I am a volunteer at an aged care facility, i have only just started so i need as much guidance as possible. i work with about 6 to ten residents, who do not spend much time together, i think its mainly due to personality differences. most have mild signs of dementure, and nearly all of them appear to be bored out of their mind. They hardly even talk, even though they can. I was also dissapointed with the very small amount of resources i had at my disposal. I have gathered a few art supplies to take with me next time, but i would greatly appreciate and ideas or suggestions on activities etc. that i could try, or ideas on where to look for information

I received an email saying that covering your head with a blanket or a comforter while sleeping affects your brain function.

Im a bit alarmed with the email I got. The email also says that "no breakfast" affects your brain function too.

I cannot sleep without covering my head with a blanket. I do not eat breakfast as well.

Can these affect the function of my brain?

For the last 2 days, I haven't been sleeping well(at all really) and this may be why. My left ear keeps popping and has been doing so for 3 days, it's not painful, but it's obnoxious. Any clue as to why this is happening?

I brush my teeth , tounge ,floss, use mouth wash after eating. If i eat 4 times a day thats means i brush 4 times. I have tried mouth rinse and they just burn my tounge and lips...now my lips are lil bit pink (anything that has alcohol does not help it makes things worse. I go to the dentist every 6 months. I stopped using over the counter toothpaste and mouth rinsers. Now i am using Oxyfresh toothpaste and mouth rinse that i buy from my dentist. Sometimes when i talk to people i chew a gum. It does not help at all.Chewing a gum makes it worse. I dont think my bad breath is coming from my teeth its like its coming from my neck or something . I just dont know how to explain it. When i tell my densist he just say oh no brush and floss hard!.....My teeth dont bleed or anything.
Pls guys help, i am starting school tomorrow its so embarrasing and depressing ppl.

Haven't been sleeping well lately. I'm afraid to take over the counter sleeping pills because I don't want to develop an addiction? I know this won't go on forever, but right now I need to function in my daily life w/out feeling exhausted. Any suggestions?

Hey, Ever since I've started college two weeks ago (I'm a freshmen) I've had irregular bowl movments and lots of bloating at the end of the day and constipation, but two weeks ago I was fine, why do you suppose this is? My thoughts that change in my diet and not used to the food, or maybe stress related? I dunno, what should I do?

I know that both are good for circulation and good for your heart.
What i'm concerned about is I'm not sure how much of each i should take...and is it safe to take both at the same time. And which would be best for circulation and such??
Last time i was at the doctors, i simply forgot to ask and i am getting ready to go to the store so i need to pick some up.
They tested my blood and said that my B12 level was ok, so is there a risk of OD if i take the supplement?
And is CQ10 only for older people?
How much of each IU should i consume daily?

I have been having a lot of problems with recurring constipation and have wanted to try a colon cleanse to get rid of the compacted stools. I just have a feeling that there are stools that are stuck in my bowels. My diet isn't terrible but isn't good either. Can you give an natural recommendations or commercially available colon cleanses that would loosen the compacted stools? I have seen a bunch of websites that try to see these. Which is good for this?

Scenic Mountain Medical in Big Spring, Tx policy is the following according to their website:

Any patient having inadequate insurance coverage, or no insurance coverage, will be requested to make appropriate deposits at the time of admission
You will be asked to pay any co-pays or deductibles not covered by your insurance at the time of service.

Even thos it does state this on their website. My son was still denied a payment plan even tho his insurance would have paid 90 percent.
My son could have died if we just have walked out of the hospital. His doctor told him to go straight to Midland right away which is 45 mins away. It took the emergency room their another 4 hours and they performed the surgery that night at 10:38.
