Hello there...

I have a small question for all of u folks who perform blood draws by syringes....when u draw the patient's blood and proceed to empty the syringe in the test tube...when the syringe is emptied, are there any traces of blood left on the inner walls of it or it looks like it hasnt been used before? So basically, can a nurse not realize that she had used this syringe before?

The reason am asking is coz I went for a blood draw today and I wasnt paying attention so I didnt notice the nurse unwrap a needle...all I saw is her holding the needle and sticking it in my vein..I looked at the needle before she used it and it looked perfectly clean...

i'm trying to lose weight and i know some people think it's unhealthy to stop eating all together so do you think that multivitamin pills will keep me healthy?

Unless you are a super model, an international athlete, actress from Holywood that is famous, a fitness trainer, etc why do a lot of people obsess over their weight? Unless you are a female that weighs about 200 pounds and a male that weights about 300 pounds do not become too obsessed. Yes if you are overweight yes lose weight, but do not become obsessed with it like it is the only thing in your life.If you have not got dibetes, and your blood pressure is good, and all your blood tests are normal and you are breathing normaly, and can sit up and walk around the block without difficulty you do not have to worry. You cannot take your body with you when you die to either heaven or Hell. God does not look at the out side, man does that, God looks at the inside which is more important, don't you think?

My knee doesn't really hurt, it's a little sore but nothing bad. It's really tight and I have a hard time when I try to bend it back to stretch it out or when I try walking up stairs. Sometimes it will pop which makes it feel a little better. I've also noticed that it a little swollen on the outside. It's been bugging me for a little over a week and I honestly can't figure out what I did to it. It's on the opposite leg of the messed up ankle so I don't know if I threw it out of wack when I hurt my ankle about 3 weeks ago and was hobbling around or what. It doesn't really hurt, more like the muscles are just really tight, stiff and sore. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been trying to soak it in hot water (because I do it for my ankle anyway) and that seems to help a little but it's not really getting better. It's not getting worse either though. Should I be concerned? Never had issues with my knees (except for really bad growing pains when I was a teenager about 15 years ago)

Ok first off I must make it clear I not some person who is looking to drop out of College because its heard, I am a pro when it comes to College, I hold an associates degree in Liberal Arts that I got when I lived in New York. In my 24 years I lived in New York I never had any major anxiety disorder and thus had no trouble really fousing in on the tasks at hand or completing any dutys I had. I have lived in Florida now with my family for one year and 1 month and about 3 months ago I started to get anxiety attacks and found it leading to me lossing my job, and now I am finding it hindering my ablity with College. I am wondering if I need to take care of this disorder before contuing on with my College work, or if I should suffer though while trying to get better and let my disorder effect my GPA? Would it be wise to once my mind is clear to then try going back and doing what I always found enjoyment in and thats learning, since right now I have no joy in that.

I wanted to find out more about dyslexia and ADD. If someone had it as a child, can it just go away when a person grows up? If not, what type of medication is prescribed and how does ADD an dyslexia affect daily life?

I am a disabled senior and just recently began experiencing sharp pain in my lower left quadrant and found that I have diverticulitis (as did my mother). I have gone through 2 flareups, taken antibiotics and changed my entire diet (seems to help a great deal with bm's), but am wondering if I should cleanout the entire system of buildup. I surely don't want to opt for surgery if irrigation(s) will help and aren't precluded by having diverticulitis. I surely don't want to aggravate these pouches and chance rupturing them.
Anyone having any experience with either diverticulitis and its recommended diet, and/or colonic irrigations (high colonics), please advise and thank you all.

Hello! I need help!!! I have both rosacea AND acne. I have been told my whole life NOT to use any products with salicylic acid becuz it makes the rosacea even worse. Which does seem to be true. But, i think that the salicylic acid is the best thing to treat zits. So i need an alternative. my whole face is covered in little tiny bumps and then a few actual zits.
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE BEST WAY TO TREAT ACNE/ZITS IF YOU HAVE ROSACEA????
this is super depressing for me. i also don't have insurance so i can't go to a doctor. and don't suggest proactive--becuz that burns my face off!!!!

I always have white stuff coming out of me when I'm not on my period. Is it normal to have it coming out everyday? I'm just sick of the stuff. I know it is normal to have some but I have it every day.

So about 11 days ago i had a tooth extraction on a regular tooth and a wisdom tooth; both located on my bottom jaw. The wisdom tooth seems to be doing okay as its causing me no pain but the other tooth the was removed due to decay seems to be puzzling me. A few days ago white stuff formed on top of my blood cott and it seemed to be doing fine but it just kept falling off and yesterday another white kinda rice looking thing covered my blood cott again, this time covering the gash where the tooth was removed and it seems to be almost unremoveable and on top of that this pinkish color thing is starting to form. Is this normal for the healing process or is it getting infected. And when is it a good time to start normal brushing and eating normally again because for the pass week i have only been able to floss and brush the front teeths, and chew with my front teeth in order to prevent a delay to my healing.
