How can I get tested to see if I have chronic fatigue syndrome?
Answer:
It is a diagnosis of exclusion when all known medical causes of fatigue are ruled out. Some clinicians doubt the existence of this syndrome.
Ask your doctor about it.
Chronic fatigue syndrome is defined as long-standing, severe, disabling fatigue without demonstrable muscle weakness. Underlying disorders that could explain the fatigue are absent. Depression, anxiety, and other psychologic diagnoses are typically absent. Treatment is rest and psychologic support, often including antidepressants.
Please see the web pages for more details on Chronic fatgue syndrome.
There is no real test for it. It is something your doctor will determine as to your symptoms and the tests that he takes compared to your symptoms. It has many symptoms
The best specialist for testing this illness is a Neuro Doc or a Radiologist, both know best how to test for the systems of this strange illness. But many may require a referral from your regular doctor, so ask around. Most insurance companies will not accept a special doctor unless it is from your regular doctor that thinks you need to see him or she. Just make sure your bases are covered money wise before seeing your specialist...you will need that full insurance coverage because there will be many test but worth every penny if you can get help.Good luck and better health,

How can i get sick fast?
well i really need to get sick beacuse i cant go to school beacuse its like i hate that school and there only a few days left and i really need to not go and my mom wont let me miss school un less im really sick
Answer:
Go to Tijuana and drink the water!! nm
Tough it out.
Hahah oh boy.Take a laxative? It will make you need to go to the toilet (#2) for a good while.. and just say you must have some virus.
Drink six gallons of bleach. You'll never have to go to school again.
Suck it up for the last few days..but if your desperate..drink hot water and have your mom take your temperature..
hahaha wow umm get around sick ppl and breathe in their germs and sneezes ahahaha
look in the mirror
whats a few more days gonna do?!! just ditch! it has less consequences than making yourself ill and putting your health at risk!
the fastest and most guarranteed way to be sick is dehydration. That would be...don't drink enough water when its hot and you get sick, heat stroke and pass out. I do not recommend it. I was sick-sick, throwing up and became dehydrated last year and got an IV and medicine after a couple days. Not recommended. What you need to do is fake being sick because if you are really sick you'll be miserable. The other thing is eating bad food and getting food poisoning, but your kidneys could fail for either one of these. I do not recomend either. Just try to stick with it for a couple more days
Hey try this it works peel of the onion %26 put it in your armpit for 5 -10 minutes you will get fever if you want high fever put it for 30 minutes
You know, there are soooo many people in this world who are dying of being sick, thier only wish in to not be sick. You must have a truely sick mind if you actually want to get sick.
in the morning before school stick your finger down your throat and gag yourself till you throw up all over your bedroom
stand on your head for 10 minutes, smell 2 dog farts, and wash your hair in the toilet. Or, if your silly enough to beleive any of these suggestions, I suggest you spend more time in school.

How can I get rid on sinus drainage without medication?
Im going on a trip and im leaving in one week so it needs to be gone by then..Im gonna be camping
Answer:
Nasal irrigation is what the poster was trying to remember. Its flushing your sinuses with saline solution. The device is called a Netti Pot. Google nasal irrigation or Netti Pot. Its really helpful for people with sinus problems.
use a homemade remedy=put hot water in a bowl and a towel and your head over top of it to get the steam=this should drain out the phlegm
There is a special thing you can buy to clear your sinus passages. I saw it on Oprah a few weeks ago (don't laugh). I don't remember the name of it, but it looks like a little teapot and works awesome to flush everything out.
I take a cup and put warm water and 1-2 tsp of salt til it disolves. Then you can take either a big one of those snot sucker syringe bulb thingys for babies and force the water up your sinuses or you can just put it in your hand plug one side and sniff really hard. Do it a few times and a while later it will drain and feel so much better!! The salt helps draw out infection and also to dry it up. Seems like it would hurt but it doesn't
There is a saline spray you can buy over the counter. You can also use Oscillococcinum, buy it at any drug store or health food store, it is for the flu but is good for any cold type symtoms including allergy. I take 3 dots instead of the whole vial since this is how my homeopathic doctor told me to take it. I also take drops under the tongue for allergies. These you can get a some health food stores and online. I get mine from my homeopathic doctor.Diane
chicken noodle soup
or
really spicy foods like mexican foodthat is what I learned in health ; )
It's called a netti pot and you can buy them at health food strores. it's like a mini flower pot. all you do is mix a bit of salt since our body like natural healers (good for cuts as well, better than creams you buy in drug store..those kill off the good cells you need in your body to heal. so mix the salt into warm water. When you have it in the netti pot, you tip your head to the side, pour in one side of your nose and it will come out the other, then repeat on the other side! This works for any kind of headache above your eyes and pressure under your eyes..using the netti pot it relieves pressure since you are flushing the bad stuff out!! Good Luck!!

