I noticed very little on my legs - and still do to this day. How about y'all ?
Answer:
I had Hodgkin's lymphoma, stage 4 and I lost all of my hair, even my eyelashes and eyebrows. My eyelashes and eyebrows grew in within a few months once done with chemo but it took forever for my hair to grow. It took me a good 2 years once I completed chemo to even feel comfortable without a wig and my hair is finally the length it was before (3.5 years later, below my shoulders). It was wavy and thick before and grew back very curly. It all depends what kind of chemo you had, how long you went through it and how much you got (chemo). It should be starting to grow in though for you, if not I would ask your doctor, good luck and God bless you!
I would think that is a good thing as most weman shave thier legs anyway. My wife don`t but she is Indian
You are so *lucky*!! I've been through chemo twice and the only hair I've really lost is on my head and eyelashes!! LOL!! The hair on my legs has remained the same so I still have to shave. Big bummer!! Jen
My mom had ovarian cancer for 7 years and although her hair grew back on her head she grew very little hair back everywhere else!
When I had radiation when i was 15, I lost part of the heir on my head, and ALL of the hair on my back. My back is smooth to this day.I start chemo for breast cancer on Tuesday so I'll be curious as to how my leg and underarm and, a-hm, rest of my hair comes back.If you have little hair on your legs, I'd consider that a bonus!

Wolf Fever?? Has anyone heard of an old Fever called Wolf Fever?
Need this question answered as it is serious. Its some kind of blood fever as it was explained to me...
Answer:
http://www.homeoint.org/cazalet/oldnames...here is a link that I find most helpful when reading mid-wives diaries, talking to old timers, etc.
I have heard of Womb fever (infection of the uterus). But wolf?
Hope this helps!
Nothing shows up in google, except a reference to some musical band and as a reference to people who raise wolf dog hybrids where wolf fever refers to being addicted to raising this type of animal. Not any references to a disease.

Withdrawal from Paxil?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to minimize or ease the discomfort associated with withdrawal symptoms from Paxil such as headaches, light-headedness, and a sort of jolting electric zap behind the eyes when moving the head around. Just as a note, my withdrawal is gradual and physician-supervised, though I have not gotten back to her regarding this issue. Thanks!
Answer:
I tapered off of it and didn't notice any adverse effects. Hope you don't either.
Paxil causes cancer!
Stay in the same class of meds, use a lower dose to ease to pain. That Paxil is strong mojo if you know what I mean. Take it slow.
I went through the same thing when I stopped taking paxil. That was several years ago. Back then the drs were convinced that paxil had no withdrawal issues. I tried talking to my dr., therapist, and pharmacist and all said I was imagining it. UGH!! Your best bet is to look for all the information you can find about paxil withdrawl. It really helped me. I knew what was causing the symptoms and which symptoms were coming next. It didn't erase the brain zaps, the headaches, or the wild mood swings but it put me in a better position to handle them. You might look for a message board or forum about paxil. It really helps to talk to others that have been through it. It should pass in a month or two.
i dunno. ive been off paxil for two weeks. the withdrawal is so bad and i can't take any time off work and its horrible. they never mentioned this in the phamphlets. not the severity of the withdrawal. i refuse to go back on this med so i guess stick it out. i'll stick it out with ya. lemme know how you do.

Answer:
This is really a question you must put to your ENT specialist. You must follow his/her advice, not what you want to hear from responders at ByeDr.com.Surfing is great fun, but is it worth permanent hearing loss?

Witch trial?
I do not know what is the medical condition of the two girls who showed peculiar behavior, which initiates witch trial.
Is it hysteria? or some other neurological disease?
Answer:
"In the village of Salem in 1692, Betty Parris, age 9, and her cousin Abigail Williams, age 11, the daughter and niece (respectively) of Reverend Samuel Parris, fell victim to what was recorded as fits "beyond the power of Epileptic Fits or natural disease to effect," according to John Hale, minister in Beverly, in his book A Modest Enquiry into the Nature of Witchcraft (Boston, 1702). The girls screamed, threw things about the room, uttered strange sounds, crawled under furniture, and contorted themselves into peculiar positions. They complained of being pricked with pins or cut with knives, and when Reverend Samuel Parris would preach, the girls would cover their ears, as if dreading to hear the sermons. A doctor, historically assumed to be William Griggs, could find no physical evidence of any ailment."Current theory ascribes their behavior to likely hysteria. Considering the Puritans' convictions that women were subservient to men and children were the lowest on the social totem-pole, and given that the men of this society spent long hours preaching hellfire and brimstone to the women (who were thought to be naturally lustful and particularly subject to the devil's influence, I think hysteria might be a logical conclusion. I know I'd hate being yelled at and called a sinner for hours and hours at a time, 7 days a week. Read the link below for the entire story.
the afflictions that caused the mass hysteria in salem were related to mold that grew on the rye that was kept in the damp and dark pantries.

Wishing for anorexia back, how to stop?
Answer:
Don't quite understand your question. If I can make a guess as to what you mean, you are hoping to be skinny again? Don't. Anorexia can result in harmful complications and in some cases, death. You should speak to someone professional if you think you are obsessing about body image and your weight again. Here is a self help site about anorexia

rephrase ur question pls
Will you test positive on urinalisis for second hand pot smoke?
i was told you can't test positive on a urinalisis from second hand marajana smoke.is this true.i have friends that have cancer/aids/cronic pain,and are prescibed marajana.i'm around them ALOT,and don't want to test positive,but don't want to stop seeing them.
Answer:
if you inhale pot smoke...no matter what method you inhale it from, it can be significant enough to show up on urine screen. You absolutely CAN get it in your system from 2nd hand smoke.
It depends how second hand it was...was it passed from their hand to yours? If so then yes
i don't know for sure but you could always ask a medical professional or go to a medical website and post the question, you'll probably get a better answer there and you can always post it anonymously.but i doubt it
In order to test positive by secondhand smoke, you'd need to be in a sealed room with them for days. You'd almost need to inhale as much smoke as they do.The Army did a study where they locked volunteers in a room and pumped in smoke for one hour, five times a day. They started testing positive after the second day.Nonsmokers are safe in a ventilated area.
SHUT -UP...YOU DON'T HAVE FRIENDS WITH DISEASES YOU EFFIN POTHEAD. YES YOU WILL TEST POSITIVE -YOU BETTER START DRINKING WATER NOW SMOKEY.
