There is some sense in not swimming after a good meal if the meal includes alcohol
 
Lol. Indeedy! Never feared that one. I'm not a drinker. Lol

I assume that a glass of water would do for the set of pills you take at any one time.
There is a potential complication where some pills shouldn't be taken together; and also some should be taken with food and others on an empty stomach.

I think 35 lots of 8 oz is about 8 litres which is probably more water than is healthy for most people.
(Not to mention the fact that you wouldn't have much chance to leave the bathroom)
Yes, you make a point! I do recall that two were taken morning an hour or two before the first meal.. then 4 taken at night, back then. The rest were taken with my breakfast.

Maybe he is nervous! Nerves can make one break out. Perhaps body heat is a factor. A lot of men sleep very warm so extra body heat, or sweat and friction might cause a heat rash that is like prickly heat, with a red bumpy rash.
Also, may not be soaps etc..it may be certain fibers in your clothing...perhaps something the fabrics are made from..rayon, angora, wool, cotton, polyester etc..

Well how does that work when you are on 38 medications and 35 are instructing a full 8 ounce glass of water? When I was in the deepest part of my last 15 years or so being sick I was on 38 meds a day....I just assumed a single glass for all would suffice... Was that wrong?

Physiology & Medicine / Re: Will preventing antibiotic sensitivity, help treat Chronic Lyme Disease as well?
« on: 30/06/2020 13:59:39 »
As of the beginning of 2015 when they finally diagnose my breast cancer, the doctors stopped my antibiotic treatment for my Lyme disease due to the chemotherapy. I'm still on chemo upkeep basically a for the rest of my life as I understand it because I was hormone positive. So I'm taking a low dose letrazole tablet to treat my breast cancer. But they're no longer treating my lime. As I understand it once I was done with the lettuce all I was supposed to come back to continue treatment for the lime. Haven't done that yet but I do say after the last few years I feel lots better but, I had been on the antibiotics for several years when we found the cancer. Since then I've been treated for both thyroid cancer and breast cancer and I'm currently cancer-free and I've also had a tavern procedure for my heart valve 2 years ago June.
Thank you for your link and for your reply.

Physiology & Medicine / Re: How is anti rabies medication produced
« on: 30/06/2020 13:48:23 »
I had no idea how the serum was produced   2 years ago Right before my tavr procedure I had to undergo a series of rabies shots because I was attacked by a dog that we couldn't catch and couldn't find. I had around 18 shots in total over period of time with 10 or 12 being on same day... I had no idea the shots were given according to body weight..I am a big woman...so definitely another downside to being overweight!

Thank you for the link. I have just finished reading the whole thing.. it has some very interesting information..I wish I understood more about these things. we can't believe a thing coming from Trump and he just tries to make us distrust each other and the CDC and news it's all part of his divide and conquer...stratedgy.. to get things his way...confuses me seriously........

I am of the mindset that I would rather not believe that people would do this or purposely do this.that its so crazy to think anyone would want to jeopardize the lives of millions upon millions of people because of political or any other reasons.. I try hard daily to believe we all have much more respect for humanity than that would imply otherwise... I hate that glimmer of doubt that made me even ask this question to begin with. So sad.. All the daily reports of loved ones and others loved ones all across the world suffering now with sickness and the death this virus has brought...I love humanity and feel my heart breaking more every day I see those numbers raise and people still thinking it's not real..its a hoax... :'(

I don't want to play the blame game.. I believe in my more intelligent part of my mind that this was a natural occurrence and so we just need to pull together and fix it... Which I believe is being worked on hourly by wonderful scientists and Doctors right now...All of us who are not able to do that part can still do plenty by listening to the CDC and The doctors and scientists...when they tell us how to help ourselves sheltering in, masks, hand washing cleaning etc....we all need to help...

Yes.. I have read multiple views and yesterday I read that it's been rolled out that it could have been a human created virus but instead they believe it may have been around kinda dormant in humans for Avery long time and that at some point long ago it was initially in a animal..like bat snake etc...but that at some point it was transferred into humans who may have already harbored a differentiate..and for whatever reason became actively a deadly virus now apparently..but my memory may have some of that mixed up..but have you all heard that yet?

I have now. Thanks Karen

Honestly right now have a strange feeling that the western leaders are refusing to impose mandatory face masks because of negative liberty and how it's maintained. Not sure what's more disgraceful the practice itself or the endangering of the public safety to  continue it.


Boy Jolly isn't that terrible! They need to do it and no arguments... The masks have to offer some sort of protection from community spread.....its sad that its not being more sternly enforced until we have this virus under control...I agree with you...

COVID-19 / Re: What underlying health issues are important?
« on: 01/04/2020 09:53:26 »
Looks like I'm in trouble....a lot of those apply to me... I don't have issues with heart disease in the sense of place build up in arteries etc.. But I do have the new bovine valve from the that procedure and aortic aneurysms, etc..nephretic kidnry disease,(spelling may be wrong) passive COPD, hypertension, late stage lyme which seems to be reined in as good as we can get it...can this effect my new valve, if I catch the virus? Obviously the other stuff makes me high risked.

I read an article yesterday that said it was like two of the different corona viruses that had actually been introduced into one host simultaneously that may have actually made it able to become human transmitted to humans something like that I'll look for the article. Not sure how reliable it was? Not in any way insinuating that they were introduced by a human, but somehow invaded the host whatever that actually was at the same time creating this new strain..at least that was my understanding of what I had read.
