What are your experiences with positives and negatives. I REALLY want to quit, and so far nicotine replacement has not helped (in the past) Is this the magic pill everyone claims?

I'm skeptical that the harm is actually as doctors say.

My diet is pretty much the same, but lately even in the middle of the night I find myself waking up to go the toilet. It's harmless, right? It's really annoying when I have to go to the toilet almost all the time (last week, at every exam paper I had to excuse myself; before and after class, I need to go to the toilet; when i reach home I always have to rush to the toilet)

I'm trying to think of a hypothetical situation in which it would be better to have a lower (or $0 deductible) with a higher percentage of coinsurance. As opposed to having a higher deductable with lower coinsurance...

Telling your Dr. you regularly have 21 drinks in a week would make him/her worry. But if you spread the drinking out over the whole week is that level of consumption really something to be concerned about?

I have found my fathers pills and would like to know what it is. He had it in the bottle with his heart medication ( I know what that is) but I am just curious. I know it is something the doc prescribed him but I still want to know.
It is a round yellow pill, on one side there is a cut mark through the center and on the other side it has the number 93 above and 832 below. Any help with this would be so appriciated. I have looked all over the web but cant find what I am looking for. If anyone knows please answer me back. Just to ease my mind. Thank you alot.

I have a sleep problem. I sleep late and wake up very very early. And in the afternoon, my brain wants to take naps but I can't. What do I do? P.S. Dont put your answer as sleeping pills or sleep clinic.

My father-in-law recently fell ill and has been transported to a nursing home. Insurance will cover 100 days in the nursing home. We would like to bring him home but he needs someone to be there with him constantly, as he is unable to do much for himself. We were thinking of paying my 23 year old daughter to do this as she had a baby 8 months ago and is between jobs. Although she has not had any medical training, she is extrememly bright and I know she could handle this, plus, she loves her grandfather very much. What would be a "fair" price to pay her? We live in Ohio.

Well there you have it, how can we bang on about what is good and what is not good for ourselves when we clearly should just be a bit more relaxed.

Hi All,

I have started feeling tired and weak towards evenings from the past 2 weeks or so. The work is not very hectic, for this to be attributed. I smoke around 5 - 6 cigs a day and from the past 2 days am smoking 1 cig a day. i have normal food and have started eating 2 bananas in the noon after lunch and take 2 capsules of cod liver oil (morning and night).

I feel weak and tired towards evening and am fresh after the sleep.

Please suggest

Sometimes, my alarm goes off and I turn it off, then I dream about getting ready and I actually think I'm getting ready. I then wake up to find that I've actually done none of it yet... Quite simply, I just have a hard time waking up, I always want more sleep... Someone help!!

I came out of surgery about 4 weeks ago and the doctors and nurses keep telling me to increase my protein. The problem is I’m not sure how much protein is enough. I’m in my late teens early 20's and weigh around two hounded pounds at a height of 5'5". The surgery left me with about a 4.6 cm X3.6cm X1.5 CM hole in the side of my leg. Well obviously it's gotten smaller but I’m looking for the fastest and most pain free way to heal. I’m on a wound vac and man does it suck (literally and figuratively).

What's the best way to measure my pulse? I don't get the neck, and the wrist thing. I sometimes put my hand on my heart, and just feel for a beat, but that never works, because I always get a pulse of 22, and that's not right here!

So...?

I was fine until 4 weeks ago at my sister's communion when after everyone left, I threw up the food. Then after I felt nauseous all the time, and I can't eat breakfast in the morning because I throw it up and I have diarrhea now in the mornings only. I'm going to the doctor soon but I'm really scared because I HATE doctors and going to the hospital. What could I have???

P.S. No I'm not pregnant. I'm 16 years old, eat fairly well and I'm not under stress.

I got a TB Test earlier today around 11:30 ish this morning for volunteering at the hospital....

I didn't watch the nurse inject the stuff in my arm.. cause i am a phobic of needles...

but.. i remember last time there was a some blood and i had what looked like a fluid filled pocket under my skin the 1st time i had it done last year...

Well this year there was very little blood and it started to bruise almost 10 minutes after it... and this afternoon/ evening and saw that it was the size of a nickle and was very slightly raised.. but its only was a few hours that i got the injection....

should i be worried or just relax and wait it out..

I know you are not suposed to put anything on it or touch it and cause it will mess up the results...

but i dont know.. just kinda want to know if i should spazz or what.

i am going back thursday to get it looked at.. cause it would have been 48 hours i think >.>;;;;

but yea

thanks to anyone who replys..

Does thrush cause you to taste everything different, and also will you lose your smell a little bit? Like will things smell differently too, or is it just taste
