I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrom and Im thinking about getting a tattoo?

---

Ive heard about people doing it? Will it look ok? Can it even be done? Is there anyone out there with EDS that has tattoos? Any first hand experience?
My boyfriend has EDS and from what I know I think it would be ok, depending on the type and symptoms you have, because it can vary quite a bit. I'd just ask your doctor first to make sure. That's probably the safest way to go. Since it expresses so widely, just because it was ok or bad for someone else doesn't mean the same will hold true for you.  (+ info)

What exactly is carple tunnel syndrom? Can you get it from pinching something in your elbow?

---

My pinky and ring finger are tingleing, I went to the doctor thinking it was a heart attack but they said it was something else. So while I wait to see my regular doctor I have time to think. I have noticed that when I press the side of my elbow it sends a tingleing sensation to my fingers. Does anyone know what it could be?
You have ulnar neuropathy.

The ulnar nerve runs over the elbow (and tends to get pinched there) and through the cubital tunnel, then through the carpal tunnel. It controls feeling on the little and ring finger and to that half of the palm of your hand, back to the wrist.

The test to determine if you really have ulnar neuropathy is called an EMG (electromyogram), where a shock is sent from the elbow to the hand to time the speed of the nerve response.

If the damage is moderate to severe, you'll need the nerve released and transpositioned - an invasive procedure that will take about 6 weeks to recover from.

Speak to your doctor about this.  (+ info)

Recommendations and treatments for IBS

1. Dietary fiber may lessen IBS symptoms in many cases. High-fiber diets may cause gas and bloating, but within a few weeks these symptoms often go away as the body adjusts to the diet: IBS can be treated in most cases simply by increasing the intake of dietary fiber and eliminating food allergies.

2.Large meals can cause cramping and diarrhea for those with IBS.
Symptoms may be eased if you eat smaller meals more often or just eat smaller portions.
This should help, especially if your meals are low in fat and high in carbohydrates such as pasta, rice, whole-grain breads and cereals, fruits, and vegetables.

3.People with spastic colon are often fiber-intolerant and have a tendency to like fats because they produce a feeling of wellbeing. They often respond well - sometimes even dramatically so - to a multiple digestive enzyme formula.

Try a full spectrum plant based Digestive Enzyme ( 3x/day) with your meals

4.Enteric-coated Peppermint oil has been used in treating the irritable bowel syndrome in Europe for many years. Get a supplement from a Natural store

5.Vitamins B12, A, D, E and K along with calcium and a lactose-free diet are often recommended by clinicians treating IBS.

Try a Sublingual B12 , a Cal/Mag , and a good quality multi vitamin - Make sure you get these supplements in a vegetable base - from a Health store

6.Avoid high-fat foods, such as bacon and vegetable oils, and gas-producing foods, such as beans and broccoli.

7.Be on the lookout for sorbitol, an artificial sweetener found in candy, gum, and other sugarless products, that may trigger diarrhea.


8.Quit smoking and limit your intake of caffeine, artificially sweetened beverages, and alcohol, which all may irritate the digestive tract. If those apply to you.  (+ info)

What do you do about Restless Leg Syndrom?

---

I have had it for years and just wondered if anyone that suffers from it has found a really good solution for RLS.
I mostly sleep with pillows under my legs. It doesn't always work, but generally the elevation under the knee makes my legs relax. You can also see your doctor. Recently a drug (REQUIP) has been developed to help with Restless Leg Syndrome. He'll evaluate your symptoms and decide if it's necessary to prescribe it.  (+ info)

what is the best way to relieve carprol syndrom with out getting medical drugs from a doctor?

---

i use my hands to do small and large task and them ake afterwards
Holding one hand in front of you palm up, fingers slighty bent, take your other hand and press about one inch behind your wrist with your thumb, putting a good deal of pressure on it. Wait twenty seconds and then very, very slowly start to open your fingers until you have full extension while maintaining the pressure. When fully extended hold for ten seconds before releasing the pressure. Do your other wrist. Lete me know how this works, it fairly new but have had some great results with it. There are also a bunch of hand pressure points one can release if this works for you. I just got done with a lady who couldn't do her job because of that pain. So far she isn't having any trouble. Key is to go very slowly when opening your hand.  (+ info)

Can someone explain to me in a simple way what aspergers syndrom is?

---

My mom told me I had it, and she didn't really explain too much. Can someone explain?
It's a type of mild autism. People who have it usually have interests in specific subjects, such as space, or cars. They usually have difficulty in social situations and are quite introverted. They can have difficulty seeing something from someone else's perspective and understanding other people's emotions. They can usually lose their temper quite easily (although I have asperger's I've never really had difficulty with that.) They can also show symptoms of OCD.  (+ info)
