Health - 24 February 2007

5 years ago my brother in law got shot at 16 years old, his twin sister still lives with the people who did it! (the man did not go to jail).. I don't want my 2 children around her because I think there is something wrong with her and my husband agree's with me but, when the holidays come around again this year what should I do about them being around her? Last Christmas she called and asked if she could come over and my husband told her no and she had to work by the time we went to her parents. I don't know what to do anymore because I am afraid if I go to far it could cause family problems! And she hates me! When I was pregnant with my son.. I got rushed to the hospital because I was so sick and thought I was going into labor on thanksgiving and they asked what had I ate... and the only thing I had was a glass of Tea she brought me!
Do you agree with me on keeping my kids away from her?

I've never had chronic constipation until I was diagnosed with bi-polar and now I have to take a lamactil and effexor XR. I think those meds are the cause.

I've tried high fiber cereals, fiberous fruits and veggies, psyllium husk, an over the counter colon cleanser from the healthfood store, and an herbal laxative tea. Nothing works exept the tea. I also drink lots of water. I have been seditary lately and have recently started exercising, but I dont think that'll be enough.

What to do?

I have had two identical surgeries to fix my torn miniscus in my knee. It was medial. I went to Physical therapy for the first surgery, and I started to go for my second a few months ago, but it caused more pain, so I didn't go anymore. I heard about a baker's cyst which sounds like my symptoms. Should I go and see another doctor, or do you have any ideas about pain relief?

I may be getting a gold crown glued on my back molar this Friday. If I change my mind later on that I want it replaced with a porcelain crown will they be able to remove the gold crown once it's glued on without damaging my molar? Or is the glue so strong that a crown can never be removed once it is glued on?

I am supposed to get a gold crown placed on my back molar this Friday and I am having second thoughts about having gold in my mouth. I prefer porcelain. The lab already made my custom made gold crown. The dentist secretary told me that once the lab makes the gold crown I have to pay for it ($1000) even if I don't want it anymore. I don't understand why they can't do an exchange for a porcelain crown? Can someone explain this to me? They said if I want a porcelain crown I will have to pay an additional $1000 for changing my mind. I didn't realize you can't do exchanges if you change your mind. Is there any way out of this situation? Am I going to have to pay for a gold crown that I don't want anymore?

I have been getting sick a lot this year, and I pretty much always feel like crap. I am at the gym 6 days a week. I run all six of those days, and I weight train on four of them. I run 2 1/2 miles in 20 minutes, and on my weight training days I follow the run with a full body workout that takes me about 1 1/2 hours. I make sure to eat plenty w/protein supplements after each workout, and I stay well hydrated. But I often have heartburn after my workouts, and I just feel slightly ill most days. My workouts are pretty intense, but I am a 19 year old guy, so I figure I can handle it. Any suggestions about my routine or ideas would be appreciated.

The corner of my second molar in the far back of my mouth chipped off. The specialist (prosthodontist) recommended a gold crown. He said he didn't think there was enough room for my bite to allow a porcelain crown since my molars are very short and the molar above it supererupted from my first unsuccessful porcelain crown being off for 3 years after it kept falling off. Is he correct that sometimes there is not enough height on molar teeth to support a porcelain crown or that there isn't enough room in the bite for a porcelain crown? He also said that I barely have any tooth structure remaining and he would have to remove even more tooth structure to fit on a porcelain crown. I don't like the idea of having gold in my mouth when the rest of my teeth are white. Is gold my only option if there's not enough room on my molar for a porcelain crown? Would trying to place a porcelain crown in my situation be too risky?
