I am a 27 year old female from Louisiana. I love the diverse culture here in New Orleans. I have my BS degree in Psychology and have a respectable 9-5 job as a Regional HR Manager for a Healthcare company of over 150 employees. I also have 9 tattoos and love maintaining my freak flag under my 9-5 dress. It is important to me to maintain my individuality while still functioning in society in an arena that will make a difference in people's lives.
Ceftin and sulfa allergies?
I found out several years ago by my Primary care dr that I am allergic to sulfa based drugs. I broke out in hives down the insides of both legs after being put on a common antibiotic. Since then, I have always listed sulfa as an allergy on all medical records.
I got a sinus infection last week, and my ENT prescribed me ceftin. I took it for 4-5 days, and began experiencing SEVERE pain in my vaginal area. Specifically when i wipe or even just touch it. I would wash with clean warm water, and a fragrance free soap and stopped taking the antibiotic. 2 days later, and the pain was much WORSE this morning! To the point, even warm water touching it was painful. However, Again, I washed, and put on dry cotton clothes.
After doing a bit of research it seems Ceftin (the antibiotic prescribed) has a sulfate base? I can't help but feel this is the culprit, and that it is an allergic reaction. I know antibiotics can commonly give yeast infections, but this is not what it is. There is no discharge. Just pain. I'm not sure what to do now other than wait it out, and if indeed it could be an allergic reaction.
Allergies7 years agoCar Shows for dummies... :)?
I have a date with a guy next weekend. He is into car shows and wants to take me to one. Only problem, I've never been. Im not a girly-girl, I like the look of certain classic cars, but dont know much else. What should I expect? Do we just go to look at the cars? Am I going to look stupid not knowing anything about engines, makes, years, etc??

I am on level 4 of Halo 3. I've beaten the 1st two parts, killed the brutes, taken the ghost, brought down the scarib and got ontop/inside. When I get on it the general keeps saying "Find the weak spot, take it out at the power core, you'll know it when you see it". Where in hell do I shoot it??? I've thrown grenades all over that beast and cant figure out how to kill it to finish the damn level.

9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoShould I and how would I?
I'm a 24 year old virgin. Yes, by choice. No, I'm not ugly. No, it's not a religious thing. It's been a moral choice to not be a "friend w/benefits" or "one night stand" and most of the guys I have dated, I wanted to wait to make sure our relationships were more than just sex (but none of my relationships made it over 6 months, and most likely for that reason at least for one of them)
Anyway, I am seriously considering just meeting some random good looking guy, and sleeping w/him. Just to get the whole mountain out of the way.Then a friend suggested I sell my virginity on ebay. But I dont think that is legal? What do you guys think about all this? And do you know if it is legal? :)
14 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoI think I'm bi?
I'm 25. I'm not a kid. I should know what my freakin sexuality is. But I'm so confused. I've had boyfriends, but for the last 3 years or so, I've been thinking about being with women more and more. This is a big problem for me b/c my parents, my family, and most of my friends are big time against homosexuality in any way. I know this should'nt dictate who I see, but I dont want to risk losing all my family and friends over something I am not sure about. But I also dont want to meet a girl, and have her feel like I am hiding our relationship b/c I am ashamed. I dont know what to do.
11 AnswersLesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender1 decade agoi am going to tell him we are just friend...what is the best way?
We have been friends for years. He told me he is interested. I told him i am not. He still wants to discuss it. How do i not be mean, but still get the point across that I miss our friendship the way it was?
3 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agodoes he like me? will it get serious, or is he just playin?
We met through a friend. He called me and asked me out. We had a great time. He was a gentleman, and it ended it a goodnight kiss. Called me again later, went out again the next week. This time it ended with a lil bit more than a kiss, but no sex. Then he doesnt call me for 2 weeks. Im thinkin he doesnt like me cuz i havent slept with him yet (and told him Im not going to for a while). Yet he calls me last night, "hello beautiful, i miss you, wish i was there, etc". Is he just horny? Even though he knows Im not going to sleep with him? Would you still want to go out with a girl you have a blast with? It's only been 2 dates, but if he liked me wouldnt he have called sooner than 2 weeks apart? Should I tell him that I am into him and would like to see him more, or is that forward? Am i over analyzing this? :) Just trying to make heads or tails and not look stupid. Guys, you advice is appreciated.
