Question by Saint: how do i deal with all this stress its so over bearing, at times i feel like its pointless to keep trying?
ok so a little over one year ago i had severe pains in my stomach and chest. i lost my breathe easily. i finally went to the hospital, and they found cancer cover the lining inside my lungs. so i ask them about treatment plans and since i had gone in there before and never paid my bill, completely my fault to, that they could not treat me unless they had some kind of payment. so i have lived with sever pains in my chest for a while now every now and again i wake up choking on my own blood and puke. than i met this girl of my dreams she is my everything or so i thought. she just recently dumped me she said she loved me with all her heart but she was lonely cause i moved to another but i stayed devoted to her i would stay up with her when she had bad dreams and talk to her till she fell asleep an di even stayed on the phone once and just listened to her breathe it was comforting to know she was alright. but yeah she left me cause she was lonely needed me physically there and said she gets in the mood to “play” so to speak, she said if was there we could be together. but since i am not she needs to play but she love Me an di have her love she says, this was yesterday, but on week ago from yesterday my one friend of my whole life killed himself, didn’t even leave a note just filled the tub slit his wrists and swallowed thirty five sleeping pills. never even said goodbye, then i find out today my ex girlfriend who i had my first planned kid with is going to marry my brother and he told me that he would dbe my little girls father from now on and i don’t need to bother to check in? this all hit me real hard i wanted to ball like a baby but i couldn’t i just gave myself a panic attack and i sit here day to day wondering what i did wrong to do all of this you know i cant do this alone last christmas i told my mom she was unhappy cause she cant keep a boyfriend and she said on christmas day i wish i could make you disappear so i have no where to turn all my old friends keep doing drugs and i cant make new ones for some reason, i am not suicidal, but this pressure and loneliness is so overbearing i don’t what to do, an di just feel so abandoned, i don’t know why i even asked this question on the internet i thought maybe if i got some advice from i do not know from someone who doesn’t know me maybe i might find an answer as to why all this is happening so sudden or maybe help me understand it i feel lost alone confused and hurt? does anybody have any advice for me?

Wow Wow Wow, Honey, you need mental help. Don’t worry- I’m not saying that you’re a loony toon, I’m saying you need to talk this out with people that can give you the real facts, and real advice on what to do. Whatever you do- DON’T do suicide. I know for a fact that you can make your life better, try to borrow money so you can get treatments for your cancer. Your ex-girlfriend, that left you because she was lonely would help! Then, once you were better, you could be physically there for her. She’d understand. Give my advice a try, then once you’ve tried it… I’d suggest.. Phyciatrist, or Therapist to talk to. Good luck.

Q&A: Possible cures for cancer, Ways to keep it from metastasizing?
Question by : Possible cures for cancer, Ways to keep it from metastasizing?
Okay, it might not seem so real now but we HAVE to start thinking outside of the box if we want to get anywhere with cancer. Okay, curing cancer, well lets start with saying a tumor is found. No signs it has metastasized anywhere else. We give it a destructive virus and it destroys all the cancer cells. Seems impossible right? Wrong. Take Tamiflu it doesn’t cure the flu but keeps it from spreading until the flu has run it’s course and leaves the body. If we did the same with this, we could cure cancer in the future. It kills off the cells, and the rest of your body would (hopefully) be spared because of the medicine. Once the virus has run it’s course, the tumor will probably have been essentially dead. In the same way as keeping the virus from spreading, what if we could keep cancer from Metastasizing to other parts of the body? Don’t bring stupid answers like ” look what happened on I Am Legend ” it’s a movie. If we didn’t think outside the box, how could we have got Penicillin? It comes from Mold, who would have thought Mold could serve such a purpose?
you misread my statement. The tumor gets a virus (quite nasty virus, one that rips and destroys the cells completely) Next time read it thoroughly.
Best answer:
Answer by Quietscherin
It’s an interesting thought but Tumors can’t “run their course”. Yes the body tries to fight tumors but it can’t succeed, especially with malignant ones. Chemo and radiation therapy do basically what it is you’re talking about. They attack fast growing cells, which means the tumor, unfortunately it also attacks healthy fast growing cells. A tumor can’t just die like a virus, it’s made of living tissue with a blood supply and with a blood supply means metastazing, something you’re talking about wouldn’t work. The best bet for treating cancer is to improve on what we already know helps, like chemo and radiation. There are already really high tech meds that are very promising (look up “targeted therapy”) and researchers are already looking up other options like defining each tumors susceptibility towards specific chemo therapies.
To the new statement: How is this more realistic? How would you keep the virus from spreading? A tumor is just out of control tissue, it’s connected to healthy tissue, to a blood and lymph supply. This is why chemo also makes people loose hair and become sick, it spreads throughout the body. You can’t inject something into the tumor without the rest of the body receiving it as well. Researchers are considering viruses but they have to solve the exact problem I’ve stated first

