Q: When would medical guidelines (eg NICE) be intentionally not followed when prescribing, for the patients good
Eg. BTS chronic asthma steps not strictly adhered to, NICE guidelines not followed etc, and the justification for such action.

A: Medical practitioners have always had the option to prescribe a drug off-label. That is not for the purpose approved by the FDA. Many drugs have multiple uses and side effects. An example of a drug prescribed for its side effect is Erythromycin prescribed to diabetics who suffer from gastroparesis. This would be considered off label. It works very well and has been used for such treatment for more than 50 years. The medical community has changed and now use of off-label medications now carries such a greater risk of malpractice and other headaches for the practitioner that many doctors are afraid to continue a priveldge they have held for a long time. Guidelines are just that, guidelines. In many circumstances, especially because the physician knows the patient well, is aware of allergic reactions, susceptibilities to side effects, compliance, etc., he or she may chose to prescribe or treat the patient differently because the treatment will be more effective.

Q: Why is more Mercury allowed in Flu shots than what is legally allowed in a dump?
Atlanta, GA -- A prominent ad in today’s Atlanta Journal-Constitution sponsored by parents and friends of children injured by mercury in vaccines demands that a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advisory committee require complete removal of mercury from vaccines. The ad’s sponsors note that according to Environmental Protection Agency guidelines, a person must weigh over 500 pounds to safely absorb the amount of mercury contained in a single flu vaccine and that special hazardous waste sites are required for flu shot disposal. To develop national vaccine guidelines, the CDC follows the advice of the 15-member Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) (www.cdc.gov/nip/ACIP/members.htm). To date, ACIP has refused to fulfill promises made by the government, physician organizations, and President Bush to remove thimerosal from all vaccines. “Mercury should never have been in vaccines in the first place. The fact that it remains in vaccines seven years after explicit promises were made to take it out amounts to government footdragging that puts children at serious risk of injury,“ according to Vicky Debold, PhD, public health nurse and mother of a vaccine-injured child. A growing number of scientists are finding that the type of low-dose mercury in vaccines kills and injures brain and immune cells. “Considering that so many children now suffer from learning disabilities and a host of immune-mediated illnesses such as asthma and diabetes, the practice of injecting mercury into our nation’s most vulnerable is barbaric,” said Dr. Debold. The ad also points out that most flu shots and some other vaccines contain 50,000 parts per billion mercury, despite requirements that landfill waste contain less than 200 parts per billion. “Directly injecting humans with a powerful neurotoxin flies in the face of common sense. With growing research from leading universities further confirming the neurotoxic effects of mercury exposure from vaccines, the ACIP must consider the best interests of our children and put an end to this dangerous and unnecessary exposure,” commented Dr.. Debold.

A: Basically the reason they do it...is: When Mercury is injected into your body, you, for the rest of your adult life.....sort of act as a THERMOMETER. With uncanny accuracy you can now tell the ambient temperatue in any environment within approximately 4 degrees, Farenheight or Celcius. It's incredible. I've gotta go.....I feel a "Chill" coming on.

