Is anyone familiar with epiploic appendagitis (not appendicitis)? It's somewhat rare, but I had it about 1 1/2 years ago. I had some pains today that made me wonder if one would be prone to repeat attacks. I've read about it but I didn't see anything about it recurring.

I work at a restaurant, where we have a smoking section. Unfortunately, the majority of my coworkers smoke too! During our morning and pre-shift meetings, I'm usually stuck in a small area around a whole bunch people smoking. I'm concerned that this could be detrimental to my health! What's the best course of action for me to take to stay safe? I don't really think I can approach people about it, because all the managers are smokers themselves, and I seem to be the only person it bothers!

I've been eating Subways daily for the past two week. It's a foot long tuna on wheat. Lettus, tomatos, and onions are included. Is this ok for me to stay healthy? I'll try to force myself to eat my fruits and veggies if needed.

My doctor had me on Norco (10/325mg) and recently switched me to Darvocet (650). Will there be a substantial difference in the two? The Norco REALLY makes me feel high and I don't like it. Thanks!

Why is it that when you talk to someone and trust someone they always end up leaving??? And when they leave you feel alone and forgotten about and like you don't matter and that you are a piece of trash

I personally thing that big pharmaceutical companies are profiting off of fear of cancer and the American publics willingness to believe anything on TV. Why are they pushing this vaccine to be mandatory everywhere? could it be that they are making big bucks off of 3 shots, each costing aprox. $150?? the FDA may have approved it, but it has only been tested for apox. 4 years.... could this vaccine actual cause cancer itself? no one knows and yet we are giving it to 9yo girls... IF the fed gov't makes it mandatory everywhere than the pharm. co. no longer has ANY responsibility for health problems caused by the drug in the future... perhaps this is why they have such an excessive marketing campaign? they don't even know how long this drug is effective...it may only last for 4 years... and it only protects against HPV (and only 4 strands of out of hundreds)... you can still get cervical cancer many other ways...

anyways what do you think? yes or no to gardasil

The question is pretty self explanatory....
I've heard so mean pros about both

most people i talk to say that endurance running is the best
but a lot of articles i have read said that running in intervals is the best because it keeps the metabolism up longer or something.

my goal is to lose a lot weight, i know diet stuff.

^^
cheers.

I went to ER last night for severe eye pain and was diagnosed with a cornial abrasion. The doctor prescribed oxycodone and told me to take one every 8 hours. The problem is, after about 4 or 5 hours, the pain comes back full force. Is it okay to take something like a light dose of Tylenol or something similar? Or should I cut one of my prescribed pills in half? I called the doctor who treated me. She wasn't in and the rushed doctor I spoke to only told me to follow the instructions and hung up before I could ask her about OTC medicine. Can you help me?

The doc often tells me that my BP is high during medical check up but when i tested my BP at home using a digital BP meter, it never exceeds 140/80. I tried my best to relax during the med checks but it does not work. I have a pre employment med check coming up soon and i am worried sick that i will fail it due to high BP. How can i overcome this?
