My two daughters came up with their sugar and cholesterol levels slightly high. Their weight is o.k. and everything else. They are 11 and 9 years old. The pediatrician told me to put them on a diet, but didn't give me any ideas. They've always been picky eaters since they were a year old, specially the youngest one. My older daughter has been modifying her eating habits very well. The younger one is my biggest problem when it comes to nutrition. I'm worried that there are not many options out there. Everything is so "sugary". I wanted to get recommendations, specially for breakfast, of beverages that I can give them to substitute the sugary juices and refreshments. They are good drinkers of water, though, but I don't want them to get bored. I've also read about the dangers of artificial sweeteners, and Stevia is so expensive. Please be considerate and don't make jokes about this. It is serious for me. I'm trying to reach those parents that understand.

this has been going on for a little over a year now. i have been to plenty of doctors for this. my internist, cariodilogist. I had 2 holtor monitors done, did a stress test on the treadmill, had a few ekgs. Holtor showed a resting heart beat average of the day 66 the first time and 60 the second time. All the doctors looked and it and said there was nothing wrong at all and the beat is fine. Stress and ekg came back great, blood work came back great too. Now almost everyday i feel like im gonna pass out but i never to. I get tingly and light head and i get up and walk around to make myself feel better. Can this be heart related and all these doctors wrong, or am i just having panick attacks bc all i do is worry now days. im 23 yrs old male, work out every day atthe gym. 5-10 about 195. i hate this feeling and all the doctors say is go to a pyshciarist. what should i do i hate this feeling, they say ill grow out of it. blood pressure is never high its always good they say

The reason I'm asking a question is that my two older brothers( I'm the youngest) are ganging up on me, and telling me i need to drop everything and move home to take care of my mom. I would gladly do it, but I cant quit my job, i have bills, a family and I'm in the middle of a semester at college, and we just signed a lease for a year on a new apartment ( a week prior to diagnosis). I Love my mom, and have been driving the 60 miles either everyday or every other day, i also am in charge of all of her financial matters, paperwork, etc. I have already gotten my mom enrolled in a program to help with nursing and other needs while I'm away...and currently my mom is in the hospital. My oldest brother is by her side 24 hours a day, but he is unable to care 100% for him self, he is high functioning autistic. My brothers have called me an in great to the family because I'm not there all day long to care for my mother. Any ideas on how to deal with , the cancer, my brothers etc. would be great

...in other words, my lung collapsed and I had to have surgury to reattach it the wall of my chest in order to prevent further collapse. Just curious if this something I should be keeping an eye on, even though it has been fixed? What I'm most concerned about is the build up of scare tissue.

Before his stroke he was showing signs of numbness in his arms and legs. He went to three different doctors and they all said he might have lyme disease. I found out recently that all the dr's had to do was listen to his Corated artery with a stethascope. Is this grounds for medical malpractic and does it constitute a lawsuit?

I had a allergy asthma eval yesterday. My doc says to take both singulair and zyrtec. I am just wondering why because singulair is supposed to help with asthma and allergies. I was only using zyrtec before and doing okay most of the time.
