<p>Any surgery has its own sets of risks and complications. So it is advisable that before going into a surgery a patient should have a clear and complete knowledge of what the operation involves. It is generally the surgeon who explains beforehand what the patient might expect prior to and after the operation. Even the process of operation is at times explained, albeit in a lucid and easy to understand manner. It should be no else with this surgery also.Why would one go for LASIK surgery? Primarily because it is generally accepted these days that that surgery comes with the promise of improving one&#8217;s vision permanently so that the need for glasses or contact lenses is no longer there. So you are no longer dependent on them. In a way, you discover new liberty and freedom.So whom do you go to for a LASIK surgery? To the optometrist, of course. The first thing he will do is to conduct a number of tests on you to see if you are the right candidate for this surgery. Basically this eye surgery is used to cure three main types of eye conditions myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Myopia, also know as nearsightedness is the problem of not being able to see what is far away without glasses. Hyperopia, also known as farsightedness, is the other way round. Astigmatism is something different where the patient has irregularities in his cornea which as a result distorts the image formed on the retina of the eye.What will the optometrist be looking for? There are a few basic things that any optometrist will look for before a eye surgery. That would primarily include your eye health history. In case of a particular few diseases the chances of you undergoing a this surgery will significantly decrease. These would include glaucoma, herpes, eye injuries or thin corneas. Any of these conditions can disqualify you as a suitable candidate for eye surgery. Another important criterion is whether there has been an alteration in your eyewear prescription over the last year. Before this operation your eyes should be steady. If they are not then the optometrist might just postpone the surgery for a few months until he is satisfied that your eyes are ready to undergo that surgery.These are some of the basic things that you need to know as part of your pre-surgery preparation. Of course once you are considered suitable for the operation the doctor will brief you about the surgery itself and post operative care.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Wavefront technology in LASIK eye surgery has been touted as the greatest advancement in LASIK eye surgery for the past year or two. But a new innovation has revolutionized the field of LASIK eye surgery which promises to be bigger and better than the Wavefront innovation. This is iris registration.</p>
<p><img SRC="http://writer-girl.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/lasik01.jpg" ALT="lasik01.jpg" ALIGN="left" />Before we go into the details of what iris registration is let us first understand how a LASIK surgery is performed.</p>
<p>It takes about five to ten minutes to complete the operation. First a mild anesthetic will be administered. Also eye drops are used to numb the eye and avoid pain during the operation. Though the operation is pain free there have been patients who have complained of discomfort. Once the eye is numb, a little device known as the microkeratome is attached to a suction ring placed on the eye. The microkeratome has a blade which cuts a thin flap on the surface of the cornea. The doctor will next fold back the flap and expose the stroma which is basically a layer of tissue. The stroma is searched for debris and is then dried. Now the surgeon will ask you to focus on a fixed spot while he, with the aid of laser mends the corneal tissue according to results of pre-operation examination. Once through, the flap is put back to position and an eye patch is provided to allow it to heal.</p>
<p>Today the microkeratome has been replaced by Intralase where instead of the metal blade cutting the flap, the job is performed by a computer guided laser.</p>
<p>So what is iris registration? Previously, lasers followed the patient&#8217;s eye moving up, down, left or right. Therefore as long as you move your eye left or right or up or down the laser beam can track the movement of the eye fine. However, there are other ways in which you can move your eye. For example, you can you&#8217;re your eye closer to the laser or away from it. Iris registration can track such movements and relay them to the laser so that the operation becomes more accurate. So is the case with you eye rotating. You can rotate you eye clockwise or anti-clockwise, which previous lasers wouldn&#8217;t have tracked. But Iris registration doesn&#8217;t fail here too. This is truly a remarkable progress in the field of LASIK eye surgery.</p>
