Health - 11 December 2007

I know, I know, a healthy diet and yadda yadda. I got all that. But what I was wanting to know, What is your opinion on the best exercise? What do you think works best? Whether it targets a certain body part or if it's for an all over burn or tone, what is it? Please let me know, Thx!!

She would go home and sleep until 8, wake up and then go back to sleep until she got up for school which she tells me she gets up for at 5:30 (our school starts @ 7:30)
This was in October for about a week It stopped and two weeks ago it started up again for two days monday and tuesday. Then on Thursday we were walking home & she started stumbling and when I asked her if she was ok she said " I can't feel my body" after we walked for a block she said that now she just couldn't feel her legs. Last week in Algebra on friday we were taking notes and her hand froze. It was like it was paralyzed and stiff and cold (but her hands are always cold) We pulled her fingers apart (she was holding a pencil and thats the position they froze in) and then her hand was alright. Since she plays violin i asked her if something was wrong with her bow (it was her bow hand that got stiff) and she said no. Im worried about her she hasn't told anyone but me not even her parents & I'd like to know wats wrong

I got up at 6 am and it is 1:15 pm at this time. I have gone pee 13 times already today. My fluid intake has been 4 cups of coffee and 1 small glass of tea. Is this in the normal average or should I be getting concerned? This has been going on for about 3 months and the only other change I have noticed is that I am more thristy then I used to be as well. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I am a VERY average learning guy when it comes to academics.
I have to study a lot to get A's. I want to be a fireman and I have to get EMT-B certified. I am not worried about doing that.
However, most departments today really want firefighters to be EMT-Paramedic certified. I am thinking of going for this, but I am worried about the schooling. (im sure it can't be like Med school?)
I am also not too good in algebra. So should I take a class to get that down to be a paramedic? Is math needed? I herd its all mostly science and anatomy, biology etc.

All the info you can give, like what a paramedic is responsible for knowing, the degree of difficulty of stuff ill have to learn.
As much info as you can write would be great!

Does wrist movement ever feel the same after the heeling process is complete?? If you have any information on this I would greatly appreciate it, my mom is having surgery in a few days and she's pretty freaked about the whole thing. They will be inserting a permanent plate/screws into her wrist. Her arm is in a half cast right now, and at this time she is wondering what to expect afterwards [IE: 6months/1year/5years/etc] My poor mom :(

I feel so bad for her

Did anyone ever feel someones adams apple. I did .What you do is you both take turns laying your head back really far
and feel it. I noticed a lot of us girls do have it but the size and shape is always different. If you have lets share some stories about it, I have 2 bumps on my neck, the adams apple which is like a point and the bump in the middle of my neck right underneath. Some girls do have the bump in the middle which sticks as far out as the adams apple itself.

I had a tooth ache that seemed to go away. Later that week during the night my muscles started to ache really bad. They feel better but are still feeling stiff and achy. Any ideas on what could be the problem? I mainly hurt in my shoulders, neck and back but my hips are also achy as well. Feels like I could have over done excersizing but I have not exercised.

I had unprotected sex with my guy more than 2 weeks ago (less than a week after my period went off), but I've had this constant odorless clear-whitish discharge ever since. My period is due in a little more than a week, but I don't know what this substance is. What is it and could I be pregnant?

Today I woke up and had severe pain in my neck. I'm assuming it was from the way I was laying. I read that if your pillow is not supporting your head correctly in a side laying position it can strain muscles. My neck hurts so badly now! I hardly can move it and if I move it slightly the wrong way I get this extreme shooting pain from my neck down to my shoulder. Can anyone suggest something I can do to ease the pain? I do not want to see the doctor for just a strained neck, and i already took Advil, so I'd appreciate suggestions other than those. Thanks much!

A 60 year old man had a road rage fit and got the other driver to pull over ... he went up to the window, giving him the finger and challenging a man half his age to a fistfight.

The 30 year old man looked frightened, and would not step out of his vehicle.

The 60 year old man is bragging to everyone of his "victory" ... would you consider it a victory?
