  • In need of home relief for carpal tunnel?

    To keep it simple, I type for a living. I type for 4 or more hours a day and cannot get up and move around. I have to make sure I type fast, and catch all the important details. I try to adjust, or stretch my hand and arm. The pain is the worst in the wrist, left side, but has moved up the arm and just gotten worse. I have seen my doctor and she wants me to try home treatment before surgery. I have searched the web, tried ice, compression, and OTC pain killers, that only give short term minor relief. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

  • Need advice on Piping and plumbing issues?

    So the pipes under my home froze due to -9 degree weather. Once we got them thawed we only had cold water. Come to find out our water heater pipes froze as well. We are slowly thawing all the pipes. Now if we have all the faucets on in one bathroom and turn on the faucet in the kitchen the bathroom water flows stronger. What could this possibly mean? Any help would be great.

  • My husband still doesn't understand!!!?

    Ok so I've been married 3 years only lived with my hubby for a year and half due to military deployments. His mother treats me horribly and even efter seeing it first hand he tells me just to brush it off and not let it get to me. Yeah i give him credit since he partially stood up for me for the first time in our marriage. But i dont think he fully gets the stress it causes on our marriage or on me. Is there anything I can do to help him understand, or do i just need to see how things pan out? Any advice would be great!!

  • Is it illegal for a nurse to take immunizations out of her work?

    My MIL is a nurse and keeps asking me if I want a flu shot because she keeps them in her car. She takes them from her work and just gives them to whoever wants one. Is this illegal or anything, I assumed that it was, plus the ones of the family that get the shots from her have already gotten one and she is giving them a second, isn't that to much, don't you only need one?