How can i get rid of water blisters/bubbles?
Answer:
you can choose to either let them heal on their own, or drain them yourself. If the blisters are not obtrusive it’s best to let them heal on their own as puncturing the outer layer of skin will create an open wound and increase the likelihood of infection.If your skin blister is large and/or painful, and you choose to drain the fluid - take care to leave the outer skin intact. Follow these steps carefully in order to help your blister heal faster and continue to protect it.Clean the blister with rubbing alcohol or antibacterial soap.
Sterilize a straight or safety pin by using pliers to hold it over a flame until the pin glows red and then allowing it to cool.
Using the pin, puncture a small hole in the base of the blister.
Using GENTLE pressure, drain the blister.
Apply an antibiotic ointment to the area like Bacitracin and Polymyxin B – triple antibiotic ointment. Avoid products containing neomycin as this is more likely to cause an allergic reaction.
Cover the area with an absorbent, non-stick bandage and change it daily. You may need to change it more often if it becomes wet, dirty, or loose.
In the event that the blister forms a small tear in the outer skin, treat it in the same way as if you had punctured it using the above steps. If the tear is larger, “un-roof” the blister by carefully removing the loose skin with sterilized scissors. Then cleanse the base of the blister with antibacterial soap and water, and apply antibiotic ointment and a bandage as described in steps 5 and 6 above.
Don't try to pop them. It will make it worse. The water in the blister is there because what ever caused you to get it in the first place burnt your skin in some way (wheather it be friction or just fire) and the water is there to cool it off and prevent more burning or heat. Just leave it alone for a couple days and it will disappear on it's own. If you try to get the water out it will scar and hurt really bad!
How can i get rid of under eye dark circles?
Answer:
Sleep or cold spoons from the freezer=)
a vitamin K supplement will help or a vitamin K cream under the eyes and night and plently of sleep altho in some cases amount of sleep has nothing to do with dark circles also watch your sugar intake too much sugar can cause dark circles under the eyes
buy an eye lightening cream, the good ones start at $40
it instantly will lighten your eye dark circles,
they have tiny sprinkles that make your skin shimmer
if you apply it twice daily you should see an improvement if you were born with them
there's not much you can do
unless you see your dermatologist
who'll reccommend something priceybut if you keep the skin soft and moisturized, and wrinkle free, it should not look so bad
Dark circles can treated with regular and gentle care. Cover your eyes with cotton soaked in lukewarm milk for 15 minutes everyday to remove the dark circles around your eyes or dip cotton pads into freshly extracted mint juice, flatten them and place them on closed eyelids for 10 to 15 minutes. Check out http://useinfo-darkcircles.blogspot.com/... for more info.
There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.
http://www.mydarkcirclesblog.com/2006/11...
If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water %26 stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath %26 let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K %26 Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

How can I get rid of this Viral Infection?
I have been sick for 1 week and 1 day. It started with freezing and high fever then went to sore throat and fever. and then the fever quit and the sore throat quit... Now all i have is swollen sore gums and jaw. I can't eat solid foods. and I have lost so much wait because of it. I look horrible. How can i get better faster? A big camping trip is coming up this weekend and I need to go. Anything that will help me be able to chew and swallow my food? I have tried gargling salt water and peroxide and they both don't work. any help will save me?
Answer:
Sounds like you have a sinus infection. That will cause your gums and jaw to swell up. You need to go to the doctor again to make sure it is still viral. An infection will require antibiotics. Also, you want to make sure you don't have any immune system deficiency that is causing you to not get better sooner. Other than that, here are a couple suggestions:a) Are you taking a decongestant and antihistamine? If you are able, you might try that. It will halt the production of all that ****, and help it to remain thin so you can blow your nose or cough it up.b) Take extra vitamin C if you are not doing so. You can get these in the form of a cough drop that you just suck so you won't need to chew it. Also, zinc and echinacea are helpful to healing faster. You can take airborne which provides those ingredients in a liquid form as well.c) Getting nutrition is critical to healing. Get vegetable soups with broths that you can drink. Drink an ensure if necessary. And drink tons of clear fluid (water, ginger ale, etc.) to ensure hydration.d) Be sure to get plenty of rest. Sitting here on your computer is okay for an hour here and there, but try to actually sleep when you are able. Your body does most of its healing while you are asleep.Good luck, and I hope you are feeling better in time for your camping trip.
if you have a virus, you will be sick until your body gets over it. period. there is no drug or tonic that you can take that will speed up the process. you are going to have to just hang up on the camping weekend - if you do go, and are still having ANY symptoms, you will be contagious and will make all of your fellow campers sick with the exact virus you have had. you don't "need" to go on any camping trip - what you "need" is to rest and recuperate, and not get everyone else sick with your virus. unless, of course, you are just selfish enough to only care about your own wants, and not the good health of your friends... which i don't really think you are...
It sounds like an infection. Go see a doctor. You probabbly need a prescription for penecilian or an amoxacillian. Its important to get it checked in case you've got something worse going on, you'd hate to ignore something like cancer.Get treatment, and good luck. Hope you feel better!

How can i get rid of these things?!!?
i hav three little red dots on my chin.
and they arent pimples.
they are just little red spots and i dont know what they are or how to get rid of them.
please help me!!
10 points to the suggestion that works the best!! :D :D
Answer:
I've had those. I sugggest Washing the sheets and bedding and pillowcase on your bed. The tiny bugs that bit you. They will go away in a few days.
I don't know if that's your birthmark I would suggest laser or see a dermatologist.If they are just mosquito bites they will go away If they are hickey they will go away by themselves
Are they flat or raised? Because if they are flat they may be a rash of some kind or a skin infection. If they are raised they are probably a bug bite or pimples...even though you said they aren't. If they don't go away in a couple of days I would go see a dermotologist and get a cream or something. Good luck
okay remain calm. they could be a. bug bites b. pimples(possibly) c. an allerigic recation of some sort. most likely c. first wash off your face and apply a cool compress to your chin. it will reduce the swelling then put a hot compress on it to reduce the redness. if all else fails put a little make up on them.
It sounds like the red dots are most likely busted blood vessels. You can see your dermatologist about laser treatment to have then removed, but laser treatment can be pricey and there is no guarantee that they will not come back.

How can i get rid of the the black spots on my face?
i have acne on my face and i have already started treatment to reduced my acne but i want to know if i can get back my smooth and spotless face by your help, pls help me out!
Answer:
Black spots - blackheads?Usually people think that black spots are some kind of dirt that can be washed away. But sadly blackheads are something else. Pores are partially open so sebum (oil) still gets drained to the surface. But what caused the dark color is oxygen reaction with skin pigment. So it's not dirt.Keep on with your treatment and it will go away in time, but don't expect it to happen fast.From my experiance ClearPores does a very good job with any forms of acne, specially blackheads, here is their website:
http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickth...Other than that, your skin needs time. Patience don't get stressed over it too much, stress also causes acne, so basically, the less you think about it, the better ;)Wish you all the best!
You need a long-term treatment.Acne need poly-therapy ; antibiotics because of infection, retinodies remedies, cosmetic treatment- peeling ( fluid nitrogen ), cleansing preparation, hygiene of face...
pick your blackheads out with a bobby pin it really works
the end of the bobby pin the circular shaped part. press in and usually a long white yellow string should pop out of your face and u have it!

