Medicine - December 2007

I know some medical procedures are harmful, like x-rays etc. What are the risks, if any, of getting an MRI?

Is my Doctor looking for something?
I see a pediatrician (I'm 13) and I have seen her ever since I was 4, but whenever I see her she always looks like she's looking for something on me. She just kind of looks at me. What can she tell by looking at me? My friend (who see's her also) say's that she could be seeing if your flushed, or pale or something but we're clueless and curious.

Be Serious. Most ideas gets best answer! Also, don't be afraid to put some medical term in there (I can google it) if you are a doctor or a nurse......Thank you!

And happy new year!

Also, I know I've posted this question before but I am not getting answers. Please do not answer if you've been one of the few people who answered before!

it is true that the youth today is more inclined towards engineering where one earns money in a shorter span of time. but has the earlier satisfaction of having cured a patient and having given new life to him, ceased to exist today or has this world become extremely materialistic?

A 28 year-old sewage-worker returns from a five-day hunting trip in Oklahoma with joint pain and swelling. He was in good health until he noticed knee pain and swelling three days ago. Since that time, he has also experienced pain and swelling in both wrists, and the right ankle. Two days ago he noticed an erythematous (red) rash with occasional pustules over his left wrist and left knee. He had a fever last night, and he had such severe night sweats that he had to change his bed-clothes. He has had a headache on and off for the past several years, but it seems worse now. He has a mild non-productive cough but no shortness of breath. He notes eating at a local restaurant one week ago where he had raw oysters. He has also indulged in some of the city’s best heroin and the pleasure that bear not speak its name (i.e., unprotected sex with prostitutes).

These usually take me 5 hours to figure out, so any help would be appreciated. :-)

Okay, so since the end of September, I was diagnosed with Epileptic seizures (Simple-Partial to be exact).

I just checked my heart beats per minute, and it was 98. My normal is 55-60, and I don't know why mine is so high.

I was just getting into bed from a relaxed day. Didn't do anything crazy, and I didn't work out today or anything. Just about to get into bed and felt like checking my heart.

I wasn't fully asleep. With my seizures, they found the like...the seizure activity when I was asleep (I had a 4 day EEG done).

Could this be it?

I'm worried.

It may be the seizure activity, but I don't feel my seizure symptoms, and I wasn't asleep before I checked my heart.

What could this be?

I do have an anxiety problem, but I haven't felt anxious all day.

Any ideas?

Thanks so much, guys!

Just curious. What happens if you use an enema once a day for several weeks? Does it kill you or something?