Q: Isn't this whole global warming panic about pollution?
Now they are saying the pollution in China is ok...WHAT? check this out. BEIJING (AP)—The International Olympic Committee’s chief medical official expressed confidence Tuesday that air pollution will not pose a major risk to athletes and visitors at the Beijing Games. Arne Ljungqvist, chairman of the IOC medical commission, said the committee is evaluating the city’s air quality based on standards set by the World Health Organization. “Those standards are fairly tough to meet, but in many respects the Beijing area does so,” Ljungqvist said on the opening day of the IOC’s three-day session. “I’m sure, I’m confident the air quality will not prove to pose major problems to the athletes and to the visitors in Beijing.” Still some American track cycling athletes arrived in China’s capital on Tuesday wearing face masks. “You got to take every chance you have just to protect the airways,” Michael Friedman said. “It’s really just taking every precaution necessary. Who knows how bad it’s going to be in a few days so if you can resist any air pollution, any contaminants, then you know it’s better performance hopefully.” ADVERTISEMENT But Ljungqvist stressed there was no need for athletes to wear anti-smog masks unless they suffer from asthma or similar respiratory ailments. “I am certain that it was in no way intended to be disrespectful,” U.S. Olympic Committee spokesman Darryl Seibel said. “It is an athlete’s choice. However, it didn’t seem to be necessary today.” Beijing’s polluted air has been one of the biggest worries for Olympic organizers and prompted drastic measures earlier this month that included pulling half the city’s 3.3 million vehicles off the road, halting most construction and closing some factories in the capital and surrounding provinces. The IOC will receive data every hour to monitor the situation throughout the Aug. 8-24 games. “We will evaluate those and, should problems arise, we may have to take some action,” Ljungqvist said. The IOC has said outdoor endurance events, such as the marathon and road cycling race, could be postponed and rescheduled should smog levels be too high. On Tuesday, Beijing was shrouded in a light gray haze. Ljungqvist said he met with the WHO’s local representative three days ago who expressed concern over the “exaggeration of the problem that has been seen in the media.” Ljungqvist said the WHO standard was meant only as a guideline for protecting the long-term health of local residents, not for temporary visitors such as Olympic athletes and visitors. “That is a totally different matter,” he said. “To come to a city even though the air quality (might be) inferior, the long-term effects should no longer be feared by temporary visitors.” Ljungqvist said the WHO has three standards for measuring air quality, and Beijing comes under the interim target for developing cities and countries. He said athletes in Beijing will face the same conditions of high heat and humidity that were prevalent in Atlanta in 1996 and Athens in 2004. “The mist in the air that we see in those places, including here, is not a feature of pollution primarily but a feature of evaporation and humidity,” Ljungqvist said. “We do have a communication problem here. Once the misconception has become sort of established in the minds of people, it’s not that easy to get the right message through.” At a separate news conference, Ljungqvist said air-quality readings from 27 measurement sites around Beijing since July 27 offered “encouraging” results. “Although the two first days suggested some measurements a little above the interim target, they have now gone down, and we are steadily below the interim target,” he said.

A: Who said anything about pollution? It's about CO2 (or simply: The air we breath)....regulators believe they've devised a system to tax it.

AUTISM Isolated in worlds of their own, people with autism appear indifferent and remote and are unable to form emotional bonds with others. Although people with this baffling brain disorder can display a wide range of symptoms and disability, many are incapable of understanding other people's thoughts, feelings, and needs. Often, language and intelligence fail to develop fully, making communication and social relationships difficult. Many people with autism engage in repetitive activities, like rocking or banging their heads, or rigidly following familiar patterns in their everyday routines. Some are painfully sensitive to sound, touch, sight, or smell. Children with autism do not follow the typical patterns of child development. In some children, hints of future problems may be apparent from birth. In most cases, the problems become more noticeable as the child slips farther behind other children the same age. Other children start off well enough. But between 18 and 36 months old, they suddenly reject people, act strangely, and lose language and social skills they had already acquired. As a parent, teacher, or caregiver you may know the frustration of trying to communicate and connect with children or adults who have autism. You may feel ignored as they engage in endlessly repetitive behaviors. You may despair at the bizarre ways they express their inner needs. And you may feel sorrow that your hopes and dreams for them may never materialize. But there is help-and hope. Gone are the days when people with autism were isolated, typically sent away to institutions. Today, many youngsters can be helped to attend school with other children. Methods are available to help improve their social, language, and academic skills. Autism is found in every country and region of the world, and in families of all racial, ethnic, religious, and economic backgrounds. Emerging in childhood, it affects about 3 or 4 people in every thousand and is three to four times more common in boys than girls. Girls with the disorder, however, tend to have more severe symptoms and lower intelligence. THE TOLE is dedicated to understanding the workings and inter-relationships of the various regions of the brain, and to developing preventive measures and new treatments for disorders like autism that handicap people in school, work, and social relationships and brain damage or vegetable. Up-to-date information on autism and treatment result for autistic is the role of THE TOLE in identifying underlying causes and effective treatments are available in our Autism Herbs Treatment Cure- The Tole Main Page.: Also described are symptoms and diagnostic procedures, treatment options, strategies for coping, and sources of information and support.

What is ADHD? ADHD often prevents children from learning and socializing well. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD) refer to a range of problem behaviors associated with poor attention span. These may include impulsiveness, restlessness and hyperactivity, as well as inattentiveness, and often prevent children from learning and socializing well. ADHD is sometimes referred to as hyper kinetic disorder. What are the symptoms of ADHD Attention difficulties A child must have exhibited at least six of the following symptoms for at least six months to an extent that is unusual for their age and level of intelligence. Fails to pay close attention to detail or makes careless errors during work or play. Fails to finish tasks or sustain attention in play activities. Seems not to listen to what is said to him or her. Fails to follow through instructions or to finish homework or chores (not because of confrontational behavior or failure to understand instructions). Disorganized about tasks and activities. Avoids tasks like homework that require sustained mental effort. Loses things necessary for certain tasks or activities, such as pencils, books or toys. Easily distracted. Forgetful in the course of daily activities. Hyperactivity A child must have exhibited at least three of the following symptoms for at least six months to an extent that is unusual for their age and level of intelligence. Runs around or excessively climbs over things Unduly noisy in playing, or has difficulty in engaging in quiet leisure activities. Leaves seat in classroom or in other situations where remaining seated is expected. Fidgets with hands or feet or squirms on seat.

