Which chronic disease is the number one killer among adults? -

hypertension? diabetes? cancer? heart failure?

Ischaemic heart disease is the biggest killer in developed countries.

heart disease

HEART FAILURE

In the US, it s coronary heart disease. Factors that contribute to it are hypertension, diabetes, and heart failure is one of the outcomes of it.

stress from children

Heart disease Malignant Neoplasms Cerebro-vascular Chronic low Respiratory Disease Diabetes Mellitus Alzheimer s Disease, Influenza amp; Pneumonia Nephritis Septicema

it usually depends on the results of the studies in each country... but, generally, i think the number one killer is represented by the group of cardiovascular diseases (miocardial infarction, strokes etc). Cancer comes second in list, usually (men with pulmonary cancer and women with breast cancer).

Heart Disease followed by cancer...

hypertension, hipertension, hypertension. -- almost a two thirds of population present with it, predisposes to almost every heart disease including heart failure, MI, aortic aneurisms, atrial fibrillation, and cerebral disease like stroke, cerebral aneurism, renal failure... -- is asymptomatic untill very late of course that s only for adults in the western world....

i would guess hypertension but i am not a doctor

Why did my husband die of a cardiac arryhthmia so fast? 1 min defibulator 4 min ems. 10 sec blue and cpr.? -

HYPERTENSION CARDIA ARRYHTHMIA. PRIPR OLYMPIC ATHLETE. GOOD SHAPE 5 DATYS AFTER HIS 51ST BIRTHDAY. NO SYMPTOM. TURNED OVER TO GO TO SLEEP. WHY WITH ALL THE IMMEDIATE HELP, HE COULDN T BE SAVED?

So very sorry to hear of the loss of your husband. My husband died instantly with a massive heartattack, and he was only 47. Unfortunately sometimes our loved ones cannot be saved due to undetected heart problems. Pray for strength to get you through the sorrow. Blessings.

Sometimes it is just our time to go. It was my time about a year ago but something brought me back. As hard as it is right now; I can tell you he is in a truly wonderful place now and some day you will join him.

I am sorry for your lose, I have the same problem, Doctors caught it in time to put a implantable defibrillator right above my heart kind of like a pacemaker, they told me that my heart had in time lost alot of muscle and it became floppy, he probably had this condition for a long time and didn t know it, doctors have told me if I didn t have this done I would die within seconds I am only 49 years old.

They have done many studies that link cardiac arrhythmia with mercury toxicity. That is very hard to reverse.

When is someone NOT a candidate for coronary artery bypass surgery? -

number of affected vessels, diabetes, smoking, hypertension, left and right ventricular function, kidney failure (dialysis) and numerous other factors impact on bypass surgery, but even with these risk factors, some people can still have bypass surgery. why can t others? just curious.

Depends on the competency is also a major contraindication!! Absence of an open major artery 1 mm or more in diameter beyond the obstructing lesion. Non viable myocardium present below the site of CABG; are some of the contraindications although a healthy topic much cannot be written.

Others cannot because they are judged to have too many risk factors or complicating factors that would negatively impact their ability to survive the surgery or recover appropriately afterward. Each person is different, their response to surgery will be different. Doctors must carefully weigh all that is happening in a patient s life and in their health when making such a crucial decision.

All the risk factors need to be weighed to evaluate the possibility of complications and the recovery time. I would add another factor to your list. If a patient has advanced Alzheimer s Disease they are not a good candidate, even if they would otherwise be considered. My grandfather was refused for this reason. He would not have been able to keep from pulling IVs out and tying him to the bed is not possible. It turned out to be a good thing, he lived another 6 mo. despite not having surgery.

Another is stiff, hard arteries, that could not handle a suture.

Low Ejection (EF) Factor is one of the reasons. If the EF is very low, the patient will not come out alive from the OT.

Former veternarian turned physician did study on importance of minerals in diet? -

I did a paper of this in 1997 from a cassette tape I had heard. These studies included importance of vitamins and minerals you can put in your diet and some people no longer needed insulin, hypertension medications, etc...

What is your question ? Natural medicine attests to individual physiology .If you live making poor dietary choices or in an area with particularly poor soil you will get mineral deficiencies Australian soil is low in zinc for example. .As my favourite lecturer puts it there s a wide range to normal

Putting a question mark at the end of the words doesn t make it a question! So what is your question? Do you see the difference? Can you tell these are questions?

I would be very cautious about relying on medical information unless it can be proven and backed up by extensive research - and I don t mean research or opinion of one person. Minerals are an important part of the diet, however, claims that they can cure the diseases you mentioned is just bunk!!

Are physical illnessess caused by emotional illnessess? -

Say people that are prone to anger problems have heart issues and hypertension or people that have unresolved emotional issues are more likely to develop certain cancers just as an example.

Some good examples of this are stomach ulcers usually got by really stressed out people or psoriasis also caused by stress. I m a diabetic amp; if I get really upset I tend to have a low blood sugar attack - this happens every time.

yes, you answered your own question though...

Yes. It is a fact that one of the reasons so many soldiers died of the 1918 Spanish flu was that even though they were healthy, they were under combat and emotional stress. Another reason was that it was the coldest winter on record and they were all huddling overcrowding around stoves. Both weakened their immune systems.

yes

mental illness can bring on physical illness (psychosomatic symptoms such as vomiting, irregular bowel movements, headaches, muscle aches etc.) physical illness can bring on mental illness (people with serious medical conditions have a high rate of developing depression/anxiety).

yes yes yes totally breast cancer is from hatred to a woman ... and so on God bless!

some physical ailments are caused by emotional, yes. they say that some physical ailments are also linked spiritually. i believe that is true for some things. it s all a big cycle. i can t wait until i get to heaven and there s no more sickness! :) God bless you and have a wonderful day. take care! :)

Not all physical illnesses are caused by emotional illnesses but many of them are. I know for sure that stress and angry can trigger the heart to hurt or fail. However there are many phyical ilnesses caused by heiditary problems these are the desease passed on from one generation to the other. Some diseases caused by wrong medication or reation to mixed medications. And of course the diseases caused by accidents either intake lof some foods of abusing the body.

more and more doctors are finding that the mind and body are very closely connected...there are of course hereditary and gender factors..emotional problems have been linked to hypertention, headaches, body pain, digestive problems, cardiovascular illnesses, sleep issues, unexplained wt loss or gain and the list goes on and on...Louise Hay has some good books out there that go in depth as to how illnesses are linked to our mental health..as far as developing certain cancers, i would not be surprised..i have seen what a strong spirit can do though to get through cancers and tumors...be well and keep smilin!!

is true, like stress, sadness and stuff causes lot of deaseases.

Pulsation sound in right ear? -

I notice a pulsation sound in my right ear at bedtime or at random and very infrequent times during the day. The sound lasts about 3 to 5 seconds. I do take medication for hypertension and am aware the pulsation is a indicator of hypertension. Could this pulsation in my right inner be serious?

Its not serious, I also had it for 4 days now and I m fine, it ll go away in a few days. It can also be caused by stress
