Health - 7 May 2007

On one of my feet the skin is dry, thick, and excessively hard. I don't experience so much burning, a little itching, but the main problem is the thickening of the skin. I know there's something wrong bc my other foot is not having the same symptoms. I have tried giving myself an at home pedicure once a week using one of those skin scrapers with the razor blade to shave off the thick skin on the bottom of my foot. However by the middle of the next week the skin has thickened and hardened again....is this Athlete's Foot? I notice all the symptoms of Athlete's Foot include peeling, burning, itching, and cracking...not thickening of the skin. Could I have another foot condition and if so how do I treat it? Or if this is Athlete's Foot, what is the best way to treat it once the condition has gone on for a long time?

I had my gallbladder ultrasounded a few years back and was told then that there were no stones and it seemed to be working ok. Not 100% but enough that it shouldn't be removed. When I get hungry, I get a sharp stabbing pain or a burning sensation under my right rib. I sometimes have horrible chest pains that radiate into my back and throat area at the same time. Usually when I eat the pain goes away and then after about 45 minutes to 1 hour it will return, not so sharp at first. But then it will kinda come and go until I get really hungry. Does that sound like it's my gallbladder? The only other worry I have is that I take to many OTC pain medications. I have had 4 knee surgeries and suffer from headaches, so it seems like I am constantly taking Tylenol for something. I worry that it's maybe my liver instead of my gallbladder. Any suggestions?

I had quite a long day writing up my assignment for an end-of-year module. I've been awake since 10:30 when I had my breakfast and settled down to work. I hadn't eaten all day until about 15 minutes ago, but I noticed when I stood up, I had a head rush and had to sit back down for a minute. Also, I was trembling. My breakfast was a cup of coffee, (with two spoonfuls of sweetner) with two buttered crumpets.
I want to know what happened, why was I like this? I'm still kind of trembling now; my hands are all shakey.
I'm average height, around 168cm, and my weight is around 70kg.

My wife has had the gastric bypass surgery. I know that when a bypass patient takes pills usually they go right through your system and your body doesen't have enough time to absorb the medication. Now if she were to take the Plan B pills will this be a problem or should her body be able to absorb enough to take "care of it."

I'm not talking about a pinch that goes away. I am talking about it feeling like a "nerve" has been pinched, which can be felt outside the body on the surface of the pelvis, and radiates down the left front leg. Doesn't go away for some time. Am afraid of getting anymore cervical biopsies. Happens every time.

UPDATE: Have already asked doctors who have no explanation. Looking for someone who has heard. THANKS FOR RESPONSES ABOUT THAT, ANYWAY. SMILE SMILE

How many months can you do this for?

I've taken 2 back to back now as I get excruating periods since my pill got changed as the one I was one got discontinued, anyway my doctor(s) don't believe me and I just find it easier to skip a couple.

But how many can you skip? I've skipped 1 so far due to holiday but I have my exams over the next one (very important ones) and am thinking of doing it again ... is it okay?

I am 22, had painful periods to age 14 then the pill sorted it, changing it 18 months ago brought them back (worse than ever really) and I've had it changed again since then with no difference *sigh*

*Alright so I have put on a few LB's since last summer, and I was just curious...what exercises do I do and what machines at the gym should I be using to slim down my:

1. Inner and outer thighs
2. Tone my butt
3. Get rid of my little love handles I got going on right now...(yuck)....

.It's like everything I eat, goes straight to my thighs-butt and belly area(s).

.....haha...I do have a membership at a gym, and yes I do go everyday and I also have been cutting out the soda and fast food and any other junk I have been known to eat.

....ummm...yeah well I'm only 5'3 and I weigh like 130 right now, and eeew...since I'm not tall enough to balance out my weight, I look "fat" just because I'm shorter you know?
..

well I want to get down to 100-110 lbs. before summer rolls around...cuz I need to look good in a swimsuit.

.& guys please don't tell me to:
1. Throw up
2. Quit eating

*Thank you............
