What can men do to avoid prostate problems? Is it inevitable that all men will have this problem? To doctors; can you give any advice on how to be proactive in avoiding these problems. No smarta** answers please. To young men; you should take this serious. To women; this is the same as if you had found a lump in your breast.

Have you ever heard of the term? I have heard that, sometimes, when people do replantation they get memories and habits that once belonged to the giver of the organ. Do feelings and memories save in our body except from our mind?

I had a hysterectomy 9 weeks ago. My surgery went fine- I thought- then my liver started hurting 2 weeks later. My liver panel was very elevated. Then the numbers returned to normal.... but my liver is still hurting BAD. It is tender. I do not have hepatitis, have had an ultrasound and CAT scan but NOTHING SHOWS UP. At the beginning my liver was enlarged, but not now. I still have pain. The only thing left to try is a liver biospy. Can someone tell me--- who has had one--- how bad it hurts and if i will be sick from the biopsy. THANK YOU.... oh- if you have any ideas what could cause this pain/condition after an operation, please let me know. I am NOT jaundiced. HELP!!!

Well first off, i'm a 15 guy, 5 foot 8 and 127 pounds. it might not way much but you can see fat around my stomach. I've been eating a lot of fruit and vegetables and eat 2 eggs in the morning. and some meat later on. I drink a lot of water too. Well my work out starts off as walking for 20 min, then streching then 150 jumping jacks. then i do 100 sit ups, and about 15 pushups. Then i do different kinds of weights for my arms for about 20 min, Then tomorrow, i'll do the same, except instead of working my stomach and arms out, i'll weight lift for about 10 minutes or so, then do pec flys about 20 times. Then i'll workout my legs. Oh, and what i really want to get is bigger arms, chest and a flat stomach. and all the weights are heavy enough so its hard. Thanks in advance.

About 7 years ago I got a very bad bronchitis. The doctor told me he heard a mild wheeze and wrote me out Albuterol for the neb. He asked if I would rather have an inhaler or neb. I chose for the neb. since we had a machine at home.

Well I somehow got addicted to the nebulizer and Albuterol. I have taken Albuterol almost every 4 hours some days a little less. At least 4-5 a day for 7 years. I have had PFT tests that came back mild, mild, mild asthma. My doctor told me on a scale from 0-10 my asthma is 0-3. I have a peak flow moniter at home as well and I blow good on it for my age and height. But I have been taking the Albuterol for so long that I am afraid that if I try to stop taking it that I will die or have a severe attack or something. I am sooooo worried. I have went like 15 hours without taking any Albuterol before and nothing happened. I just felt short of breath a little.

ive never been officially diagnosed with ashma but i have an allbuterol inhaler and have to use it everyday which i heard isnt that good for you that you shouldnt have to use it everyday..my peakflow measure 400-450 so from what i read thats good but when i breath in i have tightness in my chest.before the tightness in the chest started it was wheezing and shortness of breath pretty much every day.so the thing is i wont be covered by insurance for another 4-6 weeks so i cant get any prescription to get whatever it is under control till then..ive recently had blood tests urine test and a chest xray and nothing was found.i dont know if its from using the inhaler to much or what but does anyone know of any home remedies tea's etc.. that can help with the breathing overall and most important the tightness in the chest..i have an air purifier but im still having these problems so anything anyone can suggest to help me get by for 4-6 weeks that will help and let me not use my inhaler so much

I don't need prescription or reading glasses but feel like my eyes get strained when staring at the computer for long periods----and it shows in their appearance. So now I am thinking of investing in a pair of no-glare glasses. I have seen the amber shaded ones, ugly but are they effective?

I have a really gassy stomach and it is kinda embarrassing, I need to do something, I don't have to go to the bathroom.

I am at work, and I don't think I could possibly spray any more perfume before my cube is drowned with methonal and abundance of perfume.

I know it sounds gross but we all get it.

Any quick remedies?

i am on the depo injection and the moment, and no longer feel that it is right for me. i have been on the pill before, and the reason i stopped taking it was because it was giving me migranes and headaches. i think it was called microgynon. what pill are you on and how are you finding it?

I wanna do the Leamonade diet to jump start my weightloss. Unfortunately I know my mom wont agree with it because of how active I am and how often I play hockey.

So I was wonder would it still work if I only ate one meal a day and worked off the calories with hockey and hitting the gym?

Suggestions on hiding it from her?

I suffer from depression and I have had suicidal thoughts in the past. My best friend has no concept of "emotional intelligence". I've tried, without success, to get him to understand what it feels like to be hopeless. I can't get him beyond his belief that people who commit or even consider suicide are cowards and weak. Why is it so inconceivable to him that someone could be in so much pain, they feel they have no other options? While I'm not pro-suicide, I can relate to the feeling of hopelessness that precedes the action. I can also understand how someone could convince himself it is the right (or only) option for him. Why don't "sane" people understand this?
