He asked me to take him to the hospital this past Sunday. He is still there and it is Tues. eve. Since Sunday, his heart rate, which has ALWAYS been low (bradycardia) usually 50bpm, has been in the 30's. The doctor ordered EKG, blood and stress test - they came back negative. An echocardiogram was ordered, but our regular doctor's office keeps faxing the report to the wrong hospital, so we don't have the results yet. Today he had a carotid artery Doppler test as well as a chest MRI. We don't have results yet. He doesn't feel faint today, but he has a heaviness in his chest and since yesterday, he said it has morphed into feeling like a burning inside his chest. They gave him an injection for gastric relief- the nurse thought perhaps the burning is heartburn. He is in good shape, not overweight, does not smoke, drinks a little, works very hard.
What could it be? So far, they don't know. Can anyone hazard a guess as to what it is? Tomorrow they want to do a catheterization.

I feel very uncomfortable having a male gynocologist simply because I can't stand the idea of a strange man putting his hands on my breasts or even worse in my vagina. It's just too offputting. How do you feel? I know some women actually prefer males.

I am 15 years old and im intrested in getting muscular, i have never really worked out consistently only like once a month if that. I am gonna start working out more often and am thinking of using creatine, my questions are:

Should i workout for a week or two then use creatine or go rate into the first workout using creatine?

What are some good products?

Will my health be in concern if i still follow the guidelines of using creatine?

Is it fine to use more then one creatine products in workouts?

Weight - 234
Height - 5ft 9in
Age - 24
Sex - Male

Starting two weeks ago, I have been exercising every morning for an hour and a half. M - F I run around the track (6 times) at the fastest pace I can without stopping . The other time is spent walking to and from the track (1 mile). Coming back is quite steep since I live in a hilly area.

On Sundays, I go for a 7 mile walk around the area, which includes some steep hills.

At the same time, I have cut my calories in take to about 1,500 calories per day. According to websites, to maintain my weight, I have to eat 3,300 calories per day.

--Breakfast - Special K (1 cup) and half a cup of Soy Milk, and 2/3 a cup of orange Juice.
--Snack = Kelloggs K bar (90 cal)
--Lunch - Salad with light Italian dressing, or Chinese food with no rice, just vegies and non-fried chicken (ex: kung pao).
--Dinner - Chicken Noodle Progresso Soup (220 cal) and a lean cuisine (250)
--Snack = Kelloggs K bar (90 cal)
Plus I drink about 9 bottles of water a day

I have had the most HORRIBLE experiences with doctors. I won't go into details, but I received a really bad injury during a surgery last year and do have a pending lawsuit. I do not feel this is any business of the new doctor in another state that I am going to see. Any one know anything about what questions can and cannot be asked by a new doctor and where I could obtain more information from? Thanks in advance for your answers!

My 14 yr. old son got a filling earlier on one of his back teeth. He is now experiencing intermittent pain that he says, "feels like when you have a filling and bite down on aluminum foil" This is NOT when he bites down just waves of pain out of nowhere. He says he heard one of the assistants ask the Dentist "aren't you supposed to do so and so?" and he said, "don't worry about it" Makes me wonder. Does anyone know what this pain could be?

I have started an exercise program in which I've been doing the bike at the gym for 30 minutes for 3-4 days per week. Recently I added weights and shorter intervals of cardio...my problem is that at 216 lbs. I'm really tired and although I feel I should work out for more time I don't know if that is unrealistic. Everyone says that it is good just to exercise but I want to see real results. I started last month at 222 lbs. but in the big picture that is not a significant loss and I am on a good eating plan. Should I force myself to work out for a longer period of time? I feel badly about it. Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated. I can't afford a personal trainer. How can I overcome that tired, desparate feeling? I've been overweight for 3 years now but at this point I want to lose it.