How can I get rid of the hiccups from drinking alcohol?
Answer:
Almost everyone gets the hiccups from time to time. Hiccups typically are harmless and go away after a few minutes. Rarely, hiccups may persist for days or even weeks. When this occurs, they can interfere with eating and sleeping. In a few instances, persistent hiccups can be a sign of a serious underlying disorder.Hiccups are caused by involuntary contractions of your diaphragm 鈥?the muscle that separates your chest from your abdomen and plays an important role in breathing. This involuntary contraction causes your vocal cords to close very briefly, which produces the characteristic sound of a hiccup.Often, there may be no obvious cause for hiccups. But possible causes include:Irritation to the nerves that control normal contractions of the diaphragm 鈥?such as due to eating hot or spicy foods or drinking carbonated liquids.
Eating a large meal. Hiccups are more likely to occur when your stomach is full.
Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol
Smoking
Sudden excitement or emotional stress
There is no one proven cure for the hiccups. Different things may work at different times and for different people. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the following hiccup remedies may be effective:Holding your breath
Slowly drinking a cold glass of water
Breathing into a paper bag
Eating a spoonful of sugar
Having someone startle you
Gently massaging the back of the roof of your mouth with a cotton swab for a minute or so
If your hiccups last longer than 48 hours, consult your doctor. In some cases of prolonged hiccups, prescription medications may help.
They will probably stop soon. Good idea to quit drinking and go to bed. That usually only happens when you've had enough.
by drinking WATER in one HUGE gulp. it forces w/e is stuck in ur thought to open and releases w/e is stuck
EAT!...no water..just EAT!
stop drinking

How can I get rid of the black dots on my legs?
Answer:
stop shaving. Then they'll just be black hairs
get a better razor
Using the same color as the dots, fill in all of the lighter areas to make urself uniform. Then, no contrast.
A determologist can help you with the dark spots or ask your regular doctor for assistance cause I cannot see the spots to tell you what else to do.
if they r bruises u cant,and i dont really think i know wat that is so i dont think i can help.SORRY!!!!!
Wash em
They sell razors that'll remove the hair right from the root. You could also have your legs waxed.
umm get a new razor.
How can i get rid of the acne on my back, shoulders, and chest FAST!!!?
Answer:
Use a mild cleanser, alot of 2.5% benzoyl peroxide and a good moisturizer.A gentle face wash will help prepare your skin for benzoyl peroxide. Removing surface oils allows the benzoyl peroxide to penetrate more easily. Washing very gently helps avoid irritation. While scientists and doctors do not know exactly what causes acne, we do know that irritation alone can make it worse. Benzoyl peroxide oxygenates skin. Acne bacteria cannot live in oxygenated environments. Benzoyl peroxide is also a mild drying and peeling agent which is thought to help keep pores from clogging. On the Regimen you'll be using 2.5% benzoyl peroxide because clinical studies have shown it is just as effective as 5% and 10% but much less irritating. Remember, irritation alone can aggravate acne. I found that using lots of 2.5% benzoyl peroxide is incredibly effective. Why apply so much? Nobody knows for sure why this works so amazingly well but myself and thousands of others have had great success using this method. My theory is that applying more simply allows it to penetrate more deeply into the skin. Because you'll be using lots of 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, your skin will most likely be dry and a little flaky. Applying a good moisturizer will help keep your skin in balance and allow you to go out into public with non-flaky, normal looking skin.
try using body wash meant for that purpose. I know for a fact that neutrogina makes a body wash that is for body acne, my sister used to used it and it worked pretty good for her, I'm sure that other brands like say Clearasil or Noxzema make a body wash as well. The trick is to let the soap suds sit on your skin for a bit so the benzoyl treatment can work. Also try to find a aftercare lotion you can apply! I'm sure whatever brand wash you buy will have a aftercare lotion to use. Also getting some sun can help with the acne, my brothers always clears up faster if he Gets some sun shine on his skin!
Old wives tale known to work for some people.
Buy 14 small packages of bakers yeast. Take half of a package in the morning half at night in a medium size glass of warm water. Crush the yeast in the glass very carefully.
Should start to see results at about the 12/13 day. Seeing results continue on for the month and then stop for awhile.

How can I get rid of tan skin?
I don't know why but I seem to tan easily. I have never burned before. If I stayed out in the sun too long, all I get is more tan skin. Is there some way to get rid of the tan? I like white soft skin like my friends.
Answer:
I'm like you, but I enjoy being tan all the time. However, if you don't, just wear sunscreen, at least SPF 30. And to get rid of a tan faster, use a bath poufe and exfoliate so your skin flakes off faster.
the answer is do not go out in the sun
ask michael jackson
GET RID OF IT?!!
Haha...I'm the one who'd trying to get one!! LOL
ha, tan skin looks good. But just dont go in the sun?

How can i get rid of stretchmarks or make them less visible?
Answer:
TriLastin-SR is proven to work on all skin types and comes with a 60 day money back guarantee. Stretch marks can be reduced significantly with the treatment to a point where they are no longer visible.
loose the baby belly as soon as possible after the birth of course good luck and enjoy your new little bundle of fun
Tan. I've done everything to get rid of them and so has my son; he got fattish when he was 10 years old but still has the stretch marks. Don't waste your money on any creams. They are a waste of time.
I've heard the cocoa butter lotion or cream can lesson stretch marks, but I don't think anything will permanently get rid of them. Consult your dermatologist as well.
cocoa butter lotion has helped me in the past with stretch marks
If you have stretch marks on your tummy there is not a thing, besides a tummy tuck to rid yourself of that skin altogether, that will make the stretch marks disappear.I am in my 50's and have had stretch marks since I was a late teen. The doctor's tell me that your skin stretches from the inside out. It is sort of like a tear. No cream could possibly make that disppear. I have tried the cocoa butter and all the other tricks. It's a lost cause.So...unless you want them surgically removed...there is no way, I know of, to rid yourself of these unwanted marks.
dont worry about them, i pointed mine out to my boyfriend the other day and said they were barely noticeable and i was still beutifull to him it is highly likely your other half will think the same of you ! %26lt;3
best thing i know of to reduce the appearance of stretchmarks is bio oil, also good for scars too. it costs(i think) 拢8.95 from all good pharmacies
iv heard that Bio-Oil, is good for stretch marks and scars,its about nine pounds from chemist shop, but it doesn't get rid of them, i don't think there is anything that can really get rid of stretch marks,
How can i get rid of spots on my laps?
I have had dark spots on my laps for long time now. i tried using soaps to get rid of them but they are still there and because of this i can't were a mini skirt or even a bikini.Please i need someone to hint me on what to do.
Answer:
That could be some kind of blackheads or partially clogged pores. Those are stable structures that can be there for years. Usually people think this is some kind of dirt in pores and can be washed away but let me tell you exactly what it is...Pores are partially open so they don't get completely clogged to cause acne. But why it gets dark? Because skin pigment reacts with oxygen and the skin directly in the pores and around gets dark and leaves dark spots...The perfect solution for this is ClearPores, you can find their website here: http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickth...You can order directly from the website. It will help but it won't happen just over night, give it some time. But I don't think it would be a problem if you had it for years and give it a few weeks now to go away...If you chose to try it, be sure to order BODY system not facial.Hope this helped...

