Health - 16 January 2007

I went to the dentist because I had what felt like a chip in my back top right tooth. He said it might need a root canal, and he would drill it and see if we can just do the crown. He drilled the tooth down and put a filling in the tooth. I came back and he took x-rays he said it was close but it looked like he saved the tooth. He then put a temporary crown on it, and I waited for the permenant one to come back in so i could get it put on. When I went back he poped the temp off, and he scraped the bad tooth gently which still hurt. He said it would be sensitive because its so close to the root. He then cleaned it, and he dried the tooth with gause then pushed the permenant crown on very fast, and it was a VERY intense pain. He said its normal for that pain, and that it would go away. It eventually did, and it was sore. But its been a week today and I still get tooth aches. Im starting to get concerned on if there is something wrong. Does anyone know if this is normal?

High fructose corn syrup is made from genetically modified corn treated with genetically modified enzymes. It prevents the body from making insulin and so it won't break the sugars in your blood and have your body change it into stored fat. isn't that what we try to prevent by using those produts.
HFCS goes straight to your liver and doesn't do anything good for your body.

Many people including myself and one of my sons are allurgic to Aspartame. It causes migraine attacks. In some people it causes seizures.

My son and I recently took some kids vitamins together not knowing it contained Aspartame. Sure enough, we got our migraine attacks from it. There was NO warning label!

I think there should be a law requiring a warning label for Aspartame. Why isn't there?

Ive been to the ER twice, they did tests for pancreatitis appendicitis & gull stones. What else could it be? It hurts just to breathe. It feels like I have something stabbing me from the inside out & it just keeps getting worse & worse. Please help, the Drs are acting stupid like they dont have time.

I have a new job as market researcher of a small dental practice. Part of my job duties is to be able to competently sell these chairs at a huge convention. I must say my background is not in dentistry.
Are there any beginner books or websites that you can recommend?

Thanks

Went to the dr. he said he does not know why it is my right leg since it is left nerve impinged. Released me to work only restriction on lifting. I am wondering if I have other options he is setting me up with a surgeon.
I had no restrictions (still had problem) a couple of weeks ago when I applied for a better job (it requires lifting) Now I am concerned I should not take it as I am in the midst of a comp injury. P.S I currently work for a temp agency

The benefits of certain foods (oatmeal, vegetables, etc) are well documented. But I always wondered if the scientific research was done by testing it raw or actually preparing the food the way most people consume it and then performing tests.

I would like to get your opinon about the nutrional aspects of how/what I eat. I have the past week (I have two weeks recorded so far). Particularly, I would like to know if I should be getting more/less of a certain vitamin or mineral. I started to get concerned about the folate intake I have and thought I would throw this out there.

By the way, I am trying to lose weight right now, which is why my calories are a little lower than usual, but eventually I would like to incorporate more healthy foods that will balance out my daily nutrition.

One other question: When experts talk about getting enough of a certain vitamin or folate, for example, is this EVERY day, or is it really that strict? Like, if I were to only get half of the recommended intake of folate for a couple of days, will that negate all the other days I was eating enough? THANKS in advance, as this board won't allow me to respond once I post =(

I have been having severe panic and anxiety attacks since i started going through pueberty, I often have them at least one or two a week, but what frightens me the most about this is now (more and more) I hallucinate by hearing and breifly seeing things that I KNOW are not there, some times there scary sometimes they are not. I have been researching schizophrenia alot lately and I absolutely think i fit the description for a mild case or lower level schizo, but when i watch people who have it, they are always SOOO much more extreme than me, infact ive only seen non functional with reality type schizos. Its scares me to think that i might turn into one someday in the future since my symtoms only get worse. I used to only get attacks alone, now i get them anytime. i still have control without totally freaking out but for how long? does anyone have an idea what might be wrong. i havent gone to a doctor cause im live in a small town where the doctors are all quacks, and i dont have insur..

I was wondering if anyone has experience with this, a sharp pain in right side upper chest and shoulder, with ajoining pain in back, behind shoulder blade, with occasional pain/numbing or weakness to right arm and hand. Don't know if I just pulled something or if it is more serious. The sharp pain in upper chest/shoulder comes and goes... and is annoying at bedtime. Any help?...