<p>Nearsightedness</p>
<p>Nearsightedness occurs when the eye is too long and light rays focus in front of the retina, instead of focusing on the retina. Some of the symptoms of nearsightedness are blurred distant vision, eyestrain, and squinting, along with having a difficult time seeing at night.</p>
<p>Although nearsightedness can be easily fixed with glasses or contact lenses (when not too severe), many people don&#8217;t like to hassle with either one. With this new lasik procedure, folks will now be able to have pure vision.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a TITLE="hema.jpg" HREF="http://writer-girl.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/hema.jpg"><img ALT="hema.jpg" SRC="http://writer-girl.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/hema.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>If you are suffering from hemorrhoids chances are that you are not eating right. Of course, this is not always the case but it is at least worth looking into. For some people a simple diet change is all that they need in order to get their hemorrhoids corrected, and their life back to normal.</p>
<p>When searching for a hemorrhoid diet you may want to consult with your doctor. This is not a necessity by any means, but they may be able to give you a better idea of what would work best for you.</p>
<p>To start, you will want to eat plenty of food that is high in fiber. Things such as green vegetables, apples, and whole grains are a great place to start; not to mention the fact that they taste great as well. The bottom line is that fiber is the best way to fight constipation that can lead to hemorrhoids.</p>
<p>In addition to what you eat, make sure that you also take the time to drink properly as well. Anything that is clear, such as water, will do your body good. Also remember to stay away from drinks with caffeine such as cola or coffee.</p>
<p>By going on a diet that is specifically tailored to fight hemorrhoids will allow you to stay pain free without much trouble at all. Many people feel that this is hard to do, but the fact of the matter is that you do not have to go crazy. Simply add some fiber to your diet and cut out the caffeine and you will be fine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a HREF="http://writer-girl.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/pils.jpg" TITLE="pils.jpg"><img SRC="http://writer-girl.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/pils.thumbnail.jpg" ALT="pils.jpg" ALIGN="left" /></a>There are many drugstore and alternative Internet products for treating hemorrhoids. Most of the products are not made to cure or eliminate hemorrhoids but to give you temporary relief of itching, pain, swelling or bleeding. I don’t recommend using any type of product that is not natural or that comes from a drugstore.</p>
<p>If the product contains petrochemicals, additives, coloring, dyes, or other chemicals, which enhance its appearance and feel, I would not use them. Most, if not all, of these chemicals will be absorbed into your body where your organs of elimination will have to deal with eliminating them.</p>
<p>All products whether drugs, drugstore medications, or natural formulations use chemicals, substances, oils, and herbs that have the following properties:</p>
<p>Anesthetics – suppresses pain and gives relief…any name with the suffix “caine” like tetracaine</p>
<p>Analgesics – suppresses and give pain relief – some of them are Anacin, Tylenol with Codeine, OxyContin, Darvocet, Ultracet</p>
<p>Vasoconstrictors – helps to narrow or constrict hemorrhoidal veins…any name with the suffix “rine” like phenylephrine</p>
<p>Lubricants – provide lubrication in the colon to relieve constipation – mineral oil, flax seed oil, castor, oil olive oil</p>
<p>Astringents – help to tighten tissue, which have been pushed out by hemorrhoid action – zinc oxide, witch hazel, calamine</p>
<p>Keratolytics – help to remove excess hemorrhoidal tissue. They are compounds of sulfur and salicylic acid<br />
Many of the drugstore medications have anesthetics. They can aggravate and irritate the hemorrhoids you’re trying to eliminate. If you are using one of these drugstore medications, consider using a more natural remedy.</p>
<p>In 1975 Carl I. Flath, wrote a book called The Miracle Nutrient – How Dietary Fiber Can Save Your Life. In his book he talks about the effectiveness of drugstore suppositories,</p>
<p>“Suppositories quickly work their way up in the rectum beyond the location of most internal hemorrhoids, and so are of limited value in reducing local pain. As antiseptics they are essentially worthless, since the surface areas they are supposed to protect are under constant exposure to new bacteria….</p>
