He has a bumbo seat which is awesome but I wondered if there is any device to help him keep his head up. He must get a terrible cramp in his neck.

I got a very, very small whitish and somewhat reddish sore on my tongue. It hurts like crazy - especially if I eat something. What is it exactly and what can I do to get rid of it? The thing I'm talking about is a very small bump on the tip of the tongue.

My Sister & Brother in Law have been drunk for almost a month. We've been here before but never for this long. This time they seem to be past a point where I can get them to stop drinking and start thinking. They don't seem to care about anything. They have no insurance. I have no money. I have to find a residential program for them before it's too late. Help.

Wouldn't curing AIDS or other blood related diseases be just a matter of draining ones blood and infusing a completly new change. (like changing oil in a car) Couldn't there also be a way of cleaning the blood outside of the body using heat to destroy the infection and reentering it into the body? Could these ideas work. why or why not?

In the last couple of weeks, my hands have started shaking--noticeably. If I really concentrate, I can control it--to a degree. I'm really stressed about heading off to college...could it just be nerves, or is it something more serious?

Three times, I've had episodes where my CPK enzyme levels have spiked (1400 the first time, 1100 the second. No test on the third).
This is associated with a rash on my upper torso and lower face. (looks like small surface hemmoraging. There's no inflammation around the initial points, and no itching)

These episodes have happened at different times of the year, while I was on different diets, and there was no pesticide spraying within 2 blocks of my residence (by a professional lawn care company or municipality)

My doctor has eliminated a whole bunch of posabilities, but we haven't been able to come up with anything that matches. Any new avenues of research would be greatly appreciated.

Did you know that Sleep Apnea is a serious and deadly disease which affects many Americans who aren't even aware of it? The symptoms include snoring, daytime drowsiness/sleepiness, cessation of breathing during sleep, night sweats, morning headaches, loss of concentration and many others. I have lost two friends in the past two years to Sleep Apnea. Both were diagnosed and refused to use their CPAP machines. I was diagnosed in 2000 and use a CPAP every time I sleep.

When they first came, they were intense maybe 2 every 14d. My doc put me on various meds and finally settled on topamax 200mg. They gradually tapped down to 1 every month or so. But again lately, they have become intense once again and the topamax is not longer working. My doc wants to but me on depakote but I'm really afraid, bc I have always thought it was for bi-polar conditions. I have tried several other Rx's with very little success, he thinks the depakote will work. Has anyone heard of this, and does it work. I am 43yr and I know that it's mainly a hormonal issue with my headaches.

My Mother has advancing Parkinson's disease and has been given several alternate drugs to control the shaking.
The drugs have worked in some cases, but the side effects are always too bad for her to continue taking them. The doctors don't seem to be able to help her with this.
Has aniyone else been thru this and found a solution....either a new drug...or an alternate therapy....or even a drug that helps curb the side effects (usually she becomes very lethargic or too tired and sleeps all day) Any help or siggestions would be greatly appreciated...
I should add that she is not willing to have surgery to implant a device that may help the problem with electrical impulses.
