I have had mono now for almost a month. I am feeling totally better. All of my symptoms are gone and I do not feel drained anymore. Basically I feel about as normal as possible right now. I have been sleeping a lot and taking vitamins. My dr. told me to wait 2 months before getting back into the gym and being involved in strenuous activities. This seems a little lengthy compared to everything else I have read. Is there anything I need to look out for in the mean time? Just looking for advice from people who have had this before.

My son has had since birth severe breathing issues (he has laryngotracheomalacia) and asthma, and severe gerd(hes on an adult dose of prevacid daily). He has had 13 hospital stays and more than enough er and dr visits.
I fired the first GI doc after my son developed pnemonia secondary to reflux and continue to require .31mg xopenex every 2 hours at home around the clock (i am a respiratory therapist), anyways the new GI doc said he has a milk protein allergy on top of all of the above problems. He placed him on Ellecare formula. His respiratory issues immediatly disapeard. Then soon to follow his GI symtoms disapeared. He has now (2 days from now will be 1) been able to eat every type of babyfood out there, and no reactions. The GI doc said it was time to see an allergist for testing, and a milk trial. He had neg skin and blood test, but had respiratory and gi symptoms (including gi bleeding) from the milk.

Why is he able to have cheese, and milk containing foods and has no reactio

Diabetes is a real problem. Obesity is mentioned almost daily in the media. Still when we get type 2 diabetes and have to depend on blood glucose monitoring devices, we still have inaccurate measurements. While there are all sorts of metering devices available, all sorts of Federal regulations, all sorts of FDA testing prior to commercial release, why on earth are our lifelines to good health so inaccurate? Even national laboratories are inconsistent. Our medical professionals depend on their accuracy and we, patients, depend on our meters for good diabetic control. So why are they so wrong. Yes, meters are better than they were twenty years ago. While I am greatful that they even exist, we have such technology as to be able to get to the moon, but I can't get an accurate glucose reading much less an accurate HbA1c reading. For example, my last A1c result was 6.4 in the doctor's office while that same morning my home test was 5.9! It's just a sad state of affairs.

Is bulimia a skeleton in the closet that a person is hiding and coping to let go and be set free in that addiction? Do bulimia people usually still have a social life? Or they just keep theirself away fro people? IS bulimia also a fatal disease? What complication can you get from bulimia? Do bulimia people also LOVE them self? That is why they are always wanted the perfection image or a perfectionist? And if you are a bulimic is it possible for a person to like you or to love you? even tho they know your biggest secret?! And can bulimic overcome this addiction that is eating their life and joy? Can they be a victorious to fight this illness? And do bulimia people a gross person? Is paris hilton, lindsay lohann and hilary duff a BULIMIC PERSON? because I like them but they look so scary in their picture... flesh and bones left... why did bulimia get started?

Goes to show how many "not so bright" people we have in our community... apparently no one read the follow ups that I posted and therefore never got any further than the "best answer chosen". Pity. So many people living off of misinformation, but then that is the state of our times.

My 4 yr old daughter was diagnosed with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. For those of you who may not know, it is a disease spread by ticks. They did blood work to find out the diagnosis.... Has anyone elses children (or adults) had this? and how was it treated? The antibiotic they gave her doesnt say anything about working for RMSF.. It does say it works for Lymes disease, which is another tick spread disease..... I know the bad things that can happen so PLEASE dont send them too me 500 more times.. I am just curious about treatments... Thank you

She was diagnosed with it two years ago(she is currently almost 9 years old),and we go back for a check-up in December.I sometimes worry about her,but I try not to hold her back too much.I am as well informed on the condition as I can be,and I watch for symptoms;she has complained of chest pain twice, and one time, for a few days she seemed extremely tired.My question also relates to her school.They are asking the kids to run for 30 min. once a week, and everyday they run for about ten minutes.I am afraid this is too much stress for her.Her records have not caught up with us from her other school(we just moved from Austin to San Angelo)so I'm also wondering what I could do about that.Our insurance has not kicked in at my husbands new job,but if necessary, I will find a way to get her to a Dr. here so that he can write her an excuse,if need be.