Blurts out answers before the questions have been completed. Fails to wait in lines or await turns in games or group situations. Interrupts or intrudes on others, e.g. jump into others conversations or games. Talks excessively without appropriate response to social restraint. Pervasiveness of attention difficulties and hyperactivity For a diagnosis or description of ADHD a child would be expected to show the above difficulties in more than one setting, e.g. at school and at home. Problems are not shown 'at home' but are very evident when a child goes to a hospital department. This can happen when parents do not realize that their child's behavior is out of the normal range (perhaps because they have no other children, or they have other children who behave similarly). It may also be because the problems are mild, or because the family has handled the attention lack at home in such a way that it is not evident there is a major problem, or because the child is very young. In those cases it is quite reasonable for parents not to consider that their child has an attention deficit problem. These conditions has a good chance to be treated, it will take time and effort to do it. The Tole's way of remedies for them is not easy and tedious, the good part is it works with many of them. Some adults that just have AD should be able to recovers too with our Remedies. The Tole's Brain Powder Autism ADHD Treatment for all special kids Treatment.

Talks excessively without appropriate response to social restraint. ADHD or Others causes Epileptic seizures can cause a child to become drowsy, impairing their attention. Epilepsy can also cause unusual behavior and lead to abnormal perceptions. Hearing problems such as deafness or glue ear can make it hard for a child to follow instructions and make them appear inattentive. Reading problems, making it hard to complete tasks or follow instructions. Obsessive compulsive disorder leads to people following strange rituals that preoccupy their thoughts and distract their attention. Tourette's syndrome involves repetitive, involuntary jerking movements of the body and sudden outbursts of noise or swearing. Autism and Asperger's syndrome often lead to difficulties in understanding and using language. Prolonged periods of insufficient sleep, causing poor concentration. Some children may be very active or be easily distracted or have difficulty concentrating. If these behaviours are relatively mild, they should not be considered a disorder. Others difficulties that occurs alongside Autism ADHD ADHD often occurs alongside other difficulties and is not the sole cause of problem behavior. Children may exhibit temper tantrums, sleep disorders, and be clumsy. Other behavioral problems that occur with ADHD include: confrontational defiant behavior, which occurs in most of these kids. The child loses their temper, argues and refuses to comply with adults and deliberately annoys others. conduct disorders occur in at least 25 per cent of children. The child may be destructive or show deceitful behavior such as lying, breaking rules and stealing. specific learning difficulties, including dyslexia, occur in 25-30 per cent of children. severe clinical depression occurs in about 30 per cent of children. anxiety disorders occur in 30 per cent of children. What causes ADHD? Biological Temperamental, as this contributes to their attitude and personality. Twins suggest a genetic link to ADHD. In 80-90 per cent of identical twins where one has ADHD so does the other. Recent research also suggests there is a greater chance of inheriting the condition from male relatives such as grandfathers and uncles. Brain injuries due to birth trauma or pre-birth problems. The brain structures believed to be linked to the development of ADHD are vulnerable to hypoxic damage during birth. The damage is caused by inadequate oxygen (QI flow) reaching parts of the brain while blood flow is reduced. Environmental conditions: Family stress. Educational difficulties. ADHD diagnosis Observations to the assessment of a child with possible ADHD. There is no single diagnostic test for ADHD so different sorts of information needs to be gathered, such as the following: History of symptoms The precise nature of the difficulties, when they were first noticed, in what situations they occur, factors that exacerbate or relieve them. Medical history Risk factors that could predispose the child to ADHD include difficulties and risks in pregnancy and during birth, for example if the mother was in poor health, very young or drank alcohol or smoked or had an extended or complicated labor. Several medical conditions are known to be associated with ADHD. These include fragile-X syndrome, fetal alcohol syndrome, G6PD deficiency, phenylketonuria and generalized resistance to thyroid hormone. Accidents, operations and chronic medical conditions such as epilepsy, asthma and heart, liver and kidney disorders all need to be taken in to account. Also of possible relevance is any medication the child is taking, as well as any adverse reactions they have had to medication in the past. Past psychiatric history: Enquiring about any mental health problems the child has had can help rule out depression or anxiety being behind the symptoms. Educational history: This means the level of their ability and what specific difficulties they have, how they function within their peer group and get on with teachers, and any behavior difficulties such as suspensions or exclusions. Family history: The mental and physical health of the child's parents and other family members can be relevant, particularly regarding the incidence of ADHD or depression. Less then 1% ahs the family history but this is one of the research data base. Social assessment: The family's social circumstances, such as housing, poverty, and social support may all have an impact on the child's behavior. Less then 4 % has this problem but it should be taken into consideration. What treatment is available for ADHD?

