Question : anything about inpatient treatment in hsptl for eating disorder?
I’m pretty sure I will soon be emitted to the hospital for inpatient treatment for anorexia, before I can actually get into a treatment center out of town somewhere. I’m really scared to go, I don’t know anything about it and I picture it like it Jail…
Will I be held there against my will? and for how long? do they FORCE me to eat? do I have to lay in bed all day long and all night, I heard that I might be watched on video survaliance?? If you have ever been in an inpatient treatment CENTER, and, OR amited to the hsptl for longer then the day, (for an eating dosorder) please tell me everything you know about it!
thank you so much -Jenn-

Answer by no name please
im currently struggling with anorexia. and this is what my therapist told me what it would be like:force feed you and if you throw up they will just feed you again;if needed watched 24/7;not even allowed to go to the bathroom alone because you might start exercising. it just depends on what hospital or inpatient program you go through, but whatever one you go to yes they will force you to eat. good luck! hope this helps! 
Is there anything wrong with my blood glucose monitor?

Question : Is there anything wrong with my blood glucose monitor?
I took my blood glucose three times in the span of five minutes and got the following readings: 78, 83, 78. These were taken out of three different fingers but with blood samples that were all comparably robuts. Is it normal for monitors to show this kind of vacillation, or is there something wrong with mine? (It’s a ReliOn ULTIMA, by the way.)
The word “robuts” above should be “robust”

Anything to correct astigmatism besides refractive surgery?

Question : Anything to correct astigmatism besides refractive surgery?
I started wearing glasses at age 5 due to near-sightedness in both eyes. By around age 13 my eyes were perfect and I ceased wearing glasses. Over the next five years my right eye became very slightly near-sighted again and my left eye became very far-sighted – it now has astigmatism. I’m wearing glasses again almost every day (when before it was all day every day) because about a year of using contact lenses bothered me. I don’t understand why my left eye deteoriated, but even with my new glasses on I have blurry vision sometimes. Will it get better, or is eye surgery the only option in the future?
(Currently 20 years old.)

Answer by kate
I have astigmatism too – and I have special contacts for it. They work wonders – talk to your eye doctor.
Anything wrong with liquid form glucosamine for my dog?
2Question : Anything wrong with liquid form glucosamine for my dog?
Any problems with the way its digested, anything like that? o and what is “optimsm”
liquid glucosamine
Best answer:
Answer by i_love_my_teddy_dog
The liquid form should be fine as long as it is formulated for dogs and from your vet. For the second question- “optimsm” is the trade name. MSM is methylsulfonylmethane, a naturally occurring source of sulfur and an ingredient often featured in joint supplement products.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) contains sulfur in a form the body can readily use. Sulfur is necessary for the production of collagen, glucosamine, chondroitin and certain anti-oxidants – all of which are vital to healthy cartilage and overall joint health.

body contouring
Best answer:
Answer by Prasad, MD
Healing after liposuction does take time. It is often difficult to tell if irregularities are due to residual fat or normal swelling. Without actually seeing you, it is hard to make specific recommendations. You should try to resolve any issues with your surgeon first, since no one knows what was done, better than your doctor. Should revision be necessary, procedures can be done as early as six months after surgery. This is depending however on how much swelling is still present at that point in time.

Question : Is there anything I can do about the swelling in my toe due to psoriatic arthritis?
I have psoriatic arthritis, which I take Enbrel for. It really helps, but I still have swelling in my big toe. Would like to find out it there is anyway I can relieve this.

As the inflammation in the joint diminishes so should the swelling. Sometimes toe splints help because the toe is immobilized…They can be purchased at the drug store..
Good luck..

Question : Will General Electric subsidaries NBC, CNBC, and MSNBC ever report anything negative about Obama?
General Electric Corporation owns a wide variety of businesses. The company produces — take a deep breath — aircraft engines, locomotives and other transportation equipment, kitchen and laundry appliances, lighting, electric distribution and control equipment, generators and turbines, and medical imaging equipment. GE is also one of the preeminent financial services companies in the US. General Electric Capital, comprising commercial finance, consumer finance, aircraft leasing, real estate, and energy financial services, is its largest segment. Other operations include the NBC television network.
One of General Electric’s largest divisions, GE Energy serves utility, industrial, and governmental customers worldwide, supplying products such as compressors, wind turbines, generators, and nuclear reactors. It also provides equipment that supports oil and gas distribution, and services ranging from consulting and field engineering to environmental monitoring and product lifecycle management.
The General Electric CEO is openly a Obama supporter and he wants cap and trade to pass. Why? Not because it is good for the environment, but it is good for General Electric’s bottom line.
So will these networks ever report anything controversial about Obama?

does anyone know anything about perlane?

Question : does anyone know anything about perlane?
an injectable filler much like restylane or juvederm. What makes it different? Are there any permanent solutions to smile lines not caused by age but have always been there?
perlane
Best answer:
Answer by : )
Yes, I used to have it in my lips. It’s a thicker version of restylane used for deeper wrinkles, filling hollows, augmenting lips, cheeks, etc.
You should consult with a dermatologist experienced in injecting fillers to see which is the best option for you.
I wouldn’t not go with a permanent filler. To many risks. The only other option would be a longer lasting temporary filler such as Restylane SubQ, Radiesse or Sculptra.
There is also the option of fat grafting, where they harvest fat from one part of your body and then transfer it to the areas you want treated. The procedure is slightly unpredictable as the retention rate varies from person to person. It may be worth a shot though.
Hope this helps.

Question : can’t this girl be arrested or anything?
my older sister is in texas for eating disorder treatment. no i don’t live there. and some how this girl she met there who i think is 16 is getting drugs from a dealer. and she gets online and basically brags about how she’s been fooling everyone in the hospital to believe shes related to us. and she takes these drugs to my sister. which are like handfuls of pills. and my sister being so sick she takes them. and now she’s been in a coma since the last time. this girl is 16 for one thing. she actually tells us she does this and sounds proud of it. can’t my sister’s doctor press charges on her? at least report a minor having drugs?
