I am scheduled for an EMG tomorrow on both of my legs. I have two herniated discs in my lower back and both of my legs are going numb. What should I expect from this test? I've heard its painful and that its not. I've also heard that there are uncomfortable sensations for days afterwards. Does anyone know what I should be expecting?

Hah..

If I was to put a drop of hand sanitizer on my hands and light it on fire, would I be burned as badly as I would if there was no hand sanitizer there?

there's a girl i know who's taking birth control pills, but I don't think she's sexually active because she's in a long distance relationship and never sees her boyfriend, so she isn't having sex (and she's not the type to fool around). But she's taking the pill. I was wondering why she would bother taking the pill if she's not having sex. Does the Pill fulfill any other purposes besides just limiting pregnancy?

As a medical student, I am studying about this in Biochemistry. It is being reported as clinically asymptomaticand benign.However, I was wondering if it may have some mild symptoms. All my life I have a feeling of weakness and sickness after drinking some fruit juices and eating large amount of fruits such as grapes and plums. These are associated with the disease. This weakness goes away shortly and there are no other other symptoms. I also wonder about my lineage. I am descended on my mother's side from Polish ancestors but I was brought to believe we were all catholics...no one talked about any Jewish ancestry. If I have the condition would it mean I had the Jewish ancestry? Maybe someone was afraid to admit it? I would appreciate any info.

I'm going to college by day and work at night. The hours are REALLY wired, I work 8pm to 4:30 am and back to school at around 9am. I need a sleeping pill that will help me sleep when I need to. As you can see, I don't have a lot of time to waste waiting to sleep. I need all the time I have free to sleep.

I am also taking Adderall for my ADHD so sleeping can be hard at times. Do you know any sleeping pills that works well for you, the kind that don't leave you feeling tired?

Can you recommend any remedies for flushing it out from the inside. Please note, that I am living in China, and some of this stuff is not so readily available. However, I mayt be able to get medicines sent from the UK.

I'm wondering how far back people can remember ..

My first memory is a strange one and occurs when I was 4 yrs old and standing outside a house which was flooded later on when I was 5. We were standing outside looking up at the roof and there was a large ball stuck up there and lots of people were trying to get it down but couldn't... weird :-)
