i know that you can get cancer from heating up plastic, like in a microwave, but can you get it from freezing plastic, like in a freezer. ????

I backed out of the ECT treatments last week. I already know the risk and the benefits of ECT. I was scheduled for the treatment and I got scared. I've been on so many medications and years of therapy and now I'm faced with ECT. My question is about alternatives to ECT. I know that ECT is a long commitment. 3 to 6 months of treatments and once a month after that to keep the depression in check. I've heard good results and I heard bad results. Why is the treatments so long? Even with good results, the success rates are still low (but higher than medications). The down side is memory side effects.

I work in Admin for an earthworks company, now the opertations manager, who is not my boss, is such a horrible person to me and the other staff in the office. As i am only 18 and been here less than i year he think he is so much better than me. i use to fight back when he was on one of his tantrums but now i just cant be bothered. As i am trying not to loose my job over him i am really really trying to do my best to keep it. Everything that goes wrong he will blame on me, abuse me (verbaly) and then lie to the boss about it saying that i did it all wrong, when i can clearly prove i did not have anything to do with it. He will continue to stuff up and stab me and everyone in the office in the back, and for some reason my boss continues to believe and stick by him. What am i doing wrong. I do not want to leave becuase it is good money and i am learning a lot here. If you can give me advice on what to do or anything please, this is making me so sick and stressed!

I've been using the whitening pre-brush rinse that listerene makes, as I was concerned about the dye in others staining my teeth. Does Listerene, or other mouthwash, run a risk of damaging your enamel when used prolonged periods of time at the recommended twice a day?

Do you know any other useful facts regarding mouthwash that others may not be aware of?

Hello! I just got my spacers on today for braces. I was just wondering, do they usually put the bands on teeth that have crowns on them, I would think this would damage the crown, but they put the spacers on either side of a tooth I have a crown on, will it be ok?

So I just started "Doche" and I heard that it was really good, so that's why I started. But now I was reading and it is actually really bad for you. Can anyone please tell me the benifits for doing this? And how often you should use it? Also I heard to just use water every day? Thanks

I've been on birth control for 2 months and was wondering if you could get pregnant while you were taking the reminder pills. I didnt know since they are just "blank" pills instead of the "active" pills.

I believe I have a mild form of depression and am always in a terrible mood. I did a quick research to find that St. John's may be helpful. I look on vitatmin shoppe's website and found this. Is St. John's wort helpful, or are there other products out there that you would recommend more? If you do recommend St. John's would you recommend the vitamin shoppe brand or do you have another one in mind? Thanks in advance.

Ok, I just started a computer job and now my right hand tingles and shakes sometimes. Its like I've lost control of the muscles. It doesn't hurt and it doesn't necessarily stop me from doing my job but I was curious as to what the medical community thinks of this or if it's something that some hand strengthening exersizes will fix. I love my job and don't want to give it up, but if this is something that will only get worse, like carparal tunnels (spelling?) then I would also like to know how to fix it. Thank you to any and all answers, all information is appreciated.
