Avatar m tn s DNA, then gene therapy for diseases would be a breeze. As it is, even under the most ideal, lab-controlled situations, it is very difficult to get human cells to incorporate foreign DNA, rather than rejecting it.

428506 tn?1296557399 It makes me mad, too. But note that an MD wrote this, and I think several of the comments are also made my MD's. I think it's important for us to be aware of how this topic is viewed by the people who we trust to help us. Personally, I'm not convinced by the "other side." To me, saying that there is no proof is a poor argument. Research is lacking, and testing methods are still capable of evolving.

Avatar f tn The human tongue has a habit. A big one of showing hydration, the human body it also reacts and pinpoints areas in serious need. Your throats dry? Your tongue is pink exposing moisture and bringing moisture to the first area to effectively solve the problem. Yes, I'm going to say it. Drink water. Lots of it, not at once and believe you resolved the problem instantly that your body has with your daily liquid habits. Soda coffee, alcohol etc... All of your issues had a commonality though.
Avatar n tn Each time the activities that took place were french kissing, protected blowjob (apart from one time), unprotected cunnilingus (tongue deep in to the vagina) and protected sex.

Avatar m tn Ever since I have had strange foreign object sensations in the throat, a white furry tongue, rhinitis, sinusitis, headaches, laryngitis and intermittent facial pains around the upper teeth area.

Swabs have been taken of the back of the throat and tongue and nothing has been found.

I also drink a lot and have been stressed a lot so maybe those contribute.
