Health Boards Please help me interpret my lab results

Health Boards Soy products and hypothyroidism  
07:06 31-May-07   [Replies: 8, Views: 188]    By: Unnamed
I recently started eating a lot of soy products thinking they were healthy and also because I became lactose intolerant recently, but I'm thinking now that this was a contributor to my recent thyroid problems. Could this be the case? If so, most ...

10:02 15-May-07   [Replies: 16, Views: 251]    By: Unnamed

Health Boards Can low estrogen affect blood sugar levels?  
08:00 15-May-07   [Replies: 2, Views: 120]    By: Unnamed
I've only been testing my blood sugar for 2 days, but so far, even when I'm having symptoms of low blood sugar, it's still in the normal range. I wondered if having low estrogen would affect it as far as having symptoms even if the numbers aren't...

Health Boards When should a dr take an MRI?  
16:11 25-Apr-07   [Replies: 14, Views: 195]    By: Unnamed
In my X-ray, the doctor saw my lower disc had no gap, yet she still wanted to try the injections first (more of a trial and error). I'm very leary of these for various reasons, but I can't imagine that if you see something abnormal on an X-ray, t...

I have to get these injections and wanted to know if there was much pain and if it helped. Also, can you really not drive yourself after or go to work? I made the appointment for 8:30am and am not sure I can get a ride. I also planned on going to...

My z-score for my spine is 2.6. I've read that if you have osteo of the spine, you shouldn't get massages. I was wondering if that was really true or if it was even ok to use those massage chairs. Will both do damage? ...
