I recently went on vacation for over a month in northern california. on my way back after being on the bus for 19 hours I started coughing and it hasn’t stopped for a few days. I have some theories of whats wrong and wanted some of your opinions

1. the change in atmosphere might just be messing with my body
2. The extremely long bus ride could have just worn down my bodys immunity
3. I got my tongue pierced a month ago and it might still be healing

what are your thoughts on this?
I started coughing out some gunk yesterday for a bit but now nothing. my piercing isn’t infected but I figured maybe it’s part of the healing process. But it’s just a cough! nothing else is wrong which is why I’m so confused. usually I just get sick or get a sore throat.

My fiance and I are getting married August 28. We are looking to go on our honeymoon either a couple days after that, or we can depart later, up to two weeks after our wedding.

We are looking to go on vacation for 6 or 7 days. We like to snorkel, dive, hike, swim, etc. Nightlife is fine, but what we really want are fun recreational things to do. Also a decent hotel, like the Westin, Hyatt, etc. I looked on Expedia, etc. and we can find some nice places in Cancun for less than 0/person including flight and stay at a Hyatt. This sounds good to me. But the flight is 11 hours long from Sacramento, California to Cancun. I would like a shorter flight if possible. So maybe somewhere closer to California, but still in Mexico. Does anybody have a recommendation on which city to go to, where to stay, and somewhere that doesn’t take 10 or 11 hours to fly to from Northern California, and that is not too expensive.

Thank you.

My fiance and I are getting married in April 2011, and we are planning to leave on our honeymoon the 2nd week in May. We are taking off for a couple weeks and going on a Road Trip! We live in South East Michigan and plan on driving into Northern California, driving South on the Pacific Coast Highway until L.A. From there we will spend a few days in Vegas and then Head back Home. We don’t necessarily plan on stopping everywhere for a couple days…we mainly want to drive South on the PCH for the views…I hear the are incredible. I would like our main stays to be a couple days each on a couple beach cities and a couple days in Vegas. The rest we will just be stopping, sight seeing, etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions for us??? Places we just HAVE to see, restaurants along the way we HAVE to try??? I really appreciate any input.

Thanks ( :

I live in Northern California where it is very hot in the summer but we also get snow in the winter. I have 2 dogs and we want as much privacy as possible. We are looking for as long term as possible but don’t want to spend a TON! We were looking at cedar, incense cedar or maybe something else…not redwood really.

Hello, my name is Tim, I’m 16, and I live in northern California. Summer vacation has just started for me. I have problems with my mental state though I can be happy, and I’m usually nice to others but I can be really bipolar and have a bad temper at times, but I don’t do anything bad really.

I’m wondering, do you think a teenager who may have some problems like out of touch of reality and whatnot would be happier with a job? I’m sure most of you know that CA’s economy sucks and is hard to find a job, but I’ll try to find one, and my dad may help me find one in a chemical plant he works at.

I wouldn’t have too much of a problem with socializing with others in job though I can be a little slow and may stutter, but that’s it. I think having a job may build my confidence and may make more of a purpose for me rather than a weird kid who just sits on his computer. People say I’m talented and funny but I don’t know if that’ll help with the job.

I live in Portland Oregon and my mom wants to spend no more then 8 hours driving to our summer vacation. I would like to get sun this summer as in go to So Cal but obviously that’s out of the question. She wants to go to some place up by Seattle in a rain forest, which would be cool only there is NOTHING there!! Im looking for some sunny places in Northern California that would accommodate both my mother and myself’s requirements. I want a beach with sun and shopping and she wants a short car ride. We have driven to Reno NV in a day and I wouldn’t mind doing that again. She would want to do this in a weekend. That means leaving either thursday night after work or early friday morning, and leaving either monday or sunday afternoon.

here is our story…about 2 1/2 months ago my daughter started waking up after naps and in the middle of the night screaming and inconsolable for more then an hour. we took her to the Dr and they checked her ears and said she had an ear infection, gave her antibiotics and sent us home. about a month after that she began getting sick again when we were on vacation in California. we thought it was just from the change in environment from Florida to northern California and maybe some new allergies were starting. after a week and 2 days and us arriving back home she was still ill, and getting worse, low grade fevers and still waking up crying, again we went back to the DR. the and she had a really bad double ear infection and a cold, this time amoxicilin for antibiotics for 10 days. 7 days finished of drugs, and she was no better, now she is waking every night screaming and crying and not able to calm her for more then an hour. this time i call the on call DR in the middle of the night, they say it doesn’t sound like an emergency, but to take her in the next day during business hours. so again we go back, they recheck her ears and one is healed the other is almost healed, no answers for in the middle of the night screaming. OK, just so everyone knows my daughter has slept through the night since she was 3 months old!! and up until a few months ago now she was sleeping 10-12 hours a night, and was a happy girl! now after that screaming continues for another week in the night, we call the on call again, and they basically tell us the same thing, take her to our pediatrician in the morning. so we call and make an appt, and take her in they checked her blood work, white cell count is fine, no anemia, no clue!!! we go back again, in another week, and they tell us that they think it may be pin worms, and give her script for meds to rid her of pin worms. two days later she seems to be better, so we go about our week. then tonight after waking from a nap the screaming starts all over again, in the fetal position, tight stomach, inconsolable for more then an hour, won’t eat, screaming to the point of deafening us because she wants to be held and is clutching us so tight like her life depends on it. and if we are not holding her she is curled up on the floor in a ball screaming. after about an hour and a half she is finally calm again, and is now eating jello. BTW no fever or vomiting or diarrhea. but she did have all that a week ago. i am concerned cause i do have a 3 month old in the house, and i pray whatever it is isn’t contagious! please if anyone has answers, or alternatives i can take to my Dr to check for please help us…sincerely, mother in desperation to help her little girl!
we asked about the night terrors to our pediatrician cause i thought the same thing, and he said it should be accompanied by low grade fevers, vomiting or diarrhea.
i forgot to mention i think, cause i am at such a loss, her stomach is hard as a rock during all this even if she isn’t screaming it does not un-tense for an hour, and she is still having 1 -2 BM’s per day.