<p>Anesthetic agents do offer temporary relief from local irritations and pain… Neither the suppositories nor the ointments, however, do anything whatever to correct the basic cause of hemorrhoids—constipation.”</p>

<p>Im not satisfied with my cup size but i wouldnt want to undergo surgery or so whatsoever that deals anything with surgery. Even though it may not be encouraged, there are some females who get breast implants to for Breast Enhancement. This might not be a safe way to go about getting your breasts enhanced because there is always a risk for problems such as problems with breast feeding, problems with the implant itself and a risk for infection.</p>
<p>If you are really considering breast implants as a way to enhance your breasts, you need to think carefully and speak to a doctor about it because it is nothing to be taken lightly.  I cant stand needles and for sure implants will really look unnatural and i dont like that either so i guess creams and pills are just for me. Since its surgery so im kinda scared of the results. Ive read a lot of article regarding woman who had their breast done and the result was a nightmare. well i know not everything would be like that but i just cant deal with it.</p>
<p>There is another <a HREF="http://breastenhancementguides.com">natural breast enhancement</a> treatment that is safer than breast implants. Im thankful at least they already invented Breast Enhancement Creams which i think would really work for me.  It&#8217;s <a HREF="http://breastenhancementguides.com/perfect-woman-review.html">perfect woman cream</a> , havent tried anything yet though but ill be willing to check those Breast Enhancement Pills and creams right after reading some reviews of breast enhancement guides. they have wide list of pills and creams with ratings on it so atleast to give you an idea which products really works and which one is safe.</p>
<p>Many woman i pressume would really try everything just to improve their cup sizes . Paying tons of money just to have it done. Well atleast now we do have some options either we can have surgery or just taking pills and putting on creams.</p>
<p>With Breast Enhancement guides they also provide you some views on breast enhancement food, breast enhancement tips, <a HREF="http://breastenhancementguides.com/breast-actives-review.html">breast active</a> , options and information, natural breast enhancement exercise, natural breast enhancement supplements and more.</p>
<p>You can find all sorts of advices and resources towards improving your breast and also a blog which would help you find the best natural breast enhancement there is,hence we knew that there are lot being sold in the market. if its gonna boast your self - esteem why not go for it, so try what suits you best.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A high fiber diet obtained from raw fruits and vegetables is what you need to follow for eliminating and for preventing constipation and is what you need to prevent and cure hemorrhoids.</p>
<p>If you have not been eating a lot of fiber, you need to add fiber slowly to your diet especially if you add it by using bran. Increase your use of bran or other bran cereals over a couple of weeks.</p>
<p>If you add fiber to your diet with fruits and vegetables, you can add them freely without much problem. However, since your stomach will not be used to it, you may experience more gas for a week or two.</p>
<p>Here are some of the foods to start using:</p>
<p>Juices</p>
<p>Juices are good for hemorrhoids but especially dark berry juice mixed with equal parts of apple juice. The dark berry juices to use are:</p>
<p>1. Cherries, blackberries, blueberries</p>
<p>These berries contain “anthocyanins” and “proanthocyanidins” which reduce hemorrhoidal pain and swelling by toning and strengthening the hemorrhoidal veins. Drink at least one glass of this juice mixture each day.</p>
<p>2. Red and black currant berries</p>
<p>Currants are high in Vitamin C, rutin, and minerals. This makes their juice valuable in clearing hemorrhoids. They also have a small amount of the fatty acid GLA, which produce prostaglandin that control body pain. Drink 1-2 glasses a day of red or black currant berries.</p>
<p>Iron foods</p>
<p>Here are the foods that contain iron to help you build up your blood or to keep iron in reserve, if you ever need it.</p>
<p>* Chicken liver, steamed crab<br />
* Kelp<br />
* Prunes<br />
* Dried apricots<br />
* Sunflower seeds<br />
* Pistachios<br />
* Cashews, almonds, sesame seeds<br />
* Baked potatoes<br />
* Cooked Swiss chard<br />
* Raisins<br />
* Cooked broccoli<br />
* Tuna<br />
* Cantaloupe</p>
