Medicine - March 2007

I was farsighted and they corrected one eye so I wouldn't need reading glasses anymore. Well, it's been a week and my eyes are still confused. They can't see to read well enough without glasses and when I put reading glasses on I get a headache. I feel I may have made a mistake. How long does it take for eyes to adjust? Days, weeks, months??

He wants to know should she be in a hospital? I know normal is 120/80, and 140 is moderately high. 200 is extremely high, but to me does not mean on deaths doorstep, but she is on BP meds already. I think she should be checked out for why her BP is so high even on meds. Please, professionals only.

So I've taken a tablet of Ambien CR 6.25 mg, Melatonin 3mg, and Ibuprofen 200mg. I've been AWAKE all night long for 6 hours straight. This is different from most nights because I previously could fall asleep fine but just wake up through the night. Ambien CR seems to have the opposite effect on me. Anyone know what the deal is?

...is >10X more lasting than sex, what is the ultimate human pleasure?

is it one that lasts a long time, gives you the greatest sensation, or one that has least negative consequences?

What do you think about a source of pleasure that ultimately destructs, as does opiates and other narcotics especially taken in amounts past the prescription will cause respiratory arrest. Then that is why humans say sex is the ultimate pleasure because it is all natural, but then you see people who have engaged in it so much they look so haggard and enervated with peewee brain power due to the lack of fortitude of mental stamina required when engagin in sex.

that cover surgical steps by the surgeon, videos of actual surgeries, and even meds administered perioperatively.

Any videos libraries out there on the web on surgical procedures or even book c CD-ROM that is good.

Hello, I'm writting from Spain, recently I was circumcised by a medical mistake, I've been reading and practicyng about the "Foreskin Restoration" by manual methods but I don't like too much, now I've been reading about the "Prepucial Reconstruction", but the point is... a surgeon had say to me, that it wors well and you can recover the sensivity because the glans is cover again, Avoiding the contact with the clothing, and therefore wet which starts a deskeratinization proccess, but another one told me that it is only an esthetic question and it is not usefull to recover the sensitivity... what do you believe?, is there anyone here who had this experience?. Thank you for your help.
