I feel like I am in a fog and don't know where I am. Acording to my doctors my symptoms sould have subsided by now. I can't focus and my vision is blurry too. Could It be more than a concussion? And If it is just a concussion what exactly is a concussion thanks in advanced.

I had a gastric bypass 7 years ago. I lost over 150 lbs. and kept it off! I feel great with the exception of a lot of extra skin around my abd., breasts, arms and rear. My ins. refuses to cover the surgery stating that it is "cosmetic" rather than "reconstructive". They obviously did not look at the pictures of my disfigured mid section. I am looking for a Dr. or teachin hosp., who will be interested in doing pro bono, or reduced cost surgery. In exchange I would be willing to be photographed or video taped, before, during, and after. I am a designer at a printing co. and would put together promotional piece(s), printed and mailed to a list of bariatric patients in the area or accross the country, to showcase the work. I have encountered many people who NEED these surgeries to resume normal lives, patients who are interested in having their bodies refined as well. It could probably even be written of as an advertising expense. Please advise.

I went out for sushi last night and ate around 9pm. At midnight I felt some cramping but then it went away (or didn't hurt too much).

I woke up at 3:30 am feeling terrible, my stomach hurt so much, I couldn't use my stomach muscles to get up, and I couldn't feel a comfortable in any position-Finally I took a PeptoBismol and fell asleep even though the pain never went away.

Now I've been up since 6:30, and my stomach is still very sore/cramped. I'm blaming it on the sushi because thats the only thing I can think of. I took another Pepto but what else can I do?

I have a hair appointment at 10:30, an interview at 1, and I have to pack because I'm leaving for Vancouver tomorrow...

What do you think this is and how can I make it better?

I've been smearing olive oil on my face before sleep for health values. I've noticed that I've been sleeping better ever since I've done that. Does Olive oil help in that case or is it purely coincidental ?

Thanks

I have always suffered from mouth ulcers, and noticed lately I have had more when i've eaten tomatoes. I love tomatoes, but i did one of those chinese allergy tests once which told me I had an allergy to them? I dismissed it, but maybe it was right! Anyone else had similar problems?

i get really bad leg cramps--- sitting for a little while...only a couple of minutes and my leg goes numb and a horrible cramp sets in. ...after a while the pins nd needles set in....
but the cramps are awwful.

i went to the doctor.... (he wasnt v.helpful- never is).... he said it was normal.... bcus of arteries becoming compressed.... however i asked around noone suffers from pains like i have.....


i was reading on the net... about some salt deficiency...

anyone else have similarcramps....
you can't describe the pain maybe that was why the doctor thought it was normal... he thought it was normal numbness and pins and needles for sitting on your leg too long!

but its pain from keeping your leg stationary.....and the pain ...is like your muscles pulling taut. not only your calf muscles but all...from the buttocks.

anyone got any ideas what this can be?

I used to get rotocaps in the UK. I see they are no longer available there. I have been in the US for 15 years and about 10 years ago the Pharmacies here started telling me they could not get the rotocaps. I started using an inhaler which uses a propellant. Now those are being banned. They were never as good as the rotocaps anyway.

Thank you

I need to partake in a drug test to get a job as an assistant pharmacy tech.

I recently had major leg surgery on May 2nd. I was placed on Hydrocondone pain medication. Ive been on these for about 4 weeks now and this week Ive stopped them.

Are these considered a drug and show up on my test? Also, how do they perform the drug test?

Thank you

I took the class and test last may, but i did not opt to get the card, as it was $5, and i didn't have cash. But I passed the test, and my teacher told me that I would be added to a registry..

Question is, where can i find this 'registry'? I need to prove that i've taken and passed the course/test for a job promotion.. I thought there would be someplace online that I could print out evidence.. any help?

I did it on a .gov website and it said this;

Results
Based on the height and weight entered, the BMI is 12.9, placing the BMI-for-age below the 1st percentile for girls aged (Age edited out, you don't need to know how old I am). This child is underweight and should be seen by a healthcare provider for further assessment to determine possible causes of underweight.
