My mom has just found out that she has type 2 diabetes. Now, she isn't sure on what foods she can or can't eat. Does anyone know of a site that I can go look at to see what foods are good and aren't good. thank you so much. I really appreciate it.

I was tested through a blood test. These are the results
c-reactive protein, cardiac,
rheumatoid arthritis factor,
relative risk for future cardiovascular event.

well, I am a heart patient from birth until I die. What does this mean? In layman words please?

um.. i woke up on saterday, with my glands bothering me. Its been a few days and my glads are still alittle enlarged and my left side hurts alittle.

After going to the doctor, they said it might be mono, but i dont want to do a blood test.

What do you think? mono or something else. I was tested for strept and it was negative.

There really isnt anything else wrong, no head aches, high temps, problems with my throat, etc..

So what do you think, is there anyway to know without blood test. as i hate needels.

Several years ago, I was told by a doctor that I had a "flapping heart valve". Now, I am kinda worried that the two are related. I am 48 years old. Has anyone experienced this type of medical diagnosis? I won't know anything until after the test on Monday, but have noticed of late that I have palpitations and at night when I am going to sleep that I can actually feel/hear my heart beating really hard. Am I just being overly concerned? Thanks for any responses.

I am a healthy 27 year old male, and want desperately to reach out and help a fellow person in need. Christ has blessed me recently when it came to the health of one of my children and this morning I feel as though He gave me a sign as to how I can repay his blessing.

Does any know of anyone personally that has died from taking this drug?? Does anybody have any real facts (or found on the internet) about the potential of death from using taking this medicine? Please provide links if you do.
I have been able to find some information but most of the information I have read reflects that this is potentially a very dangerous medicine to take with many very serious side effects. (I know all medicines have side effects but this one has a very long list of very serious and potential life threatening issues)
I called a pharmacist about this and all he said is it can cause drowsiness or dizziness...I have found much more than that!!
I have very personal reasons for asking these questions so if you are not going to provide a serious answer, please do not bother.

One of my friends showed me an article on it, and though it appears rare (1 in 100,000) it's kinda scary considering at the level of stamina and stuff that I need to compete
