Health - 8 January 2007

I slipped on the stairs while carrying a small mattress and banged my wrist extremely hard. The pain was really intense and I sat on the couch. Next thing I know I am waking from a semi-conscious state and realized I was shaking. My boyfriend observed that I had been convulsing for a few seconds and did not respond to him calling my name. Now I seem fine, but I was wondering what happened or if I should see a doctor? Another factor to consider is that we had both been cleaning with a variety of chemicals in the room I was in and I am not sure of what the air quality was - though we did have two open doors. I am not sure if that has anything to do with what happened but I wanted to give all the information. I was wondering if it was an anoxic seizure? I have never experienced it before, but I have passed out before or blacked out from severe pain (once from banging my shins on exercise equipment, once getting 3 shots in a row, and once from breaking my finger). What happened?

Thinking of seeing a kinesiologist, I would really appreciate some impartial advice. It would be good to hear about your personal experiences.

A bike is no good because of bone on bone contact, rowing same problem. The gym I went to only let me use the upper body machines, no cardio at all. My legs ache due to the lack of exercise. My calf has lost mass due to lack of exercise. I tried a water arobics class, didn't get my heart rate up and a lot of it was in neck deep water and involved jumping up and down in the pool.
I also would prefer to exercise at home.

Okay, back in Nov. I went to the gyno to get my regular exam/pap test done and I had this lump in my bikini area (you can't see it, but you can feel it) that I wanted to mention to her. She took a quick glance at it and said not to worry too much about it, that is was probably caused by shaving that area and to just leave it alone and see if it clears up. Well, I still have it and it has gotten larger. It's been two months since my appointment. It bothers me when I wear clothes b/c it rubs the area and it makes it sore.

Any advice? Has anyone had something similar? I will probably call and make an appointment this week to have it checked out again. Someone told me though that you have to go to a dermatologist for something like this?

I would really love to that to my partner. It will not only give her immense pleasure but will also help me arouse, as I really love this passionate act. But lately someone told me that there could be some health hazards. Would like to have your opinions please.

Tips for gaining weight......?
Does anyone have any tips on putting on some weight? I am naturally slim but want to put on some more weight and add more curves. I am 5'3 and 100 lbs. I exercise and eat alot of carbs and snack all through the day but no luck. I have had 3 kids and "spread" alittle bit but am back to my pre-pregnancy weight. Should I drink boost or ensure? Should I be taking a weight gainer supplement? Any advice would be appreciated thanks :)

My four sisters and I have signed up for our town's local diet competition. Now, we need a creative, funny team name. Yes, we all need to lose the weight, we aren't exactly skinny. Please give serious replies, we want a name that gets attention and gets fans behind us.

I really need to lose some weight but it's a lot harder than it used to be since I've had three kids. I've tried diet pills Like RELEASE but gained even more weight after. My main target area is my stomach! I try to exercise when possible, but I tire easly from running around after three kids and cleaning and working..takes all my energy! Any advice as to what you think is a good diet would be great!
