Avatar n tn A WINDOW AC unit and a dorm fridge has made me sick for almost a year. Was in that small room for 2 months before I figured it out. Do not trust poison control. It does not clear out if you open the windows and remove items that leaked! turmeric may help inflammation. herbal teas helped my anxiety that it caused.
Avatar n tn In any case, I recently bought a compact refrigerator and set it up in the dorm, but I have noticed a chemical smell in the room since I have set it up. I've read that new refrigerators may have a chemical smell due to out-gassing plastic, so I was wondering if this was the source for the chemical smell, or whether this is unusual and if continual exposure to this is harmful in any way. Thanks.
Avatar m tn I have of yet only this week thought that my friends are talking behind my back but they are not. I trust them completely when im with them but by myself i believe that they hate me and make fun of me. This along with many girl related issues with roommates has made me completely depressed and I have been for most of my life unhappy but now im in college i have great things and great friends but I do not have friends outside of my dorm room because I don't like to leave.
Avatar n tn I have breathing difficulties once in a week and most of the breathing difficulties appear at night. Unable to lie flat and breathe. So I will sleep by sitting straight. sometimes my neck aches like never before. And the breathing difficulty increases if I have a heavy meal. I also occasionally feel that the ribcage is touching my heart, thereby causing a crushing feeling of the heart. I think because of the weight(75 kgs), my ribcage has been lowered, thus making contact with the heart etc.
Avatar f tn Mine was kinda in/out patient. I stayed @ the Pavillion (kinda like a dorm room area in a wing of the Hospital) over night. They say you need to lay flat for several hours in order for it to not start to bleed. We left the next day. The ride was a little uncomfortable, but after a good nights sleep, all was good.
Avatar m tn Today, I went to the restroom next to my dorm room to bowel move or take a dump. During this time I noticed a long pubic hair on the rim of the toilet, which touched the opening or the meatus of my penis. After I saw this, I got up flushed the toilet and went to go wash my penis and I cleaned off the toilet rim. My question is do I have to worry about getting some HIV or any STD's?
Avatar n tn Last year I lived in a dorm, and as the other person said, I told my RA and roommate exactly how to give me glucagon shots and waht to do if there was ever a problem. I would suggest maybe typing a list of protocol to have in his room in the event of a problem so that anyone can help in an emergency, plus it will give you some peace of mind.
Avatar f tn When the former happened, I was asleep and I felt like somebody hitting my head from behind although there was definitely nobody in the room, whereas for the latter I smelled the scent of lavender out of nowhere in my room when I was playing SimCity 4 in the middle of the night, followed by a sound of clicking door handle even though there was nobody outside.
Avatar m tn My 15 year old son cut himself shaving in the dorm . It's his first time shaving ever and the idiot used a (used) razor blade that he found in the dorms toilette. Please help what should we do?
Avatar f tn Now Im trying to work out and burn at least 300 calories a day. I am not in shape at all (a 10 minute brisk walk wears me out) and was wondeeing if anyone had workout ideas for me??
Avatar f tn I worked out 4-56 times a week and now I can barely get 3 workouts in. I even made a schedule for a specific pregnancy workout I found on pinterest and walking and elliptical. We just have to listen to our bodies I guess! I felt Bette when I went to the doctor today because they told me to work out 3 maybe 4 days a week and only for a maximum 20 min..
Avatar f tn I'm not a fan of working out, and in reality who is... But since I just turned 18 I absolutely need to lose weight! I'm about to go to college and I don't want to weigh 263lbs! Anyway it is really embarrassing to go to a gym and my family gives me no support so I never do it at home. Where should I workout?? Should I just tough trough it and get a gym membership? The problem is there has to be a gym that is open at 11 since that would be my only time to workout. What should I do?
Avatar n tn I also told someone else, a great thigh exercise is also a cardio exercise, which is bicycling. Do it a lot especially on hills and you'll get strong thighs.
Avatar f tn Can anyone recommend a good workout plan? My last pregnancy I gained 72 lbs and I am not wanting to do that again. Just wanting and healthy routine to help manage my weight so I don't go overboard again.
Avatar f tn Is there a work out that burns allot of calories...something thats not intense.
Avatar f tn t wait! Just start doing some squats and going for walks. If you can hold a conversation during your exercise you are fine.
Avatar f tn Prenatal yoga is great for strengthening all the muscles you're gonna use during labour and for focusing on your breathing. I've been swimming a lot during my pregnancy as it feels so nice to exercise without feeling the weight of your belly. Walking as often as possible is also good. These are the only exercises I did but depends on your ability and fitness level. I had breathlessness throughout my preg so anything else was too much much me.
Avatar m tn Hi, I have a questionable situation that I would like to sort out before I go nuts! A year ago, Febuary 2009, I got cut on my hand in my dorm room shower and briefly washed it with water but didn't put a bandage on. I didn't put much thought into it and walked to class (running late). Once in class I realized I had dried blood on my hands. I don't know if this was my blood or if it was somebody else's that I might have accidentally touched (doorknobs, doors, desks, and chairs).
1584259 tn?1296718935 I hate how I can't sleep alone or in my dorm, I don't have a roommate, but it's because i don't want one. I'm not a sociable person, but I want friends. I'm so scared of this room, I even cry out of the blue! I get little panic attacks and it drives me insane, which leads me to more crying. I don't know what to do!!!!
Avatar n tn Hi, I have blood in my saliva after intense workouts. It happened 3 or 4 times in last two weeks. I never had this before. It happens when I clear my throat and spit in the shower after working out. It's a small amount of blood and it's regular red color. If I continue spitting, on second or third time there is no more blood. It I cough or clear my throat again, there will be some more blood again. Then it comletely stops. This is the only time it happens.
Avatar f tn Hi there, I've just started my period yesterday and I'm embarrassed to say this but it smells so bad. My previous periods also kind of smelled but very subtle. This time though, the smell is so bad and intense that I feel like it can seep through my clothes. I don't know how to describe it but it's not a rotten flesh smell or something. It smells knid of metallic and sour. I've searched the questions and read something about old tampon left inside.
Avatar n tn I live in a dorm where I share 2 toilets with about 10 other girls. Yesterday I went to urinate and wiped myself with a ball of toilet paper; I then used that ball to wipe a few stray drops of my urine from the seat. Before I dropped it into the toilet I noticed that I must have started my period, as there was a little blood on the wiper. Without thinking, I dabbed at myself again using the same ball of toilet paper.
Avatar f tn I just brushed it off thinking it was nothing, but then I suddenly felt my body spasm/jerk before going to bed in my dorm room. Shrugged it off. But then my left calf started twitching and cramping like crazy, that was when I began to fear that I might have ALS. I went to the college health center and they check my reflexes with basic strength. They told me I was fine, but then I had trouble swallowing and I ended up panicking again to a point I visited my Doctor's.
