Health - 30 March 2007

All started about 5 days ago with all the mentioned problems all over my body. I've had bad cramps on both my legs and i can barely walk proper, both legs are weak and i walk like an old man.

Exactly 2 weeks ago on a Friday I consumed a lot of alcohol and I got alcohol poisoned, after from Sat to Tue I had problem with my digestive system and I had was diarrhea all day long with only 1 day going to the bathroom 15 times.

After I got well from Wed to Sun (5days) I went out every night drinking and from Monday I started to get cramps/twitching/spasms. It's been 4 days now and nothing seems to go away.

What I think is that during the 1st week that I got the diarrhea my body minerals ran out and the body system was on recovery but again I played around and it became worse now. So what I'd say the body is low on minerals which I'm having Vitamins, Potassium, and Calcium ever since but things haven’t got any better. Both legs are weak and it's even hard to climb up any stairs.

My husband's pain pill addiction is ruining our family. He sometimes spends his entire pay check on them. My heart is broken I love him and I know he is better that this. I can't seem to get him to understand that the whole family is suffering. We are soon to loose everything because he won't help me pay the bills. He has a herniated disk in his neck and gets 4 7.5 lorcets a day but, he has been selling them and buys10's (off the street) sometimes taking up to 17 10's a day. His surgery is scheduled for 4.13.2007. Should I tell his doctor of his addiction? He is not the person I married. We have 2 girls and this is not good for them. My nerves are always shot I can't sleep or eat. Is there anyone out there that can help me? Maybe someone that is or has been going through the same thing. I know he can overcome this and he has told me that he is only taking 4 a day now but, he lies to me so much I don't even know him anymore. Please help someone

Hey everyone, I've been to the Doctors today and he's told me that I'm suffering from severe depression... he put me on anti-depressants... so why is it that today I've been in the weirdest moods ever? One minute I'm laughing and joking, and then I feel like tellin' everyone to leave me alone...

I have been diagnosed of having BPH. I have this condition for about ten years now. I take saw palmetto and pygeum africanum. They seem to be working because my urination, while of low "caliber", has not gone worse. But I still experience "dribbling" at the end of my urination. Can you recommend other effective supplements?

I just got back from a school camp in the mountains and on the bus back, I felt the kind of pressure in my ears you would feel on a plane. I could barely hear anything and now, 8 hours later, my left ear can barely hear anything. I can usually clear it up myslef by swallowing hard or blowing my nose, but nothing's working. All that helps is if i tilt my head to one side, or upwards, it clears up. As soon as my head is back in normal position, it stuffs up again. It also hurts a bit..is it an infection?

Can you please tell me what's wrong??

A student in our school has just had an operation to correct a defect in his lower leg and ankle (he has hemiplegia) and that part is currently wired and bolted into a frame that will be adjusted daily. We, as TAs in our school, have been asked to wheel him about- -in an especially adapted wheelchair-- from lesson to lesson and before they start and end so that the corridors are quiet.
We are really not happy about htis because we feel that should an accident, or incident occur whereby the student is injured, who would be held liable, us or the school?
This arrangement is meant to go on for the next six months. Your thoughts will be appreciated.

I then had really bad diarrhoea but am now vwry worried because it had lots of bright red blood in it. I dont feel much better today, i have been to the loo a few times and the pain is still bad but there isnt much blood now. Should i see a dr? I dont have piles, and havent eaten anything dodgy that i can think of, i'm very worried.

Ok, this is personal opinion, but I think there are worst things in the food industry than trans fats. I mean, they've been in existence for a long time, and I commend those people that made the food industry put labels about trans fats and made the public aware of trans fats. But doesn't the public know about the basic dangers like refined sugar, aspartame, RBGH in the milk supply, and other health risks? What do you think? thanks for your opinions.
