I have controlled high blood pressure with meds and was told, by a friend, to use epsom salt in my bath for sore achy joints but someone else told me I shouldnt do that, even though my blood pressure is controlled with meds. Does anyone know anything regarding epsom salt bath soaks and high blood pressure??

I recently read that anorexia can cause infertility. Is that true? If so, is it permanent?

I'm going travelling for a year, Kenya, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. I have a list of about 10 vacinations it is recommended I get, but I'm the type of person who does not even like to take asprin. What vacinations are crucial and what can I do without? I don't want to risk my health. My doctors surgery doesn't offer travel advice.

Along with darkening, I also feel like thousands of ants running all over my face. Only after a few seconds of standing still with closed eyes, I am able to move.

This is there since my childhood. The blood test says I don't have any abnormal size of blood cells, but my RBC count equals female-values. May be I was on iron medication so the problem wouldn't show up immediately in tests. But my iron levels keep coming down after rising. I have felt most healthy and most fresh and energetic, and also free of the above symptoms, when I had the most RBC and haemoglobin count.

I also feel completely fatigued the whole day, and have light-headedness all the time. I feel colder than others.

Doctors say the RBC count has to be too low for any kind of anaemia to be present. But I want to disagree.

This situation is preventing me from building my body (LOL!), as also from numerous other tasks.

Thank you.

Does anyone know of medical studies or credible web sites that show evidence that a high protein diet is beneficial for fibro sufferers?

My friend has been on disability for fibro for several years and has recently had his high protien diet allowance revoked. He has an appeal coming up and any info in support of the benefits would be helpful.

Without the allowance he is basically going to have to live off mac and cheese and hot dogs which I am sure is going to undo all the improvement made in the last few years. (Basically from weeks of bed ridden periods to almost to the point now that he could start seeking the right job!...of course the high protien diet is combined with plenty of stretching and weight training.)

My ex-husband has sole physical and legal custody of our 14 year old daughter. He moved due to job reasons and his mother is helping to take care of her.

I live in a different state than them. I went to stay with her for about 3 weeks. She wanted me to stay until the semester was over.

Now, I feel that I don't deserve anything good and care more for myself than her. I should have stayed and taken care of her.

However, my ex and his mother were influencing my decisions a lot and I could not really be her mother. I was also staying in his house. They will not let me live in peace separately.

I am now hearing from my ex-husband that I "ruined my child" and that she will never see me for the rest of my life. I feel that I did not do my duty as a mother and she will hate me for the rest of her life. I don't deserve anything good and instead punishment.
