Health - 6 September 2006

I count my carbs on a sliding scale. I can go to bed at 80 and sometimes i wake up over 300. And if i give myself insulin it still seems to go up. I don't eat bad. Before i go to bed i may have a yogurt, or something lite. I know i can rebound with fruits and ice cream so i stay away from that. Any suggestions as to why my blood sugars are being soo high?

I took phentermine years ago prescribed by a non military doctor. Now I am in the military and was wondering if any military people on here knew whether or not it would be allowed for me to take it. If I got it precribed from a civilian doctor would I have to inform the military? It's the only way I've ever been able to lose weight but I don't want to get in trouble for it.

Some say it is reliable; others say it isn't at all.

I was interested in possibly going for a consultation, to see for myself how it is, but thought I would ask if anyone has any experiences to share.

Thank you.

I am 23 and while growing up my family couldn't afford a dentist for me so I basically didn't know the proper way to take care of my teeth! And now the effects are catching up to me! I had work done on some of my bottom back teeth and four of my bottom teeth are crooked...is there any other way to fix them? I heard it would be difficult to get braces if your teeth are not natural!

I know I shouldn't do it, but I keep picking at the scab on my shoulder from laser tattoo removal. It's just too cool to pick off chunks of dead flaky skin. Why is that?

I'm writing a book and my character has insomnia, I was wondering if any one out there can help me with my research on the condition. I'm looking for a person, preferably a female - as my character is a woman - to help me with a first hand account of what its like.

In my language class, we have to come up with another way for Odyesseus to escape from the cyclops. I think that maybe puring his wine in his eyes would work.

I in the past few months began having painful chest pains for a moments time.Once while at school i had a deep pushing pain with a pain in my left arm(never occured to me it might be heart problem)then on July 4 about two months later it happened again as i was sitting downwatching T.V.I had been to the ER 4 times in less than a month and at the time of this pain i was wearing a holter monitor(heart monitor).
I had 3-4 EKG/ECK done to me and all stated that it was Normal.
And my doctor and emergency room doctors all said my EKGs were normal.

Is it normal or are the doctor lieing?or is just anxiety,a little depression,and me being anemic causing these frequent pains?

What going to happen to me in the afterlife. Also If I get into a car accident on purpose with someone else, and he/she died, and I lived is this considered murder. What also going to happen to me in the afterlife. If I did this intentionally.

I have been a pretty avid runner over the past 8 years, but as of a couple years ago I got out of it because of my knee. Every time I try to get back into it my knee bothers me and it becomes very disappointing and frustrating. I had an MRI done a couple years ago and was diagnosed with a torn meniscus and arthritis. Do you have any advice you could give me to help me get back into running shape?
