I need expert advise, so if youre not an expert please don't respond, unless you've had the same problems. I have a daushter that is 1 month. She was diagnosed with GERD( acid reflux) when she was 2 weeks.Nothing stays down even after the rice cereal, she cries all night, and I just want her to be comfortable. The doctors keep perscribing her different medicines( Zantac, Axid, Reglan) but nothing seems to work for her. We're going to see a specialist but not soon enough. Her doctor said that we might have to do surgery, but before we do that I just need to know is there any other medicines we should try or is there anything else we can do to help her befor putting here through surgery because shes so young? Please e-mail me or contact me any way possible if you have any answers for me. I really need your help.

Thousands of people have sued the tobacco industry because their products caused cancer. My question is this: If the FDA approves the ingrediants in our foods and our foods are consumed daily by the public and these foods causes illnesses such as diabeties, obesity and cancer; then i'm curious why haven't consumers sued the government for this? If a person dies from diabeties complications, let's say type II (since that encompasses about 90 percent of diabeties today) wouldn't that in a sense be committing murder in an indirect passive way to the public? Keep in mind the tobacco industry, millions have died because of products this industry produces and it is approved as legal by the United States government. Those that have sued the tobacco industry, knew it was bad for them, they still sued and WON and even though we know sugar and other chemicals in our food are bad, they are consumed by the same people who may have less knowledge of nutrition yet still eat this approved food.

I would like to know what happens with the menstruation; does it happen just once each 2 months? Is it done with general or local anesthesia; Is the recovery from the operation hurtful? How long should you stay in the hospital? And home in bed? Is the scar left very big? Will I be able to hide it? Anything else about the experience that you think I should know? Thanks!

Whenever I laugh, I get this relentless wet cough. If I don't constantly cough, it builds up and then it forces its way out or my voice gets really screwed up and I have to keep clearing my throat. It's embarrassing when I'm around friends and get this. Is this normal/common? Why does this happen? Is there any way to prevent it? (probably not)
