Would you give your leftover prescription medication to someone else who you think might need it too?

My boyfriend has suffered from eczema since I met him. Its not terrible but its doesn't seem like what he is using is helping. He has been to 2 different dermatologists and all they do is prescribe him different ointments that have not helped. About a month ago, I went to the doctor (for something different) and I asked her about some flaky skin I had in the sole of my feet. She said it was localized eczema and prescribed me some triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% and my foot healed completely. When I went to buy it, I got the prescribed 2, 15g of ointment. I only used 1. I am thinking about giving the other one to my boyfriend. He said he is willing to use it, but I don't know if its a good idea. I think he is almost ready to try anything to fix his skin. What would you do? Would you give it to him?

HEEELP!!!!!!!!!! What are my chances of getting into Duke University?Will I also be eligible for scholarships?

Earn 2200 on the SAT and you will be competitive. Duke is very generous with financial assistance and almost every undergraduate student who is admitted is offered enough financial aid to be able to attend.

Faint bfp on FRER- is it real?! 19 dpo No symptoms at all!?

I know how you feel; I've had fertility issues myself; though I've a daughter and another on the way now. If you had a positive, it should be positive. It is easier to get a false negative than false positive. ANY line, no matter how faint is a positive. Mine was so faint I could barely see a shadow and didn't know if I was imagining it. What test are you using? Also, I've had friends that have had blood tests that were negative, and they were actually pregnant. But I understand you not wanting to get excited; I am still feeling surreal about my pregnancy because of past problems. Lastly, enjoy Egypt. My daughter's half Egyptian; we visited for a couple months in '08...we both miss it.

Is it just me or are most the Black people in NYC from Caribbean Countries?

I ask because I live in NYC and it seems all the black people I meet are either from a Caribbean country like Jamaica, Trinidad, Haiti, or Barbados or have family that is from a Caribbean country like those listed above. I am wondering if there is any specific reason to this or if this is just coincidence.

Sinuses hurt on Forehead? Help?

My friend has been complaining about having a headache and where her sinuses are on her head like forehead is where the pain is localized and her ears are hurting. I was possibly thinking it was an ear infection but if anyone knows what it is exactly or how to treat it that would be immensely appreciated.

Does anyone know of any great stylists in the dmv area?

I'm an african american sister looking for an excellent stylist. I need someone who is very skilled on dealing with african american natural hair, particularly someone who knows how to braid nice without the tearing and snagging from brushing and combing, without the excessive blowdrying, without the tight pulling and ripping of my scalp. Also someone who knows how to straighten ethnic hair without scorching it with high degrees, using only the highest quality flat irons (ceramic, ionic ,tourmaline) while also letting it become nice and silky like queen latifahs on the 2011 bet awards for those who saw her perform the revolution will not be televised. Finally someone who knows how to trim, and I'm not talking about those who trim and cut off a whole lot of hair..someone who knows how to trim off about 1 to 1.5 inches with no difficulty.and someone who uses the healthiest and best oils, shampoos, creams, heat protectants, oils for black folks hair ex. Sheamoisture, justnaturalskincare the african american hair line, etc.. Basically someone who knows how to treat my hair with EXTREME GENTLENESS and tlc while still getting the job done. And another thing is that I'm muslim and I need to know if ur willing to do my hair in a private room in a location in the dmv area. Thanks. Srry for ALL the requiremnts, but if u are certain that u or others can do this pls let me kno.
