TO: Ihave been experiencing pain and swelling in my right grion. Ihave been to 3 doctors ,on antibiotics and anti swelling drugs ,nothing so far has helped. They all agree it is not a herinia. A surgen says it is swollen lymph glands and wants to take them out. One PA told me a blood test would determine if it was cancer or not .
I highly suggest you see a doctor, but not in THAT area. Go to Charleston, even Morgantown....Pittsburg....anywhere but Elkins.
Sounds like sciatica. -- see a Chiropractor.

The Adkin's Diet is just like any other diet. It works while your on it BUT if you fall off the wagon the weight is back plus some. AS BAD AS IT SOUNDS good Sense and Exercise is the key to healthy weight loss and must be a life time routine.
I was wondering if any one else ever had this problem. While I'm sitting at my computer,for about 5 mintues,my left leg goes numb,I can't feel anything tell i walk around for a few mintues. And if I go back to sit again the same thing happens ,I can only stay on about 15 mintues a day.

I'm glad to hear of one person having success with carpal tunnel surgery.
Yes, you should have blood work done to rule out cancer. Immediately.

I had nerve conduction tests and was diagnosed with carpal tunne in 1985. I guess I kind of put things off for a while. I had surgery last week at Dr. Topping's office.My hand felt better the next day. I have no more numbness or pain and have not been woke up at nigth with problems. Thanks Doc
I highly recommend the Belington Medical Clinic. They have hours Monday-Saturday at all hours. They try to keep costs low and work with you. They are very caring and kind. They also have any early-morning Sick Mother/Sick Child walk-in hours starting at 7am everyday.
Most doctors in Elkins are not accepting new patients or are hard to get an appt. with.
DR> KHAN IM SO SORRY ABOUT YOUR MOTHER. I DID NOT KNOW ANY THING ABOUT IT TILL NOW> YOU ARE THE BEST DOCTOR IN TOWN. YOU SAVED MY BOYS LIFE. I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU. MAY GOD BLESS YOU.
The truth is, your gennitics play a more vital role in wheather you will get heart disease or not. If your family members die of cancer or kidney failure then your safe.
It's a good thing some SSI receipients get extra $$$ for the wife and kids. That way they can afford to eat at the donut shop every morning and run their cadilac through the car wash more often. Not able to work, aeh? Sure can walk through the malls to shop and parking lots to ball games. What a ripoff to the taxpayers. Shame on you.
That's why I eat fish and chicken primarily. I only eat about 1 ounce of cheese a day. Also only 2-3 eggs a week.

FDA, Wisconsin Spar Over Prescription Web Site
By Kim Dixon
CHICAGO (Reuters) - U.S. regulators and Wisconsin are sparring over the state's aggressive efforts to encourage its citizens to buy cheaper pharmaceuticals across the border in Canada, a battle which escalated this week.
Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle, a Democrat, blasted a letter he received late Thursday from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (news - web sites), warning the state that its Web site threatens the public health by advocating citizens to buy illegal drugs.
"All we've done is try to find a vehicle for Wisconsin citizens to get cheaper prescription drugs, and the FDA is turning a deaf ear to the needs of citizens," Marc Marotta, a top aide to Doyle, told Reuters.
Doyle believes 40,000 citizens in Wisconsin have ordered pharmaceuticals through the state's site, which links to three Canadian pharmacies inspected by state advisors.
A growing number of people are buying drugs from Canada, where they can cost up to 70 percent less than in the United States, mostly owing to greater government regulation there.
Federal regulators say the practice is illegal and risky, but cash-strapped states and cities like Wisconsin are increasingly helping individual efforts.
"The drugs that your citizens will purchase from the Canadian pharmacies to which you refer them will clearly be illegal under federal law," the FDA wrote in the letter to Doyle, dated March 18.
The FDA operates under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (news - web sites), run by former Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson.
At least 25 states and 15 localities are looking into buying drugs from Canada as they wrestle with double-digit health inflation.
"It is disappointing that the FDA continues to try to scare people," Doyle said in a statement.
"If the federal government continues to do nothing to help our citizens with the high price of prescription drugs, Wisconsin will continue to act on its own," he said.
Washington, D.C.'s official Web site now links to the Wisconsin site, and Minnesota also set up a similar site recently.
The pharmaceutical industry opposes importation from Canada, and the United States remains the sector's most lucrative market.

not so much grease...but fat...your not suppose to eat so much meat and eggs and cheese all the time...its bad for your heart...
Where does the grease come from you are talking about? As I said, you must make good choices. I eat white meat chicken and turkey, fish, deer meat (no cholesterol) and I bake or broil, no frying. So where's the grease? It sounds like you weren't following the diet as you are supposed to. I haven't felt this good in years. I have lost weight and have lots of energy. I swear by the Atkins diet!

