im a guitar player and as one, u hhev to have great control over both hands right and left. Theres one thing i noticed with my left hand that i have that my other friend guitarist don't. Dexterityy, and agility. For instance, when i try to shake my wrist from left to right on my right hand its simply enough i can pull of about 4 (left to right) in a second. My left however feels heavy and i can pull of half of that in a second. same goes with finger tapping. I feel like i have less control over my left hand is if it was numb (not specificly numb, but the feeling of less control). Also another problem i have is a clicking noise i get in my wrist with my left when i try to flop it around to loosen it up as i do with my right. It feels a bit unlubricated. Anyways this is a major dilemma can sumone help?!

What happened is I ordered this product called "Celebrity Sexy Lips" (It's a lip plumper) I was reading what I thougt was a ligitimate review of the product, which of course said it was the best out there. So I quickly odered it. I even fell for the 3 for 60.00 deal. After I ordered it I realized I was reading a advertisement and not a real review at all. So, when I googled for the real reviews everyone said that it really sucked. When I tried to cancel it, it wouldn't let me. So, my only choice it to return it once I get it in the mail. Should I send it back taking a chance that they will actually give me my money back, or should I just keep the stupid stuff? They did also say they would throw in three tubes of teeth whitener, which I wonder if that will even work. Anyway, I guess I'm worried because I already feel duped from this company. I'm soo mad I hate wasting my money! What do ya'll think?

Usually I take two 1500 mcg pills. This morning I took a 5000 mcg pill for the first time. Could this have caused my massive headache?

Should I go back to my normal amount of Biotin?

She's been having some problem with her right leg lately. On occasion pain and stiffness or heaviness, but recently she told me of another symptom she has. She told me that sometimes in the mornings when she gets up and starts walking around her right leg feels longer than the other. She described it as walking with one shoe on one shoe off sort of feeling. Anyone have any idea what this could be? This doesn't occur all the time. Thanks.

I have to get surgery in two weeks because i have 2 holes in my skull and they need to put a metal plate to cover them. and they said they are going to shave a 1" by like 6" section so they can make a "s" like incision so once the hair grows back you wont be able to tell. or i can not have it shaved and then they have to cut a straight line, so i will have a permanent part in my hair there. but its on the top of my head so i think my hair will just fall over it and you will only see the part if i cut my hair short.

I recently watched a film titled "Sicko" that was directed by Michael Moore on health insurance. In the film is exposed the difficulty of obtaining health insurance and presented a long list of pre-concieved illneses one could have that would make it extrememly difficult to get health insurance. In my childhood, I had a minor bout of tourettes syndrom that quickly went away after a couple of years, but my record of this may still be in some hospital file. Should this little snag be any concern to me?

The day after Christmas, I started feeling sick and threw up twice. I didn't eat that entire day, but had liquids that night. Yesterday, I just drank liquids. It's been over 48 hours since I've thrown up, but I am still not eating, just drinking fluids. I feel kind of weak, but I am afraid if I eat it will come up. I don't have any stomach ache at all. I am also do for my monthy any day now.
If I haven't thrown up in more than 48 hours, what are the chances of getting sick again if I eat?

I've really never had the flu. I'm 29 and the last time I threw up was when I was 7, after a surgery. So, I am new to this. Any help would be great.

I drink liquids and I did have some soup, but mostly it was broth and rice..

I don't have any respatory or cold like symtoms. I just feel sort of weak and a bit dizy, but not bad. Just tired I guess.

i don't know how to describe this exactly, but i will try my best to be descriptive as i can.
i woke up christmas morning and threw up about 6 times during the day. didnt eat anything until the next night, part of a banana. and since then ive been eating what i can tolerate and drinking water. i've kept it all down, but when i eat it feels like it's not going into my stomach, it kind of feels like it just sits in my throat for a while. a long while. i ate part of a banana around four and it feels like theres something in my throat now, at 8. not like directly in my throat, but down around the collarbone area.
it never did this before, is it related to the stomach thing i had? should i be worried?

I ate a ham sandwich on wheat bread about 24 hours ago, I went to make myself a ham sandwich tonight and when I bit on the top of the sandwich while I was chewing I noticed the bottom of the wheat bread had green mold on it. I'm totally freakin out right now cause I don't know whats gonna happen to me and I'm not sure if I should go to the hospital or if I will be ok or not.

Can anyone help me.

p.s. tonight when I noticed the mold I spit out and gagged up all the stuff I was eating but I can't remember if I swallowed any of it.

I'm so fortunate to be paying through the nose for ANTHEM healthcare coverage -- here's why...

In late November, I was rear ended by an insurance agent from PIAA in Henrico, Virginia -- at 45 mph. As a direct result my right knee swelled up to the size of a softball and I had to finally go to Patient First to get a knee imobilizer because of the pain and because an extreme amount of fluid had built up in my knee...it was a lot of fun, especially driving with it off which caused unbelievable pain...

Anyway, the fine folks at ANTHEM healthcare now are denying coverage because "the symptoms don't match the care provided, therefore they're not going to pay for the coverage" meaning I get a double whammy from the GEICO ripoff agency and ANTHEM healthcare ripoff "businesses"...

I guess it's all about the money when it comes right down to it -- Why should healthcare companies pay money out to anyone ??? "ANTHEM -- We're rich, you're not, so go suffer..."

I was fixing myself a ham sandwich yesterday and never noticed anything but I went to eat a ham sandwich today and I put the plate down and there was the mold on the bottom of the bread, I don't know if any of the mold was on the top of the bread or not, I ran into the kitchen and spit out everything I had been chewing, but the reason I'm scared/worried is I don't know if the mold was in the bread I ate yesterday, it didn't really taste funny that I can remember

I'm a senior going to St. Louis University and I've been thinking about becoming a Physical Therapist. However, I was watching TV and those woman about 600 pounds had to see one for her legs which were really gross and large. The physical therapist had to feel/massage them. I'm not being mean but I could even look at the screen. I know I'll have to touch people and help them but helping someone with such sick/bad legs was not something I thought of.

Do you know any other careers in the medical field?

We can get vitamin D from the Sun, they are reporting that many people aren't getting enough, most of us only have our face and perhaps our hands exposed.
Would we get more vitamin D if we went out nude?

In the past month I've smoked maybe 4 or 5 times...before that I was a daily smoker for more then 10 years, I weigh around 200 pounds so I know the THC can stay stored in my system longer...I no longer smoke I decided my brain cells were more important and I guess I have just woken up and realized it's not for me anymore. Well I have been looking for a better job and I was wondering what I could do to completly detox my system....I'm not looking for a quick over night thing...I have about 6 weeks for it to work...I just think it would be best to try something....If you have any actual ideas that do work and have worked for you then please let me know. Do you think it will be out of my system in 6 weeks??? Thanks in advance.....BTW...No need for rude comments on I shouldn't have smoked to begin with...I realized that all on my own