A: I think that this like many other things that have come and gone in the past years is unfortunatly not a cure. People are always claiming that a diet or something is going to cure autism. I work with children with autism and I've never heard about this working. I know 5 years ago when they thought vaccines may be causing autism it was all over the news. I think if it did it would be on the news and all over the place - because a cure for autism would be a big deal. This may be a good treatment for some children but I don't think cure is the right word. (This of course is just my personal opinion and it would never hurt to try a new treatment)

Q: WORLD Allergy Day is Not a Day of Celebration...But rather a Declaration of WAR !?
For Years… and even Today, ALLERGIES have been swept under the Medical Care RUG and regarded as a Trivial Nuisance to be Tolerated. However, Today’s Parent cannot open a Newspaper or turn on the TV without seeing / hearing about ALLERGIES and ASTHMA. Dr. Bock’s Book: Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma & Allergies speaks DIRECTLY to the common Thread that Chemical, FOOD and Environmental InHalant ALLERGIES play in Today’s Childhood Epidemic Diseases. As a Parent, Family History of ALLERGY is the Greatest Risk Factor in predicting ALLERGY Disease Presence. It is Important to know that ALLERGY is a Cumulative, Progressive Chronic Disease. Typically, beginning with FOOD Allergies in early Childhood and migrating to Environmental InHalant ALLERGY, UnTreated Mild to Severe ALLERGY continues / Exacerbates .. Leading to unabated Disease Progression and a LifeTime, Slippery Slope of further recalcitrant Diseases and Health Complications. Further, beyond the numerous Physical Ailments / Diseases as a result of Allergy, More and more EveryDay… Medical Professionals are crystallizing the causal effects of a Compromised Immune & GastroIntestinal System as a result of Environmental and FOOD Allergy with various Emotional and Behavioral Issues ( Book: BRAIN Allergies / Dr. William Philpott ). Today’s ALLERGY = Tomorrow’s Allergic ASTHMA. Today is WORLD Allergy Day …. But rather than being a DAY of Celebration .. It is a Declaration of WAR Against ALLERGY and all the recalcitrant Diseases and Health Complications that result due to its NonTreatment. ALLERGIES Insidiously Compromise Health and EVERY Aspect of Personal, Family, Social, Academic, Exercise & Professional Quality of LIFE ! BUT… You, or your Loved one are Not Helpless ! It is Important to know, that via your Physician and a Single Blood Test, You can be Tested for BOTH Sides of the Allergy COIN: <<>> Both Immediate and Delayed FOOD Allergy <<>> Environmental InHalants i.e Pet, Mites, Dust, Grass, Tree, Weed, Insect etc. Further, once your Offending FOOD and InHalent Allergens are Identified via your Blood Test… They can be Treated / Neutralized … Putting an END to the Allergy March which has ruined so many Peoples Lives. Take a moment to READ what WORLD Health Experts say about ALLERGIES and How they can be Neutralized. WORLD ALLERGY DAY TODAY December 2007 -- World Allergy Day 2007, which is organized by World Allergy Organization in association with the Global Alliance Against Chronic Respiratory Diseases (GARD) program of WHO, and focuses on Chronic Allergic Respiratory Diseases. World Allergy Day 2007 has the following objectives: - Increase awareness of chronic allergic respiratory diseases - Increase awareness of the profile of important local allergens, their prevalence throughout the year, and how climate changes are impacting the natural history of allergens - Educate physicians, patients and the public about the role of persistent allergen exposure in initiating and sustaining chronic allergic respiratory diseases and their co-morbidities - Highlight the Importance of Identifying, Treating and Controlling these Diseases The objective of World Allergy Day is to educate healthcare professionals and patients about the link between rhinitis (more commonly known as 'hay fever') and Asthma and the 'allergic march.' It is well known that a person suffering from one allergy has an increased risk of developing more allergies and Asthma - an occurrence dubbed the "Allergic March". The allergic march describes the progression in clinical manifestations of an allergy, in this case the progression from Rhinoconjunctivitis into Asthma. ÜDue to the risk of the 'Allergic March', the ARIA guidelines recommend that ImmunoTherapy should be initiated early in the disease process to prevent the further development of severe disease (AIRA guidelines 2001). Currently there exist three ways of treating allergy: Avoidance, symptomatic medications and ImmunoTherapy. The strategy of allergy avoidance is difficult for an airborne allergen such as grass pollen, and while symptomatic medications (e.g. antihistamines and local steroids) may offer a short-term symptomatic relief, they do not treat the underlying cause of the disease and hence are not an optimal long-term solution. ÜOnly ImmunoTherapy targets the underlying Allergic Disease, having the potential to produce long-term remission. Several controlled clinical studies have also demonstrated the added benefits of ImmunoTherapy in treating Asthma symptoms in patients suffering from allergic Asthma, and in preventing the development of new Allergies and Asthma(i).

