Health - 8 January 2007

My daughter is 15 months old and does not walk. She was just diagnosed with "low muscle tone". She will be working with 4 different therapist 1 hour each every week.

I would like to work with her on my spare time too. Her "low muscle tone" includes nearly every muscle including her mouth. She just began to crawl about 3 weeks ago and they said that crawling is the best exercise but didn't really say anything else.

Any help would be wonderful. Thanks in advance.

Where did this myth come from? I have been asked if wearing paper because a girl didn't have a pad or tampon can cause a girl not to be able to have a baby. I know the answer is NO, but where did this myth come from, and what is the reason that girls believe this?

i have been having rpoblem sleeping for a long time now. I get up at about 6.40 in the morning and head off to work about 7.30ish. I've never experienced/been stress, even in the harshest (academic and work) conditions. I go to bed about 11.30 at night but still have problems sleeping, i close my eye but can't seem to fall asleep till about 1, and then HATE waking up. Even if i go to bed at 10 i still can't fall asleep!!

Everytime i have about 3 days holiday, i revert back to sleeping till late in the afternoon and going to bed at about 4 or 5 in the morning. Am i natural night bird?

What can i do to fall asleep QUICKLY and EARLY? I've tried over the counter sleeping pills but they don't do f u k all...please help with herbal remedies, techniques or anything else over the counter stuff that has proven to work...

If you have anything HELPFUL to say, please state it.

Im 13 and my period hasn't came for two months. I've only ever had one cycle as I have just started recently. I got worried because I haven't had my period. Is this common when you first start? I felt too embarrassed to talk to my mam about this but she knows I've started anyway.
Any ideas?

my boyfriend started taking nyquil about 2 months ago for a cold but he's been better for a while now but he still takes it every night because he said he can't sleep without it. Does that mean he's addicted to nyquil?

When someone has cancer and they take kemo, or radiation treatments, does it really help? I have a friend that is 30 years old and she is on her death bed. She has swelled up like a balloon with water in it, and I was wondering what causes this, and does the treatments given for cancer really work, or does it just prolong death for a while?

She was diagnosed 1 year ago with a brain tumor, which was removed, and then it has just spread rapidly throughout her body.

My back hurts a lot. I've went to the physical therapist and have to do these exercises. That was about three years ago. I've stopped the exercises cuz I don't know if they really worked. Is there someplace special I can go to help with my back. Is there any good exercises out there?

It happens when the person is almost asleep. The convulsion is in the entire body and is hard enough to jar them and the other person in the bed awake. It happens once every few months with no warning and the person feels normal afterwards. The person is an adult but has experienced this for about twelve years (since about the age of ten). May be unrelated, but this person's hand will also jerk uncontrollably once every few months. It only jerks once and then is fine. If anyone has an idea of what is wrong or other symptoms to watch for, it is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I just started Weight Watchers and for my exercise routine, I have been walking 1 mile everyday. I break it up by walking 1/2 mile in the mornings and 1/2 mile in the evenings. I have a 100+ pounds to lose, and I feel I am on the right track, but I was just curious to know if anyone knows the answer. My calorie intake a day is around 1000 to 1200. I have cut out soft drinks and I drink 8 glasses of water a day, plus eating sugar free and low fat or fat free foods.

I was sitting here thinking of when I was in high school. I remembered one of my friends saying she went to a restaurant and her server had a very bad eye infection. When asked what was wrong with her eye, the waitress said she had got crabs in her eyebrow and causing her eye to get very infected.

Now, I wouldn't think this person would be allowed to work in a restaurant with such an infection, but I was just wanting to know if it was possible? Mainly, I just wanted to know if my friend was full of crap.

I haven't had an appetite since Friday, I have hardly had anything to eat, nothing hurts I just don't feel well. I went to the doctor and they gave me something for nausea but I don't think thats the problem, I'm scared. I want to eat, but I just don't want to at the same time. Can this be a symptom of Anemia? I called another doctor today and he didn't seemtoo concerned about it. Just told em to keep forcing myself to eat. I'm very upset that something is wrong. I'm not pregnant, I took a test and everything. Has anyone else had this problem? Please help.
