Other - General Health Care - August 2006

"Diseases" But I took a chance on "general" Ok the question is: Are there any symptoms of high blood presure? My daughter has scarring on her kindeys from an infec years ago. The Dr told us that the worst that would happen is she might get high blood pressure from it. And latley her BP has been kinda high. Not outrageously high, but enough to worry about. And she won't believe me so she wants me to ask. If anyone knows of any sypmtoms: cough, headache, shortess of breath.. anything I haven't mentioned..
She has blood work tomorrow morn but is worried about it tonight and told me to ask.
Does anyone know?

Does anyone have this? When I lay down at night just as I am falling asleep, I get this bang in my head. It's like an explosion. When I sleep on the sofa it does'nt happen and I thought it was because my head was higher, so I bought a huge pillow and tried that, but it did'nt work. Now it seems that if I sleep on the sofa with the TV it does'nt happen. Serious answers only please.

How long before the lungs are clear and my body rids me of the damage I have done to myself from smoking for 38years. When will I stop dreaming about smoking? When I wake from those dreams I am really upset with myself until I realise that it was a dream.

Ok when i go to sleep, I cant sleep it takes a while (1 sometimes 2 hours or more) i close my eyes and all i see are images of the day, the upcoming day, i tried going to sleep early so i can wake up earlier i tried getting tired (working out playing ball or some) I try reading which works but only in school not at home. if i go to sleep late (2-6 am) i usually wake up at 9 i dont know why. But i dont wake up tired just normal but i know this will take its toll later on. So anyone with ideas..remember i dont want to take medication but if i do i'll see the doc. thanks.

For some reason I have an open wound between my big toe and 2nd toe which is quite annoying & itchy.

I'd like to get rid of it and healed as quickly as possible.

Could anyone recommend a course of action?

Looking around my medicine cabinet for skin ointments I find:

(1) Synalar® (Fluocinolone) Ointment which is a topical steroid

(2) Elocon® (Mometasone Furoate) Ointment which is a synthetic corticosteroid

(3) Betamethasone Dipropionate, a glucocorticoid steroid with anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive abilities.

(4) Antibiotic cream

I don't think it's a skin condition because it's not between the other toes, more of a wound, but I'd like to know if one of the above would be better than the other.

Or if someone can recommend something else/thinks something else would be better.

Thanks!

I work in a medical lab and we do drug testing for many companies. Often, clients are appyling for non-smoking jobs and want to know how long they should wait before being tested. Some companies in our area will not hire a smoker. No one I work with knows the answer. Maybe there's a nurse or doctor out there -
