If you let bipolar disorder untreated, it develops into something even more serious. People start cycling their moods and then depression sets in. About the genetic character of the disease, yes, there are some genetic factors that influence the developing of bipolar disease in children if parents have experienced it.

Yes, audio speakers can harm your hearing in time, if you use them too often and too loud. Any sound that goes beyond 75 decibels can produce damage to a human being’s tympanum. So be careful what you listen, and especially how you listen!

last week I came back from a Yangtze river cruise that lasted for 5 days and yesterday I observed that I have an unusual rash in the back of both knees. Is it possible that I have caught something?

Taking into account that you’ve just returned from a Yangtze river cruise, it might be something related to that, or not. You might have been bitten by a spider, but you say you have that in the back of both your knees. That is a very sensitive area, where important ganglions are located. Did you check the rest of your body? I think it would be better to see a doctor. I’m sure it’s nothing serious, but better safe than sorry, right?

It is clear that your body is weakened after a long period of convalescence, therefore you should begin an immune system boost program right away! I suggest you start with taking some multivitamins daily, accompanied by healthy eating habits. Also, some light to moderate exercise would make you feel stronger and more lively.

Does taking supplements make a good immune system boost technique?

Is a dental insurance equal to a dental plan?

question posted by Oliver on January 9th, 2009 08:36

accepted answer has been given by Carmen

Actually, the dental insurance is the same thing as a dental plan. The name is different because, probably, “plan” sounds better in a sales pitch. You know, most employers offer their employees health insurance “plans”.

If you’re experiencing low blood glucose level, the first thing you should do is eat a bar of chocolate and drink a lot of water so the sugar in the chocolate makes it fast towards your blood. After that, you should see a doctor.
