Why my life s so boring,,,vry mch!?
Answer:
when i think of boredom, i think of not only things to occcupy my time, but how so many people out there arent bored. they arent bored because they are having surgery, getting cancer treatment, or cant get out of bed. maybe your situation applies, but try to think of how much worse off you could be. be happy for the breath you just took. go out and take a walk in the beautiful weather, the fresh air will cheer you up. there are people out there that care about you, and all you need to do is ask for some company. most people are more than willing to make time when asked. please dont be sad.and for the wench that said the comment about a 45, you know where you can shove it.
a .45 is cheaper than the oxygen u're takin from the rest of us... shoot yourself
because you have an infectious disease...?
Why must insulin be refrigerated?
something ive always wondered..
Answer:
Actually, that's a myth. I was told the same thing 14 years ago, when I found out I was an insulin-dependent diabetic. You really don't have to keep it refrigerated. Just avoid extreme heat or cold, because then the insulin can go bad. It's more a precaution than anything else.
Insulin has a half-life in which the chemicals break down over time. Keeping them refrigerated helps to slow that process.
actually, not all insulin must be refrigerated, and some can even be stable at room temperature up to 28 days, depending on the type and brand.the reason that it is typically refrigerated is that insulin is a protein. it is very likely to be broken down by the very solution it comes packaged in. high temperatures will increase the rate that the protein is broken down, so obviously low temperatures reduce the rate of its catabolism.
It doesn't have to be, but it only keeps about a month out of the refrigerator. Ask a pharmacist for the exact figures on this.
I use insulin in a pump and as soon as I buy it, I leave it out of the refrigerator. It is easier to fill the reservoir without getting bubbles. But before the pump I always left the insulin out of the refrigerator because when you inject cold insulin, it causes atrophy under the skin. Insulin only loses about 3% effectiveness at room temperature
Most if not all insulin's today can be keep out of the refrigerator for 28 to 30 days, the reason for refrigeration is the insulin will deteriorate (break down) if kept out longer.

Why most of enterobacteria in intestine r gram negative?
Answer:
why is the sky blue? (actually I know that one).
They just are, lol!
My dear, they are all gram negative! "Members of the Enterobacteriaceae are rod-shaped, and are typically 1-5 渭m in length. Like other Proteobacteria they have Gram-negative stains, and they are facultative anaerobes, fermenting sugars to produce lactic acid and various other end products."
Many members of this family are a normal part of the gut flora found in the intestines of humans and other animals, while others are found in water or soil, or are parasites on a variety of different animals and plants. Escherichia coli, better known as E. coli, is one of the most important model organisms and its genetics and biochemistry have been closely studied (wiki).
Hence, they just ARE gram Neg. be their habitat the soil or water or a gut.
gram negative bacterias grow in an acidic medium. in intestine matrix is acidic.so,be it.
BECAUSE THEY LIVE IN A NEGATIVE PLACE.
Why mosquitos suck blood?
Answer:
actually mosquitoes are vegetarians; their main food is plant sap;only the female needs animal blood; there is a protein in animal blood that the female mosquito needs to mature its eggs;

Why might I have uncomfortable feelings in my lower stomach?
Last month I was diagnosed with the HPV Virus. They said that it had already developed cancer cells, and I may have cervical cancer.
How does someone tell you that and not make an appt for a whole month! I have an appt but not until May 10th, and I have recently (the last few days) been getting cramps... Not really painful, but uncomfortable. Where is your cervix located from the outside of the body... The lower stomach? I looked up HPV and read about it and I have all the symptoms of this virus, including lower back pains (which is also happening as a result of this uncomfortable feeling).. Please give me some information, personal or otherwise. Thanks!
Answer:
in the dr office i work in we try to have people come back for a coloposcopy in about 3 or 4 weeks after an abnormal pap smear when the hpv has been detected.i am not sure if that is what you are having or just another pap smear which are both possibe depending on you dr. i think the cramps are unrelated to the cervix. maybe your nerves about the upcoming appt or an infection, vaginal or urinary. your cervix is attached to the bottom of your uterus which is in the far back of your vagina. this whole hpv thing is scaring alot of people who don't know much about it. the only people who are developing a serious cervical cancer are people not going for their pap test and not following up to abnormal paps. most women have hpv and don't even know it. you can have an abnormal pap and it may resolve itself do to irritation that was present at the time of your pap smear. your appt is coming up and they will answer all the questions you have. maybe ask you dr for more information about cervical changes and hpv. i know you will be fine take care.
you might have a bit of infection going on too =sorry you have to wait so long =it is hard to get into see a specialist any more= see your Dr and ask if there is something you can get to relieve the pain
Call the doctor and tell them what is happening to you and insist that you get an appointment ASAP. It doesn't seem that your doctor's office communicated with you as to why they set your appointment so far away. If you are experiencing so much discomfort, you need to take charge of your medical care and tell them that you want an appointment now!