A: Make the connection. No doctor will tell you this because it is so simple and yet so "not medical" but nonetheless it is VERY important. Also, patients as a whole like to walk out of a doctors office with a prescription for some magical medicine and many of these meds either do not work or cause other problems. Chemicals are often the root of all evil when it comes to your health. If you use any of the below mentioned items it is common to have sinus, asthma and allergy problems amongst other health issues. Get rid of them and your lungs will thank you and you will breathe easier. No Bounce or any other dryer sheets No Febreeze No Glade Plug-ins No scented candles No Perfumes No Fragranced Products on Body, Hair or Clothing No Smoke No Dander No Sprays

Q: Ain't Universal Healthcare Great???
NHS patients told to treat themselves Millions of people with arthritis, asthma and even heart failure will be urged to treat themselves as part of a Government plan to save billions of pounds from the NHS budget. Instead of going to hospital or consulting a doctor, patients will be encouraged to carry out "self care" as the Department of Health (DoH) tries to meet Treasury targets to curb spending. The guidelines could mean people with chronic conditions: • Monitoring their own heart activity, blood pressure and lung capacity using equipment installed in the home • Reporting medical information to doctors remotely by telephone or computer • Administering their own drugs and other treatment to "manage pain" and assessing the significance of changes in their condition • Using relaxation techniques to relieve stress and avoid "panic" visits to emergency wards. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2008/01/02/nhs102.xml

A: No. NHS patients are being encouraged to be more involved in the care they need. I live in the UK and work in the NHS (our universal health care system). It has problems, but not as many as the US healthcare system has. Despite spending much more per head of population than other developed countries, the US has worse health outcomes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care#Economics Life expectancy and infant mortality figures in the US are worse than in other developed countries, despite more money being spent (and wasted) in the USA. In the UK there are waiting lists for routine problems. Problems that can not wait are treated as emergencies. Also, in the UK, people can also have private health care. If you have suspected cancer for example, you are see within two weeks, or if appropriate, the same day. I can understand Americans being proud of living in the richest and most powerful country in the world. What I can not understand is why Amercians settle for a more expensive healthcare system where babies die that would have a better chance of life if born in another developed country. Beware loosing your job in the USA if you get healthcare through that. http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,,2167865,00.html Or retiring if you have become ill when covered by work based insurance. Not a problem in the UK.

Q: Why do I wheeze, get tired easily and have a hard time breathing during physical activities?
I'm a figure skater, and maybe after a few jumps and spins, I start wheezing and my chest feels so tight that I have a really hard time breathing. I don't know why this is happening. I was never like this before, and I'm pretty confident that I don't have asthma, since I have 4 cats and I would have known if I did. Does it have something to do with my diet? I'll admit it, I haven't exactly followed my balanced meal guidelines this month. Or does it have something to do with me getting dengue 9 months ago? It's really affecting my performance in the rink. And I also notice that in PE at school, I also undergo the same things. Why is this? Please answer sensibly. I would like to get some answers here first, before consulting my doctor, as it is quite a hefty sum to get a checkup. Thank you in advance. I don't take vitamins. What are the multivitamins you can recommend? I'm 13, tortoise. I don't smoke, stupid. I don't and never will. Hey, watch your fat-lipped mouth, toad. I am a FIGURE SKATER. We ain't fat, got that?? And, PLEASE, I am 13! I haven't even kissed someone yet!!

