She is currently trying singular, but it isn't working. Uses albuteral every day (not good, I know). I prefer alternative treatment whenever possible. I've tried quercitin (sp) and bromeline and several other methods. Anyone tried something that really improves asthma.

I have tried lots and they are all rubbish. To have it done by a dentist cost £400, is it cheaper somewhere else?

My mother in law is 51 years old and has a acoustic neuroma brain tumour. For many years she has suffered reoccuring shingles & chicken pox alternating. One time she has chicken pox then the nest time its shingles. She was sent for a brain scan 7 years ago and that was when they discovered the tumour which up to now has been monitored by scans and has not grown. My question is that is there any long term cure or solution for her chicken pox/shingles??? Some years she gets them 4 times and it is dehabilitating even with antiviral meds. Any advice massively appreciated.

I was given a sulfa medication and it listed this as a rare side affect. Then i started getting a rash and i stopped it...then i did research and found that it can get was as the days go on, and that it is like a second degree burn. I found that alot of reactions to alot of meds are actually causing this reaction in many people, and that alot of doctors are completely unaware of it. I'm just a little worried.

People act like it's the end of the world if they gain 5 lbs. What's so bad about gaining a little weight? Will it make you a bad person? Is it REALLY that serious???

I am trying to sleep at night in my room. What sort of remedy would you use to 'drown out' or muffle the noises of the television in the living room? My roommates like to watch lots of TV at night.

I have already tried earplugs, but I need to be able to hear my alarm clock in the morning! Any ideas on what you would do?

I just noticed this large bump on my labia area. I have had this once or twice before. The bump is usually in the same exact place, VERY hard and somewhat whitish. There is no hair protruding, nor any pus or anything like that. It is also not itchy at all. About 2 months ago, I was diagnosed with HPV and I also shave completely down there. Is the bump a symptom of HPV, an ingrown hair or something else? Please no jokes. I've been married for 5 years and we are monogomous.
