Health - 30 September 2007

My wife had back surgery on Thursday and last night she was having some chest pains. They did an E.K.G. and every three hours they have taken blood to test. What does this show and why does it have to be taken this many times?

Is anyone aware of large tonsils being a problem with a child of age 3s speech?

My son has permanently inflamed tonsils and has been on numerous courses of antibiotics for septic tonsilitis, however there has been no redction in size.

We were reffered to ENT and as my son rarely complains of pain they said that there's no need to take them out.

My main concern is his speech, however ENT tell us that this wouldn't be effecting his speech. We was reffered a second time as our GP was of the same opinion as us that this would effect his speech, however after seeing ENT for a second time they said the same witout even taking a look in his mouth. They seem more interested in what amount of pain he is in.

Whilst there he had a hearing test to rule out glue ear as there were signs of glue in one ear, however the tests came back ok. We were told that glue comes and goes as the child grows up, so we have another appointment in December to see if gromits are needed.

My 14 month old daughter usually wakes up every morning with a stuffed up nose. September has been particularly bad as she can't breathe out of her nose. Is this allergies? If so, why is seemingly unaffected during the day? Any ideas as to how I can help her? She has been waking really early these days and can not seem to get back to sleep because of it.

I feel i have something wrong with myself, as i always seem to read too much into something or think too much about it.

Usually it's something happens and in my mind i blow it way out of proportion so i believe it is like that. Other times ill think of a thing that's happened and wonder about all the different paths it can take, usually the things id like to happen but arent likely, i then believe in that despite the fact it wouldnt happen.

Both things always end up with me getting down. I've been told i have a creative imagination and i think thats probably the problem with all this.

well i basically lost 20 pounds on a 1200 calorie diet in a year and was able to totally resist all the yummy sweet things, but now that i'm 95 pounds at 5 feet (i was 90 last week), i've been binging like crazy and i CANT resist sweet food. god, i just ate a whole container of SUGAR...i feel like **** and i just started purging a little.i've done it about 5 times and just a little, like i didn't empty the contents of my stomach..but...it doesn't even get rid of the calories, right? Why the hell do I have such cravings?

Go to this websites and read what they say what the HPV vaccine has done to people and could possibly do to you.http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/71918.php, http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2007/may/07052501.html, and http://www.newscientist.com/channel/sex/mg18624954.500.

These are some of the websites. Tell me after reading this would you get the HPV vaccine? I certainly would not.

ive become wrapped inside my own world (and if im a whiney little punk then so be it) i dont know what is real now i know ther is damage but im not shure i even want to be fixed and i cannot be fixed. (well first off you are sevearly depressed, try getting some professional help) ok ill try that some day thank you. the thing is ive been stripped bare and i couldnt give a crap less if i had any friends. (well you wouldnt have brought it up if you didnt want friends, why are you going in riddles?) i just want peace. i want my head to stop. (then do somthing for yourself and stop rejecting your logic, well maby you are just too logical and too smart for your own good either way you had better do somthing and fast because this ideology is getting old josh and its not doing you any good not now and ceartainly not in the long run.) i just want to settle down into a state of relative comfort i need stability DO YOU UNDERSTAND?! there was never any.

so i have irregular periods and my doctor decided to put me on "the pill", but there is one thing i dont understand about taking them. she told me to start taking them the day she prescribed them being that she didnt know when my next period would be. so here is the question: Since i dont know when my next period is...how do i go about taking the inactive pills? if i come on my period during the second week of taking "the pill", do i skip to the inactive ones or not?
***************any help is greatly
