can anyone tell me what carpal tunnel is and how it feels? For the last week my thumb has been cramping up and twitching and all day when i type i have to stop and stretch my fingers because it cramps up right below my thumb where their is soft tissue. Sometimes it cramps so bad i cant get my thumb to straighten up.

I have a sore and tense shoulder and neck for the past 10 days. It is especially sore right where the shoulder meets the neck. When I touch the area it feels as though it is bruised. I also have the need to crack on my neck on that side now, which I never did before. A hot compress or massages do not seem to help it. Can this be related to depression or is it likely more severe? ( I was diagnosed with clinical depression this year) I cannot recall any repetive movements that I make and I do not work. PS: I am seeing a massage therapist for the first time in a couple weeks but I would like some relief until then.

I mean under normal (although that in itself is a variable from person to person, so therefore slightly misleading) but… Anyways, back to my question, under normal conditions, such as not running or such, on average how long does it take your blood to circulate fully throughout your system?

I have had a tense neck and shoulder for about 10 days now. It is only sore on the left side but the right side is a little bit tender as well. the top of my left shoulder feels like im "bruised" when I touch it and it most hurts when I am sitting up straight. I also have the need to crack my neck every morning on that side to relieve stiffness (I never really cracked my neck before this). Do you have any suggestions to relieve pain or treat this? Know what could cause it? I am an 18 year old female.

Why is my lower eyelid twitching? I have noticed it before, and it always seems to go away after a week or two. Is it just stress? I don't really feel that stressed out all the time.

I'm a junior in High School. I want to be a CRNA, I want to know if this is a good plan. I want to go to Worcester State College and get my registered nurse degree. During that time, I'm going to do observation as required for a year at a local hospital. Then after 4 years in that college, I want to go to a program that offers Nurse Anesthesia, most likely I will go to Buffalo State College for 2 years. Sounds good? Will it work?

How does it take the colour off (technically speaking)?
& And why does the hair look so damaged afterwards?
Can good creams and oils fix this?
And will it differ from one brand to another ?

Just curious cause I think I already had 3 months of it.

If the doctor diagnoses me with IBS, then he asks to do colonoscopy. I think it's quite expensive! How much does it cost?

I am always fidgeting during the day and when I go to bed it doesn't change. I roll around and tap my foot on the edge of the bed. I can't seem to settle down or slow my brain down. I don't drink coffee or take any stimulants. What will make me drift off? BTW, I don't like meds.

I went to the eye doctor four months ago for a checkup and got new glasses and everything checked out clear and perfect (aside from needing stronger lenses). However, for the past three weeks I've been getting double vision and having trouble focusing on things. Could it just be allergies?

i am a 37 year old female

i had Gastric Bypass Surgery in 2001, i lost 180 lbs.

i now have alot of skin hanging on my arms, upper and lower legs, chin, thighs, rear end, boobs, etc... This gives me alot of back problems carrying this excess fat. I have osteoarthritic on my L4 & L5 vertebrae & some disk space at L5-S1. I am in pain constantly.

State covers having Gastric Bypass surgery but not the complete body lift. carrying all this excess skin is hard for me everyday. Exercise does not help, joined a spa and it was to hard to do arm and leg lifts with the skin.

I have been to 3 different doctors and all 3 said i have to pay for a body lift, which is over 25,000.00, i dont have it. 1 doctor even said to the HMO that it was medically neccessary and i still didn't get approved.

My question is where do i go? What can I do? Is there a doctor out there that covers this proceedure? Willing to travel. I have Americhoice, Medicaid, & Medicare
