This is one of my many videos of Tourette Syndrome. Please watch it before you answer the question, thanks.

Answer:
Education is the key to this disorder. Once we learn about Tourettes and also learn what it is NOT, the mystery disappears and the stigma will follow. Great video Jamie Grace! Blessings to you. Keep up the good work.People can learn more here:http://www.tsa-usa.org
congratulations to you on taking a stand for something that you believe in.
My answer is that I think people always mock the things that they don't understand. It's a way of hiding their fear. People mock the fat, the thin, the black, the white, the clever, the stupid, etc etc.
Why don't you take that and make it positive, as in, the more tourettes is seen in the media, the more people will be motivated to learn about it, and the fear will go away, and therefore the mockery...
good luck to you.
well, the video says it all, people are screwed up. usually making fun of others makes people feel better about themselves. and those people have issues.
People make fun of things they do not want to or try to understand. I have two children who are handicapped and they get made fun of all the time and I tell them to ignore it because people do not take the time to try to understand the handicap.
I suffer Tourette's %26 it's not easy. People think I fake it on purpose, just to excuse myself from getting in trouble, but I really can't help it.
because there is so many people out there that do not understand what it is.

Why do you not get cancer of the heart....?
..or at least, I've never heard of it. Does anyone know?
Answer:
think u can!!got this from googleYes. However, heart cancer is extremely rare. The vast majority of heart tumors are noncancerous (benign). A 20-year review of 12,487 consecutive autopsies in Hong Kong identified only seven cases of cardiac tumor 鈥?an incidence of less than 0.1 percent 鈥?most of which were benign. Benign tumors of the heart include myxomas, fibromas, rhabdomyomas and hamartomas. Cancerous (malignant) tumors of the heart are most often sarcomas. Occasionally, cancer can spread to the heart, such as from lymphomas that originate in the structures of the chest near the heart. Other cancers that can spread to the heart include melanomas and sarcomas. Treatment of heart tumors is surgical removal.Cancer can affect the heart in other ways, such as causing damage to the heart valves (marantic endocarditis) or stiffening of the heart muscle (cardiac fibrosis). Cancer treatments can also affect the heart. Certain chemotherapy drugs 鈥?such as anthracyclines, high-dose cytoxan, 5-FU, taxanes, herceptin and IL-2 鈥?can damage the heart. Radiation therapy directed at or near the heart can cause damage to the heart muscle and increase the risk of coronary artery disease later in life.
Probably because the heart is just muscle, and cancer grows on organs or tissues usually. Just a guess!
the heart takes enuff abuse with love lol
i guess its a special organ .
i heard a researcher saying that cancer is not a disease, dont chuck this out.
read it fully.
anyways what happens is that once there is a trauma to a region of the body the body requests the repair of that part.but cancer happens when the brain doesnt send out the signal to stop once when fully repaired.as you can see lung cancer is higher among smokers as smoke damages the lungs.. so a repair intiative happens that fails..
similarly ulcers, in mouth stomach.. and everyother region.where as the heart unlike the head is very much protected by the ribs and its pretty safe from most trauma other than extended use and fat buildup...
so there is no need to repair what aint damaged.
so thats the reason that cancer doesnt occour in heart. although it seems there are occourances but less than a handful of them
The heart can get cancer, but it is extremely rare. Angiosarcoma (also called hemangiosarcoma) is a blood filled tumor occuring in soft tissue. Here is a link if you want to learn more.http://www.emedicine.com/med/topic138.ht...
I have never heard of heart cancer is it rare.
Cancer of the heart muscle called angiosarcoma do occur but are rare n occur more often in children n more often on the right side of the heart.Cancers like melanoma can spread to the heart.This cancerous spread is called metastasis. Moreover cancer is said to occur more commonly in tissues which have actively dividing cells like the bone marrow, skin, etc. Since the heart cells are essentially non-dividing, it can be said that, that is the cause of heart cancer being so rare.
i think i might have the answer.cancer is the overgrowth of cells in our body. and this only apply to those cells which have the capability to regenaerate, of course. and in our body as a whole, we have 2 types of cells - the one which can regenerate like skin cells and the one which cannot regenerate such as cells in the brain and heart.our heart consists of muscles called myocardia. and whenever we don't have the sufficient oxygen supply, then this muscles will be damaged - they will suffer from ischemia or necrosis. once the heart is damaged, the cells cannot regenerate to replace the damaged ones, instead the damaged area is replaced by fibrous tissu or scar tissue.so, based on this fact, i think that's why there' no heart cancer. heart doesn't even has the cells that can be a good potential to be the source of abnormal growth. =) yeah, since our heart cannot regenerate ~ well, that's what i think.and just FYI, the brain too doesn't have cells that can regenerate but stil we can have cancer in the brain. why is that? that's because our brain also composed of supporting cells, the glial cells, apart from the brain cells itself (neurons). this glial cells can regenerate whenever they are damaged and thus becoming the potential source for cancer growth.
One can. My boss died from it. Started in a lung and spread to his heart. Dead 6 weeks after diagnosis.
Its possible to, but I have never heard of anyone having it.

