  • Would Lasix help the edema caused by purging?

    I was really bad today and purged 4 times and now my face, stomach, and legs are swollen. It's really embarrassing and I know I need help. I don't want to do this anymore. I hate it I do, so please no lectures bc I KNOW! Only answers to my question please. So would a Lasix (diuretic) help with the swelling caused by purging and is it safe as long as I only take 1 and drink lots of water? I'm thinking it would be a really good thing to flush out my system and help me detox which I hope will help with my urges to binge.

  • Do you think it's fair for a University to expel an underweight student when there are so many obese students?

    I have been struggling with disordered eating habits and excessive exercise compulsions for a few years now and about a year ago I decided that I needed to get help so I started seeing a counselor at my University and before I knew it I was being forced to meet with a different counselor, a nutritionist, and a medical doctor every week. Those were 3 separate appointments a week. Also my parents were called and I had to sign a contract agreeing to eat certain meals, stop exercising, and to attend my appointments or I would not be allowed to attend my University anymore until I went to an inpatient clinic for my eating disorder. I have scholarships that I cannot afford to lose, not to mention the embarrassment over everyone finding out that I was no longer at school because I was in an eating disorder clinic. So somehow I found enough motivation to maintain the minimum to keep myself in school, and right before the last semester ended I canceled all of my appointments and do not plan on going back to any of them because I do not feel that they were helpful and I am very angry. The reason they want to to gain weight is because I am what they call, "a walking liability" to the university, because my eating disorder can kill me or make me very sick. I know this and it scares me! But what angers me is there are morbidly obese students on my campus and no one is making them eat better or exercise. They are at even greater risks for health problems and death then I am. It feels so unfair that I had to go through so much the past 9 months! I do want help, but I cannot go back to doctors and therapist who only see me as a liability.

  • Where can I buy this flamingo memo board?

    In case the link doesn't work it is a fabric memo board in the shape of a flamingo, I tried to find it everywhere online and I got outbid at the last moment on ebay. I asked the seller where she got it and she said it was a gift and did not know where it came from. If you know where to get one or a website I could order it from I would greatly appreciate it!

  • About how much would it cost to take a train from SC to Lousiana?

    I want to go to Lousina during the spring to visit my aunt and I think taking a train would be cheaper then driving bc of the high fuel costs, but I can not find any information about train fares on the internet. If anyone who takes a train frequently could give me an estimate or find any good internet resources that would be greatly appreciated.

  • How do you melt a condom?

    This is a serious question I want to melt them for an art project, so far I have tried pressing a curling iron to them and the air from a hair dryer. Oh and also the tip of a hot glue gun did not melt them either.

  • birthcontrol for PMS?

    I have really bad periods that are super heavy and I am constantly bleeding through tampons and heavy pads onto my clothes. I also have really bad acne breakouts and anger outbreaks that I really cannot control so am thinking about talking to my doctor about getting on birthcontrol to help me. Does anyoen have any experience where birthcontrol helped them with some of the same problems? I am also considering trying proactive, bc right now I am on prescription tazorac and it is not helping. So any advice about proactive would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks
