This helps a lot but as soon as my nails grow in... i bite them down again. i bite them so much its actually painful. One time i had my nails long and and kept painting my nails with the special nail polish for 2 MONTHS afterwards and i actually bit through the nail polish in my sleep and couldn't even taste the nail polish!!! i always say i'll go on a spa day if i stop but i never can stop. HELP!!!

Reasonable Cause must be established to force someone to be "Drug Tested" against their will.

Yet lately it seems "If you want" you must sign and pass a test. Drivers License, Jobs even Healthcare, what next?

I read that, at best, there is a 30% to 35% chance of "false" positive. Now that stinks.

Personally, I refuse to waiver the very same rights and protections I went to War to protect, in exchange for a HealthCare Benefit my Country PROMISED me, to treat me for the poison my Country dumped on me.
My grandfather would faint if you asked him to pee in a cup for a job. Could I have your opinions on this topic?

I have noticed that as human ages, few outlooks change. One of those is to do with the LIPS. The lips become narrower ...seems that the lips kind of fold inward (towards mouth). I have noticed that this could be different with each race. Does anyone know a natural way of dealing with it (such as if one/Drs../Biologists know of an effective exercise)?

I need help with ideas for migraines I have been getting almost every day since I became pregnant 14 weeks ago... I have gotten migraines for over 15 years but never this strong or often. My ob has prescribed Tylenol with codeine, which does nothing. I normally take Fioricet, which my ob feels is too much of a risk. I have still taken it occasionally because I can't handle the pain... it sometimes helps and sometimes doesn't... I am seeing a neurologist in 2 weeks, but that's still a long time to be in this much pain. Does anyone have ideas that I can discuss with my doctor? I know there are risks with many narcotics, etc. during pregnancy, but my life matters, too- I have a 12 month old daughter and a husband that need me, too. I feel I've been neglecting them big time because of this, not to mention being in pain every day is miserable enough to begin with. I don't care if it's Smarties, if it helps take my pain away, I will try anything, please help!

I have trouble staying asleep at night. I'll wake up from a small sound and not be able to go to sleep agian for sometimes an hour! My arms also fall asleep at night and start to tingle and go numb. That wakes me up too and I'm constantly changing positions for my arms. What should I do to sleep better?

I've had this kink in my neck for 5 days now and just seems to be getting worse. I can hardly move my neck at all. I've tried heating pads, icy hot, long hot showers....etc The pain keeps getting worse. I just can't go on like this for much longer. Sometimes I can't straighten my head.

Does anyone know wether cortisone acts locally or enters into blood circulation? How many are safe? (e.g. 3 per year, 1 per month. etc). Are there any serious side-effects?

Hi,

Im 16 now. When I was 12 I broke my right leg in two places (tibia and fibia or something like that). Anyway, after the cast came off and after all the physiotherapy etc...Ive come to notice that my leg is twisted so that the foot is pointing out to the right. I.e. when I just stand on my left leg, my knee goes perfectly down over the foot so I cant see it. When I just stand on my right leg, the knee goes down but doesnt cover my foot because the foot is twisted round to the right slightly.

In other words, left foot is 0 degrees off of the left knee but right foot is maybe 30 degrees clockwise off of the right knee.
I hope that is clear.
Anyway, I was wondering whether there is any PHYSIOTHERAPY I could do to get my foot twisted back?

Thanks for any help!!!
