I am having the EMG test for carpal tunnel in one hand and wrist. Does this hurt? I am fine with needles but the electrical shocks do not sould too spiffy. Has anyone had this done in their hand? On a scale of 1-10 (7 being a bee sting) how bad does this test hurt? I thought it was a Nerve conduction test but they said EMG. A friend of mine said it was a ----. I want more examples.

I'm listening to a transcription of a police report and an EMT is saying a word that sounds like "a-sicily" and referencing a patient flatlining. What is this word, any ideas?

I would like to know if you had an ovarian cyst and it went away did you have pain for a long time afterwards. Also, where was the pain at? Was it next to your belly button or just in different places.
I was diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. About a month ago the doctor said that it was disolved, I'm still having pain in my right side and next to my belly button.

Any information you could provide me with would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I want something i can ingest that will help me to build up muscle, but not risk harsh side effects on other parts of my body. I'm below average weight and want faster results from my work out for better muscle tone. Don't suggest something like steroids cuz i obviously dont want something that is actually bad for me despite its ability to build muscle. Please leave your suggestions or a product you have used that has shown good results!

My gym teacher says losing weight is simple... The more calories you burn a day than you eat a day is how you lose weight.

Well if I eat a breakfast lunch and dinner that equals around 1200 calories... Does that mean I have to burn that much?

Jesus... I mean one slice of bread has 80 calories...

So... I'm confused. Enlighten me.

I pick up my RX tomorrow AM, hence the urgency on this; I need to let the drugstore know my preference! 500 mg. is the pill dosage. The pharmacist was very vague when I asked; he said "Oh, the brand (non-generic) is about twice as strong". That just doesn't sound right to me. Your help is urgently needed and my thanks in advance!

My brother was on the track team for 2 years he told me it's a good idea.
I think that's a very stupid idea because you can hurt yourself.

the why is the US population booming now when 50 years ago 75% of the country were smokers? Is that 450 page Surgeon General report that none of us can get through, let alone understand, just another bunch of goobley goop to allow the Govt to control what we do?

It would seem like we'd be dropping like flies since so many people smoked in the last couple of generations and we were all exposed to it.

I don't mess around with anyone. I take care of his ex lovers little evil spawn. And I know her mother is a Carrier of MRSAI was told that anyone who has MRSA can pass it on just drinking from my cup or glass. This child is also a carrier just like her mother But everyone is mad now because I told them the doctor told me this woman can spread what she has. Just from eating off my dishes and using my bathroom is this raelly true. I am really scared who else she could be spreading this to. Because she lives with my son and his wife and 3 small children.
