I drink a lot of diet Pepsi (72 oz/day). My girlfriend told me that aspartame, an ingredient in diet Pepsi, causes formaldehyde to form in the body, which could be harmful. I love my diet Pepsi but don't want to cause health issues. Is aspartame really that bad for you, or is it just another 'sky is falling' warning? If it is harmful, is there a daily allowance that would be okay? I'd hate to give it up altogether. I also drink a lot of water (over 72 oz/day).

A friend of mine thinks she may be pregnant. She believes she has been pregnant for 3 weeks, and her period is a week and a half late. Recently, she took a pregnancy test, and the result was negative. What are the chances that she is pregnant?

I have Mitro Valve Prolapse and Pituitary failure. Today, my left shoulder, arm, and middle toe on my left foot have been numb and feeling weird, plus I have shortness of breath. I'm a 40-year-old female. Do I need to do something?

I am trying to get pregnant but haven't gotten my period, so I don't think I'll ovulate. I'm not sure what to do when I eventually do get my period. How will I know when I am ovulating, and is there anything I can do to make my period come?