Do cough and cold products keep you sicker longer?
Question by soloyo: Do cough and cold products keep you sicker longer?
If fever is one of the body’s defense mechanisms reducing the rate and viability of bacterial replication does taking a product to reduce fever increase the duration of my infection? If I have a cough would taking a cough suppressant keep the infection in my lungs longer? If mucus is a defense mechanism would taking an expectorant increase the length of illness? I realize that the products are marketed to reduce symptoms, but if these symptoms are the body’s defenses wouldn’t treating them be counterproductive? Have any clinical trials or other publications addressed this issue? Any primary references on the topic would be greatly appreciated.
Best answer:
Answer by Drew Lancz
I was unable to find studies investigating cough suppressants or expectorants, but expectorants like guaifenesin have never been proven better than a glass of water at reducing mucus. Studies have been done investigating tylenol, ibprofen, and aspirin and their effects on the duration of colds.
In the article cited below all 3 drugs reduced the response of the immune system, made the colds stick around longer and reduced the number of antibodies produced making users of these drugs more likely to catch the virus again in the future.
I only saw the one study, I am sure other people here will be able to provide more info!

Sean Swarner: Keep Climbing
www.cyacyl.com Sean Swarner has broken through defined human limitation in order to redefine the way the world views success. Sean is a medical marvel and is the only person in the world ever to have been diagnosed with both Hodgkin’s disease and Askin’s sarcoma. He was diagnosed in the fourth and final stage of Hodgkin’s disease at the age of 13. Doctors expected him to live for no more than three months. He overcame his illness only to be stricken a second time when a golf ball-sized tumor attacked his right lung. After removal of the Askin’s tumor, Sean was expected to live for less than two weeks. He astounded the medical community when he survived both these brutal diseases and a medical-induced coma. A decade later and with only partial use of his lungs, Sean became famous for being the first cancer survivor to climb Mount Everest. Sean realized that after defeating cancer twice, no challenge would ever be too great or any peak too high. Sean proved his theory when he crested the peak of the highest point in the world — Mount Everest. Sean decided to continue climbing and has since topped the highest peaks in Africa, Europe, South America, Australia, Antarctica, and North America. As Sean continues to defy the odds and test his own personal endurance, he continues his dedication toward his mission of sharing his message of healing, hope, and triumph with cancer patients worldwide. Sean also serves as a source of inspiration as the founder of his non-profit …

WHY DO I KEEP DREAMING ABOUT ZOMBIES!!?
Question by : WHY DO I KEEP DREAMING ABOUT ZOMBIES!!?
I’ve been watching that show “The Walking Dead” on AMC but it has been going on since before that…what does this mean?
Last night’s dream:
Me and my grandpa were out hunting in the country (which we do frequently, and I can remember some of the hunt, if that matters?), and we were on our way back and off in the distance (we were in my grandpa’s truck/jeep) we see this crowd of people walking down this hill, we are a little dazed but we just go “oh, they must be going to some town meeting or something”. on our way to my house (I live a block away from the park) we see more people walking down the hill but this time we can see blood on their faces. They look like normal people, note, not zombies, just walking like zombies and have blood on their faces. So, we get to my house and open the door, the power is still on and not everyone is a zombie. My grandpa takes my 10-year-old little brother, Josh, out to his car to go see if there is anyone left. I stay home with my parents, two dogs, and cousin (who also lives with us),,,,this is the first time in a dream that EVERYONE in my “immediate” family has been there. My brother gets home and I ask where my grandpa is and he says he joined a hunting party to go out and kill zombies and I get worried when he takes a long time to come back (I woke up before he got back). I am terrified and fall to the floor pounding on it and shouting “WAKE UP!! IT’S JUST A DREAM!!” and in my mind I know that it’s not a dream…even though it was…it felt so real even though it wasn’t and it scared the crap out of me!! Anyways, I went to sleep with my dog Meagan at my side and my other dog Gunnar on my bed…just like always…with my door shut…anyways this morning before I got out of bed to go too school I analyzed everything and its not one of those dreams where it makes sense in the dream but not in real life…it all made sense…
If it helps any my grandpa is currently undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer and will be going through radiation for bone cancer pretty quick here… My idea is that the hunting means I miss what we always used too do and I don’t want too lose my grandpa…but that is just my take on it… Any others ideas? Thanks,
Caleb

