Medicine - December 2007

I bought some fancy crackers that sounded yummy,and looked pretty. Nice for entertaining. Later on at home when I read the label,I found out one of the ingrediants are hemp seeds.I am in a profession that is subject to random drug testing.I am now afraid to eat these pretty crackers. A few months ago,a co-worker was fired for flunking a test. She hired a attonrney and got her job back. The rest of us got an E-mail saying we could not use Hemp as a excuse for failing a drug test,and that we were not to use ANY Hemp products. She used the Hemp defense and our employer closed the hole behind her. It was a fluke that I read the packet ingrediants,because the hemp was not in big letters.I cuold of naivly eaten them.This worries me. Please advise

I have to have a colonoscopy in a week. My doctor said to purchase a bowel cleanser from my local drugstore. Can anyone recommend a good colon cleanser that will empty my bowels? What have you taken prior to having a colonoscopy?

- And on the flip side, what can happen if you recieve too much anesthetic?
- Is it possible to make yourself 'die' during an operation, through holding your breath?
- Why does your body twitch when you are under? (Eye movements, face rolls around) even if you have had a muscle relaxant
- Is it possible to stay awake for major sugery (reconstructions, brain, transplants)
- Why do doctors sometimes have to make you "die" and make your blood pressure drop/freeze temperature ?

Thanks!!!!

Stress causes the brain to siganl the release of stress hormones, one of which being adrenaline/epinephrine. Adrenaline increases heart rate as part of the 'fight or flight' responce to stress. Would the easiest and cheapest way for me to measure stress be to measure heart rate? What device would i need? Where would i get the device, how much would it cost, etc.?

Thank you!

Have there been tests to see if there is any brain damage at all? I participated in a psychology research study earlier this year. It was only single-pulse TMS in this experiment, NOT repetitive.

Then why do so many Doctors advise so many people to take it for almost everything, isn't it either you need medication or you don't? Surely it is not right to recommend medication of any kind where for instance a cup of warm milk and honey will do the job just as well and even worse to recommend pain killer, however mild, when there is a remotest chance it will defer "very early symptoms" of a more serious illness and who except God himself can be absolutely sure on that point?

ive been taking minocycline for about 3 weeks, day and night.,and ive experienced a severe headache yesterday. i thought it was just because of a cold, but i ended up vomiting because i felt nauseous. im not sure if its a flu or a cold or if its a side effect... so i didnt take the pill for a day because i felt sick, and now im taking it again. i also feel very tired and a little dizzy after taking the pill everyday. Is this dangerous or is it normal?

So... there's the needle in the arm, the tubing, and then the vacutainer that you put tubes on, but how does the vacutainer work? Is it just like a valve?
