I wear dentures. I was in a car accident about a year ago. I had three broken bones in my face. The dentist that looked at my mouth stated that my mouth needed to be built up if I were to have implants. Can you give me me a high estimate if I decided to do this. I don't want to waste your time or mind if this is not in my budget. I would appreciate any help you could give me in this matter. Thank you, Maureen Gervase

This is a 2 part question. How do you deal with a patient or loved one who defies everything told to him about health? In my case a husband. He goes for yearly check ups. With my push, will get the blood work and CXR. He was told to watch tryglycerides and of course he knows better. Last glucose was 112 fasting and once again was told to watch carbos. He does not. His mother buys him sugar products with a disclaimer that "this won't hurt him". (This woman had a husband with cancer, on chemo and was told not to be close to him while she had the flu. She defies that order and sleeps in the same bed, because "I won't hear him in the nignt." He ends up with Gram negative bacteria and dies quickly.) My stomach is in knots. I am a RN and get treated like an idiot. They insult my learned experience and it hurts me emotionally. I have constant chest pains, rulled out PE and MI. I am a mess. Past dx was GERD. Nothing is helping the GERD. Am I coming to a point where I have to take something to calm my nerves because of his stupidity? Seems unfair to me.

I wear dentures. For years I have had to use denture adhesive. Now I hear that Poligrip has zinc in it and can cause neurologicaland other health problems. What can I do now to hold my teeth in? Getting older is bad enough, now I have to worry about this, will it cause Alzheimer’s or something like that?

Yes-. I have a question about dentures. I have had them for 20 some years and I haven't been to see a dentist. What more could he do? I'm afraid to laugh or they will come loose and I'm so tired of the oozing fixodent. I can't chew right and they hurt, it seems to be getting worse and worse. I have read about Dr. Sohl and what are teeth in a day? I have to do something. Thank you, Mel P.

I have a feeling that I may be getting alzeimers.. I am almost 70 and very active.. do crosswords, play games on computer, etc. to keep my mind active and take care of my 2 year old great granddaughter daily. But I am forgetting things, names, days etc. I know I should be checked with at my doctor, but I also don't want him to ignore me and the facts. How can I really determine if I have or am getting this disease?

Septic Tank Contractor - Bruce McCullers
Ive spent in 2 yrs 4000.00 on septic( 1st field line, 2nd new tank).Same problem exists, if we get 3 to 4 in of rain, water is settling above ground with areas of bubbling water , like an underground spring. I notice the area of the bubbling water is only at the lowest area of the yard which is one end of the field line. My yard from septic tank has a slight uphill grade and behind me other peoples yard slope to mine, and my yard is mostly clay.I had the guys out to check the problem. they dug holes and said the groundwater level was at the field line and filling it up and my yard is holding groundwater, therefore they cant do anything because the yard is no good. They feel the health dept would make me put in a mound system, but that would be 15,000 to 30,000. We canceled the appt for health dept, dont have that kind of money!!! But note the end of field line which meets the yards that slopes to mine, which is my high point, are 6 to 8 ft deep, could this be to far down sucking the groundwater like a straw and coming out of the other end , which is at the lowest point? Is there anything i can do to make my clay dirt absorb better? please help!!!!