How can i get rid of scars or at least enlighten it?
i kinda have a huge scar thats forming i think and i wanna try to get rid of it...any suggestions? :)
Answer:
Try rubbing pure Vitamin E on your scars. I have a lot of scars on my legs and they heal so slowly so I just get put the gel tab Vitamin E and use a pin to open the gel tab and then squirt the vitamin E wherever the scars are and rub it reall y good into my skin. Be warned though: Vitamin E feels really sticky but the feling goes away after about 15 minutes. If you do this every day you should see some results in about 2 weeks.
I have tried a lot of other products that promise to do away with scars or bruises like Vitamin K products but tthey don't work for me. Also Coco Butter is pretty good for getting rid of scars but I find that tthe Vitamin E works the best.
Good luck :D

How can i get rid of Rosacea and Keratosis Pilaris?
i have rosy cheeks with little rough bumps.i also have little bumps on my upper legs upper arms and butt.some look like pimples and scar.im pretty sure these are the symptoms.what now??
Answer:
oh, man, that's what it's called. I think I have that too. I use hydrocortizone, you can get it at any drug store. It helps. Maybe it's the same thing. Hope I helped.
I think lotions with lactic acid are supposed to help the KP, or that alpha-hydroxy stuff.
see a dermatologist and he will give you metro cream,%26 tetracycline and it will lessen in time
My son has keratosis very bad. I took him to a dermatologist - he has to use Dove unscented, Unscented detergent in the wash, Cetaphil cream for his skin along with a prescription cream. Keratosis is actually extremely dry skin - a precursor to eczema... you probably do not have rosacea on your face it's keratosis pilaris - go to a dermatologist.
Using the products above has helped his skin tremendously.
p.s. Cetaphil cream is expensive - but it is over the counter...

How can I get rid of poison ivy?
Ok, I have poison ivy on my arms, face, and neck. I would like to know if there is a cheap, and quick way to get rid of it.
Answer:
First, wash the area as best you can with the strongest soap you can find (body acne soap is perfect) Second, Put a cool compress on the irritated area to relieve as much burning as possible. Then, take a bath with baking soda (5 c.) in the cool water, but no soap hat might irritate your skin. After the bath, make a paste of Epsom salts or baking soda and water and apply it to the sores. Buy a lotion that contains zinc acetate, alcohol, or calamine, aand apply before bed to harden the scabs a nd speed healing. Leave the rash open to the air, so the skin can breathe and renew itself. Do NOT scratch, or apply a topical pain killer. These will spread the rash, and may even cause a new rash. Tylenol, or Ib Profrin can be taken every 4-6 hours with food as needed.
What ever you do-Don't scratch it...it will make it spread even more. You can get something over the counter at the drugstore.
you're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
put unscented deodorant on it. this will dry it up. by all means though, dont scratch it. wash all of your clothes and sheets in hot water and switch towels after each shower.
Hydrocortisone cream (also sold as Cortaid) will usually work, so will Benadryl cream ...I think it's also available in a spray and a clear gel. I've heard that you can moisten a cotton ball with peroxide and wipe (carefully) on the spots and that will help dry them up. Any of these will take a few days (maybe 3 or 4), but they should help. You might check at www.webmd.com for other suggestions. Just type "poison ivy" in the search box.
ok i have poisen ivy a lot...whatever u do DON'T TOUCH IT!! if u do touch it then touch another part of ur body it will spread 2 that part, anyway.. get some benadrill anti itch crap and put it on that..it feels cold but dont rub it in with ur hand use a cotton ball or cue tip it. keep doin that every day and it will go away in like 2-3 days! good luck!! :)

How can i get rid of my pimples?
Answer:
We have found that acne in general responds well to a home remedy taught to me by a friend from Guatemala:
At night before bed, pour about a Tbsp of sugar into the palm of your hand and add just enough lemon juice to make a paste. Massage the paste in a circular motion (not too hard, you don't want to abrade the skin!) over the affected areas to slightly exfoliate. Then, let the paste sit for about 30 seconds, rinse off and pat dry. Do this each night. For my son's very oily and football/baseball-sweat aggravated acne we switch the sugar to salt.
I can honestly tell you that he notices improvement the very first morning when he does this.
Hope this helps! At least it's not expensive to try : )
Erythromycin
ProActive!! It really works wonders. Good Luck
I know what your going through as I get breakouts often. I tried everything you could order online and over the counter. Nothing worked. Since my face was getting to be terrible I went to a dermatologist. She gave me two things and they were miracles! The first I use in the morning and it is called Duac. The second thing I use at night is called Diffrin. This stuff is amazing. Now, if your acne is not that severe yet, a great thing to use is clearasil ultra face wash/scrub. If it is a little worse, try Proactiv. Be careful though, your skin can get used to Proactiv and later on ignore it. Remember wash your face daily with hot water. It opens up the pores so you can clean them out which helps get rid of pimples. Good luck!
Well if i were u i would start washin my face everyday with a face cleaner then i would try not to touch my hands on my face and keep my hair pulled back
i had that problem. what i did was wash my face with warm soap and water, then wash off the soap with cool water. and it does help alot to drink alot more water. washer cleans your insides out. your body is made up of alot of water. its telling you to drink more water aswell. i have been their
If you have only a few pimples - you should treat them individually and not use harsh products on your entire face (as that can lead to drying and irritation, which can make your skin worse over time)If the problem is wide spread - I would suggest consulting a dermatologist. Often, acne isnt caused by improper face cleansing - but by hormonal problems, stress, or vitamin deficiencies.Here is an article on acne treatments that might help:http://www.associatedcontent.com/article...