Where do you keep your dragon poetry?
Question by Just Billy: Where do you keep your dragon poetry?
So, I’m in the shed looking for the lucky drain plug from my old hotrod Pontiac, and back behind the Fang Face lunch box and under the sack of Swiss Army gravel, I found an un-burped Tupperware tub containing, a cracked Magic 8 ball, an asbestos tooth brush, assorted women’s underthings, and this, carved into a bar of Lifebouy:
Let’s head to the tire swing and unwind,
I certainly hope you won’t mind.
If a should perchance,
Smile as I glance,
At the view of your short Levi’s clad behind.
The river is up and it’s warm,
So maidens will come running and swarm.
Mean knights, don’t get excited
For you’re not invited.
Your eyes can’t handle the fair maidens’ form.
The oak is quite strong and so is the rope,
So if you are hoping what I often hope,
The swing is quite ready for me and for you
and can handle at once, a fair ‘nother two.
We’ll laugh and we’ll play and we’ll curse those who mope.

I am not a smoker, but sometimes I get the urge. How do I keep my self from having a cigarette?
Question by knowledgeable: I am not a smoker, but sometimes I get the urge. How do I keep my self from having a cigarette?
I am 18 and I do not like smoking. I believe it smells terrible. I have had many family members die of lung cancer, heart problems, etc… I have done research projects and anti-tobacco campaigns, so I know all of the negative effects. I have even held a real smoker’s lung while giving a presentation.
Occasionally, I get the desire to have a cigarette. I had my first cigarette about 6 months ago and have had a total of about 10 cigarettes. I have not smoked in over a month, and I got the urge tonight (but did not smoke).
I know I have addictive tendencies and if I start giving in to these urges, I’ll get hooked.
My question is what is an effective way to divert my attention when I get the desire to smoke?
Best answer:
Answer by Mindwalk8
Look at the price..
Visit a hospice and ask questions..
Like running? (you won’t)
Like vigorous other activities? (You probably won’t)
Mention to your mom or dad what your thinking..
But I think looking at the price is the best example of why not to..

Can I break my lease if my landlord doesn’t keep my apartment up to code. I am very concerned b/c I am 35wks
Question by akptrsn: Can I break my lease if my landlord doesn’t keep my apartment up to code. I am very concerned b/c I am 35wks
I have told the landlord about this, but he hasn’t taken any action to get it fixed. I have a very large whole in the ceiling above my toilet. Chunks of plaster are falling all over my bathroom. This is the second time I’ve had this particular problem. The first time ( last year) it took about four months for him to get someone to fix it. I told him back in April that the plaster has fallen again causing an even bigger hole (can see the apartment above mine). He gave me the number of some repair guy that I set an appt with 3 weekends in row and he never showed. I left messages informing the the landlord and he never returned my calls. Well recently on July 2nd the city did their annual housing inspection. The landlord still has not fixed my ceiling. On top of that in June I found some type of green mold or fungus in my closet. He still hasn’t had it inspected or tried to do anything about it. I am 35 weeks pregnant and I am worried about asbestos and toxic mold.

Do those who practice alternative medicine keep themselves aware of the advances of modern science?
Question by Joe: Do those who practice alternative medicine keep themselves aware of the advances of modern science?
The advances of science, particularly those in metabolism, genetics, and nanotechnology, promise unprecedented medical techniques that will revolutionize the practice of medicine in the coming years. Things like targeted drug delivery, RNA interference, patient specific therapy, gene therapy, stem cell therapy, cloning, etc, will do so much in the fight against disease. As an example, work on T-cell engineering, combined with advances in our understanding of cellular communication in the immune system, will soon allow physicians to expose immune cells to particular antigens and tell them to attack and kill any cell that has it, or not to. Imagine what such techniques could do for cancer, or organ transplantation. We could train immune cells to target specific cancer cell lines, and they will wipe them out with ease. We could transplant organs from any person into any person. This is a tiny fraction of the possibilities promised by the advances of immune based therapy, and there are so many more fields. I could go on for days about the future of modern medicine. The ability to deliver RNA molecules to specific cells is already becoming a reality. Imagine the ease with which diseases like Type I diabetes mellitus, or cystic fibrosis could be treated when we can simply stick RNA into the cell that will activate the necessary genes, or serve as a template for the missing proteins. Imagine how quickly disease like Huntington’s will be wiped out.
