I have always suffered from heavy constipation and recently discovered that Vitamin C works like a CHARM for me in that department. So I started taking between 5,000 and 8,000 milligrams of Vitamin C (powder form) daily. In the last few weeks however I have been extremely tired for no reason, very pale and came up highly anemic in a recent blood test.

Does anyone know if there could be a connection between the two things?

THANK YOU!

I have asked the yahoo community if there were ways to get rid of trans fat, however i have gotten contradicting responses. ONe person said that the only way you get rid of trans fit from your body is when the cells die and regenerate, and the trans fat is sent out of your body or caught again by another cell. Another said that it was HARD to get rid of them, and another person said that HDL can get rid of it? is trans fat the same as LDL cholestorol? HOw can you get trans fat molecules out of your system?

Here's the situation:
* Doctor writes the correct prescription
* Pharmacist is unsure about the dosage and calls doctor's office to verify
* Nurse from doctor's office informs pharmacist that the doctor must have written the wrong dosage and directs the pharmacist to change it.
* Pharmacist crosses out dosage on prescription and gives incorrect dosage.

Is the pharmacist negligent by changing a written prescription? Does a nurse have the authority to change a doctor's written prescription?

Luckily, the wrong dosage was spotted before taking the medication. The dosage dispensed could have been fatal when used as originally prescribed. Other than notifying the doctor's office and the pharmacy, what else can be done?

Hi, I recently had 4 periods over 6 week gap, pretty light, then finally 3 weeks ago one hell of a period, pulling my insides out honestly thought i was losing my womb, lasted approx 36 hours then passed a clot the size of a medium egg, pains subsided but bleed persisted for further 5 days, heavy was an understatement. Periods hopefully now settled, but since then I am waking up with very tender nipple pains, lasting only minutes like wanting to explode then settle, but tender breasts all day. Can anyone relate or advise?? Defo not pregnant - immaculate if was. In 30's. Thanks for any genuine help

I'm 18 years, and my period is a freaking nightmare for me. I've been using pads for 6 years and it's horrible. I really want to try tampon, but I don't have any idea how to put in a tampon. I can't ask my mom, she doesn't use it either. Please explain to me how to put in a tampon, and how to change it? I know that I should push it to my vagina to put in it, but how to take it out from there? I'm afraid of the possibilities that the tampon might be stucked inside me. Help!!!!

Nowdays, smokers are suing the tobacco companies because they are getting cancer. However the labels on the backs clearly indicate the risk. Should these lawsuits really be admissable into a court of law?
