  • Is it possible to be diabetic without the usual symptoms?

    Okay, I know I have to see a doctor, I am not trying to avoid that thru answers from you. I was told about 5 years ago that I had low sugar, and I had horrible symptoms with that. Every time I ate I got this hideous sleepy, dopey feeling and I slurred terribly. It went away about 8 months later. Now, the past year my eyes are acting funny. Light bothers me and I see black veins when I first open my eyes in the morning just for a split second and they are not floaters, as I know what floaters are cause I do wear glasses and have all my life for nearsightedness. Sometimes I see a light flash in my peripheral vision in my right eye. I don't drink a lot out of thirst nor do I urinate a lot. I do notice recently that if I don't eat like every 4 hours sometimes I get these horrible shakes and my heart flutters till I do eat and when it gets really bad I crave sugar. I have a glucose meter that I purchased years ago just to keep an eye on my sugar and haven't used it for a few years. I ate 2 candy bars and after about an hour I started getting sleepy, not that dopey feeling i mentioned but dosing off. So, I decided to take my sugar count and it was 199. I have always like to eat sweets at night and I know I have to see a doctor, but just wondering if anyone has been diagnosed with diabetes and had no symptoms like excessive thirst and urinating.

    Thank you.

  • WHY DOES YAHOO! ANSWERS DO THIS?

    I have had several question deleted and I can't find out why they did it. I think maybe because there were no answers, but I'm not totally sure of that. Maybe there were no answers because they deleted it too soon. I have read and re-read the guidelines (which is no easy task) and I don't see what I did wrong -- if anything. So, if anyone can tell me why they did that to me I'd be so happy.

    Thanks ahead of time :-)

  • Can You Name any Greatest Rap/Hip-Hop songs/artist from the mid-1980's?

    I would be so thankful if anyone can name off as many great rap/hip-hop songs from the 1980's. The ones that were awesome in the disco's for dancing to. Like when I first heard salt-n-pep-pa do 'Push It' -- Oh man that was better than sex! I loved all them songs, just never knew who did them or even the names of the songs. Another good one was "Doin The Dog?" (you know where he says "chase the cat"). Too busy being young, partying and having fun back then.

    I just signed up for Rhapsody and I guess I need to know the name of the song? If you know an easier way that I can find songs from the past without having to pay for each and everyone I listen to, that would be great too. Like icing on the cake.

    Thanks everyone ahead of time -- You are all great people for helping others with their problems, fears, and dilemmas. I hope that I have help a few of you along the way. God bless you all :-)

  • Why intercourse has been excruciating ever since she miscarried 15 years ago?

    First of all this not a question of anyones morals. We are all human and we all make mistakes. I only share the information below because it is relevent to the question. Thank you.

    My friend has not had sex in over 10 years because she says it's absolutely excruciating ever since she had a miscarriage 15 years ago. She is no Prude! This is not in her head. Here is why. First of all she had a total of 3 abortions in her life. At the age of 16, 17 & again at 31. She regrets her past as she was a practicing drug addict and an escort with a service. She says a month after her miscarriage she went back to "work" and the client happened to be well endowed. She said they couldn't even begin as he felt pain as well. He said it was like something was blocking the entrance. She figured it was just too soon. So, she waited another month or so and the same thing happened. Months turned into years and she stopped dating, even after she got sober. She went to her gynecology check ups and she said she nearly passed out when the doctor inserted the tool for the test. She said she was never bothered by pap tests before. She had to have several a year some years being in and out of treatment centers, jail, etc... So, that is why I know this is physical. However, she has gone to probably 8-10 doctors in the beginning of the problem and they found nothing wrong with her. So just wondering if anyone can tell me anything at all.

    How does a normal woman go from having sex with many many men and never being bothered with anything, size, etc.... to nearly passing out from a tiny probe for a pap smear. What could be wrong?

  • When will the World end 12/21/12 or 12/12/2102?

    They know it's wrong, but they can't make any money if they leave it the way it is. Which is December 12, 2102...... And, it's not going to end than either. Just the end of a calendar from an old tribe that was years ahead of their time.

    For those who can remember 1984, 1986, 1989, 1992, 1999, 2000.... These were all dates that the world as we know it was going to cease and desist. And, there were hundreds of books, movies, tv/radio talk-shows, pamphlets, etc... that were made (to make money) to tell us how it was going to happen, and what we could do in the mean time.

  • Big Red Ball in the Sky 1978 to 1980? Ohio area?

    A big red ball in the late 70's over Cleveland, Ohio?

    It was between 1978-1980 in Parma, Ohio. I was looking out the window at the sky. It was maybe early spring or late fall at about 6 or 7 pm. I saw this big red ball go straight up from nowhere as if it came up from the ground. I yelled for my mom. She saw it through a different window and then came to the patio door with me to watch it. Looking at it, it almost seemed like looking at a red sun at night. It was probably a few miles away from us and maybe only a mile or so up in the air. All together it probably sat in the air for maybe 2 minutes, and than it came straight down and it was gone.

    RECAP: It went straight up into the sky, sat there for a couple of minutes, and than went straight down and was gone.

    My Mother knew the mayor of the city at the time and asked him if he had heard of anything about this big red ball. He did not hear of any callers regarding this, nor could he explain what it could have been.

    If anyone saw this same thing in Ohio at the same time please explain your version. If anyone knows what it could have been please share your knowledge. Thanks :o]

  • My new break job on a 2002 Ford Windstar is howling, Help!?

    May 17, 2008 I had a simple front & back break job done. I started to hear a tiny grinding noise and soon after took it to my mechanic who is usually good and he did a simple front and rear break job. He said that the calipers were in good shape so he didn't replace them. The same day I picked up the car and paid for it I heard this howling noise everytime I would apply the breaks, which mostly happens in the 1st few minutes of driving. Then several times I hear that same howling noise except it gets really loud and my breaks lose pressure for a split second (pedal goes closer to the floor) and the break light comes on. Once the car is turned back on the break light is off and the breaks are good again except for that howling noise. My mechanic has looked at it 6 times now and he even replaced one of the calipers that he origionally said was good. If you have any ideas of what this could be from please let me know. Thank you in advance.

  • I want to start a commune in my house in Parma, Ohio. Anyone interested please comment.?

    This would be for people wanting all the comforts the wealthy have, yet would never be able to achieve this on their own. The members of the house would be respected and treat other members with respect. Eventually growing as a family and love one another, yet not 'free-love' as in the sterio typed hippie communes of the so called 60's. Yet, this commune would not be as strict as other communes. We would all have chores as such and work together for the common good of the 'House' resulting in the good for all. If anyone is interested in becoming a partner with me for this idea. Let me know by commenting first. Thanks.

  • My gum is loose and it hurts, help!?

    My gum on only one of my bottom teeth on my left side is hurting and it's loose. It has been like this for about a month. The weirdest thing is that the gum is loose. I can actually take my finger and pull the gum down. Yikes! But it hurts to do so. Is this some kind of periodontal disease beginning. Thanks!
