This test is called the Harris Benedict Equation. It is also easily remembered as a BMR and RMR Calculator.

Most neonatologists work in hospital settings.

Usually this is not normal. This might mean you have herpes or something of that nature.

No, a varicocele will not go away without treatment. Surgery is recommended if it is painful or causing infertility. Any doctor can order a semen-analysis to see if it is affecting your fertility. They typically feel like "a bag of worms" and only a urologist or a general surgeon with experience in this area should do the surgery.

I recommend that you always have a deck of cards. Regardless of the age group or level of deficit, there is almost ALWAYS something you can work on with a deck of cards - elicit speech, visual tracking, matching, following verbal directions, social interaction/pragmatics, rule comprehension, recall for sorting or matching...use your imagination. It is small, easy to get, and very replaceable. I recommend that you always have a deck of cards.

Doctors vary as to what checks they do. The checks that they should do are a combination of the following to ensure a wrong diagnosis is not made. Ultrasound can show if a heartbeat and movements are visible after a certain point. It should not be used on its own. Measurements of hCG will show a fall in levels. It does not matter if the levels are low, but they do need to show an increase. They may also do an internal check to see if the cervix is dilated. Listening for a heartbeat with Doppler or an ear trumpet is not reliable as it can be easily missed in the early stages.

Some may be for the same reasons other people are but not all of them are.

Some part-time plastic surgeons work as little as 5-10 hours per week. Many others work 40-50 hours per week. There is a great range, depending upon the desire of the particular individual practicing their medical specialty.

All doctors, including gynaecologists, are subject to maintaining the privacy of a patient's details, unless you are not Gillick-competent.

Yes....It is really just an in and out shot which you have to get sometime in your life...(unfortunately)! :(

That happens. Tell your neurologist. My right side was paralyzed from epilepsy. After a number of doctors could not help me, I went to the Mayo Clinic. The Neurologist there put me on large doses of limictal and topamax. (He started small and increased them gradually.) Now I have regained most of the use of my right side. Sure, those are two totally different problems but both problems affect the brain. There might be a treatment that can help you. I can not help you but perhaps a good doctor can.

Can vary. A very busy physician with over 20 yrs experience in his own practice can make up to 2 million dollars per year, before taxes, expenses, etc. Starting out in a private practice with an affiliation to other psysicians and hospitals can make up to 600,000 dollars to start. Generally, the figures published are for doctors working in hospital settings, and are either on salary or work in the hospital and get paid by the insurance companies. But because it is the national duty of U.S. hospitals to accept patients even without healthcare; especially in today's economy, up to 60% of an orthopedic surgeon's pay can be completly eradicated.

I believe the Veterans Affairs has decided that PN is a service connected disease to Agent Orange (Dioxin).

The top 10 percent earned more than $141,750, while the bottom 10 percent earned less than $29,920. Median annual earnings in the industries employing the largest numbers of judges, magistrate judges, and magistrates in May 2004 were $111,810 in State government and $65,800 in local government. Administrative law judges, adjudicators, and hearing officers earned a median of $68,930, and arbitrators, mediators, and conciliators earned a median of $54,760. In the Federal court system, the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court earned $208,100 in 2005, and the Associate Justices earned $199,200. Federal court of appeals judges earned $171,800 a year, while district court judges had salaries of $162,100, as did judges in the Court of Federal Claims and the Court of International Trade. Federal judges with limited jurisdiction, such as magistrates and bankruptcy court judges, had salaries of $149,132. According to a 2004 survey by the National Center for State Courts, salaries of chief justices of State high courts averaged $130,461 and ranged from $95,000 to $191,483. Annual salaries of associate justices of the State highest courts averaged $126,159 and ranged from $95,000 to $175,575. Salaries of State intermediate appellate court judges averaged $122,682 and ranged from $94,212 to $164,604. Salaries of State judges of general jurisdiction trial courts averaged $113,504 and ranged from $88,164 to $158,100. Most salaried judges are provided health, life, and dental insurance; pension plans; judicial immunity protection; expense accounts; vacation, holiday, and sick leave; and contributions to retirement plans made on their behalf. In many States, judicial compensation committees, which make recommendations on the amount of salary increases, determine judicial salaries. States without commissions have statutes that regulate judicial salaries, link judicial salaries to the increases in pay for Federal judges, or adjust annual pay according to the change in the Consumer Price Index, calculated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

THAT'S WHERE I GOT THE INFO FROM

To obtain a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) type of medical degree, one must go through 4 years of college and perform very well (GPA ~ 3.5 - 4.0); then the candidate must spend 4 years in medical school - upon graduation from medical school, an individual has earned a MD. The majority of MDs will then spend 3-7 years working in a hospital setting learning the specifics of a particular field of medicine (ie, pediatrics, dermatology, allegy, etc). rbb, MD

disease of the optic nerve (optic neuropathy)

There are several questions involved here. 1. I'm not sure what you mean by "if your doctor isn't thorough." Testing for STDs usually involves performing a speculum exam and taking cultures (taking some swabs and having them analyzed in a lab) from the vagina and around the cervix; a pap smear also should be performed as well. If there are "bumps" on the outside of the body, a culture for herpes can be taken. To truly be thorough, a urinalysis to look for certain STDs and blood tests for syphillis and HIV should also be performed. 2. If you have already been treated for an STD and haven't had any contact, it is still possible to have another STD since the treatments for each are different. If all of the above (see #1) were done, then it's unlikely that you still have any STDs. 3. A "small itchy crack in the vaginal lip" does not sound like a normal symptom of the common STDs; several things, including a lack of lubrication, dry skin, trauma to the area, or a skin infection could be causing this. If you have concerns about the care you are receiving, you can certainly seek a second opinion or discuss your concerns with your physician.
