Avatar n tn However, since the accidental discovery of an interaction between the calcium channel blocker, felodipine, with grapefruit juice,1 it has now become evident that grapefruit juice has the potential to alter the plasma concentrations of many medications when they are taken by mouth. In some cases, this may result in undesirable clinical effects of medications.
Avatar f tn And busy? I'm roughly 6+5 with my second and I'm in school full time as well. It's doable you just have to prioritize. Set a schedule and work hard to maintain it. You and your husband are a team you both have to agree on your individual responsibilities. Maintaining steady and calm communication is fundamental to your relationship and your sanity as mom.

Avatar n tn This person can come out to your home and set up home visits with nurses and nursing aids to help you thru daily activities that you need help with concerning your wife. They can also help set up very low cost meals to be delivered to your home. We had to have assistance when my grandma was very ill. The social workers have a list of people and services that they trust and work with regularly. It's easier to use their resources then trying to find them on your own.
Avatar n tn Mind you, this is not the only symptom of ADD that I exhibit, but it is the most debilitating one that directly is affecting my current job, previous nursing position, and what I was warned about repeatedly in nursing school.
Avatar m tn What is more challenging is she is not able to go and live just anywhere without being attached to so many life changing responsibilities. Anywhere my mother goes would require critical amenities that would cater to her disability, and the high traffic of people that would go along with her care and wellbeing. This is overwhelming for family and friends.
Avatar n tn In June '08 I was sitting watching TV when my left side from my head down to my leg became stiff and numb. Went to the ER and checked by 5 neuronogists, had scans, MRI & other tests. Their consensus was a brain event in the rt. thalemus. For 2 & 1/2 yrs I was living with a 5 out of 10 sensation but last Dec. '10 as I was having dinner, the sensation became worse like an 8 out of 10 and I'm having increased trouble moving my whole left side.

Avatar m tn Coadministration with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A protease inhibitors, boceprevir and telaprevir, may increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of calcium channel blockers, especially the dihydropyridines (e.g., amlodipine, felodipine, nicardipine, nifedipine, nisoldipine). The mechanism involves inhibition of intestinal and hepatic CYP450 3A4, the isoenzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic clearance of most calcium channel blockers.
Avatar f tn I am active, never sick but use eyedrops for Glaucoma, very slightly elevated blood pressure for which I take a mild 5 mg. Felodipine tab and vytorin for slightly elevated cholestrol. My chol. ratio with meds is 2.3. The last week I have had a great slowing of my pulse. For three days it didn't get over 42 and on one day if got down as low as 37 and then 38 and stayed there all day. My blood pressure has been about the same as it always is....

Avatar m tn I am a single mother of 2 boys 6 and 8 with 2 different dads, and divorced. Ive been with my boyfriend for 2 years now. When we first started going out he said he wanted to take it low, yet introduced me to his mother 3 months after we met, she was excited to met the boys, when she actually met them she called them her grand children in front of everyone and loved them very much so that made it easy for my boyfriend to love them too.
Avatar f tn Never depend on the responsibilities of anotherperson no matter what babygirl and dont make it stress you its your child so give it your last name . Like he said he will see you in court thats fine if he wants to be a "little boy" let him.
Avatar f tn How is one supposed to cope with eveyday living when one feels so vile? The last two weeks I've had dreadful dizziness, bad headaches, my legs (left one mainly) is sore and gumbly. Going to the shop feels like climbing Everest. Mr dr is not happy about me driving with the dizziness. Yeah yeah., we're all in the same boat...but how do you cope and do STUFF when you're a single mum with no help around?

Avatar f tn Once again....I can't stand for hours on clinical, nor do I have the physical stamina for late nights, early clinicals & all that goes along with going to nursing school at 43 & balancing family responsibilities, feeling like this. I feel desperate for an answer as I feel like I'm seeing everything I've worked so hard to achieve going down the drain & most times, I'm don't have the fortitude to fight it. I suppose many have felt this way.
2137220 tn?1340741325 I need some help, I'm 31wks 5d and I'm going to start searching for reasonably priced nursing bras. I'm a 38 C and need an idea of what size to buy, and where they sell good quality bras that aren't to pricey!
Avatar f tn I am a ftm and have less than 12 weeks to go and need a new bra. I was considering just getting a good nursing bra, since I'll be needing one anyway. Where is a good place to find a nursing bra and are there any brands or types that you moms prefer?
Avatar f tn I recently had a friend tell me nursing bras with wire in them cuts off ur milk supply....I was wondering if thats true I like wire bras bc I have bigger boobs and it gives them shape but if it will cut off milk supply I dont want them....
10007886 tn?1413287174 Do y'all think that a nursing bra is an absolute must? I hate paying for bras because I think they are way too overpriced so if I don't have to buy more then I don't any to. I'd rather spend my money on something useful.