How can i get rid of my acne?
I wash my face regularly, get a good night sleep...
Answer:
sometimes our skin harbors bacteria that is acne prone. it's a good idea to use an antibacterial wash with a benzoil peroxide cream that you can put on after you wash and dry your face.if that isn't enough there are some low dose antibiotics that work very well and need to be taken only once or twice per day. that, in conjunction with the good face washing would clear you up.
of course you would need to see a doctor for the prescription.it isn't your washing habits and probably isn't any thing you do to contribute to it...just luck. (smile)
Mhmmm.. sounds like you're doing everything perfectly! Try using over the counter products. I used Proactive, it was a waste of my money. But now I use avenno, which is sooo good for my skin. now problems whatsoever. but look around and see what worsk best for you. Also, have you tired working out? E.g running etc.. that may help too..
I used to have really bad acne and would use every acne treatment around. Then I started washing 2x a day with cetaphil facial cleanser for normal to oily skin and nothing else. I totally cleared up and now if i get blemishes i just spot treat with oxy vanishing (i think that's what its called) it has a large % of benzoil peroxide. Try it! I've used Proactive, seen the dermatologist who put me on antibiotics, expensive dermalogica products, regular facials, EVERYTHING!! The cetaphyl works the best!! It's so gentle and cheap!! Also, drinks lots and lots of water!
avoid sweetes and fatty foods
try salycylic acid. visit your dermatologist.
wash your face with st ives every morning and night. after every wash put hydrocortisone cream on four face. results may not happen as soon as you want them to, matter what you decide to use. everyone is different.
Acne and pimples is one of the most distressing and depressing problems faced mostly by youngsters. Soak cotton wool in mint juice, and apply every day. Mix cinnamon powder with lime juice to make a fine paste, Apply on pimples. Check out http://useinfo-acne.blogspot.com/... for more useful info.
I feel your pain. I suffered from acne for a long time. First wash your face with a mild cleanser containing salicylic acid. Dry your face with a fresh towel. You should change your towel often. In the morning apply a light moisturizer, one for acne prone skin. Sounds crazy, but your skin needs moisture because acne products dry it out. Onr to try is LA Roche Posay. Find it on the interent. Don not wash your face again until nighttime. Washing more than twice per day aggravates the condition. Never use harsh abrasive cleansers on your face. They will irritate your skin. At night after washing apply a thin layer of persa gel 10. You can buy this in the drugstore over the counter. This should help you. However if your acne is severe I recommend going to the doctor.

How can I get rid of mild face acne and back acne??
I am 15 years old and I have mild face acne and horrible back acne. Plus, I have to go swimming tomorrow for everyone to see my back acne..great....I have tried alot of products and have not noticed too much results. I don't eat junk food or anything.My back acne is alittle more serious. It is mostly along my shoulders and I am embarresed to go swimming, which is going to be tomorrow!Please anything that i can try doing will be greatly. If you could give me a straight up answer, not any fake crap.Thanks
Answer:
Try Loreal Acne Response,it's a three step process and it is about $25 in drug stores, it's worth a try.I have had very good results with it.For the body acne, make sure you shower and wash with dove sensitive skin bar every day on the affected area, then use pure tea tree oil ($6. in walmart in vitamin section) on it, better to do it at night since it is a strong smell. For daytime, you can use the acne medication from the loreal treatment on your back and shoulders too.Take your vitamins and drink PLENTY of water!! Ten cups of filtered or spring water daily, get plenty of sunshine and exercise and try to maintain a positive attitude.Good luck.
i have the exact same problem. i don't have anything 4 the back problem... but all the supposively awesome products never worked on me. so i just tried target generic brand cleanser, and it worked! so just try target brand... it worked 4 me!!
There are a couple of ways you can get rid of the acne on your face, First theres always Proactive it works wonders and if anyone would you could get somone to rub it on your back.
But the things that you could use for your face would be Apricot Scrub (Which is way Cheaper then Proactive) I would get the Blemish Fighting or the Medicated Scrub. But if you have sensitve skin Use JOHNSONS BABY SHAMPOO my doctor told me that it is mild and clears it up little by little.
If you want something that would work fast use something like Clearsil Ultra put it on before bed and they will shrink fast make sure that you are not wearing the same Bra over and over or even wearing it overnight cause the dirt and oil rubs on your back when you wear it over and over again and that causes pimple (my younger sister had this problem to) But like alot of people use there is Toothpaste and If you have a Huge Pimple Use Visine for red eyes it gets the red out of the pimple just like eyes
Hope i helped
If you go to your doctor or dermatologist and ask about Duac. It's an awesome product and I'll stand by it. You're supposed to use it for spot treatment, but I prefer to use it as a face cream so that it will prevent breakouts. Although this product is AWESOME, one of the warnings is to stay out of the sun. I ignored that once and turned very red from sunburn, but I feel that a little sunburn is worth it for clear skin.About Koolaid's answer above mine: DO NOT USE TOOTHPASTE! it cloggs your poors even more. just because it stings, doesn't mean it works!

