I have an elliptical machine at home that I use. I have very low motivation to workout, but I make myself use it at least 3 times a week for 20 min. I want another exercise that I can do at home that will actually tone up my body so I can see some results. I do like to dance, does anyone have any suggestions on a good program or DVD that might involve dancing and will tone me?

The last time i had blood taken i had 3 vial things from each arm and went really dizzy,. I had to lay don at the hospital for an hour but on the way to the car i fainted and my grandma caught me. That was 4 years ago and i have been needing to have some really important blood tests taken but i freak out completely. I have had cognitive therapy which didnt help at all, i've tried everything i can think of but i am in a blind panic as i really need this doing.
The phobia is totally irrational as i am not afraid of needles or blood, just having blood taken. Nobody understands how extreme this phobia is they think i am overreacting but just the thaught of it makes me feel really queasy.

I know i need to have it done but they need to test all of my hormones which means taking lots of blood in one go.

Can anyone help me figure out how to deal with this please??

Has anyone got a similar severe phobia?

Thanx for reading this i hope someone can help.

My girlfriend has been diagnosed with a malignant mass at the base of her skull (it's attacking her brain stem). They performed the first surgery in January, that went fine untill they tried Chemo Therapy, which tried to shut down her CNS (they later found out she can't handle any radiation therapy or anything like that) they did a second surgery to see if they could finish it off and they got most of it but now it's back and soon it's going to take away her motor control. Is there anyway to stop it/destroy it/get rid of it? Mind you she can't have Proton Therapy, Gamma Rays, or anything such as these.

My husband has terrible foot odor. What kind of doctor is there that can help him with it? He is really bummed out about it and want's me to help him find a cure. Are there any remedies that you know of that might help him? He is a truck driver so he is driving all day. They do not smell in the morning but when he gets home they are terrible. On the weekends, they do not smell at all. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

i have been constipated for a week now. I've eaten every food i could think of that would help me go. I drank soda, iced tea, and everything that would make me go. However i am still not going. I even tried those glycerine supposotories and they didn't accomplish anything either! Does anyone know any other things that could make me unconstipated. Its a pretty painful thing i'm going through here so any help is deeply appreciated!

ok, for about 5 years now i have had a very bad problem with my ears plugging because of ear wax not being able to come out, when i use this stuff called debrox it sometimes fixes it, but not always, anyways, well when my problem started to get bad stopped going under water because i wa saffriad water would get stuck beind the wax, so just yesterday i told my self that it was all in my head, that water might have nothing or liitle to do with my ear plugging, so yesterday for the first time in about 4 years i strated swimming under water, nothing happened, everytime i came up the water came out, but for some reason when ever i go barly under it feels like i have 20 feet of water pressing on my ears. is it because i dont remember water thet well??? anyways my question is, do you know if in fact it is safe for me to be underwater?? and why my ears have so much pressure on them when im hardly under it. sorry if tis was cofussing

Recently I went to the doctor because I could not move my left hand. My wrist and fingers were in pain, and so was the space between thumb and the other fingers. I have Raynaud's syndrome, so my entire hand is a lot more sensitive now and it turns blue whenever it wants, whether I have gloves on or not.

My other wrist is giving me the same problems but not to that extent. And now it seems like my knees and ankles are always hurting.

The doctor prescribed mobic and ordered some blood tests, but the mobic has done nothing for the pain. Ibuprofen did a better job but I have to take it continuously, and I have a bad stomach that requires me to take nexium. Is there anything I can try that's over the counter for arthritis. I've tried icy hot and bengay, also I take a whole batch of supplements including glucosamine, vitamin D, omega 3s, and prenatal vitamins.

I'm in my early 20s, not pregnant, and whenever I bring these issues up to my doctor, she just writes me a new prescription.

Five weeks ago I was 11.8 - 11.10 stones. It has been about five weeks now since I started excersising for about 90 minutes a day (45 min morning and 45 min evening). For the first two weeks my weight stayed the same, but now that I checked I weigh at 11.5 stones. Am I doing okay? I am asking because the first two weeks I didn't lose much, what is the reason behind this? I feel a lot better, and I have more energy, but to be honest I look the same.