Yes,I agree also Dr. Khan is a great doctor, he trys to find out what is wrong with his patients, and if he doesn't know what is wrong he keeps giving test or refers you to another doctor to help to find out what is wrong. Dr, Khan keep up the good work!

yes, Dr. Khan is one of the best in Elkins..
I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR THAT DR KHANS MOM DIED...HE IS A WONDERFUL DOCTOR AND SO CARING....
Since this webpage is supposed to be about HEALTH, is it possible that people would share their experiences with local doctors and other health care providers?
It seems impossible to find out who is the best in their field of expertise!
If we indeed share our knowledge about local health care providers, we may find out how to avoid going to doctors, etc. who do not provide good quality healthcare to our community!
How about it, Elkins, can we share our info on this HEALTH section?
I WORK FOR A LOCAL DR AND HE SAYS STAY ON THE ATKINS DIET NO LONGER THAN 3 MONTHS...BECAUSE OF HIGH CHOLESTEROL LEVELS...BAD FOR YOUR HEART....I TRIED IT MYSELF...2 WEEKS WAS IT...THATS JUST TOO MUCH GREASE AND FAT..FAT...CLOGGING YOUR ARTERIES....

Actually, it's more like 3 or 4 days, but if you can make it that long the cravings just stop! You don't get any hunger pangs either. I still think you can make bad choices on this diet. If you eat a lot of red meat and eggs your cholesterol is bound to go up. Just use good sense.

So if you make it through 2 days the cravings arent as bad or do they go away? I know your body is like going through a withdraw for sugar. I could try for 2 days though if it gets better after that.
I started on the Atkins diet 7 weeks ago and have lost 20 pounds.
When did you start and have much weight have you lost?

On the Atkins diet you can eat any kind of fish, fowl, shellfish, meat, eggs, cheese, & salad veggies. Also real butter, sour cream and cream. The trick is to keep your carb intake down to 20g per day when first starting out. What I really like about this diet is that you don't get hungry. If you want something extra there are acceptable snacks. If you can get through the first few days you have it made. That is when you will have most of your cravings.

There was a Doctor on tv just a few days ago and he said you should not stay on the atkins diet for more than 3 months
I have been on the Atkins diet for 7 weeks and have lost 20 pounds. I am not a doctor, but I think it would be ok to stay on the diet for more than 3 months as long as you are on a good multi-vitamin and instead of eating a lot of red meat substitute fish and other kinds of seafood, chicken or turkey. Also, deer meat has no cholesterol. Same with buffalo, if you can find it.

I can only tell you that an operation for carpal tunnel never worked in my case, and since I've found others who had the same experience. I asked this doctor and he said there is no known cause for the problem.
No ,it is for low income,some people that get SSI get a medical card and also some people that only get around $600.00 from social security get a medicade card also.

Columbia University has a GREAT site. Go Ask Alice. This site is particularly good for teens who have questions but want to be discreet. Try it kids! I gave it to mine years ago. Parents, you won't regret it, and you may want to go there too! goaskalice.columbia.edu/

yea the chamber is one of the good ole boy groups.......how sick....brenda pritt thinks she is better than she really is..she is nothing in my book
the Chamber is making me sick, where can I go to get a prescription that will make them go away?
What the chamber of commerce is doing is supporting business in NUTTER FORT not elkins. For example there copier broke and so they looked for bids. They got one from nutter fort and one from the Sharp dealer in elkins. The elkins bid was $1000 cheaper and they bought there copier from nutter fort....way to go....thanks for back stabbing elkins brenda pritt
Since this is the HEALTH site, I would like to recommend that everyone complete an Advanced Directive.This is pre-planning your health care decisions when you are unable to speak for yourself when you are in a medical crisis. Contact any medical, long term care facility for more information. You'll be glad you completed one.The best part is that you can change your mind about a treatment option by completing another Advanced Directive and it does not become effective unless you are unable to speak for yourself.
For all who are interested in long term care providers for the elderly . . .