Why isnt there a cure for asthma yet?
Im am asthmatic and im curoise as of why there is no cure yet.has their been any recent news about it or improvements, studies? i feel that people are not caring much for asthmatic people its hard you know!
Answer:
I know how you feel! Unfortunately, there are so many reasons people suffer from it and what triggers it, that it has to be treated on an individual basis. There are some great meds out their now. I saw an allergist, saw what I was mosty sensitive to, and started on shots. I took singulair and allegra on a daily basis for quite a while and it controled it where i did not refill my inhaler prescription for over 2 yrs.
I'm Sorry u have asthma, if it makes u feel any better I have it too and i'm pist off that there isn't a cure yet!
Not just with Asthma but with many cronic health issues, I believe that the profits the med companies make cause them to move vveerryy slowly toward a cure.
I know what your going through... The only thing I can say to answer this question is why isn't there a cure for cancer or the common cold? I guess we just don't have the technology.
How old are you? If you are still young, you might be able to overgrow it if you take proper care. I have come across quite a number of young children with asthma and they are ok now. I have a friend who cooked Crocodile meat for her daughter regularly and she is ok now. Maybe you can try it. Try to avoid taking cooling drinks or food.
I have asthma too! I take Advair morning and night. I take a spacer or Abutrol. It seperates your lungs or something like that.

Why isn't Exlax working for me??
I bought some exlax last night because I felt that I was a bit constipated. I was having 1 bowel movement about every other day and felt it was not sufficient. After waiting the 8 hours it鈥檚 supposed to take I felt nothing. I did get very bloated and very gassy. I had a small bowel movement this afternoon and It was kind of forced. I have been drinking tons of water "about 10 500ml water bottles, and eating a normal diet which includes fiber and fruits. I took 2 more pieces of exlax tonight and now I feel very bloated again even more gassier. I even feel like have a knot in my throat...I decided to stop taking the exlax since I does not seem to work. Just wondering why It didn't.. "Lost in constipation"
Answer:
According to my doctor, once every other day is completely normal. In fact, for some people, as infrequently as once per week is normal! However, if you are feeling particularly "uncomfortable," give Miralax a try. They just issued it for over-the-counter use. It comes in a bottle for about $10, and you mix it in with a glass of water.
all that exlax is going to hit you like a freight train. Don't stray too far from the bathroom. If by some chance the exlax still doesn't work, you can go to the pharmacy and buy this liquid for your bowels and i think it's called citroma. It's the most powerful stuff I've seen yet
When this does kick in, you may be up most of the night. Sometimes laxatives do not work immediately and can take up to 12 hours to get a bowel movement. I seriously think you may have a problem in a little while. Next time you want immediate results, buy a bottle of Magnesium Citrate at the drugstore, it costs $2.00 at the most. Drink the bottle and in one hour you usually get relief. It doesn't cramp you, but you will be completely cleaned out. Take it only when you know you will be home to use the toilet. I bought the Miralax and wasted my $12.00.
Try drinking some prune juice.
I would avoid ex-lax, it is an irritant...sounds like you are eating right, you may just need more fiber. Get some natural fiber like metemucil and use it regularly, meal time, maybe twice a day at first...I only use it once a day and it works fine...and if your stool is soft, you have no problem if you miss a day once in a while, you need a certain amount of food intake (bulk) to generate a bowel movement...
you know sometimes, if I get a little bloated or constipated, i asked my husband to massage my stomach from right to left, just to help the muscle and the intestine moves. it always works for me. have you pass gas during this time? if you did then your okay, ur intestines are moving properly. but if not yet, try
GAS-X, if after couple of hours and you took this medicine and still no gas or pass yet. then go to basic treatment castor oil. if still no pass, then i guess you have to call you doctor.
first of all for the feeling of bloated...i personally feel relief only after mixing a heaping spoonful of baking soda in a big coffee cup with cold water and mixing it good and chugging at least half then adding more water to it and finishing it..its dangerous if you mix more than that or dont have it diluted enough..it can blow you up literally..if you decied to try this dont lie down but rather walk or jog in place until you beltch..(and believe me you will).but after you beltch.ahhhhh bloated is a thing of the past my friend....as for the constipation try using epsom salt insted..follow the instructions on the box.(its made for constipation relief) along with sore aches n pains. hope this works for you..i recommed the baking soda for sure it works fast and its only thing that works that well for me..peace