But the things that you could use for your face would be Apricot Scrub (Which is way Cheaper then Proactive) I would get the Blemish Fighting or the Medicated Scrub. But if you have sensitve skin Use JOHNSONS BABY SHAMPOO my doctor told me that it is mild and clears it up little by little.
If you want something that would work fast use something like Clearsil Ultra put it on before bed and they will shrink fast make sure that you are not wearing the same Bra over and over or even wearing it overnight cause the dirt and oil rubs on your back when you wear it over and over again and that causes pimple (my younger sister had this problem to) But like alot of people use there is Toothpaste and If you have a Huge Pimple Use Visine for red eyes it gets the red out of the pimple just like eyes
Hope i helped
If you go to your doctor or dermatologist and ask about Duac. It's an awesome product and I'll stand by it. You're supposed to use it for spot treatment, but I prefer to use it as a face cream so that it will prevent breakouts. Although this product is AWESOME, one of the warnings is to stay out of the sun. I ignored that once and turned very red from sunburn, but I feel that a little sunburn is worth it for clear skin.About Koolaid's answer above mine: DO NOT USE TOOTHPASTE! it cloggs your poors even more. just because it stings, doesn't mean it works!
How can I get rid of marks on my face after squeezing my spots?
Unfortunately, i've got a habit of squeezing spots on my face, which i know i should stop, but somehow i can't. I have some marks now and i'm wondering if there is a way of getting rid of them?
Answer:
Skin lightening cream (nothing dangerous)apply it to the spotsIn future you should run your cotton facecloth under hot water and use it as a compress against your skin (it hurts) until the head comes through.

How can i get rid of hair bumps om my legs and thighs?

How can I get rid of dark elbows and knees?
I have had a skin condition for years. I wasn't born with it, but around the age of 12 I developed dark, thick skin on my elbows and knees. I've been to numerous dermatologists. One of them said that I have psoriosis. My current dermatologist say that it isn't likely. I know most African Americans have darker knees and elbows. But I've never seen anyone else with my skin condition. I'm currently using a salicylc acid treatment. It is an ingredient found in corn removers. Can anyone reccommend a good dermatolodist? I live in NYC, but am willing to travel to fix my problem.
Answer:
Hi there. The only thing I can think of is make sure you don't have a lot of dead skin build up in those areas and use lots of moisturizers to keep your skin at it's best. I'd probably pick a more expensive, non-scented brand of moisturizer if you think you have a skin condition also. Good luck to you.
bleach
just keep using moisturizing cream eventually it will get better

How can i get rid of dark circles?
i think they are heriditary..is there any way to permanently get rid of heriditary dark circles??
Answer:
There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.
http://www.mydarkcirclesblog.com/2006/11...
If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water %26 stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath %26 let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K %26 Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

I don't think you can get rid of this condition. Many people with allergies have this problem. The skin under your eyes is thin and the blood pool is showing through. You can consult a dermatologist to make sure. Try dermablend cosmetics to mask them.

How can I get rid of Blackheads & Large pores Thanks!?
Answer:
It tells you everything herehttp://www.getridofthings.com/getridofbl...You cannot remove pores.You can use an exfoliator to clean your pores and remove dead skin. This will help your skin to breathe.Also, drink lots of water, 1-2L per day and that will make a big difference.
St. Ives Apricot Scrub. Awesome stuff! Rinse your face with cold water.
Find a pure %26 natural face wash - I suggest Arbonne, Berts Bee or Aveeno.Before washing your face take a clean hot compress to face. Heat in micro double warmth. repeat.
Clean face. Pat dry add a toner (witch hazel)
and an acne cream.Repeat at night. Twice a week use an exfoliant
and once a week a deep cleaning pore mask
both done on a clean face.
Squeeze 'em or get those thingies where it rips them out or face scrubs but they take longer
I will squeeze the blackheads for you, I love em. Splat and its gone.
i listed this awhile back, and i got a bunch of answers but nothing really worked.
I started getting Microdermibrasions at American Laser Center and that actually does work.
its like 90 bucks every 2 weeks, but my skin has never been clearer.
exfoliate cleanse and steam
go to sauna. it very good all round.
wash your face frequently with cold water and use a facial wash that is mild and attuned to your skin type.
I have acne and Im 32. My Dr put me on antibiotics years ago which was effective, but I came off them when I learnt about MRSA. There is the pill, but be careful as they have side effects such as depression. This is onbly as a last resort if nothing works over the counter. I also use Panoxyl aqua gel, which is behind th counter, but is very harsh on the skin, but effective.
Need to wash in the morning and at night to keep the pores clean use a mild daily scrub like st Ives apricot scrub in the morning to clear the pores and cleasing facial wash at night to keep oil production at bay. Buy a microdermabrasion kit available in chemist and use once a week.
How can i get rid of black heads with out the strips??
Answer:
http://www.getridofthings.com/getridofbl...
http://dermatology.about.com/cs/acnecome...Blackheads Treatment 1. Hormonal treatments, including oral contraceptives, have long been recognized by dermatologists to be an effective treatment option for which those have blackheads.
2. Cleanse the face thoroughly with a good cleanser meant for oily skin such as a salicylic acid cleanser.
3. Drugs can also be used to cure blackhead. Some medicines which can be used are as adapalene.
4. Sunshine or ultra-violet light encourages skin peeling, and so helps to clear blocked pores. So sunbathing or use of sun-beds in moderation can be helpful.
5. Keep your hair away from your face. Greasy hair and skin go together, and hair can spread infection.
6. Surgery is also an option in treatment of blackhead removal. The surgery helps in making the scar so thin that it is not clearly visible. Also infection is not caused if you cures blackhead with surgery.Home Remedies For AcneHome remedies

Use Mint Julep Masque by Queen Helene. It took most of my blackheads out, but left a few, but it really works! You can find it at most drugstores. I found mine at Walgreens :) Good Luck :)
blackheads are oxodized sebum. to get rid of them...you really just need to exfoliate regularly and use a salicylic acid cream or gel 2.5%. and to prevent them, keep your hands away from your face, don't sqeeze, because this opens up your pores even more to let more of the icky sebum in there, and keep your hair clean and out of your face. try changing pillowcases often also...good luck!
Cleanse your face with unboiled milk, gently rub a coarse cloth dipped in milk to remove the blackheads. Steam your face with herbs like lavender, lemon peel and mint leaves added to the water and let the skin soak up its goodness.

