Patient discussion about aspartate transaminase.

Q. I got runny nose every morning and in the evening. Never had this problem before. Worst still is gardening. Why why why?

A. I have Janet Craig, and Corn plan Draceanas, Spider Plants, Chinese Evergreen, Weeping Fig, Pothos,and Peace Lilly; plus others. The largest are the Draceanas and those named are supposed to be among the best at cleaning toxins from the air. They Rubber Plants are a good choice but I'm running out of room! Jade may want some company!

Q. i have genital herpes ...i got it from ex boyfriend is there a natural cure that you know of? i've had 2 breakout in a year and a half

Q. I think I have got involved with a man who had a bipolar, he never mentioned it I need to talk to somebody,pls The problem is he would never even admit it if I ever ask him. He's nice and caring and the next day he would disapearing without any reason, after a few weeks he would come back again even without saying sorry and repeats over and over again.... I need to talk to somebody... Thank you

A. Have you thought of writing to him about how you feel? I find sometimes writing out my feelings helps me and also ensures you get out all that you want to say without interuption. When you are in his presance how does he behave? Any sign of bipolar syptoms? Is he easily agitated, lots of energy or problems sleeping or any signs of depression?
Also does he have people living close to him? Any children, friends etc that you may be able to talk to about your concerns? They may be able to shed some light on this situation for you.
