The chemo is being stopped temporarily. Most likely will have to resume some time this year, thus we are leaving it in. Doctor said don't worry about it, but I am afraid it might clog, or get infected. Does it need to be flushed with Heparin or saline, and how often?

Doctor tells her that her hormone levels are "too high" to get pregnant. She didn't have a menstruation for 8 months and then suddenly had a heavy flow. She is overweight, diabetic, hypertensive. She is willing to try InVitro if pregnancy is possible. What should she do to increase her chances of getting pregnant?

a few yrs ago, i met up w/an acquaintance i'd only known for a few days. we went to his house, and he asked me if i wanted something to drink. i said 'sure'. well, i got up and tried to watch him pour the drink, water out of a prechilled Sprite 2 liter bottle, n he acted ansy, as though he didn't want me to watch. well, i took the water from him, and drank it. it tasted kind of sweet. he went out side to smoke a ciggerette, and i sat on the couch. i started feeling really, really warm, which was unusual, bc it was decemeber, and 30 degrees outside. i also started to feel drowsy, and peaceful.something inside told me i needed to get some air, and keep moving. so i went outside, and talked about 3 mins w/him, at which point we went back inside, and sat on the couch. he starte trying to kiss me, and i pushed him off me. he got irritated, and took me home. i had no sooner made it to my bed, than i lost conciousness, and slept for the next 12 hrs. was i drugged, and if so, w/what?

I'm looking for a comprehensive Weight Watchers Points Guide so I can print it out, and loose some weight this summer. Please direct to on finding a list of how many points each food or beverage is. I don't want to join Weight Watchers or have to sign up for anything online.

My friend was at her boyfriends house when he says she had a seizure. She has never before had a seizure. He said she fell to the floor with the seizure, he had to use CPR to resusitate her, she then threw up, and he put her to bed. When she woke up she had no recollection of what happened, she has a bump on her head, a gash on her lip, scrapes on her back, and a broken collar bone. This all happened on a carpeted hallway floor. Her boyfriend is sometimes abusive. I'm wondering if these are common side effects of having a seizure.

I've tried OTC sleep aids which didn't work and then my doctor prescribed temazapam first, then ambien and finally lunesta. (None of which helped). I'm in good health and I'm not depressed. At first I could fall asleep without a problem, but couldn't stay asleep; now it's hard to fall asleep or stay asleep. If this has happened to you, how did you cope? Is there something that will help me get some sleep?

I want real facts here. Maybe a site that can prove what happens. I can speak English and Spanish and the Mexicans with whom I have spoken on this issue say that they Illegal Americans aren't treated badly, but the Americans say that they are beaten, jailed, etc. I want to know the truth.
Thank you for any useful information.
