Has anyone had a lump in the breast just under the nipple area? I had one a couple of years ago, but the specialist said it was just a hardening milk duct and would go away. It never went away, but got softer to the point where it was hardly noticeable. Now it's back. I just had a partial hysterectomy so I'm wondering if it's hormonal. Its the same lump, same spot, only bigger and more evenly round than before. I don't know if I should worry. I can't get in to see the doctor for another five weeks!

My husband mentioned a few days ago that his inner thigh was sore, as if he pulled a muscle. The next morning that area was swolen, and he assumed it was because our three year old kicked him there the day before. When he showed it to me, it looked more like a lump. It was hard with no bruising at all, and he said it was still sore. It's not small like a pimple, but large like half a banana. Anyone know what it could be? He's stubborn and will not go to a doctor.

All of this H1N1 hysteria seems to be overdone, but there is a school not too far from me who just had a fairly large swine flu break out. Here I am feeling sicker than sick, and I know I have a fever. I haven't had a fever in years! I have flu symptoms that started last night, but no puking or anything. How is someone supposed to tell if they might have this swine flu or not?

Last night I was jogging a few steps to cross the driveway and I landed on my ankle wrong, causig some severe pain for about a minute. It seemed to go right away as soon as I went from jogging to walking. I had to walk slowly, but other than that, I was just fine. I went inside and went to bed. I woke up this morning with the most severe pain in my upper thigh of that same leg. The pain is so severe that I can barely put enough weight on it to walk and if I try to kneel and totally bend my leg, it just can't happen. It hurts too much. Could this have something to do with the little ankle twisting? Would it be a waste of time to go to the doctor? Should I just take some ibuprofen and wait? It really FRIGGEN hurts!

First of all, my husband got a vasectomy in September. Last week he had his sperm tested and there was a zero sperm count. In November I had a miscariage. I wasn't that far along, maybe two or three months. It was bad enough, though. Since then I've had troubles with ovarian cysts. I know I had one last month, and that could cause the late period. However, I honestly cannot remember when I had a period last. I am thinking it was sometime before Christmas. I took one of those cheapie dollar store tests, but it came out negative. My belly is still big from the last (very short) pregnancy that I went through. I am so scared that if I AM pregnant, people will think I cheated on my husband of eight years. That would be horrifyingly humiliating! I know the smarter people we know will know that he must have had a small sperm count at conception, but there are those few people who will be convinced that I cheated! My goodness, that is awful to think about....especially since I live in sich a rediculously small town! My obgyn isn't in today, so I couldn't make an appointment for a blood test to see if I really am pregnant or not. Sometimes I wish our eyes changed color when pregnant or something so we wouldn't have to sit back and wonder. If I had the car today I would go to the store and get a test right now, and not a dollar store test! Not knowing for sure if I am pregnant or not is just as bad as not knowing if I won the big lottery or not, but being 99% sure. It's that 1% that makes me want to pull my hair out! Oh my goodness, if I am pregnant, how would I tell people?!?

Is there any place in Disney World where we can see dolphins and such? We don't want to go to Sea World and would rather spend all our time and attention in one place. But, our little girl really wants to feed a dolphin. Is there any place inside Disney where we can see a whale and dolphin? We are already going to the Animal Kingdom. I'm sure we'll love that. We've never even been to Florida before!

We are going to Disney and Sea World from February 25 to March 3. We're flying from Northern Maine, so we are used to the temperatures being in the single digits. What should we expect for temps? I need to know how to pack.

I had a Huge ovarian cyst rupture last month. Holy cow, was that intense! I'm feeling all the pain again right now. Instead of having a period (which I was due a few days ago), I had clear discharge. I wonder if I should get it checked out. I've never had that symptom before. Also, last month and right now I have this severe headache that's keeping me from being able to do just about anything. The pain's into my neck and everything. Why would an ovarian cyst cause a headache?

I'm going to file through e-file tonight and I am dying to get my return! How long does it take to get the return back when it's filed that way?

