General Health Care - August 2006

I am a step mother to my 10 year old boy. His mother left when he was 4 years old. I do understand that peeing on himself may be a pychological thing, thus his mom leaving him & feeling abandoned might play a factor to his peeing. My husband and I raise both children- he has custody. Anyway, I have tried from rewards systems, to spanking him, wrtiting standards, taking things away from him such as his videogames, baseball cards, and his train collection that he adores, tv, radio. We have talked to him, yelled at him, he has had group theapy... nothing seems to work. He continues to pee every single day- it seems like part of his routine everyday. My last resort is to drop it right? Let him be....perhaps he will realize that is wrong to pee on himself. My son refuses to ask to go to the restroom when he needs to, or stop from playing to go. I think its laziness on his end.... We are contstantly reminding him of going to the restroom. What more can I do to help him learn & have him stop?

About 4 times a year, I have bloody noses that last 3-4 hours. Last time was valentines day-- it started at breakfast and lasted till lunch while I was delivering singing carnation grams. I'm at work now, sitting at my desk, and I need it to go away, theres a customer coming in 20 minutes. I currently have a piece of tissue stuffed into my nose.

What can I do to make this thing STOP NOW?

I have been thinking about buying one of those home enema kits. I am not looking forward to it, but I have been reading up on colonic irrigation and I hear that there is a lot of health benefits of getting an enema done on occassion. Some benefits would include weight loss, cancer preventative, better digestion system. If you have had the procedure done before, could you give me suggestions. I am going on a health kick. I just quit drinking and smoking. I have started excercising more and I am slowly changing my diet.

We are warned about weight issues and foods that aren't healthy for us to eat, so then why are they the most expensive? People can't afford to buy them when living on a budget!!! e.g. the 'Organics' range.

'Clawback" is the amount the disabled person pays for medicaid services and the health and human services seems to have misintrepreted the law concerning this putting theformally working class into extreme poverty while those who never worked can benefit from all services without paying a dime.If we protest togather maybe some politician will listen to this anti American way of our governments treatment of the disabled.

Its so funny to hear your voice after you inhale the gas. I have heard of Astronauts and deep sea divers that have to breath helium for weeks as part of their training, so I always thought that it was harmless. But when I was at the store buying balloons these two little ladies behind the counter insisted that I never let the children play with the helium because it causes brain damage. I personally don't think so but maybe I'm wrong.

I am 70. I have to take vitamin D orally; but when I work outside in the heat and sun (gardening) my legs break out in "hives" or a heat rash that itches terribly and I have to come inside and sit down until it subsides. This affects my lower extremities only, i.e., knees to feet and elbows to fingers. I also take Neurontin for peripheral edema. Is this too much D?

I got really pissed. but since then i have had a chance to check out what they said. And i do have to agree with them. 90% of the American women are obese. from children to adults. also the men too. My question is why the hell did they let this happen to them. Im 6'2 weigh 216 lbs. so i carry my weight pretty good. Do you think we all should go on a diet lol. im not singling no certain person out. if i have offended anyone, im sorry but its the truth if you just look around you.

This happened two years ago and it was very painful. I'm not in pain yet but my knee keeps getting bigger each day for the last week or two. The surgery didn't seem to help last time. Frequent painful needle drainages didn't help. The only things that helped some was a cortisone shot and some prednisone pills.

Please suggest something other than surgery if possible.
