Health - 16 January 2007

I'm eating lots of egg to gain some muscle and the eggs I bought were labelled to be fortified with Omega-3 so I wonder whether I should eat the yolk or otherwise because Omega-3 is good for the brain and the nerveous system.

She has had it for a week. For how long is it contagious?
If she has hung my towel in the morning and I use it at night. Can it still be contagious?

I was also hypoglycaemic and had been having difficulties getting my blood sugars up. I have been hypo before, but never with these symptoms. Was this a faint or a TIA (mini stroke?)

I'm praying that if I get all of this down, someone might know what the heck is wrong with me.
Thanksgiving, I got real sick, tried to go sleep it off, couple days later I went to Emergency room with some sort of Viral Pneumonia. They admit me into the hospital. Check this,. The whole time I was there 3 days, I was sweaty, cold, very restless, Like restless legs in my whole body.
It was like I was wearing a straight jacket. Every 4 hours they would give me Albuterol so after a while I figured the albuterol was making me freak out right?
I really thought as soon as I got home I would be okay. Nothing changed, I pace around like an idiot. It's like I have to move or I feel like I'm going nuts. So, I go back to the doctor and they give me some xanax and put me on some thyroid medicine. I quit the xanax, I feel almost normal when I'm working, but when I try to relax, restless body kicks in, can't sleep, lost 20 pounds. I took a lunesta last night and did not sleep at all. Anyone Help?

Particularly in my knees and ankles. So much so that it is excruciating to walk down stairs. I've never felt pain like this before. I'm stiff and sore. Almost feels as if my legs are going to give out completely. I'm starting to wonder if it is going to go away or if I have actually injured myself. I was not in any kind of pain while I was walking/running. It hit me several days later. Now I can barely walk at all. Any tips to relieve the pain??????

What happens to body parts that the hospitals take out, ie: a hysterectomy, a cyst, or an arm or something?

Do they just throw it in the trash??

Is this a good and effective plan in order to lose weight and slim my thighs?

I don't want to build more muscle, and I'm planning to do 45 min high energy, low impact step aerobics 3-4 times a week to see a result in my thighs. There's already muscle in my thighs, but there's still FAT in it. Maybe even do pilates 2 times a week, if I feel like it. What do you think? I'm definitely eating healthy and I don't want to build more muscle esp make them any bigger

I've been trying for years now-but finally,when I found a bump on her gum-was able to get her in to see an emergency dentist. The bump was nothing to worry about-but they found 6 cavities! All in her back teeth-all of which are adult teeth. (She's 7.) I'm worried about how she'll react when they come to fill the cavities-my guess is she'll be hysterical! Someone told me they often put children under to fill cavities if they feel the child will be overly distressed. Is that true?

A week ago I got my two two bottom wisdom teeth removed. The swelling went down on both sides of my mouth, but now is reappearing on the right side. I am having trouble irrigating the hole on that side as well. If I go back to the surgeon, how is he likely to treat the infection? If antibiotics, what sort?