How can I get rid of acne scaring on my back?
Answer:
Most people here seem to think you are referring to the pimples, but I think you mean pitted scars. Other than seeing
a dermatologist and inquiring about any possible cosmetic procedure (in general, the back is more difficult to treat due to the thickness of the skin, and may not be an option) the only thing you can do is wait for time to soften them. A series of microdermabrasions may be of some benefit.
Use some Stridex wipes on them daily. Good Luck! Vote Me Best Answer!
Try using strech mark lotions. In theroy, strech marks are scars. It worked for the scars on my arms. If you can't get that then try coco butter lotions.
I have your problem and am currently doing what my dermatologist told me: I have to exfoliate my back using this long cloth that has a smooth side and a rough side. Do smooth-rough-smooth combinations. Put acne medicine on it though. You may purchase a cloth like this or something similar at a spa, bath%26body works, online, ross, target, etc. This procedure will remove dead skin cells. I cant tell you what your outcome will be but i can tell you it feels great! Keep in mind that sweat and natural body oils collect and cause irritation on your back, so take a shower right after you do anything that causes sweat. Exfoliate before bed and have someone rub some kind of a acne blemish remover. Look for this at your local drugstore. I use a spray from "acne complex"(search this) that is about 14 bucks. Good luck with this and always exfoliate, its the path to healthy skin!

How can i get rid of acne fast or make it better in a couple of days?
Answer:
ask your doctor to prescribe you minocyline,it is a drug that helps clear acne(it is an antibiotic which kills the bacteria that causes acne)
try makeup. lots of makeup. creams don't work. if you do have a problem then i use oxy 4 hour emergency zit blitzer but i just have bad skin with a few spots. it may be different for acne but it's worth a try. other things that claim to get rid of spots also work but i find Oxy best. it comes in little tubes about 2 inches long. small but powerful stuff
get some stuff to treat your acne such as proactive but i hear other stuff works great too. i personally use neutrogena products. some other tips are to work out, sweat, go to the pool, and expose your skin to sun. whatever you do, don't pop it thought. wash your skin morning and evening only, washing it more is actually bad for your skin and acne. the chlorine in the pool seems to have a positive effect on my acne as does the sun and sweating hard rly cleans out those pores. exercise is good for hormones which are what cause acne in the first place. good lucknote: the only factor beyond your control is time
The juice of basil or tulsi leaves heals the skin and acne scars. More home remedies available at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/acne.html...
How can i get rid of a tickleing cough i have had for a few days?
have had constant hacking cough which isnt a cold
Answer:
This is the type that tickles and keeps you awake as you are trying to fall asleep?If it is the result of a cold that is long gone, it is probably bronchial spasms caused by damage left by the cold. Ask your nurse or doctor for the inhaler that will resolve it. Most likely, they will give you something like albuterol or Qvar. I had great success with Qvar...it cleared up the tickling cough in about a week.In the meantime, if you are having problems falling asleep due to this cough, try sleeping with a t-shirt draped across your neck at night. Somehow, this prevents your throat from going dry...and dryness seems to trigger these tickling coughs. It might even help speed up the healing.
drink honey. I don't know, thats what my grandpa always does. :)
I have the same thing and my eyes water when it happens. It's post-nasal drip. I also have a itching in my ear from time to time. The doctor told me it's from allergies. I take over the over the counter allergy medicine. I use the store brand - non drowsy formula. It works better than the prescription for me.Oh yes, I also keep a bottle of water with me where ever I go and lots of those hard starlight peppermints handy for when the throat gets dry. Someone told me that Cinnamon gum works for them.
Here are a few simple home remedies that will help to overcome cough. Have honey in a hot drink before bed time.To relieve fits of coughing due to dryness in the throat, suck a few pepper corns. Check out http://useinfo6.blogspot.com/ for more remedies and information.

How can I get rid of a cystic zit that's been on my chin forever?HELP?
Answer:
It maybe a cyst and not a zit. If it is long standing surgical excision will remove it permanently. I would have a plastic surgeon do it if you really want it gone. It will result in a scar but a skilled surgeon can give you a minimal scar.Some cysts respond to injection with steroids, either a dermatologist or plastic surgeon could do this.
Put warm moist cloth on it. BUT do NOT squeeze it before it is ready...all that will do is make it worse.
Try what my dermatologist had me do when I was a teen...wash your face with tiny bit of Head and Shoulders shampoo on a wash cloth.
good luck
The best way is to see a dermatologist, who might do one or all of the following: give you a topical antibiotic to apply, inject a local antibiotic, inject a steroid like cortisone, give you light therapy, lance the cyst. Any of those things are the fastest way to healing it.
a razor will take it right off
I have the same problem that I'm trying to rid of. A few things that helped some were white vinegar mixed with water and applied. Boiled Eclipta and liquid applied - this worked the best I believe. Olay daily regenerating serum has been a help with to especial from scars from past problems.Diane
How can i get rid of a cold sore FAST!!!?
i need home remidies[sp] and things that arent expensive or that i have to buy please help!
Answer:
Try nail polish remover, it really works, I asked a similar question about that on here, and I just had to be sure to hold my breath while I dapped some on with a cotton ball, it burnt a little, but in two days it was gone.Good luck!
Ozonated Olive Oil works for me. The best price I've found is at www.ozonatedoliveoilandmore.co... A 1 oz jar is only $5.99 plus shipping. Some sites sell it for as much as $30.
try alum. Apply it directly to the cold sore. Doesn't taste the greatest but works wonders to ease the pain and help them disappear sooner.

How can i get really sick for a long time?
I was really sick 4 like 2 weeks and i lost nearly 15 pounds. Does anyone know how i could get sick enough to lose another 25? I've been eating a lot of undercooked pork and i haven't washed my hands in 2 days but i still feel fine. can someone help me?
Answer:
break a thermometer and drain it into your tonue and eat raw tunawait crush five thermometers into a pound of tuna
That's an awful idea. So not healthy.
Drinking liquid from the Thermometer will KILL YOU!!
Wow, that's the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life.Not washing your hands for 2 days wont make you sick, but food contamination probably will. The last time I got sick was when I accidentally mixed my anxiety meds with beer, damn that sucked.
i think you need to sit down and really think hard about why you would want to do this to your self. you could die from something like this. if losing weight is that important to you, you should look into diet and exersize. i hear a diabetic diet can make you lose weight fast. my aunt lost 30 lbs. in a month and a half.
Take a flight with a trial lawyer criss-crossing Europe then across the Atlantic to Canada and into New York. Rumor is they don't listen to the CDC when carrying tuberculosis on the plane. That should do it ;-)

