Forum / Health / Why do so many people feel ignorance is bliss when it comes to their health? |
on: 28-02-2010 08:04 PM
| So many diseases can be prevented or better dealt with if people would find out about them in their early stages yet so many people refuse to go to the doctor and check, especially on the things that run in their family or are common like hypertension and diabetes. Then there are so many who have unprotected sex (oral, genital or anal) and never get themselves tested for STDs.
I know some of these tests are expensive, but even when free testing is offered many do not take advantage of it.
Is it that the fear of what they might find out is so overwhelming or is it something else? | | |

Forum / Health / Re: O- and O+ does it really matter? |
on: 28-02-2010 07:27 PM
| This is very interesting indeed...I didnt now about the rhesus incompatibility in O- women affecting their posibility for successful pregnancies after the first birth, pending their child is rh+, but this has led me to another question.
The discussions have given me the impression that the development of antibodies following childbirth is linked to the rh factor. All the doctors that have talked about it only applied it to the O- blood group but does this rhesus incompatibility apply to all rh- females in pregnancy i.e. if a A- female has a child with an A+ man, will she also have the risk of developing antibodies agains the rh+ factor if her first child is rh+?
If this is not the case why is it that it only applies to the rh- factor on blood type O?

Forum / Health / Re: Causes of stretch marks |
on: 28-02-2010 06:48 PM
| I think they are caused when you gain or loose size in one area too much too fast. Skin is kinda like a head band...it has a certain amount of elasticity to it but when you stretch it too far too fast and it has to hold this new stretched out position, it cant shrink back to its original size so that's why you get the marks. Taking care of your skin helps it to have better elasticity so you can avoid getting stretch marks, even after pregnancy which I guess is the most extreme case of skin stretching in people. | | |

| Well...I seek advise on what I have not experienced before which is love at first sight. I always believed that you cannot just love someone you have just met...that you have to get to know the person first...but from the first conversation my feelings were so strong for this man and we are still getting to know each other but already I love him. This to me is strange and so this is what I seek advise on.
When I gave advise I was only advising not to give up on love. To me love is the greatest thing anyone can hope to experience and no one should give up on it until they find it. Also I think people who give up on love will eventually become like the people who caused them to give up on love and does one who seek love really want to be transformed into a player? I would not think so...just as someone who is abused would not like to be transformed into an abuser. To me if you give up you increase the chance of becoming the monster that terrorized you in the first place. | | |

| I'm sorry you do not believe in love anymore. I have also been hurt many times and have witness friends being hurt also but I have also witnessed friends having love so I did not give up on it. Well I hope that you will find true love. It is hard to find because their are so many people out there who let money and sex cause them to forget about how much better love is but just as you are still searching there are more searching and hopefully you will meet one of those persons and you can both be happy. | | |

| Well I dont know what imbe means. But if he becomes crippled I will still love him. The only way I will not love him is if he was acting the whole time we were talking and when I meet him I discover his is a different person from the person he showed me he is. | | |

| I have never believed in love at first sight but now here I am totally in love with someone I have just met. We have never met in person, only talked via messenger, yet I have never felt so happy loving him.
Has anyone else experienced this kind of love? | | |

| No matter how much you love him the fact that he has threatened you means he is not in loved with you but he is obsessed and you need to keep as far away from him as you can. You must at least tell your parents or police about this threat. | | |

Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Re: Man kills 3-yr-old daughter over food |
on: 24-10-2009 04:17 PM
| Unbelievable. It dont sound right to me people blaming poverty for what this man do. If this man own family didnt want him to take custody of his children they had to know he had something within him making him unfit to care for those children or knew that he was not in control of himself and could have harmed his children. Furthermore why does he have kerosine in a place where his 3 and 1 year old can get to it? If the children had died from drinking the kerosine would others still be blamed for their death? This is just poor parenting and this father need to pay for killing his child. | | | |