Why do you lose weight without changing your diet w/ diabetes 2?
Answer:
When blood sugar is uncontrolled, the nutrients you eat do not fuel your cells; instead they build up in the blood as glucose which is filtered out into the urine. This can cause weight loss. Additionally, eventually, the body begins to break down fatty acids for fuel and this also causes weight loss.Sugar does not "eat away" at your muscles.The person above me is leading you to a scam. Beware.
the sugar in your blood starts to eat away at your muscles cells after it has completely ate away at all your fat cells and this is also why some ppl lose body parts,,,b%26#92;c their sugars go to high
for controlling diabetes. Better you must visit this site http://thediabeteszone.com/
Not everyone does. Some people like me have to constantly struggle just to maintain my weight and not gain. As you get older your metabolism comes to a screeching halt making it difficult at best to lose weight.
it depends on your blood sugar levels
Why do you have to wait 24 hours to give Neulasta after administration of chemotherapy?
Answer:
Neulasta is what is known as a granulocyte colony stimulating factor. It works by stimulating the bone marrow cells to divide more rapidly to increase the number of white blood cells which are introduced into the circulation.Chemotherapy works by disrupting mechanisms required for cells to divide. It is taken up by all the cells in the body which are actively dividing. Normally, cancer cells are more rapidly dividing that normal cells, and they take up more of the chemotherapy, but normal cells will also take it up giving some of the side effects. Your bone marrow cells are also affected by the chemotherapy and this is what causes the white blood cell count to go low in the first place. So, if you give Neulasta before the chemotherapy, you have just set up your bone marrow cells to be killed more by the chemotherapy as they are now more actively dividing. Hope this helps
I don't know.
I never asked questions, I just did it.
Why do we get pain in our sinuses? need ab?
Answer:
If the sinus cavities fill with fluid or infection, the pressure can cause pain over the areas that are involved. There are many sinus products over-the-counter, usually and antihistamine with a decongestant. The antihistamine reduces the amount of histamine fluid build up, and the decongestant thins out the tissues to make it easier to breath and relieve pressure.
Most products us a combination of generic Chlor-Trimeton (chlorpheniramine maleate) and an ephedrine product, so now you have to ask at the pharmacy for them - they're kept behind the counter.
Your question, need ab? It the mucous discharge is clear, white, antibiotics wouldn't help. If the discharge is dark yellow to greenish, then antibiotics would help the infection.
Maybe you have a sinus infection.
Why do toenails turn yellow?
Answer:
Not enough fresh air, that is, always having feet "shut up" in shoes, or wearing nail varnish for too long a period.
Fungus or bacteria on them
Toenail funges.
nail infection people have to see a doctor and they give u medicine to clear it up
It can be from bacteria or fungus, but it can also be a condition where the nail has grown back extra thick. You need to see a podiatrist in order to have it checked out.
Fungus. The fungus can eventually cause damage.At night, smother yourtoes and feet with a mixture of half water and half grapefruit seed oil. Then don't walk on them or touch them for at least an hour, or until the liquid completely dries.Do this every night for ten days, and see if it helps. It shouldn't hurt, and will certainly cost less than treatment from a doctor.One way to kill fungus is to smother it, to cut off its oxygen supply.
Mine don't. I wash my feet though...don't you wash yours?
toenails turn yellow when there is fungus underneath the nail you need an anti fungal cream or spray lotrimin af is good but there are generics out there that are cheaper ask the pharmist and they will be able to help you locate the products and ways to prevent it from coming back my friends paint their toenails and they don't turn yellow some little germy got under there and made your toenail its home
It is probably afungal infection. You need to the doctor for a prescription. The other at home remedy that you can try is Vicks vapor rub. Apply to the nail 2 times a day. if you can't go to the doc this may help.
Why do they chlorify the swimming pool water?
If it's not chlorified, what kind of diseases would spread?
Answer:
Chlorine as known as Bleach (obviously) is used to to prevent all types of growth in the water of pools. It has a wide spectrim of coverage...such as Alge, Prevents mosqitoe's egg growth, Parasites such as Cryptosporidium, as well as Bacteria.
hence many types of disease could be spread if chlorine was not used...Crytosporsosis, Staph infections, to name a couple.
Chlorine does not directly prevent diesease. Chlorine is added to so that things that usually grow in water will not be able to survive. Mainly it algae and thus water animals that live off algae.
im not sure of disease as such but the water will turn a green colour and bread tadpoles and frogs to become clear water again simply chlorifiey and you have clear water
