Avatar m tn good call, there is also the fear factor which many men will not admit to. Frightened if they push their heart in any way, it will cause damage.
Avatar n tn This will probably sound strange but start doing cardio for an hour a day like an exercise bike it will increase futility :)
Avatar f tn Determining a dosage of tramadol for dogs is an exercise in futility. As with people, if the dog has a history of seizures it is important to let your vet know this, and they will likely tell you about alternatives. While the dosage amounts vary from dog to dog, the tramadol dosage for dogs can be put into effect by using the dog’s weight as the determinant. The usual range is .5 - 1.8mg per pound.
Avatar n tn on the tongue which are getting larger and now interfering with eating and swallowing. Talking to all of my doctors is an exercise in futility. They have no clue as to who or where to go to find a specialist that will surgically (or otherwise) remove or shrink them. So I don't need any more of "you should see your doctor" because they're all useless.
Avatar n tn You can exercise all you want but if insulin is not present in the recipe then the whole thing is an exercise in futility. The medical community advises physical activity such as walking, mowing the lawn, dancing, gardening, etc which is better than just sitting in front of the television and becoming fat. So walking around from table to table and in and out of the kitchen is not a physical activity? You say:" 30 mins.

Avatar m tn Thanks Doctor, i appreciate your answer but i forgot to tell you that all the tests were all negative but i'm stupidly still anxious.
Avatar n tn Personally I find the taper method to be an exercise in futility. I always take more just to "normalize". I am on day 9 off of a habit that was 3 times higher than yours. I followed the Thomas recipe and started exercising on day 4. The physical has subsided with the exception of RLS. Just think you give yourself a terrible flu to get a brand new life. The best quote I have seen said "I may have another high in me but I don't have another withdrawl".
Avatar m tn In such cases, removal of gall bladder will be an exercise in futility. If you search in this Forum it self, you will get many instances of such cases. So, my advice to you is to visit a well equipped hospital and get a detailed diagnosis done.
Avatar n tn For all patients treated with boceprevir, the following futility rules should be employed: *If HCV RNA is ≥ 100 IU/mL at Week 12, all 3 medications should be discontinued. *If the patient has confirmed, detectable HCV RNA at Week 24, all 3 medications should be discontinued. For all patients treated with telaprevir, the following futility rules should be employed: *If HCV RNA is > 1000 IU/mL at treatment Week 4 or 12, all 3 medications should be discontinued.
Avatar f tn OK, I think I'm getting it. You don't live with your MIL. You live with your mother. Your MIL wants money from your fiance and accepts gifts from her daughter. (I assume, your fiance's sister.) So far, is that right? You judge that she has plenty of money, and are annoyed that she is not buying anything for your baby. Also annoying to you is that she gets money from your fiance. And, there is this fight about Dreft.
1815939 tn?1377991799 Will Discontinuation of Dosing Patients with inadequate viral response are unlikely to achieve SVR, and may develop treatment-emergent resistance substitutions. Discontinuation of therapy is recommended in all patients with (1) HCV-RNA levels of greater than or equal to 1000 IU/mL at Treatment Week 4 or 12; or (2) confirmed detectable HCV-RNA levels at Treatment Week 24 (see Table 2).

Avatar f tn Hi gents!
Avatar m tn An unscheduled futility analysis was initiated because of a recent increase in the patients’ drop out rate related to viral escape. A futility analysis is conducted during an ongoing clinical trial to describe the probability of a study to reach its primary endpoint. The result of this analysis shows that a positive outcome of the study regarding its primary endpoint is unlikely. The Data Safety and Monitoring Board (DSMB) of study ABX203-002 was convened.
1432897 tn?1322959537 But we saw that it really worked in others, and we had come to believe in the hopelessness and futility of life as we had been living it. When, therefore, we were approached by those in whom the problem had been solved, there was nothing left for us but to pick up the simple kit of spiritual tools laid at our feet. We have found much of heaven and we have been rocketed into a fourth dimension of existence of which we had not even dreamed.
Avatar f tn My question also. If you can take them without running out early, and without obsessing over them, why stop? But if they are running your life, I understand the motivation. See my comments to the earlier post-- just tapering down on one's own is always an exercise in futility-- everyone just keeps on trying, but it doesn't accomplish anything. Long-term, happy recovery requires working a program.
Avatar m tn ll get my EOT blood work done on Monday, because I am still in Mexico (poor me). I guess 3 weeks of paradise is enough for now. I want to thank everyone here for all the help. I am going to get my blood done, check my pool and plumbing for damage from the hard freeze that we had in Phoenix, rare, but it happens, and then I'm coming back. We are starting construction on my new beach house and I want to be here for that...
Avatar m tn On a side note, it is irrational to contemplate scenarios in which another person has injected your food with blood. It would be an exercise in futility for someone to do so, given that HIV can't be transmitted by ingesting blood.
Avatar f tn Condoms did not break when we were ready to : "Finish", we did on each others stomachs and cleaned up
Avatar m tn Trying to convince the average x-ray tech to use additional shielding is an exercise in futility. Complaining will probably do no good. The entire profession is unconscious regarding radiation hazards.
Avatar m tn Diagnosing and medicating a hypo patient based on TSH is an exercise in futility. Doctors like to believe that TSH is the best measure of thyroid status;however, TSH cannot be shown to correlate well with either of the biologically active thyroid hormones, Free T3 or Free T4, much less correlate with symptoms, which are the most important consideration for a hypo patient.
Avatar m tn You will NOT get a different answer regardless of how many times or people you ask. It seems like an exercise in futility to make you accept the truth. - HIV can and should NEVER be diagnosed by the PRESENCE or ABSENCE of ANY SYMPTOMS. If you have persistent symptoms which concern you, please see your Dr. - If you feel a pressing nedd to be tested for HIV, you have that right at any time. -You've asked your questions and have been givin an assessment( repeatedly).
Avatar f tn This patient’s medication unfortunately must be stopped at Week 12, based on the futility rules outlined for boceprevir in the US Food and Drug Administration–approved label.[4] The futility rules dictate that all therapy should be discontinued in patients whose HCV RNA levels are ≥ 100 IU/mL at treatment Week 12, as well as in those who have detectable HCV RNA at treatment Week 24 (Table 1).
