Diseases & Conditions - 5 August 2006

I have paused for eight mounts at a time, and I have paused for six and seven months many times.
In 1973 I was exposed to fire, my lungs were damaged, the Veterans Administration keeps close tabs on my lungs. I was in a biopsy, the doctor said “ I am glad to see you don't smoke” Man I smoke a pack of cigars a day and have for 40 years!

Any tips for overcoming Trichotillomania besides seeing a psychiatrist/psycologist?

If you don't know what Trichotillomania is, go here:
www.trichotillomania.co.uk
and read the description.

(PS: I kind of classified this wrong for the category. It isn't a disease really, but...)

My dad is 84 Years old and He recently had a routine blood work and I had the results. Can you halp me to understand it?

Results(Written by doctor Genreal doctor)

84 y/o male no regular medical f/u with elevated PSA noted on recent routine blood work (PSA= 14.99). On P.E. prostate enlarged 1 1/2 X's firm non-tender & nodules Pt denies SX's of hesitancy frequency.

An urologist made a rectal test and said he probably has prostate cancer but that dosn't not matter anymore because he is 84. I'm not happy with that and i would like to have different opinions about it. This doctor told my dad to take DOXAZOSIN 2 Mg about six weeks.


Does this indicate cancer symptoms??
Is it a good idea to do a surgery?

What should be done with them?

I propose we build a larger-then-life scaled up version of those meat mincer machines you see in a butchers' shop. So the opening is about 6' across, rather than 6", you got the scale?
You should see their power, I've even dropped small frozen joints in it, and they come out neatly minced too! What torque.

Back to smackhead problem. Then when convicted in court for their 500th burglary, we simply throw the switch, and make food for our livestock! Society and animals both benefit! And no more 'dss benefit' to pay either!

I can almost hear the howling of wind through empty, abandoned, prisons across the land....Rejoicing in the heavens.......unemployed police officers musing about 'the good old days' in the job centre queue.....

Heaven could indeed be a 'place on Earth'...

She has been Diagnosed preliminarily of Lupus. This has been the most strong flare, since she was 3 or 4 years old. Since she is pregnant, caution has been taken not to use pain killers like Celebrex that are dangerous for the baby. She is using a prescribed dose of cortizone, she is better now, but the leg with the swelling ankle is now thinner than the other one. Why?

Any cures in the world for this deadly disease?

I have hepatitis c virus, genotype 1a. I just went through my year of treatment and have had a negative pcr since my first test at week twelve. I had a viral load over 2 million before treatment.
I know that with genotype 1a I have only a 40% chance of staying negative. I go for my three month after treatment pcr in two weeks. I feel very apprehensive about that test.
Has anyone here had hcv, genotype 1a and gone through treatment and achieved a sustained viral response after stopping treatment?
