Other - Diseases - November 2006

My Dad (he's pretty old) insists that it's silly to drink water when you're on a pill that reduces the liquid in his blood (diuretic). We've tried to convince him otherwise. He has the classic symptoms of dehydration: sunken eyeballs, diarrhea, abnormal tiredness, etc. But we can't convince him to drink more than just the minimal amt. of water per day.
Please help. Esp. if you can point me to references online that discuss this.

The thyroid gland, located in the lower front of the neck, produces hormones - thyroxine (T4) and tri-iodothyronine (T3) - that are extremely important for the regulation of the body's metabolism.

My question is related with hypothyroidism.

explains to other doctors what was the cause of death and what treatments were given to try to cure the person. As I understand it, these meetings had two purposes --- one to check to see if the dead person had good care and to educate other doctors about the condition that killed the person. First of all, tell me if those meetings take place and then is it possible for a family member to get a copy of the "report" --- the summary of the meeting?

Do you know any herbs or medicines that relieves people suffering from overly producing adrenaline on their body?

I am not talking about using the anti-depressents like the SSRI or MAOI, or any kind of meds using the brain chemicals to "cover up" the anxious feelings.

I want to know if there is any herbs or meds that directly decrease or cure the overly producing adrenaline in the body.

thank you.

I'm a musician in college. I've found that since I started band in 6th grade, my hearing has gone down and down, to the point where I probably hear about 50-60% of what I used to hear, and that's an immense amount. I live for music, and I desperately want to get my hearing back. Hearing aids are NOT an option, and pretty much neither is any other medical-related medicines or implants. Does anyone know of any TECHNIQUES that cause or aid in hearing recovery? Anything you know is greatly appreciated. The more details the better. Thanks!

I can't remember things any more. I'll be watching a tv program and then think, wow, I think I seen this one before. And then I think yes, I seen it. But how does it end? And then there are times when I can't remember peoples names. My husband thinks I lost the car keys, but I think, no, he had the car last, and then I try to remember when I used the car etc. Plus there are things like spelling skills. I can't remember how to spell something, and even when I do spell it right, it just doesn't look right. I feel like I'm loosing my mind.
