Hey, Im 16 i moved to Peru last year and since then ive started having really high blood pressure,like 16/10. I went to the doctor he gave me some pills and after 5 months of testing he said it could only be hormones os sumthing. However my family and me believe it is something in the food or maybe in the water, cause when i went back to brasil and stayed there for 2 months i had nothing! can anybody help me and tell me what could be causing my blood pressure to elevate im really desperate!
I have a good physique btw, i do basketball and martial arts, blood pressure is ruining everything tho, and now i have bad headaches too,it could be that food here in Peru is too spicy!

i was watching a documentary on Wings.They said that the top of the wing has high speed (low pressure) whilst the underside has low speed (high pressure) Since pressure always moves from high to low which causes the lift. I understand the concept. What i don’t get is:
-Why do low speeds cause high pressure and low pressure is caused by high speeds.
Pressure= force /area.
so I always thought that a high speed wind would cause more force over the area hence a higher pressure and vise verca for the lower speed.

sorry if I’ve confused you

If you could clear this up i would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

I take Lipitor for high blood pressure and everytime i cough or laugh i start feeling razor sharp pricks in all my extremeties…my fingertips and head and feet…is this okay or worse heart problem…???

Why do we expect a young new player to play an match-winning innings or bowl an excellent spell very early in his career?

Why do we label a newcomer as the next a legend’s name (like Rohit Sharma as the next Sachin, or Pujara as the next Dravid)?

Aren’t we putting too much pressure on young players by speaking high of them? Look at players like Irfan Pathan, Ishant Sharma, RP Singh, and Munaf Patel who has lost their sting after an initial period of burst which gave an impression of a promising career in the making. Who is to be blamed?

The pressure inside a bottle of champagne is 5.4 atm higher than the air pressure outside. The neck of the bottle has an inner radius of 1.0 cm. What is the frictional force on the cork due to the neck of the bottle in Newtons?

A gas consists of 1e+024 molecules, each with mass 3e-026 kg. It is heated to a temperature of 300 K, while the volume is held constant.

If the gas is confined to a vertical tube 5000 m high, what is the ratio of the pressure at the top to the pressure at the bottom?

top pressure/bottom pressure = ??

Note: Remember the Boltzman factor in a gravitational field.

Alright. Here we go, a bit of a long story, and be warned, not so much of a happy ending.

I am 15 years old, and in my school is a girl. Her name is Anna. She’s a bit shy around most people, but around her closer friends she is explosive. I am the same way.

Anyway, I’d always known who she was but I’d never really noticed her before until two months ago, when I decided to host a party with some of my closer friends, for no real reason. My friend brought her over and I hung out with her for a few hours. For some reason it just kind of clicked that night, and it just sort of escalated as I hung out with her more often and we became closer friends. After a while, a few of my friends guessed that I liked her (I AM NOT GAY, but the majority of my friends are girls *although I do have guy friends*) and pressured me to ask her to Homecoming. I did, and, she said yes.

To clarify a few things, she was my first girlfriend (sort of, actual first one lasted 4 hours,) and I was her first also.

Homecoming went perfectly, we slow danced actually quite a bit and I swear my affection for her got worse by the second. After a while we weren’t even dancing and it was just kind of an embrace and somewhat moving our feet a little bit.

After homecoming, we just sort of decided we were now dating, but it had lost a bit of the surreal, romantic effect of a high school dance. I hadn’t kissed her yet, but I was pulling myself together for it, as it would have been my first kiss.

On that day that I had planned to kiss her, she told me at lunch (I had been warned by her friends) that she, quote, wasn’t ready for a boyfriend right now, and that she thought we should break up. She wanted us to still be friends though.

Of course, this was devastating, being my first real girlfriend, my first real break up, and with someone I really cared about.

About a day later it still seemed like she liked me and we returned to spending every second we could of every day together, although more than before we were dating (which lasted a total of one week).

I really started to thing that she still liked me, so I asked her friend and she said she did. I talked to Anna about it, asking her if she still liked me at all. She said yes, and I said that I still did too. I asked her why she broke up with me then, and she said that that was the truth, that she wasn’t ready for a relationship (again, im her first boyfriend) but when I asked her to Homecoming she said yes wondering if she was. I asked if there was a chance that maybe eventually we could possibly get back together, and she said she didn’t know, but not anytime soon. I was a bit more hopeful after this.

3 weeks in the future…

Still friends, I still like her, wondering if I love her but I won’t admit that to myself or anyone else yet.

Yesterday she spoke to me in private saying that, She didn’t like me as anything more than a really good friend and wanted it to stay that way. She also said, to make me feel better I think, that she did at one point really like me, but not anymore. ( I had been wondering because she had been spending a lot less time with me starting about a week ago)

Okay, so I have this great girl who I might be in love with, who I have dated before, who liked me at one point but no longer does, who doesn’t really want a relationship with anybody(so it isn’t just me).

As far as I see it, I have 2 options

Try and totally forget about what was and most likely won’t be again and move on, keeping it the way it is as just friends,

Pursuing her and trying to get her to like me back, not an easy task, and potentially risking our friendship.

I need help from somebody on which to choose, and I don’t know how to do either one. Someone help me please.

Thanks,

A sad teenager in need of help
