Health - 22 July 2006

I have used home remedys like a bar of palmolive soap under my sheets, to tonic water and a couple of tablespoons of mustard to relieve or deter leg cramps. Man I had one this morning at 5 am in my thigh, all the way up to my groin area. Every night I get them in my feet. They hurt! Do you have any 'cures' that you use?

All the solutions I hear, including forcing yourself to think of other things like the furniture around you, don't really help very much. You can't block out your thoughts forever, and that's not really how confident people think. Even if I realize intellectually that other people aren't paying attention, it doesn't really make a difference emotionally, since it's not a switch that you can just turn on and off at will.

If you contracted it in World War II while stationed in the Phillipines could it cause things like heart murmurs or do any weakening of the valves. Or could it affect muscles in the body?

I am concerned with the anti depression drug. I still have up and down periods. I was on zanax for years and it helped me. Todays MD seem afraid to prescribed zanax they prefer the more expensive medicine. I am 80 but still active. BP is good but my head fills as if it is blown up with air. Sometimes I think a psychiatrist would be helpful to me. Your response appreciated and thanks.

I was born with a heart murmur but recently diagnosed with CHF. I am a 42 year old wife and mother of 3 teenagers. I was a fitness professional (for the past17yrs) who taught very progressive exercise classes (65%-80% MHR) that mainly focused on improving and maintaining a healthy heart muscle. I was a vegetarian (no flesh foods) for 5yrs. During those years my body fat percentage and body weight was within normal ranges for my height/weight and age group. I have never taken any drugs (illegal or otherwise) and I have never been a heavy drinker (an occasional wine cooler during the college years). I have never taken steroids at all and I have never taken diuretics. Three years ago my mother was diagnosed with CHF and she's 64yrs old. Contrary to me, my mother and Father had been alcoholics for as long as I can remember, intravenous drug users in addition to other illegal drugs. My mom is a heavy smoker and her diet doesn't contain vegetables or fruit in any way. Dad died heart failure

Ok, I have always had a little bump behind my right canine tooth. Just a small one and never thought anything about it because my dentist never said anything. I have had it swell a bit before but last night it was tender and I pushed on it with my tongue, now the front part of my mouth, just behind my teeth is swollen?! Anyone know what might be going on?

Meaning, they are using the whole "society expects me to be too thin" excuse to justify their bad eating habits rather than diet and get down to a healthy weight?

I'd like to see women who complain actually eat a well balanced and proper diet sans donuts, excess carbs, excess meat, and excess fat, try it for one year and see what weight they get down to. If it's a metabolism problem, they've got every right to complain.

If it's a matter of discipline, then they problem is them, not society. How many takers? I'm a size 2 myself am tired of the bigger girls making comments about my thinness when the problem just might be THEM.