<p>Cantaloupes are one of the best foods you can eat. It has a good source of vitamins and minerals. It has a high beta-carotene level and has anti-clogging properties.</p>
<p>Ginger, garlic, and onion</p>
<p>Add these three herbs to your diet. Each one of these helps to break down fibrin. Fibrin is a natural substance that helps to repair breaks in tissue, organs, and arteries. However, there are times that your body may over react and deposited too much fibrin causing inflammation in the arteries and especially in the hemorrhoid area.</p>
<p>Oils</p>
<p>At every meal, use olive oil, flax seed oil, and apple cider vinegar in your salad. In your soups, use olive and flax seed oil or other food dishes where they is appropriate. Or at the end of each meal take your capsule of fish oil.</p>
<p>Fish oil is probably one of the most important oils to use daily. Go to my newsletter to read the article I wrote about this nutrient.</p>
<p>Use the following foods to help reduce hemorrhoidal bleeding:</p>
<p>* Alfalfa<br />
* Dark green leafy vegetables<br />
* Blackstrap molasses<br />
* Flax seeds - are high in omega-3 oils, which reduce inflammation and pain. They are also high in fiber.<br />
* Lima and butter beans are high in iron, which help to build more blood. If you have bleeding hemorrhoids, adding lima beans to your diet would be a good choice.</p>
<p>There you have it. Plenty of remedies that can give you temporary relief, reduce bleeding, reduce swelling, eliminate itching, and cure or prevent your hemorrhoids.</p>

<p>In one of the most promising developments in more than 20 years, scientists claim that drugs used to control HIV/AIDS in patients may also be effective in preventing the disease in the first place.</p>
<p>The drugs in question are tenofovir (Viread) and emtricitabine, or FTC (Emtriva), sold in combination as Truvada by Gilead Sciences Inc. Gilead is the California company best known for inventing Tamiflu.</p>
<p>Previous research has been aimed at finding a vaccine against HIV/AIDS, with the intention of conditioning the immune system against the disease. But these drugs work differently. They simply keep the virus from reproducing, and have already been used successfuly by health care workers to prevent them from being infected by the virus carried by patients.</p>
<p>This approach to fighting HIV/AIDS has been tempting researchers for many years, but has only recently become feasible as preventative drugs have been developed that are safe for non-infected persons to take. Previous drugs had unreasonable effects for uninfected persons.</p>
<p>That situation changed when Tenofovir came on the market in 2001. Tenofovir is powerful and safe, and it only has to be taken once a day. It also does not interact with other medicines or birth control pills, and manifests less drug resistance than other AIDS medications.</p>
<p>Monkey studies show exciting results</p>
<p>A major study by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) in Atlanta, Georgia involved six macaques. The monkeys were given a combination of Tenofovir and FTC and then administered a deadly combination of monkey and human AIDS viruses. They were given the viruses in rectal doses to simulate contact between gay men.</p>
<p>Each was given 14 weekly exposures of the virus, and none of the monkeys became infected. In a control group which did not receive the drugs, all but one got the disease, normally after just two exposures.</p>
<p>The scientists then stopped giving the drugs to the test group to see if the prevention was only temporary. The results were equally impressive. None of the monkeys contracted the disease. “We’re now four months following the animals with no drug, no virus. They’re uninfected and healthy,” reported a CDC researcher.</p>
<p>Now other research teams are pushing to have this drug combination tested on humans. A $29 million CDC study of drug users in Botswana will now be switched to this new drug combination.</p>
<p>Another study of 400 heterosexual women in Ghana by the Family Health Initiative, and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, is studying the effects of tenofovir alone.</p>
<p>But several other studies have failed to materialize because studies of this nature immediately raise suspicions that scientists are using local people as guinea pigs. The fear is that they will intentionally expose the test subjects to the virus.</p>
<p>The cost of tenofovir and Truvada also make testing difficult. In African countries condoms are now liberally donated by companies, aid groups, UN agencies, and western governments. While the drugs are relatively cheap, the cost remains an impediment.</p>
<p>Nevertheless researchers have been reinvigorated by the stunning results out of Atlanta, and new tests are going ahead in pockets of interest around the world.</p>