How can I get myself to stop skin picking?
It's a habit I've had for several years now. I am able to stop for a few days at a time but that's it. Could this be a form of OCD?
Answer:
odds are you do it without noticing it. it may be a form of OCD, or just a nervous habit. if you're "skin-picking" with your teeth, you may just be orally fixated and chewing gum or hard candy may help. if you're using your fingers, some options could be covering the area that you pick at with athletic/sports tape to keep you from getting at it. or putting some tape on your finger tips so that you can't feel yourself picking at it or at least reduce the dexterity necessary to effectively pick at it. if you just need something to do with your hands, get a rubber band or paperclip and see how many times you can wrap it around your finger before it breaks. that will give you something else to do. it may become a habit, but it'll be more of an inconvenience than a self-destructive behavior.
I used to pick too and sometimes still do, but my mom used to put vinegar or hot sauce on my fingers, believe me that will stop you (lol). It's a nervous habit-I know it is bothersome, try a rubberband around the wrist and snap it when u get the urge to pick.
That is definitely a symptom.. I have OCD myself and used to skin pick quite a bit. I still do on occasion but not very much. I would talk to a psychiatrist about it and find out for sure if that is what it is. It sounds like it though. Do you do anything else? Like do you have to do things a certain way or have things perfect? Do you find yourself doing any other things over and over again? The only thing I can really suggest is to get tested and find out if it really is OCD, which more than likely it is and then find a good psychiatrist that can prescribe medication for you... I take Luvox for my OCD... Hope that helps....

How can i get my skin pale?
im light complected but i want to be pale WITHOUT make up, dont say to stay away from the sun because i've been staying away from the sun for 2 years and nothing...i dont trust sunblock so please dont say to use that.
Answer:
you can use lemon juice to bleach your skin...I am fairly light-skinned too, and while I used to tan very nicely, I have stayed out of the sun for the past 3 years now and used sunblock when I did go out and it works fine. (I've never used the juice personally btw)
I have to stay pale because of my modeling, so I can tell you it does work. I've actually had clients tease me and call me "snow white" and "casper" before...
=]
they have some kind of skin bleach stuff out there
wear 55 spf sunscreen, or higher if you haven't already tried. i wouldn't know how to, cause i'm naturally pale, sorry.

How can i get my mom to stop smoking??
Answer:
Sorry, but you can't. Smoking is an addiction. Your mother has to want to stop. It's not something anyone can get someone else to do. If she's not ready to quit, nagging or throwing away her cigarettes will just make her angry and less likely to quit.
tell her your gonna smoke unless she stops
Hide the cigs
Tell her how second hand smoking affects you, and don't nag becuse that will just make her snap at you. Good luck :) and whenever you find cigarettes in the house throw them away :)
You can't. That's her decision.
take all her cigarettes and throw them away and get some classes for her. in ohio, we have a smoking helpline(free) to help those who want to quit
DONT NAG! My friend's mother was a smoker and from her meetings with counsulers and herself she said that nagging would make her want to continue to smoke because it would relieve the stress and annoyance. Have somebody else to ask your mom to quit smoking, somebody that isn't a family or close friend. They are more likely to listen to somebody they don't know. Help her in the process. Encourage her, go through the motions regardless if you are a smoker or not.Also tell her to drink water or do something else when she has the urge to smoke. Make sure its a healthy and good habit she replaces with smoking!Good luck and god bless!!
I am one of those moms and I smoke more the minute I am told to stop! Why I must be crazy! You betcha! I do know that when I am alone and not troubled with children and their worries I smoke by far less! You might take her more places where smoking is not likely to occur, keeping busy socially would be plus and for sure the movie theatre for 2 or 3 shows might help a smoker quit! Try dancing, etc.Also her doctor can order Welbutin or Zyban I think, ask her doctor he or she will know the right medicine to aid in quitting. In short everyday is new beginning and everyday she is quitting so be kind and say nothing except thank you mom for trying so hard, keep up the good work!
HELLO,SADLY, ONLY YOUR MOTHER CAN CHOOSE TO QUIT. THIS IS A VERY PERSONAL DECISION. IN REALITY ONLY IGNORANT PEOPLE CHOOSE TO COMMIT LEGAL SELF- EUTHANASIA BY SMOKING.
There is no way you will convince her to just stop smoking.. She does have to choose or want to stop for her health.. However, it is a difficult addiction to give up... The only suggestion I can make is that. You and your mother will make a new year's resolution or a pact that each of you will give up something that is not healthy. Say you will stop drinking sodas at home and she can't smoke at home.. Then wean yourselves off the bad habits all together. BUT make sure you replace that behavior with something else... Maybe have icecream or a special dessert or drink at the end of each night. Make it so you both are doing something together.
Work together!My partner and I made a NEW Year's resolution that I won't drink sodas at home and she won't drink alcohol during the week.. We compromised.
It may be true that no one can stop you from smoking, and that you have to make up your own mind, well let me tell you this, and this may help, if you tell it to your mother, I always told me children when they were growing up about things that bad for your health, and i would never want them do anything that would hurt their health. My three children came to me one day, they had been asking me to stop smoking, they showed me a xray of some lungs that was full with cancer,and how black the lung were. They told me this is how your lungs are going to look and if you get cancer, how do you think we will feel just waiting on you to die, mom we love you and you are all we have, yes!! we have aunts and uncles friends, but we also have that all in you, so if these people would die, and leaves us we would still have all of them within you, but if you die, our whole world will just crash, mom we love you, and you are doing just what you ask us not to do, you are killing yourself, this was enough to help convince me to stop, and to think of my children and to know that i was beening selfish and i do love my children, and want to spend longevity with them, It has been 6 year since i stop smoking and i feel better my skin is much pretty and clear, and i have only gaind 5 pound within 6 years tell your mother if she really value her life and love you, she will stop before it's to late. Hope this help.
Ask her if she wants to see her grandkids graduate from High School ?She has to have a reason to quit, no one can force the situ
You cant make her stop she has to want to stop but you can let her know of your concerns for her health and if she smokes in the house your health to.Every time she lights up ask her to take it out side please.Also if she does express a desire to quit tell her about the new quit smoking drug Chantix.I take it and I am having very good success with it.
