Other - Health - March 2007

I am almost in tears. I have been having some digestive issues and bad bad bad canker sores for as long as I can remember.

Today I went to a naturopath. I went into the office feeling very optomistic and excited. I left in tears. The naturopath asked about my symptoms and did an exam. Then he gave me a list of tests he recommends. He recommended:
food sensitivity testing ($80.00)
food allergy test ($300.00)
comprehensive disgestive stool analysis ($450.00)
neurotransmitter test ($290.00)

I can't afford that! That's just crazy. I really really really need relief of these symptoms but now I don't know what to do. Any words of wisdom?

I get random spasms in my eyebrow every once in a while. I have a twitch currently, that's been around for about 15 minutes. It's incredibly distracting and annoying, but painless. What can cause these spasms to occur?

I did peel off the potato, it is fresh and I cut all of the "holes" on it. I blended the potato with 2 bananas, 2 kiwis,some almonds and milk, made smoothes...I then drank about 450 ml of the smoothes... I didn't know that uncooked potato is poisonous! :( Am I dying??

For the past week (all 7 days), I've been having trouble getting enough sleep. I usually wake up and 3 am and it seems like after that I just can't go back to sleep or I'll continuously wake up. I've tried relaxing music and even taking Tylenol PM before bed, but nothing really seems to be working and the lack of sleep is really catching up with me.

I was thinking of getting some sort of sleeping pill - but I thought I'd see if anyone else had any other suggestions first.

Okay...until my boyfriend gets home so I can consult with him I need someone to help me figure out what I need to do with this problem. Thirty minutes ago...I opened up a can of a certain good(won't say right now)....when i finished cooking the good...I felt something weird with the fork....when moved the food around....I noticed something weird in the food. It was in no way shape or form...what was supposed to be in the can. I took it out the pan...put it on the counter. It looks like a piece of skin....like someone got their hand caught in a blade at the deli and it shaved a few layer off. Right now..it's chillin on the counter. the food is still in the pan...I haven't touched it. I don't know what to do? Call the health department or something....it's ******* nasty and I really think this is something that needs to be taken care of immediately. I need to know what that was in the pan....help me please.

I am a type 1 (insulin dependant) diabetic of 12 years. I am a mother of 3 baby girls. My 2nd child has been excessively aggitated lately so last night I took her blood sugar to see what it was. It was about midnight and she hadn't had much to eat all day and her sugar was 69 which to me would be just barely out of range on the low side. I fed her a good size helping of rice and chicken (which obviously has a lot of carbs) and she went to sleep. About 11:30 this morning I checked it again and again she had had nothing to eat yet. It was 63. Again, low. Please keep in mind that she is not on and high blood sugar correcting medication. Wouldn't you think that if she is diabetic it would be sky high after eating all that rice and no insulin? Is this a normal blood sugar for infants? (She is 14 months) Do you think she could just be hypoglacemic? I need opinions.... Thanks

Before anyone suggests this, I already have called her pediatrition and am waiting for their call.

A neighbour's young daughter had reached the age where she was left to attend to brushing her teeth unsupervised.
One evening she seemed to be taking an extraordinary long time.
When her Mother was on the way upstairs she met the daughter coming out of the bathroom.
On enquiring about the delay she was told "I've cleaned my teeth; and I've cleaned Scamper's teeth too".
Horrified her mother tried to be firm and complimentary at the same time; explaining that the girl should not use her toothbrush on the dog.
"That's alright, mummy"; she said; "I used yours"
