been good til recently.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks.

  • El Cid Marina Hotel in Mazatlan, anyone been here?

    We are going here in March and would like input from anyone who has been here recently.

    1) Our room is booked through our timeshare, but I am wondering if they have an all inclusive option available and can I pick the days I want to do it?

    2) How bad is the 'chair saving' game at this hotel?

    3) Do they have a DJ that cranks tunes all day, or is it (hopefully) a nice quiet and relaxing pool area?

    4) We love to venture off property and dine out; any good restaurant recommendations?

    THANKS! (Gracias!)

  • Allergic reaction to penicillin: Still have rashes after 3 weeks?

    I broke out with rashes after taking penicillin so I stopped taking it. But that was three weeks ago now and I still have rashes all over. They are a little better but not much. My doctor says they will go away sooner or later. I have been taking Zyrtec daily. Do I need to switch to something else? Is this normal? Anyone with medical credentials out there? Thanks!

  • We are looking for a good timeshare hotel in Puerto Vallarta?

    We are looking for next year. Have been to PV before and want to avoid all inclusive. We can't stand the food on AI anymore and PV has the best food in Mexico anyways! We are new RCI members and would like suggestions. It seems like most exchanges are AI. We are not trying to be cheap, but it just doesn't pay for us to go AI anymore.

  • How do I stop thinking about a girl from a long time ago?

    I really wish I could get this girl out of my mind and get on with life. The relationship we had was over with half a lifetime ago but I still think of her on a daily basis.

    Would someone with some real training in this realm let me know what I need to do to let go... once and for all?

    I loved her and I'll never forget her, but it didn't work out and that's that. Why can't I just let her become a fleeting memory?