My 27 year old niece passed away so suddenly beside her young children last week. She had been suffering with heart problems, and was seeing a doctor for it. However, her body was taken away for an autopsy to be done. It's been a week and two days, and we haven't heard a thing from the autopsy results. If it was her heart, wouldn't they know something like that right away? Her blood work came back clean, and then they decided to send her body away to be investigated. So if it wasn't something in her blood and they didn't see it by looking at her heart and brain, what else could it be?

I am hoping to hear what you think. Four months ago I was two weeks late. Took a test, got a positive. Two weeks later I had a period. I assumed the test was wrong. The period was twice as long. It was severly painful! I had super cramps and sharp pains and everything. Since then, my periods are on time, but only spotting for less than a day. I gained ten pounds (all in my belly), have acne, losing my hair, super moody, and things like that. I never did re-test, but assumed the first test was wrong. My husband has had a vasectomy. It's been four months and my body still feels so off. I just don't feel right. Could I be pregnant? Could I be feeling the effects of a miscarriage? I am going to call the doctor in the morning, as I wanted to see if it would go away on it's own and it has not. I am just wanting to discuss it now.

I'm about a week past due for my monthly "visitor". My husband had a vasectomy almost two months ago. Being late, I took a pregnancy test yesterday. It was positive! Today I thought it had to be false because I started my "monthly". Now I'm wondering because it was more like a one time light spotting. Does it sound like I could be pregnant?

My period is like clockwork - always every 28 days on the dot. Last month, out of the blue, it was about a week and a half early, and only lasted a day - if that. I noticed that lately it has only been lasting a day, but this was even less than that. If anything, it only lasted a few hours! Now here I am 35 days later...and no period. I don't even feel like I'm going to have one. Should I be concerned? I just had my physical and all was well, but I'm beginning to wonder if something serious is going on. Other than having the flu for the past two weeks, my lower back has been killing me on one side. I'm using condoms, so I doubt I'm pregnant. I'm just concerned. Should I be worrying?

Ok before I get any speeches about cats in need of homes, here's the story. We live deep into the country and there is only one shelter. The shelter charges 60.00 for a kitten. People out here have very little money and have big barns full of animals. They need barn cats to take care of the rodents and many of them! My cat has had two litters in the past. She had 2 the first time, and 4 the second time. All but two babies found homes and were well taken care of. We kept the remaining two babies and got them spayed. Meanwhile Mommy had another litter. She was very small and I assumed she wasn't very far along. This morning she gave birth to one lonely good size healthy baby. Both mother and baby are healthy. After a litter of two, then four, I was expecting way more than one! But they're healthy and Mommys belly feels squooshy, as if there aren't any more babies in there. Is this normal?

My hen has had something bloody hanging from her butt for days now, and I have no idea what it is. Three days ago it looked like some sort of sac, like you see when a cat gives birth to a kitten. It was bleeding and everything. The next day it didn't look so bad, but was still there. The hen is acting like nothing's wrong. Now it's drying up and turning black and she keeps trying to push it out, but is still alive and well. Has anyone ever heard of this happening? What should I do?

My husband and I had protected sex, but the codom fell off. The next day I started my period. Here I am 20 days later and I'm puking every night. I NEVER puke! I shouldn't worry that it's a pregnancy symptom, should I?

I thought I could go to McMurray Hatchery, but it looks like nothing that I want is available online! I just want to purchse hens. Any ideas of where I can buy hens online, weather they're day old chicks or not?

At the end I noticed that the episode was in memory of someone. Did anyone catch that name?

Ok, according to the information in the IRS site, we were supposed to have our stimulus money deposited by this coming Friday. Then the President said the money was being released on Monday. We were supposed to be with the first group according to the last two digits of my husbands SS#. We didn't get a thing! Anyone else feel as screwed as I do?

I have a scooter here and I'm interested in selling it. Is there an online guide that'll help me calculate the value?
