Given how much evidence there is that smoking tobacco is dangerous to your health and can kill you eventually, do you think that smoking is a slow way of commiting suicide? I do. Smoking has been shown to give you Lung Cancer, as well as other respiratory problems such as Emphysema ( let me know if i spelled that wrong). It can also cause other types of cancer. For instance, my grandfather had bladder cancer last year (it is gone now) and the doctors said it was probably because he used to smoke. Also, my cousin's stepfather was also diagnosed with bladder cancer earlier this year, and the doctors said it was probably because he smokes. Smoking has been proven to reduce your lifespan. So, given all this evidence, it seems to me that anyone who smokes must either be suicidal or just plain stupid. What do you think?

Tues evng i fell & sprained my left foot on the top & bottom arch of my foot, no broken bones. It hurts to walk on my foot or even apply pressure on it, I can't even use the ball of my foot for balance. Im not a light weight so carrying my weight around is tiresome worse when using crutches. A) I'm just trying to figure out when can i start walking again and how do i speed up the recov process time aside from the RICE therapy? I live on the 2nd floor of my building so going up and down the stairs takes forever & i cant seem to do it right (B. what is the easiest way to go up & down the stairs).On Sat i was going up & down my stairts using one crutch, i slipped & put all the pressure on my sprained foot. I felt pain & fell over (luckily not down the stairs), but when I looked on the inner arch under my foot it started turning black and blue. C) Did i tear a ligament??? Being an active person on foot, trying to stay home is hard. D) Is there any other way aside from RICE any exercises?

Because meals produce such sleepiness, I want to see what I can do about this! I want to compare the cost (of digestion in kcal) vs. calories and energy gained.

My doc wants me to try taking cerazette a mini-pill as I was getting withdrawal migraines from yasmine. It might sound silly but I went up a bra size on the yasmine and wondered if they would shrink again on cerazette since it doesn't have oestrogen? Don't really want to buy all new bras again!

Thanks in advance.

More info: The addict has problems with Ritalin, Cocaine, some pot about every 5 months. The person has been diagnosed with a sleep disorder, (why the Ritalin) and now wants to kick the RItalin and continue the Ephedra.

Won't it lead to abuse of the Ephedra and lead to other use?

Thanks in advance.
