Some people that are exposed to H.I.V. don't get A.I.D.s and some that have had it, through hard work, have bounced back to health, which leads me to believe that it is more about poor nutrition, septic behaviors and poor eating habits, than the cut and dry black and white view they want us to have about this virus.

I was diagnosed offically with ovarian cysts on monday. I will be 26 in May. When I was about 18 I was put on metformin and shortly after birth control. I was never informed the full reason why i was taking these meds. What I was told though made sence at the time. I was told that I had high insulin and the metformin would help that. The male pattern hair growth was directly a result of the high levels of insulin over stimulating the hormones and caused them to keep producing in overtime. Now I find that in reality I was hypoglycemic with insulin levels reaching 5x too high. And weather I actually had it then or not they found the string of pearls on my ovaries last month in an ultrasound. I was taking 5 metformin/day. I may be mistaken but I believe they were 500mg each. I had to take another medication because not only was it lowering my insulin like we wanted, it was lowering my already low sugar levels and making me feel sick regularly. I stopped all 3 meds to control by diet alone

I am an over the road truck driver who injured my back in Sept og 2006.I fell and recieved a compression fracture in my back.I have had all the regular test they do.I have also seen 2 nuerologists.Their comp doctor said I am temporarilly disabled and mine said my compression fracture has healed and also their doctor said I had 2 herniated discs.I am going to physical therapy and it is causing me to hurt more.My family doctor got tot see my c/t scan which the other didn't and said it by no means look normal.I hurt everyday,with leg pain and buttocks pain along with back pain and numbness.I would like to know if this type of injury makes some people disabled and they can't return to work,which would hurt me deeply.I love what I do and not to be able to travel the way I did would hurt me in a very bad way

after being born without any? Furthermore he knows of another boy who grew back part of his arm and a whole hand after a farm accident. Also I personally know one lady, approx. age 65, who has had RP, a degenerative disease, all her life and at one point was totally blind at around age 20, who the doctors say has no measurable sight, who for many years was reading a book a week, worked from home with her cpu, eventually even threw away her magnifying glass that she had used for years, and even stopped wearing these very thick glasses, and decided that her sight was fine. From then on and till she went back to Europe to live, her ability to see improved, though it could not be measured by the specialists. Now after being in her old environment, it is beginning to deteriorate again and now she tells me that she may start to use a white cane for the first time. By the way the boy who grew the hand back did it on his own after seeing that lizards do it. Both kids live in mexico. Well?

about 1.5 years ago we were driving along a residential street when the passenger window blew out(i was sitting in passenger seat hubby was driving) we aren't sure what happened but think a rock hit the window from a lawn mower accross the street. anyway all the windows were up in the van and when the window broke i felt enormous pressure on the side of my face. after that i have had sharp stabbing pains in my right ear. dr has checked for infection and glass or debris from the window and found none. sometimes it will hit me just out of the blue it is very painfull. it came to my attention today that it may have something to do with the baarmetric pressure. as we have had a major storm come in today and my ear hurts like crazy. i think i may try keeping a diary of when the pain hits and the weather conditions. but do you think that the barametric change is a probabl cause of my irratic stabbing ear pain? thanks michelle
