Is there any way to treat lipodystrophy in diabetics?

---

I rotate spots often, but I have to take 4 shots a day. I usually only get these bumps on my arms where I am taking a high dose of insulin.
i don't know many ways to treat it. avoid the place in which lipodistrophy has developed,.
For the rapid acting insulin try the abdominal area (the absorbtion is better, faster, more predictable, and you have more place to rotate), for the intermediate or long acting the best place is the tigh.
A massage of the areas affected can be useful.
When you inject a high dose, the chance of developing lypodistrophy is higher. For doses higher than 30 units I would recommend splitting the dose in 2 and injecting it separately.  (+ info)

I was just put in a boot today for a partial achilles tear and a few other calf muscle issues. The incident happened about 5 days ago. Does anyone have any estimates as to when I'll at least be able to stop using crutches and put pressure on the foot to walk in the boot?

How to care for my toe after partial removal?

---

I just got a partial ingrown toenail removal (doctor cut off the left third of my toenail.)I have read that it is very possible to get ANOTHER ingrown toenail during the healing process, because the nail has to re-grow from scratch. What measures should I go to to prevent this from happening? I would really like to not get another, the removal process is quite painful.
I had this happen to me and one of the things that the doctor should have recommended was to wear proper size shoes, your shoes might be too tight which in turn caused the ingrown toenail. so check out your shoes in addition to keeping it clean and plenty of access to the open air.  (+ info)

What determines whether or not you need a full or partial head of hair extensions?

---

A partial head is $450 and a full head of extensions is $900. Obviously, I'd like to get away with just purchasing a partial head.

But what determines which one you get? Thickness of my natural hair, length I already have? Thanks in advance.
Hello

The look that you want is going to determine what type of hair extension, full or partial, you are looking for.

If you want a long, full sexy hair like Mariah, and you have short hair, you will need a full extension.

If you have long hair already, but want it more full like Hanna Montana, then you will need a partial hair extension, to add body or volume.

The look that you want to obtain, is going to be the top factor in what type of hair extension you need.

Good Luck  (+ info)

What support groups and genetic counselors are there for the genetic disorder: familial hypercholesterolemia?

---

We are a group of high school students who need to contact a genetic counselor or support group about familial hypercholesterolemia for a biology project. Are there any genetic counselors or groups that you know of?
Couldn't find any support groups, but I found the NSGC (National Society of Genetic Counselors) website www.nsgc.org. The menu on the left allows you to search for genetic counselors by specialty or by geography. Hope that helps. Sorry I couldn't find a support group!  (+ info)

I'm african american, and this is the deal: Okay, the right side of my hair is significantly shorter than my left. I'm growing it out of a mohawk cut. I want to get partial fusion to even it out.

What are the pros and cons of having a partial hysterectomy meaning leaving your ovaries?

---

I have severe headaches caused from that time and a partial will not help get rid of those the only benefit I am seeing is that I will not have the severe cramping. My Dr. said at my age he doesn't want to take out my ovaries.
my mom had a partial, she was told that she had a chance to have either all boys or all girls, well, she had a girl, boy, girl after the first boy and than the partial.

I had a full hysterectomy and I gained weight, always dieting now, but can't seem to get rid of the belly fat.  (+ info)

Ny husband was looking into full denture implants, but we heard that partial plates were cheaper? Does anyone have ar know anything about these and about the average cost?
Partial plates of course require teeth to attach to... I think our office charges $1200 each for a metal-framework partial denture (generally the best kind IMHO).  (+ info)
