Pump therapy also enables the pump wearer to have more flexibility in what they can eat and also when they eat. The pump makes it easier to live life without limits and if you don't want to eat you don't have to eat. I love my pump and would recommend it to anyone as long as they were ready and wanted the responsibility of having a piece of hardware with them at all times. Even while they are sleeping.
They want me to do an angio but I cannot tolerate radiation and am hyper sensitive to dyes/tracers..so have requested an echo excercise test. Is the above statement referring to an artery problem? Is it anything to worry about?Do I need an angio or can an echo excercise test see whats going on?very confused...any ideas would be very much appreciated.
I have flexibility issues in almost all of my joints (Knees, elbow, wrist, ankle). Coincidentally, all the joints in the right side of my body are worse. I cannot squat as the back of my feet cannot touch my butt, my hand cannot touch my shoulder, cannot do pushup as wrist will hurt a lot.
I have done xrays but doctor said my xrays are fine. Went through physiotherapy but joints flexibility does not improve no matter how much i stretched.
Usually the main predictors of aortic dissection are family history, aortic size, and aortic flexibility. For someone of your aortic size, I would take it easy. Try the ARB approach with a max or ultra-max high dosage (as long as your doctor lets you) and see if that reduces aortic size and aortic flexibility (the "pulse pressure" is one way to estimate the flexibility - Google it). If so, then perhaps you can talk to your doctor about athletics.
Stretching isn't the best way to improve flexibility—lifting weights through a full range of motion is, according to a recent study at the University of North Dakota. Pausing for 2 to 3 seconds at the "down" position of the lift (where you feel the stretch) without relaxing your muscles is even more effective.

To me, the basic difference is variability and flexibility. With Lantus, you know exactly what you are dosing, and you also dose exactly the amount of fast acting you need. With 70/30 there is a lot extra to take into account. I personally don't know many, if any, people who are still using mixed insulin, except in poorer countries where they can't get anything else.
i hv my last period on 29th jan 2010. i had a positive ovalution test on 3rd march. and i got my urine and blood test positive pregnancy. i am 4 weeks pregnant now. my doc says my hcg is not doubling , but increased by 70% in 48 hours. i had another test yesterday. just waiting for monday for my results. i am having symptoms too. little worried, as its my first pregnancy. can anybody help me? is it normal about my HCG?
I had one night with nausea and a cold sweat, then one time feeling winded after climbing the stairs. This is my second time around and I actually recognised those symptoms from last time! No morning sickness for me, thankfully - friends of mine aren't so lucky, I enjoy that fact quietly to myself ;)
There's tons of advice I could give but the big ticket item is YOGA. So good.
I am very active and cycle about 5 hours a week and about 5 hours a week of more weight bearing exercise. I have not been able to regain full flexibility to the knee, I am lacking 10 degrees of motion. I ice my knee most every day after exercising. I completed a series of 3 shots of Euflexxa about 6 weeks ago and have felt no difference from that. I started physical therapy twice a week for the last three weeks which lasts about 1.
If you can understand that with increasing age the flexibility decreases and you can regain that with much practice and concentration. You need to strengthen your feet with proper exercise and control over a period of time, we are sure you can do better than what you are doing now and under a good trainer. Take care!

I have a bulging L5 - S1 that has been causing problems for just over a year now. I've had 4 epidurals, and have been taking pain pills daily. About 6 month ago I started getting really bad upper back spasms, I had an MRI, CT Scan, and Ultra Sound that all came back clear. I got another epidural about a month ago and the back spasms went away (they are starting to come back as the epidural is wearing off).
But also, as we age our flexibility diminishes. So flexibility should be focused on as well. Youre target heart range after you have been cleared is (220-your age) x .85
You are not too old to increase your strength, flexibility endurance or efficiency. In fact, since you are so out of shape-it will be more likely that you will have a steep curve of improvement with some concerted effort.
Thank you for the response. It was suggested that I follow up with a nuclear stress test. I have no other symptoms and only had the echo because I had experienced a panic attack after the loss of a family member. My blood presure is 102/69 my cholesterol was 108 and my weight 113 for 5'6. I walk 3 times a day at a brisk pace. I am considering following up with the stress test.
When I was first diagnosed with diabetes I was on basal-bolus. I had one very serious low. I hated it as there was no flexibility in eating. I then changed to basal-bolus and not only did I have much better control and excellent flexibility, I no longer have any serious lows.
Working with a chiropractor, I got a hip flexor malady adjusted; the PT said I needed to work on flexibility. My left leg kind of 'hangs/float' and doesn't extend out normally. I feel it even when I'm walking. The odd part is that I can't really self-correct it with mental striving. I'm thinking it's more than just bad flexibility - wondering if I'm not really neurologically talking to my lower leg?
In my interpretation of that first sentence, they see an area in one test that corresponds to imaging of lack of wall movement or flexibility (akinesia). This is on the inferior and inferoseptal wall of your heart and remember the heart is a muscle. The area is getting bigger and extending into the mid wall as well. And the area may become unviable. Yes, this would concern me. Do you have cardiomyopathy? I'm assuming congestive heart failure as well? May I ask your age?
At age 13 (13 years ago) I had both my hips pinned due to a slipped capital femoral epiphysis on both sides. I have issues in mobility and flexibility and was wondering if there was any surgeries or treatments available to enhance my mobility. Thanks.
One study performed at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill showed that subjects who performed dynamic warm-ups had higher performance in the vertical jump test than those who just did standard stretching. Dynamic flexibility, which is moving your muscles and joints within your full range of motion repetitively, should be performed before weightlifting because it stimulates higher neural activity and increases tissue elasticity.
