Health - 22 July 2007

I have been fighting with wingworms on my little girl for about 3 months now. I took her to the pedi and they gave me cream and antibiotics by mouth. THEY ARE ONLY ON HER BUTT AND TOP BACK PART OF LEGS. I do not understand why they want go away- I keep a VERY clean house and no pets! Any suggestions anyone? If you plan on leaving some rude inmature comment then DONT waste your time! Thanks everyone else!

So my doctor said I need to loose weight. All he said was to workout, and decrease my eating a little bit by decreasing my insulin since insulin drives your hunger. I've done it, but it's not working. Is there any good, healthy, beneficial ways to loose the weight? What are the benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar? Does anyone know any "cheap" ways to loose the excess weight and how? Please feel free to tell me your SUCCESSFUL experiences!

My sons father is giving him GNC Pro Performance 1850 weight gainer. He thinks he doesn't weigh enough. He is 4ft. 3in and weighs 54 lbs. This weight gainer has 1850 calories in each serving and I believe he said he was making him drink it 3 times a day. He is at a healthy weight according to Webmd calculations.There are 99 mg of cholesterol and 1645mg of potassium in this stuff. It just doesn't sound right. I made an appoinment with the doctor for him but, its not for a couple of weeks.

could this be a brain tumor...or just migrains?

When I was little my mum used to say I had to lay in bed even if I couldn't sleep, because resting is the same as sleeping. Is this true?

well my dad. he has said for about that last four or five years that he feels the presence of a lump in his throat. some days it comes on pretty bad, some days its gone completely. he rarely has any trouble swollowing food. like corn chips sometimes do. he never has any blood in his spit, he has not lost any weight but he went to the doctor and they found a small lump under thyroid on an ultrasound. the doctor didnt even know why he went into the ultrasound and was so supriesed to find the lump UNDER THE THYROID. he still told him not really to worry, but they are going to do a catscan just in case, he hasnt even set a date yet. my dad is 50 and has acid refulux pretty bad, he has hernias. he has all the symptoms of gerd like the acid, the mucis in stuff, they differences in the days and dependancies on what he eats. he doesnt really feel bad. you think that if it was cancer that he would feel bad of having a bad lump for over a year. it really isnt getting much worse. its not cancer

I have to be up in 5 hours for work and for some reason I love to sit up in my bed on the internet or reading a book - anything except sleeping - because I can!!
It makes me suffer the next day but I love to feel in control of something!

Anyone else do this?

A little while ago, i had an issue with anger and self mutilation. I had been making a ton of progress to stop, talking to my family and a school councilor.
The one day I had cuts all over me. But i honestly didn't and still don't remember doing it.

So I had talked to a woman at a teen health organization, and she was asking me a few questions. You know, Family, school..health. She asked me if I had ever been diagnosed with a mental illness. But it wasn't just one of those that was part of the routine...her tone told me she thought i was crazy.

I guess I've always thought, in the back of my mind, I was...shall we say "different"..I guess i just never wanted to react upon it..but lately, I'm starting to think she's right.

What do you think?

* this country was founded on CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES - yet they have the gall to tell us we should keep our beliefs out of OUR OWN schools and judicial system?

What about liberals telling our students "Watch Brokeback Mountain or don't graduate?"

If you dislike the beliefs we have - STAY OUT of our country, move to another, or show respect.

I keep doing stupid things, bumping into stuff, dropping things, stuff like that. I had a little head ache a couple times but I don't think that has anything to do with it. I'm always a little disoriented, but not like I've been these past few days. What should I do?

After smoking for 2 years, I quit in August 2006. I relapsed for a few days in April 2007. Now it is July, and I relapsed again today. Even after almost a year of not smoking, I was still craving a cigarette. Will it ever end?

I just got a job as an assistant manager at a retail drug store. I'm on my feet all day running from place to and hauling boxes off of the shelves. Since I only live 1.5 miles away I decided to ride my bike or walk to work instead of driving. I've had this job for 5 weeks and because of policies and the hassle to prevent theft, to avoid it I always go to the local fast food restaurants for lunch. The odd thing is I've lost 10 pounds since I started this job and my pants are starting to feel loose. I guess me being on my feet all day and riding my bike to work cancels out all the fast food calories I consume. Since weight isn't a problem will I still develope cholestrol, blood pressure etc. problems when I'm older because of all this fast food I consume?

I have always been fat ever since i was young. I have always been the tallest, and biggest out of them all, even though they are shorter than me. I always wanted to be small like them and short like them.It seem like they fit into anything, and I don't. I guess this is the reason why I always get hurt from people words.