A: My answer will be quite lengthy but, informative and useful. Exercise is a common trigger of asthma attacks. People with Exercise Induced Asthma are believed to be more common than usually sensitive to changes in the air temperature and humidity to changes of the air. * When you are at rest, you breathe through your nose (and sometimes when we are asleep). Breathing through the nose serves to warm and humidify the air you breathe in to make it more like the air in the lungs. * When you are exercising, your breathe through the mouth and the air that hits or enters your lungs, is colder and drier. The contrast between the warm air in the lungs and the cold inhaled air, can trigger an attack. I'm almost finished. * Once the attack is triggered, the airways begin to swell, this is known as a broncospasm. Plus, larger amount of mucus are secreted. * The swelling and extra mucus partially blocks or obstructs the airways. This makes it more difficult to push air out of your lungs or, to exhale. * Keep an asthma diary ( symptoms, length of the attack, weather conditions, etc.) * There are several medications (pills) and inhalers that are quite helpful in controlling your attacks. I realize that money is an issue with being evaluated by your Doc but, you need to be evaluated and have something prescribed for you. You can arrange a payment plan so that you don't have to pay the full amount of the cost of the visit. Call the office ahead of time to find out if they are willing to do this for you. If not, go to the Emergency Room. They will schedule a payment plan. **Whew ! Here's a great website that is very informative and easy to understand: http://www.webmd.com/asthma/exercise-induced-asthma I hope that this is helpful and Good Luck with the financial problem.

Q: Strata problem: Building Construction/Noise is brutal! What are my rights? (Burnaby, BC)?
We purchased our Condo 3 years ago, in Burnaby BC. Normally it is extremely quiet as the building is made of concrete, however, in May they began construction on the building. Currently they are working in the suite above up us. I get off work around midnight and don't usually get to sleep until at least 2 am. At 7am every morning they begin dragging around furniture and drilling through the concrete above my head. It is the worst sound I have ever heard, it's so loud is shakes our windows. There is concrete dust everywhere, they asked us to remove our patio furniture but it is not possible - there is no where to put it, Our patio furniture is now all stained with dust. We have had to keep our windows closed during the day all summer, because the dust was aggravating my asthma - but the building is not air conditioned. Also even though we own, our strata has demanded our key which they give out to the contractors without coming to supervise them in our suite. I know this because Ive been home when the contractors come busting in. Our insurance won't cover us because we have technically given them a key, in the event something goes missing. I thought we would have more rights by owning instead of renting? Are there not municipal guidelines for noise violations? Are they violating them, what about tenant disturbance laws, do these only cover renting tenants? I'm so angry and frustrated I just want to sell and move! There was no note of construction when we bought the place, it is an older building. We have recently changed management companies, the strata council sent out a memo in February that construction would commence in May. They are currently installing some sort of sliding bar in the concrete above my suite to make exterior maintenance easier. We live on the 25th floor.

A: check to see if there were building permits issued for this construction? photograph your damaged furniture and submit a claim to the city, call the health department and have your place inspected for the dust problem, all this is done with a simple call and a loud voice.

Q: After reading this warning label, would you drink this?
This is a drink I've gotten addicted to. It has 250 mg of caffeine in it, making up 2 servings. But this is one of the longest warning labels I've ever read.

A: yep, read the label and still drinking it. I've also drunk the Black Pearl version. +++++ the product also has a slight amount of Yohimbe Bark which can increase heart rate.

Q: Well - it seems they WON'T accept my gay brother's bone marrow.?
This is just WRONG! This is from marrow.org. Just because he's gay, they won't accept his bone marrow even if he is a match to save my other brother who has leukemia because he's "at risk for AIDS". Health Guidelines Please Review the Following List of Common Health Deferrals: • HIV positive • At risk for AIDS • Organ or tissue transplant • Most forms of severe heart disease • Most forms of cancer, except for skin and cervical cancer in situ • Asthma requiring daily medication • Diabetes requiring insulin • Hepatitis • Obesity • Epilepsy • Chronic or severe back problems or back surgery • Autoimmune disorders (such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis or multiple sclerosis) If you have changes that affect your general health or personal commitment to the Registry, or if your phone number or address changes, please call your donor center or return this postage-paid card.

A: And I have rheumatoid arthritis and lupus but when I asked my Doctor about donating bone marrow he seemed to have no problem with it. I just got off the phone with him. I suggest you speak with the oncologist in charge of your brother's case. Provided you have a clean HIV screen and meet other criteria perhaps you'll be alright. Good luck, Dearest. Our best to your Family.