Why is your sugar count higher in the morning?
Answer:
Your body constantly releases a steroid (cortisol) to help keep it's functions in balance. One of the effects of this steroid is that it can raise your blood sugar. Almost everybody has a spike in this steroid production in the early morning before you wake up. This is probably why you have a higher count in the morning. This is called the Dawn Phenomenon.There is a slight chance that you are going too low at night and not noticing it. Your body then works to raise your blood sugar and this will make it higher than normal. This can be risky because people may try to take more long acting insulin at night, which would actually make their count go even lower than before. This effect seems to lessen the longer people are diabetic.To find out what is going on, try setting your clock for early in the morning once in a while to test your blood. If it is enough of a problem, make sure to talk to your doctor or diabetes educator.
I had a high glucose level in my blood test and they decided I might be diabetic, so I had to return for the test. Thankfully all was normal so the reason stated 'You have a slow metabolism!' I then took up Pilates, exercise and no further problem.
One reason that your sugar rises in the morning is that your liver produces glucose for your body as morning approaches. I'm not sure what regimen you are on but when I was taking NPH at bedtime, it never lasted long enough until morning time. If I took too much of it then it would peak around 3am and I would have reactions. I have since switched to Lantus and Humalog. The Lantus at night really does a good job at stabilizing the sugars for up to 24 hours. If you're not already taking it I would talk to your doctor about it.
I was told at my diabetes classes that when you sleep at night your liver still produces sugar. I was told to eat a snack before bed so that the food in my system would absorb that extra sugar and keep my levels where they should be.
It sounds like you have dawn phenomenon, I have that also, please check out website below, it will explain what you should do. I hope this helps.
Why is this happening?
I have had my period on the 19th of April and had sex on the 25th of April. Im having severe cramps like menstrual cramps on an off for the past 3 days I dont know if this is a early sign of pregnancy and its too early to test but I havent had cramps like this but my cycle is less than 28 days.
Answer:
Did you start your period on the 19th? If so, the 25th would probably be too soon to get pregnant. You usually ovulate about 14 days after you start your period.
get pregnancy test

Why is there such things as illnesses?
I really wonder why we always get sick and have to sit through hours of injections. Why can't they just make one injection that makes us immune to illnesses?
Answer:
For check and balance.

S o that we can appreciate good health.
It would be good for all patients if a universal serum can cure all viruses. But with millions of viruses are being created medically and naturally, If would be impossible to develop such serum.

Why is there ST segment shortening in hypercalemia?
Answer:
calcium helps in all muscle function, including heart. in hypercalcemia, the heart will contract abnormally, in fact can stop completely.
Well..this is going to be long, sorry. A tall peaked and symmetrical T wave is the first change seen on the ECG in a patient with hyperkalemia. There is progressive slowing of impulse conduction through the myocardium as the hyperkalemia becomes more severe, causing the PR interval to lengthen and the QRS duration to increase. The P wave may disappear as a result of atrial standstill or arrest; however, sinus node activity can persist without resulting in atrial activation. The latter occurs because the impulse generated by the sinus node may travel to the AV node along specialized intraatrial or internodal tracts, rather than through the atrial myocardium which has become unexcitable. Ultimately the QRS widens further due to a severe conduction delay and may become "sine wave," resulting in ventricular standstill and a flat line on the ECG with complete absence of electrical activity. This progression of ECG changes does not correlate well with the actual potassium level.It's a lil different with hypokalemia...but it's similar to hyperkalemia in that hypokalemia produces changes on the ECG thats not necessarily related to the serum potassium level. There is depression of the ST segment, decrease in the amplitude of the T wave, and an increase in the amplitude of U waves which occur at the end of the T wave . U waves are often seen in the lateral precordial leads V4-V6 and indicate an electrolyte imbalance.

Why is there an upper age limit to being a bone marrow donor?
One of my college professors has a grandson needing a bone marrow donation. The grandson's name is Ethan Powell.See link: http://www.ethanpowell.com/I got on the list in Phoenix years ago.

Why is there alcohol in most lotions?
In my experiences, you have to make specifically sure that there is no alcohol in the lotions you buy because it dries out your skin, whereas the lotion is supposed to moisturize your skin. In the chemicals in the lotions, why would they put two adversely reacting chemicals together like that?
Answer:
Isopropyl alcohol is used in those lotions as a suspending agent. Without it, the lotion would 'clump up', in most cases. Also, alcohol dries natural oils from the skin. The general idea is that the volume of lotion overrides the volume of alcohol, especially due to the fact that the alcohol evaporates and dissapates quite rapidly. There are water-based lotions now, however, which are more cutaniously friendly than isopropanol.
like you said alcohol dries out your skin, there for you will use there product more just like chap stick
So your skin dries out and you will have to use more lotion, so your skin dries out and you have to use more lotion, so your skin dries out and you have to use more lotion.
to allow the active ingredients to dry and adhere to the skin.
Why would you buy most lotions over the counter anyway when they contain toxic chemicals? You rub your hands with the lotion and put it on your body and all those toxic chemicals are absorbed your skin and get into your blood stream etc.

