  • Does melanoma itch during sleep?

    I'm super paranoid about cancer as it runs in my family. I've smoked cigarettes for 7 years. For the past 3 weeks I've noticed a dark beige bump on my leg. On the lower halve of my calf. It's the size of half a small pea. But it itches only when I'm like almost asleep. I know this because of the subconscious state I'm in when it itches, half asleep I know that I scratch it. & I wake up to see the small spot surrounded with bruises that go away in less than 48 hours. But still the bump remains. My question is, how can I know if this is a type of cancer or not....does melanoma ever itch? Maybe it's just a bad spider bite. In any event-what should I do!?

  • Medical and wisdom teeth?

    Was wondering if i can just walk up to a dentist and schedule a wisdom tooth extraction. But what about insurance!? I have medical in California. I don't mind paying $400bucks a tooth as I'm sure Medical does not cover this procedure. Can I make an appointment today for this week!? All 4 wisdom teeth came completely out. I'm 21 yrs old. It's killing me, it hurts so bad. Always have headaches and pressure and just pain. Since they've come in horizontal instead of vertical. Also I heard that the roots can grow into the jaw if I don't have them removed. Will this surgery to remove them cost more money because of my condition?

  • How can I get revenge?

    My older sister moved here from Argentina because I gave birth to my son and she came to help me. Now she is never here, I'm all alone with the baby an she lies to me about where she is and doesn't come home for 4 days at a time. She obviously doesn't respect me since she's always lying to me. I'm really Dissapointed. I just want to do something to piss her off. I know it sounds bad. But there is nothing else I can do. Help me think of stuff I can do to piss her off! ....OR what do you guys suggest I do?

  • Is this OK to give my 8month old to teethe on?

    I cracked open a big bag of original flavor beef jerky. My little guy can't keep his hands off it! He loves chewing on it. He has 3 teeth. He's a big guy born 10 pounds. He's tried most things I feed him a variety of foods.

    I was just wondering if beef jerky is harmful to them in any way, I know it contains a lot of sodium. In any event, he doesn't swallow it. He just chews on it.

    Thanks!

  • Is there such thing as physiological bulimia?

    This is a serious question.

    I love food, but I don't binge eat. I don't have appearance issues, I love my body the way it is. But at least 4 times a week for the past 5 years whenever I eat sometimes, my body just wants to throw up.

    Is bulimia a choice? Does it happen automatic? Maybe I just have a weak stomach?

    I don't have medica insurance but this really concerns me...

    Any useful information will be appreciated thank you

  • Surrogacy and birth defects?

    This is a SCIENCE question.

    I'm broke and I want to help people and I know people really want babies and I'm just curious about surrogacy, I'm clean, no drugs or anything and have my own baby. Was wondering if I carried someone else's baby for them,

    if the baby got birth defects would it be genetic of the baby's parents? Or Would it be my fault somehow?

  • Help!!! Frozen breast milk...?

    So I have pumped about 30 ounces in the past week. And I stored it all in 3 different breast milk baggies but I heard that I should only freeze in portions that the baby would eat. Would the breast milk still be good if I defrosted it all and re-sorted it in many baggies? It's only been a week. And some a couple days ago. Would the nutrients be lost?

  • What does thrush in babies mouth smell like?

    (TMI) my right nipple is always cracked and hurting when I breast feed my 2 month old baby boy and only when I feed my son on this nipple is when I smell a strange sour smell from his mouth...I don't see any signs of thrush in his mouth but maybe thrush has a strange smell too? What could this be? I never smell it from when he nurses on the other nipple.

    Also, is soaking nipples in vinegar/water mix a good idea?
