how do you like your job? I just started it. I love working with some of teh patients. some are really combative though and that sucks :( and I'm dealing with alot of death of residents when I get attatched to them. how do you deal with it. tell me about some of your hardest patients. my hardest is a big lady. she had a stroke, can't talk very well, can't move the whole left side of her body, it always takes two of us to get her to the bathroom and it takes forever. plus it kills our backs lifting her! grrr. anyone have experiences like that?

Even putting special tincture for mouth ulcers on them doesn't make any effect. Do you have a cure that works? They are so painful at times. What are they actually anyway??

Does anyone know of any great home remedies for a spot pimple treatment?
I need an overnight treatment that will at least reduce the size and redness by the next day.

For the past two months I have been problems going to the bathroom. Before, it was every time I went, I would pass only number 1's according to the Bristol Stool chart:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en...


I would never feel like I completely emptied, and it would always be a small amount. 1-4 times per two days, usually. I know more would be in there, but no matter what I did they wouldn't come out.

Then I changed my diet (clean wholesome foods only), and stopped drinking milk. It's been three or so days since I've been drinking milk, and as a result, instead of just number one's I would get either one 2, 3, or 4 and a few 1's. I still don't feel satisfied and it's still not easy to pass.

Sometimes I noticed a little bit of blood too.

Thanks for your help. BTW I'm a 19 year old male who regularly exercises.

My question is WHY would they have Cod in them? It doesn't say how much or why and it's not part of the regular ingredient list or the list of supplements.

The soy part doesn't bother me though I don't know why that's in there either but I am a vegetarian and have been since birth. I've never eaten meat, fish or chicken and doubt I ever will. Fish is disgusting to me and the smell makes me gag. I can't imagine how this ingredient could be beneficial to me but I know it can't hurt me either.

I just want to know why the heck it's in there. I went onto Wal-Mart.com and there is no link to ask this type of question so I hope you can help.

I'm a grade 3/4 teacher and I have a child with 'mild ADD' in my class. He is 8 years old and has never been on ADD medication. His mother says she isn't opposed to the idea, if I think it would be beneficial ('if he's doing absolutely no work'). I'm just wondering what the medication actually DOES to the brain / body. How will it help him? What is it supposed to improve exactly? THANKS!!! :)

Yesterday I fell in the mud (ha ha okay get over it) anyway, I was kind of shook up but I wasnt in any pain. I took some asprin just in case. Well this morning I woke up really sore on my lower back. I imediatly thought of my kidneys. And then I remembered that I had fallen on my ***. Well whatever Im sore all day. And then just a few minutes ago I went to pee and after I was done it hurt. So I freaked out and told my boyfriend to look and he said there was nothing, and now the pain is gone. I have also been feeling very weak and sick to my stomach. Whats going on with me? I know Im aniemic and Ive already had my galbladder taken out. What do you think?

I’m twenty one and I’ve been experiencing this “heart racing” issue since I was about fifteen. What started as a racing heart has turned into a huge issue with me and today I almost died because of it. I always get this odd dream like blurred vision of spacey circles with bright light, then comes the tightening in my chest and racing heart that I can usually feel in my ears, when it all passes I always have a nasty metallic taste in my mouth. After that I don’t remember much expect feeling like I just woke up too early after taking a sleeping pill.
This morning while driving to school I felt this same awful feeling and somehow ended up hitting a huge lifted on my passenger side and literally drove up his back tire, which caused me to completely flip over. Following that I remember waking upside down...

i have been without medical insurance for quite a while and have 'collected' a lot of things that i want to talk about next week when i go to my new doctor. i can honestly think of about 9-10 things that i feel need immediate attention. is it fair to make a list and drop them all on him at one time? or, will doing so just make him think i'm a neurotic pain in his behind?

Recently (the past week or so) I have been having bad gas pains, and (sorry if this is too gross for some) squishy poo.. not quite diarreah, but definately not normal. I also never seem to be able to get any air out..

I used to have this problem as a reaction to a med, but am now off all meds, have been for about a year.

I haven't changed my diet at all. I'm in college, and eat in the dining center. I've never had a problem before, so at first thought it was something I ate, but the problem has persisted...

Any ideas?
Thanks
