Avatar f tn I definitely learned my lesson, I just wish my welding teacher went over some plasma cutter safety before letting us use it. it could of saved me and everyone else in my class from hurting there eyes.
Avatar m tn the other issue that can also affect the heart is vibration so if you are welding something and it is causing a vibration in your body via your hands or you are pressed up against the table and are welding tabletop try not to press your stomach against the table if possible...that may be sort of what you have heard...
Avatar m tn Arc welding with a pacemaker. Is there any protection? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/870238'>Pacemaker and protective devices while welding....</a>.
Avatar m tn I had surgery few years ago in my right eye so it becomes blurry. Will this affect my left eye? I'm afraid it does because my left eye is the only reason my "overall" vision is clear and this could stress my left eye a lot. If it really does, will wearing a glasses alone help it?
Avatar m tn the marine paints around where he was welding would give off fume as well as fume from his welding rods and wedling site. we know one of the Paints it was Zinc Chromate Hexavelant Cromium VI ..the other marine paints where red and white in colour. one night at work a large amount of the yellow hexavelant paint was ground off above his head...he both breathed in the toxic dust and the the toxic fumes as it landed on his welding site...

Avatar n tn AHA Recommendation: Power-generating equipment, arc welding equipment and powerful magnets (as in medical devices, heavy equipment or motors) can inhibit pulse generators. Patients who work with or near such equipment should know that their pacemakers may not work properly in those conditions.
Avatar f tn Thank you for your response.. the problem here is i reside in Portugal not in the U.S. i only need advice about my symptoms and how i can advice my eye doc. I believe i had retinal burns after the exposure..but the injection i received in my left eye worsen my situation. now my left eye where i received the injection is a bit swollen, my central vision is blurry and wavy, when i look at objects e.g windows or door frames from a distance is not always in their right shape.
Avatar m tn This can be verified simply by pointing an auto shading welding helmet at the sun. How does this affect us? the lack of IR. Any possible bad side effects?
Avatar m tn You need to see an ophthalmologist, if possible a retina specialist. In my opinion you should have been referred.
Avatar m tn Could inhalation of a large amount of cement dust cause respiratory failure in a COPD patient which then could lead to death?
Avatar f tn I worked -in my younger days-for a brief time- in an steel plant as a management trainee and part of the initial safety training -for every employee-dealt with the dangers of exposure to metals,gases and various toxins. The main one was manganese and the related disease was nick-named welder's disease. Very common and very dangerous! The effects of excessive pot use on short term memory are well known.
Avatar f tn me and my boyfriend (long distance) have both admitted to each other we're virgins. we've also discovered i'm the one with more experience. he's never gotten a ******** or a hand job, etc. i'm going over to visit him for a while in the summer, i've arranged to get on the birth control pill, and had mutliple talks with my mother and experienced friends about it's use in preventing pregnancies.
Avatar f tn My question is will it harm me in any way for staying on it? I dont want to cause any more problems for myself by staying on it but evidently I lack serotonin and the paxil replaces it. Any info that you might give me would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar f tn Doggie is always safe, I'm not sure about the jumping jack though.
Avatar f tn It shoul be fine but always take precaution because semen can cause contractions, happen to me. But you are still early in the game.
