I have lost 2 jobs b/c of being diabetic, and now since working thru a temp agency, I was offered a permanent posistion. After telling personel that I was a diabetic they decided to hold off on hiring me b/c of attendance (all dr excused). But I was offered the job, and the attendance thing was never brought up.

I had undergone endoscopy six months ago and was told by my doctor the 3 polyps found in my intestine were small. Last week, 2-3 drops of blood suddenly came down when i was doing my bowel movement. Does that have something to do with the polyps? Actually a year before doing the endoscopy, i already had my first blood experience.

Any progress on vaccine? Any human to human transmission? Is that still seen as inevitable? How is the gvt. doing stockpiling Tamiflu, and does it work? If you survive a bout with Bird Flu, are you immune if it comes around again? Any information welcome, thanks!

I'm 37 and have been diagnosed with RA last year. I've been seeing doc, but don't feel he's taking me seriously. He seems to be one of the arrogant sort. I'm not sure how to handle the situation. He asked me on my last visit if the meds were helping and I answered honestly, saying "no". He became very belligerant and almost nasty, telling me my "pain was not that bad", and I "expect too much". At the time, I had only been on treatment less than 4 weeks. He told me up front that it would take 6 weeks to see improvement. It took 8 weeks to see anything. The only improvement has been in the swelling of my joints about 3 or 4 days a week. I have another appointment Monday, and am seriously afraid to to tell him that I'm still in pain. How do I handle this situation without being yelled at again?

I just had a baby 3 months ago (ignore picture - I'm using hubby's Yahoo account). Anyway, ever since then, I've been very short of breath and even have my hands / feet go numb, especially after meals. My blood pressure is normal, but sometimes it seems like my heart skips a beat.

A friend of mine recommended that I take OTC diuretics until my next doctor's appointment. She said it could be pulmonary edema caused by hormones getting back to normal. Has anyone heard of this? Do the diuretics work?

I just started taking them this morning, and they're actually helping me breathe!
