General Health Care - September 2006

I have a back injury. I live alone. I travel. I can't lift anything over a certain weight. I have a problem lifting groceries and other things. If a fork lift were tiny it would be perfect for my home. Is there anything on the market that can lift for me. I have rolling luggage and a lift on my car. I need one in my home. I can make something or buy something.

I don't need one now, but I've always been afraid to take a blood test. I would like to get one to test my cholesterol, but I don't want a blood test. Everyone says it doesn't really hurt, but I get very weak when I think about it, and I hate the idea of someone sticking a needle in my vein and drawing blood! So, any ideas on what I can do to get over this? And does it really not hurt?

I've been having trouble with my sleeping lately. About every 3 hours or so, I wake to use the bathroom. I was reading a book on sleeping problems and, though it wasn't specific, I read that the brief moments of being awake really interrupt the sleep process. Can anyone tell me if waking this often to use the bathroom is too much and if it could be affecting my sleep? Sorry about the personal question, but thank you.

About a month ago I sang a bad high note that turned into a screeching sound and since then I've had a slight sore throat on the left side of my throat that hasn't gone away and seems to have gotten worse. When I look in the mirror it seems like the left tonsil is redder and maybe has a sore. I went to see a doctor and he said he can't see anything and doesn't know what it is (I have an appointment with an ENT in 2 weeks!). Does anyone know what to do about a sore that is caused by bad singing? Does this lead to a viral infection?

I used to have this a few times a month as a teen. Now as a middle aged adult, it happens very rarely. I'll have these little spells, usually at night, when all of a sudden, I can see everything around me, but it looks like everything is noticeably smaller than usual, but all in proportion to one another, still. I've never taken street drugs and am in good health. This might last a few minutes to a half hour, then go away.

Anyone else ever hear of this, experience it, or know what it is? Is it a type of "ocular migraine"? Thanks.

To reduce body weight, is it ideal to walk. If so, how many minutes.
Which is the right time to choose - Morning or evening. fast walking or medium. Is walking in the open terrace is the same when compared to other types of walking. Please inform the benefits of each in detail.
