Does anybody have any experience with verapamil for treatment of cluster headaches? I have suffered with them for 15 years untill my doctor gave me verapamil to prevent them. Now it seems the first day I start taking it my headaches go away. Just wondering if anybody else has had similar results especially in such a short time frame

Lentils count as part of your 5-fruit-and -veg-a-day, so do baked beans and even sweet potatoes but not the good old spud.
Why not?

I had a pap smear done about three weeks ago and I also got tested for STD's.Everything came out fine. I had an infection and the gyno prescribed me Diflucan which didnt do absolutely nothing. Then I did a 3 day treatment and I still have an infection. Could I have something else? I had an abnormal pap smear 4 yrs ago and they had to freeze me down there to get rid of all the cancerous cells. But, with these new commerical "if your pap smear is normal you dont need to worry right? yes....no you should get test for the HPV test". Do you get any symptoms when you have cancerous cells?? like discharge?? I am really worried i schedule an appointment again with my gyno to see whats going on.

My husband was recently reprimanded at work for being too slow. He and I both know it is because he is 100 + lbs overweight. I have taken all the sugar out of the house and I have been cooking low carb for months now. He refuses to eat many vegetables. Lettuce, tomatoes, carrotts and most of the green leafy things are off limits as far as he is concerned. He will not go near a salad. How do I get him to eat healthier so he can lose weight? I also need to try to motivate him to excercise. His job is very physical and he has been doign it for 10 years. He is so tired when he gets home all he wants to do is sleep. What can I do? I am at my wits end here. He is only 29 years old! Please no rude comments.

So, people say it causes:
-infertility
-hair loss
-depression or anxiety
-lack of energy
-damages muscle tissue
-skin problems/swelling
-increase in appetite
-ingrowing toenails
-anal leakage
How much of this is true, and is there anymore side effects of smoking weed?

Recently alot of girls at my school have been cutting for various reasons. Some of them because of their family others because of boyfriends. I've tried to talk to them but that seems to not work. I've been on other sites about tring to talk to them and all that the sites say is to tell them to put a rubberband on their wrists and when they want to cut snap the rubber band on their wrist. But I think that snapping a rubberband is just as bad. Then on the other sites they say just to leave them alone, and I refuse to do that. They just dont understand what that does to them. What can I do, and what does cutting lead to? I figure if I tell them what it leads to then mabey they will atleast consider tring to quit. PLEASE help me.

I was having an argument with my boyfriend. He seems to think that you couldn't last even to two weeks without food. I thought I'd remembered hearing somewhere that it was 28 days though.
Anyone know how long you can go without food before you die? (I know it's not an exact thing)

Has any men out there used this product? Is it for long-term use? Its a product from England. Also, is greying hair purely genetic or hereditary or can it be from just being not a very active person?

Well, I've got gall---as in one big gallstone and while it's not bothering me the potential is there. And you know how these things never flare at a convenient moment....

So, I should schedule to remove it. Laproscopy, seems pretty straight forward, I'm overweight, but the surgeon said he's done people way heavier and it wasn't a real issue (he apparently hasn't been jeans shopping with me).

Anyone had this done? What can I expect? The surgeon said a 1-3 week recovery, I'm pretty healthy and have a good attitude so I'm optimistic I will bounce back fairly quick. Thanks for any insights? I'm acting pretty brave, but secretly a bit scared. I'm looking to schedule after the holidays as I have kids, and need to be 100% for the next 8 weeks.

Thanks!
