Why can't there be just one dose like the measles where you get one shot and you're immunized? Is there any possibility of getting the benefits of all four doses in only one?

On a question over here, someone said that a blood glucose of 120 mg/dL is "normal".

Hell no! But I see doctors say this kind of thing, because I guess they're worried the patient will try to keep tighter control and run into more hypogylycemic episodes.

120 is safe, not ideal, and not normal.It makes me wonder if docters knowingly don't give the best care advice or if they've really forgotten that much.

It's been pea-sized, firm and movable in a 1 inch diameter area for about 1.5 months. Hasn't grown or diminished at all. I'm an extremely healthy person. No smoking, moderate drinking, lots of excersize, no illnesses, infections or wounds, and a fairly low cancer history; Mother -ovarian, 30 yrs old. The internet has less than favorable things to say, siting the left-supraclavicular node as a sentinel node, "Virchow's Node," etc. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I received an email saying Johns Hopkins Institute put out a research paper.They say cooking in plastic containers in a microwave causes cancer. It may be a hoax. But I have always been suspicious of this method of cooking.

Apparenrently, the dioxins leaches into fat in the meat (or even vegetables) and this is dangerous. Any truth to this?

I advise everyone in my family to use Corningware, a neutral glass container to cook meat.

Any comments? What's your experience in this area?