Why is the oparation area difficult to heal for cancer patient?
It has been three month after the operation, but until now the wound is not yet heal. The patient is having breast cancer third stage.
Answer:
Failure to heal probably has more to do with a patients age and overall health. Children and younger adults seem to heal faster than older adults.My son who has a stage IV abdominal sarcoma has had three major surgeries. Two abdominal surgeries and a thoracic surgery. He has had hyperthermic chemoperfusion with cytoreductive surgery and was out of the hospital within 8 days. He had major surgery a few weeks ago and they replaced 90 percent of his diaphragm. He was out of the hospital within 6 days. So, in general younger people seem to heal faster . .within a few weeks of surgery. In fact when we were discussing this with his doctors they all planned his next treatment within two weeks after surgery. His wound is now completely healed.I do not know in your patient why it is taking so long for the wound to heal. Is it possible that the patient has an infection preventing the healing? Is this an older person? If it is than it may take longer to heal. Is the person in good overall health or does she have other health issues that might prevent healing?Good luck. I hope she is feeling better soon.
this is normal because of the meds and/or chemo/radiation
Because of chemo and the cancer, the white blood cells are low and it causes the body to heal slower after a cut or surgery. Keep all doctor appointments and the doc should be able to help if there is something more serious going on.
Longer to heal due to the chemo/radiation and most importantly the immune system is compromised. It is therefore important that the patient have adequate nutrition and supplements to try to help the healing process.
because after an operation if there is cancer, and the person has had the radiation(I'm so sorry i forgot the term) therapy, it weakens their immune system, and therefore the person cannot recover as fast. At least, that's what my Grandma says.
It depends - before or after chemo. your Q is too general.
Is the patient diabetic?
If she had chemo before the surgery she will have a harder time healing b/c of the chemo breaking down her body's ability to heal itself as fast.

Answer:
Don't dry crank your shaft. Use more grease, if you know what I mean.
There are a number of possibilities for this one;Firstly, sexually transmitted diseases often bring painful discharge, along with shooting pains and problems urinating. Masturbation will not generate spots or flaky skin - you do not say what type of spots, was there discharge?Of course with any medical condition/problem, trying to be accurate with diagnosis is impossible via these means - if it is still happening after a week, you have no choice, off to the doctor you must go.
Ok so i probably dont know that much about having a penis, but maybe i can help. first dont get overly worried. that wont help. are you sure that she was a virgin? if yes, try keeping it moisturized. if that does not make it go away, maybe you should go to the dr. try lotion when you masturbate. that might help. also, a penis is just like any other part of your body and it cant get dry and flakey. like i said, i dont know if this helps at all, but i wish you the best of luck.
Sounds to me that your virgin partner possibly had or has the starts of a yeast infection. It is very possible to spread a yeast infection to a male! For treatment I recommend monistat which you can you can buy over the counter. Apply to affected area of the penis twice a day until clear! Hope this helps!
well if the virgin girl was uh. . . unno ---
if there was not enuff lubrication maybe you gots a rugburn type thingor. . . perhaps you have a case of mongolian root rot - of which there is no cure

Why is the current round of colds/sore throats in the UK so virilent?
could it be linked to the oil seed rape pollen in local field cash crops
Answer:
I,m just getting over it 5 days of fealing like **** but ok now
don;t know, i am fine, but i know that rape seed pollen sets my hayfever off when nothing else does.
I think they come in with all of the asylum seakers and from the influx of eastern Europeans.
Too many picking up the bugs overseas and bringing them back into the country.It would be better if it is only the oil seed rape and not a viral infection.Both will play havoc and can cause respiratory problems, but the rape will be going to seed shortly and problems should pass.
don't know what is going on but my 17yr old son has just spent 5 days in hospital with a very bad case of tonsillitis and he is 6 foot 2 and a very fit 14 stone.it was so bad they thought he had meningitis
It's has to do with the population being more compacted into a smaller area than most places and the closer genetic lines shared amongst people in the U.K.

It's a twelve minute test , basically done with litmus paper and a few drops of the persons blood, and can tell you if you are HIV positive instead of waiting three to four weeks for results. It can also be used for other things as Sandy below me has stated. But in general it is used as I said ,as a quick means to a HIV test...
