I have high blood pressure and am currently taking 20mg of Lisinopril and 100 mg of Toprol XL. My doctor told me I need to lose weight, and I keep seeing commercials for Hydrocicut on TV.

1. Does it really work?

2. Is it safe for someone on high blood pressure medication?

Please, no lectures about diet and exercise.

I'm majoring in law (criminal justice) and I can't figure out why men and women in today's society are still carrying their social security cards in their wallets, I carry my card when I need it in case of emergencies and when I don't need it I keep it in a safe place. But you would think with all of the identiy thefit one would be more cautious; say for instance your lose your purse or wallet or it get's stolen then what??? Maybe it's a personal decision I'd like to hear any feedback anyone wants to offer.

I've known my man for 10 years but after I married we stopped talking to each other. Around the time I filed for divorce, I ran into him. I was given the divorce and my man and I decided to get back together. It turns out that I've matured a great deal and we can actually conversate for hours. I got full custody of the children and their father is not allowed visitation because I was able to prove that he was very abusive and could not be trusted alone with them as he had used our daughter as a sheild while breaking my ankle. Occasionally, I will let him see his children out of pity. They are his kids too, but he shouldn't have acted the way he did. My man asked me a couple of days ago if I wanted to marry him. We've both been through a divorce and I just don't want to out of fear of the future. Having to have that pinned to me for the rest of my life and all the hassle of possible bad endings. What does everyone think? My mom thinks it's great, but she's old school too.

The distance between two successive maxima of a transverse wave is 1.20 s, Eight crests, or maxima, pass a given point along the direction of travel every 12.0s.. Calculate the wave speed.

A piano emits frequencies that range from a low of about 28 Hz to a high of about 4200 Hz. Find the range of wavelenghts spanned by this instrument. The speed of sound in air is approximately 343 m/s.

I'm desperate!! Please help.
I have a case study due for school. What is the medical dx?

Patient: 42y/o, SOB, underweight, high WBC & BUN & PB. Anxious, in & ex wheeze, weak, dry cough. Dyspnic, tachycardia & pnea, temp 102.2. Cool & clammy. Hyptoactive bowel.

Here's my thinking:
Pneumonia - no because cough is usually productive and not wheezing like in case study.

TB - maybe, but usually crackles and chest pain, but not in study.

PE- tachypenia, dyspnea & anxiety fit, but what are breath sounds with PE? Why a fever if PE?

COPD - cough is usually productive. Why would pt have fever & high WBC?

Asthma - fits best with the presentation, but wheeze is more common on expiration. More important, why does the pt have the fever, high WBC & high BUN?

Bronchitis has a productive cough.

BUN can be kidney, sepsis, excess protein consumption, starvation, dehydration, or cardiac failure.
Pt is very thin. Can BUN be due to starvation & starvation due to dyspnea? But why fever

I have naturally wavy & curly hair. It's been curlier ever since I cut it a little bit shorter. Its about 2 inches down from my shoulder. I want to cut it, but it'll make my hair even MORE curlier.

I want to permenately straighten it to cut it shorter, but im afraid to.. my friends all think my hair's beautiful, but that's because I straighten it every day, the straightener straightens, but it isn't very good. Straighters dont work for me.

Help?
