I had a temporary crown put in 4 days ago. I had a tooth with a slight crack in it above the gum line in one cusp that was little sensitive to cold and pressure, so I opted for a crown before it got worse. The permanent crown is scheduled to go on in 7 days. Two days after the temp was put in a small part of it chipped off exposing part of the prepared tooth underneath. This spot was then a little sensitive to very cold liquids. My dentist put a little resin in the gap for my comfort but that has come off. I told him it was not that big a deal. I feel nothing as long as I avoid really cold drinks in that area. He suggested that I just leave it and clean it well until the permanent crown goes in a few days. He said no damage will occur in that short period and there was no use in running to him every day or so to have the little spot filled with resin that will likely come out again. I have no problem with this because the discomfort is rare and mild. Is the dentist correct that this no big deal for a few days?

My father is 50 and I just found out he knocked up his 34 year old girlfriend. My father isn’t in great health. He has diabetes’s, high blood pressure and a few other things. Both of his parents died before 55 from the same things and his brother died last year at 52 from a heart attache. My father and his girlfriend live in very poor conditions. Small trailer that is very dirty, dogs use the bathroom all over the floor and she also does not work. She has 3 other kids from other men that she does not get child support from. How hard/easy would it be for me (a single woman) to take custody from her when I live in another state? I make enough money to live comfortable even with a child. I also live in a nice clean home and in a very good school district. I just don’t want my sibling to live in a dirty environment.
Oh and when I say dirty enviroment. I don’t mean an unkept home. I mean the enviroment is a hazard to the childs health. They have decomposing garbage in their yard (rusting can lids). Bugs in the house. Leaking roofs. Exposed wires. Stuff like that.

So my mom drives an 06 Chevy Suburban LTZ. The other day she noticed the oil pressure gauge read 80(all the way tot he right) when it usually read 40(direct center) and since I’m an automotive student I have to fix it.. I checked it out and confirmed that the reading on the gauge is incorrect. I also disconnected the sensor and tried just cleaning both ends but that did no good. My automotive teacher said it may most likely be an open circuit or a short to ground. I know very little about electrical but wouldn’t an open circuit mean there is no power to the gauge meaning the gauge would read zero? How would I go about diagnosing how to fix this problem? Any help with this problem would be most appreciated
Reads zero with it disconnected

So far I change the fuel filter, clean the mass air senor, clean air filter, change spark plug wires, I don’t have a gauge so I can’t check the fuel pressure.but it has to be getting fuel if its jumping. Timing belt is good. What else should I check?

A little over five years ago, a doctor told me I had pulmonary hypertension (46mmgh on echocardiogram). Since then I married and had a child, and in 2007 I went to another cardiologist for another echo and he said IF you have PH it is very mild (24mmgh by echo).

Skip to 2009, I am now in my second pregnancy and the condition came up again (59mmgh by echo). Today I went in for a f/u echo and the doctor said you definately have pulmonary hypertension; but then he asked did they give you a green light to become pregnant? and I explained that they told me I didn’t have it. So I asked him if the pressures were high, and he said that PH could not be diagnosed by that type of echo (same type where they measured peak pressures of 59mmgh) and that they would need to do a catheterization to confirm the diagnosis.

So I’m very confused; on one hand he says I have it on the other he says it can’t be diagnosed by echo–in ‘04 they said I had it, in ‘07 they said I didn’t, and now they’re saying I do. It seems like every time I have a test done something different pops up, the tech told me that this condition will never go away and that it doesn’t go away. So what’s right and what’s not? Is it diagnosed by echo or cath? Could the echocardiogram be wrong? I am getting the written report and taking it to the cardiologist who is currently treating me, but I wanted to do a little research to be better prepared. Please help if you can, thank you.
Thank you for your answer; I’m actually being treated at a teaching hospital right now and still unclear of what the true diagnosis is The first two doctors were private practices.

There is much controversy about the school lunch program, the food pyramid, and other actions that tend to favor the financial well-being of the food industry over the health of our children.

I knew it, you knew it. Finally the USDA admits it.

The FDA is trying to shorten the life expectancy of our children:

http://www.usda.gov/blog/usda/

Childhood obesity is one of the greatest public health crises facing the United States and the USDA is making every effort to make sure that today’s children are the first American generation to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents.

This is obviously a typo, but it seems to reveal a deeper truth. American children are suffering from excess consumption of fat, sugar, salt, dairy, and animal flesh. The consequences are obesity, high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, and diabetes. The science is clear, only our media is confused by the disinformation. Do you agree?
The US Agricultural Department is in charge of our school lunch program, and they buy up excess supply of dairy and meat to help stabilize the food market prices.

The science shows that Americans die from a diet in over rich animal proteins. It’s not just the fat. http://www.tcolincampbell.org

I am very irked. I just bought a car from my fiancé’s grand parents. Previously we both shared the car which belongs to him. Since I just got the car I decided to go out with my 2 female cousins and my gay nephew to a lounge. Now the week proceeding this Friday night my fiancé was aware that I was going to the lounge. I mentioned wanting to go out to my friend Cassandra and she mentioned that the lounge would be a great place to go because it wasn’t far and because she and a few other girls from high school were going and invited me to come out the next night to our friend Jennifer’s birthday. Of course I new my fiancé had some reservations about me going out as I don’t do it often because he becomes anxious and a bit snappy to the point of confrontation. Needless to say I ended up not going out but riding around trying to find a place that my nephew could get in to since he was under 21 which proved unsuccessful. I am growing increasingly angry at the idea that any time I make plans to go out that he will give me subtle attitude and distance himself from me as (unadmittedly) punishment for deciding to go out. I am faithful to him but I am starting to feel that my life is being dictated based on me needing to decided whether I want to choose to battle or feel slighted because I choose to go out once in a while or to spontaneously go window shopping. Either way I feel pressure for his approval on any personal choice to go anywhere or spend anything….any advice? P.S. He once referenced; don’t think you’re going to be going out all the time, now that I have my car!

He doesn’t go out with his boys but he goes to his soccer games on weekends with out me or the children or hunting from 4 am until around 8 pm with out one word from me. I didn’t drink when I went out this time….I don’t know how to approach this because he’s not easy to talk to and often it turn cantankerous! However he has really double standard views on our roles in the relationship and home.

I have been taking Concerta for about four years now and lately I’ve noticed that when I take my pill, nothing really seems to be any different besides the fact that I’ve stopped daydreaming obsessively and pay somewhat to meetings. Could my body be immune to Concerta now? I am now taking a 54 mg pill but I don’t think it’s helping. I’ve been stressing out and now have been diagnosed with high blood pressure.

My dad is in the navy and all my life I’ve wanted to be just like him.. Since I was 8 years old i’ve wanted to enlist in the military. My parents support all my decisions but I feel as though they are putting more pressure on me to join the military as soon as I graduate high school, that way they won’t have to pay for college because I will have 100% free school… I’m really smart and have considered doing the nuclear program in the Navy, but I’m not sure if its what I really want.. I guess I’m just having second thoughts and i’m apprehensive… I am open to any opinions or advice that you can offer on what I should do.. Go straight to college? or join the military first? thank you!
