The “new aspirin” could be Vitamin D. Just as we discovered that aspirin can guard against heart disease, Vitamin D could become a useful weapon in the fight against MS, osteoporosis, mild depression and one of the most devastating diseases of our time – cancer.

Did you hear that there's a new strain which is resistant to the anti-flu drugs? Tamiflu etc? Found a really good website for tracking it's progress, seems to be updated every hour or so... http://www.swinefludeaths.co.uk. Interesting stuff.

Until now she feels same symptoms can this be H1N1? We have few cases in the island and it's bothering me since yesterday. But right now I don't get any flu symptoms at all.

I feel that now I am being punished to suffer sleepless nights and a whole lot of pain because of some idiots that don't take the meds properly. Recently I tried to get a refill on my sleep aid and my pain meds. I was turned down so fast I thought I had done something wrong. The 30 day supply of sleep aid, to which I got in February, I requested a refill 5 months later. The pain pills I got back in December. It's not my fault because MJ didn't take his meds right. But, should I have to suffer the consequences? You know, there are some of us out here that have pain and only use these meds as needed.

Tue, 07 Jul 2009 14:27:29 +0000 http://healthandsurvival.com/?p=916#comment-4041 no need for all the rude postings people. I work in a hospital and this IS a serious illness. People need to consult a doctor, if they say that you do not have it, then great, at least you know. It is always a good idea to get your symptoms looked at by a doctor. I really think it is important if you may be around children or older seniors. Although it may not kill you it may kill a high risk person such as the child or senior. I think that we all need to respond to others postings with genuine concern. There is a website that the government has set up will all the data collected on the disease thus far. I would encourage people to go there and get the facts. Unless you are directly related to the study or a physican then I am not sure why anyone would feel they have the expertise to correctly give medical advice to any of the postings except their personal experience. I do have three of the symptoms but I am going today to get the test done, that will answer all the questions. no need for all the rude postings people.

Now this process will not happen in a week or a few days. You have to drink green tea regularly to lose weight. The thermogenic properties in green tea help in gearing up the metabolism and the consequent weight loss.

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 16:22:05 +0000 http://healthandsurvival.com/?p=916#comment-4034 What a laugh. Seriously - if you think you are ill go to the doctor. Posting up here with "OMG am I going to die" or "I think I have all these sysmptoms, should I go". Seriously? No, really - think about it. It's flu, chances are it'll go away on it's own - the people who need real assistance are the young (and the dude who mentioned his kid was really ill - my god! Surely that's a prank posting - or someone should track down your IP and report you to CS!) and the old. So if you are on this message board posting nonesense; chances are you'll be ok. But it's common sense people - I can't believe that we live in such a nanny-state that you have to ask complete strangers if going to the doctor is the right thing to do when you feel ill! They say we are at the most advanced state of our civilisation. Really? What a laugh. Seriously – if you think you are ill go to the doctor.
