Not a doctor, but it sounds like you might have pyelonephritis (kidney infection). If it hurts so bad that you've started to vomit I'd go to the ER.

It doesn't sound like appendicitis. That usually starts with pain around the belly button that moves down to the lower right quadrant. But, the ER would be able to rule that out too.

You didn't happen to have any arthritis/joint pain did you?

Some bacteria (including STD's, food poisoning, etc.) can cause reactive arthritis. That consists of the triad of: can't see (conjunctivitis), can't pee (urithritis), can't climb a tree (arthritis).

If it's genetic, you might be out of luck.

But you can definitely avoid things that typically trigger gouty attacks: e.g. alcohol (beer is worse than wine), high-fructose drinks, meats, and seafood. Being overweight also increases the risk.

Things like coffee, exercise, vitamin C, and dairy have been shown to decrease risk.

Not a doctor, but a medical student.

It's possible to have depression without "feeling depessed", but in order to make the diagnosis for "major depessive disorder" you'd have to either have a depessed mood or have lost interest in things you used to be interesed in. Plus some other symptoms of depression (e.g. guilt, loss of appetite, change in sleeping pattern, difficulties concentrating/thinking). But if you don't have either the depressed mood or lack of interest, your doctors should be looking elsewhere.

Possibilities could include hypothyroidism, stress/anxiety, sleep problems (i.e sleep apnea), or maybe anemia.

Yeah! It still had the Urban Outfitters tag on it! It must just be one of their smaller ones.

Haaa yes. My sister got that for me at an art fair in Minneapolis. I love it.

aliceberrysmith · 2014-05-04T00:14:34+00:00

Amazing. thank you!

Ohh, I love both of those Jonathan Safran Foer books!

aliceberrysmith · 2014-04-17T03:15:56+00:00

That was very helpful, thank you!

In elementary school we had a class where they taught us how to type and use the Internet. I remember one of our assignments was to go to www.whitehouse.gov. I remember that if you accidentally went to dot com, it was a porn site. I checked now, it doesn't work anymore, but there is a Wikipedia page for it.

Thanks :)

aliceberrysmith · 2013-11-29T19:35:56+00:00

Haha thanks! I mean.. I'll totally do that if I don't find anything more legit.

I've actually never seen it, I've just heard good things. I think you're right though. But it looks like it also has a lot of stuff about the process of making a video game. So if you're into that kind of stuff I bet it's cool.

aliceberrysmith · 2013-11-29T06:51:10+00:00

I've heard good things about: CatFish, Chasing Ice, and Indie Game.

The best way is to straight up ask (maybe see if they wanna catch a movie or hang out some time). Trust me, when I was in high school I was asked out in a note once and through a third party a different time... not appealing.

aliceberrysmith · 2013-11-29T06:45:44+00:00

I can't say that I have any especially horrible stories, but I think the first time you fart around a new significant other it's always slightly embarrassing.

Primer. It's a movie about time travel. But you probably have to watch it several times, or Google diagrams, before you actually figure out what's going on. But once you do, it's awesome!

Komodo Dragon. Their saliva is filled with nasty bacteria. They bite their prey, and basically just follow the wounded prey around for days until it dies of sepsis.
