I have three kids with each on my blood pressure went up but after birth if was always back to normal. About 6 months ago my blood pressure went up to 140/105 doctor put me on blood pressure meds had it rechecked it did not help, he changed the medication the last time I went in it was 132/100. Shouldn't he find out why it went up rather than just prescribe me meds? Where should I go?

I weigh about 210, I use to work out but I haven't worked out in a while when one day I happened to hurt my left shoulder from doing push ups early in the morning right when i woke up. As a result my left arm is really weak and now I am a lot weaker than i used to be. Soon I am going to play football as a lineman and I feel like I'm the weakest guy right now. So i want to know the effective way of making muscle mass and strength

I know it is done and I know it works! Now I have to reference my general knowledge. Does anyone know where I can find a reputable reference about alternating acetaminophen and ibuprofen in a child to reduce fever? Quick! I am working on an assignment for pharmacy school. I was suppose to have it turned in at 10:00, but I can't find anything about this.... HELP!!!

during cpr, blood gases are drawn and the results are
FIO2=1.0
pH=7.15
PACO2=55 mmHg
HCO3=12mEq/l
PaO2=210 mmHg

What action would you take to correct the acid base shown here?

A. increase the rate of ventilation
B. Decrease the FIO2
C. Administer sodium bicarbonate intravenously
D. Add positive end-expiratory pressure to the ventilation system

I am guessing the answer would be D but not sure. Can someone please explain what the answer would be and why?

I am a straight A student in high school, and I always work very hard at school. I listen very well in class, and I try to do whatever homework I can before I go home. However, when I do get home, I feel like not doing anything, and just want to relax. I've been staying up later than ever because of this. How do I get rid of this bad habit of mine? I'm procrastinating even as I'm writing this question, and I haven't done my math homework yet.

For those of you who use tampons do you use a pad or liner with the tampon just in case you still leak? Are you supposed to leak every now and then even if youre using a tampon because sometimes I do just a little bit and I'm wondering if its normal or if the tampon isn't in right or something.

What is your experience with this? Thanks

My job requires me to be on my feet all day for about 6 hours 5 times a week. Since working there for 8 months I have lost about 5kg or so.Although this isn't much it's because I havent really been eating very well. Can I lose weight without exercise, by eating 1200 cals a day? my diet doesn't include fast food or fatty stuff whatsoever. I'd loike to lose at least .5 of a kilo a week that's a little bit more than a pound think? Thanks

I'm 14 years old and i think i have OCD. My parents dont belive me..my friends do though.


some of the things i do, i like to avoide the colored tiles in school, and if i touch one with my left foot, i gota touch the same color with my right foot.
I got to wake up at 7:01 every mornin before school
I hate even numbers; i gota have an odd number for the T.V. volume, or else i freak out ( i dont know why )
When ever i'm putting away the dishes it has to go in this order: Cups, bowls, plates, silverware.
Oh and i hate my room messy.. i gota keep it clean
Or have to do a certain number of times so nothing bad will happen or something.


I have alot more but it would be too much to list. Do i have OCD? And if i do, how do i get my parents to belive me?
