Meta-Physician On Call - Making the Connection Between Mind, Body and Spirit

Our anatomy books are rather specific about the way our bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments are arranged, and same is true with our internal organs. Charting the specific connections between mind, body and spirit are a little trickier.

Yes, neuroscientists and neuroradiologists have identified regions in the brain via PET and SPECT scans — that are involved with mystical and meditative states of consciousness. But this image on the screen can barely represent the experience itself. Mind, body and spirit connect in a far more subtle but profound interplay. This is not the stuff you find in Greys Anatomy.. It is through our intuitive eye that we can perceive the truth of their inter-relationship.

The reality of the notion of mind/body/spirit has become a part of our cultural lexicon and, in spiritual and health conscious circles, it is acknowledged as unquestionably true. But how many of us are truly living our lives as if there is a common connection between all aspects of our being? Our awareness of the potential for great health and a great life often runs up against the cold reality of day to day living. Many of us find it deeply challenging to stay with that consciousness.

What happens when you find that your bills are escalating and you dont have the money to pay them? What happens when your boss insults you in front of others? How do you react to the unconscious driver, cell phone in hand, who just cut you off without even realizing it? How do you respond when your kid is flunking school or your parent is languishing in a nursing home? And how do you feel when you see images of starving babies, peoples whose lives are ravaged by poverty, crime , weather, earth changes or war?

The list of things that could easily lead you to greet each day feeling weighed down by the enormity of existence could very possibly overshadow your knowledge, intuitive wisdom, experience and belief in the mind/body/spirit connection.

Chaos has a way of making us forget that we have choices and I am certainly no exception. Despite what I consider to be my own significant awareness of the connection between all aspects of my being, there are days when I seem to forget it, or get thrown off balance by any number of chaotic, unconscious, unpleasant experiences. Thats why I believe that all of us need a prescription in place to always remind us that we are spiritual beings in earth suits not victims of circumstance or powerless over dis-ease.

As a physician/healer I truly feel a responsibility to raise the awareness of those who enter my examining room and to educate them regarding the interaction of all three aspects of themselves. I regularly address how emotions play a role in their physical symptoms and complaints. I am open to discussing whats going on in their lives, relationships, work, to help understand the stressors that are affecting them physically.

But not everybody gets it. Some are annoyed because they just want me to fix them without their having to do anything. If they acknowledge the contribution of their own thoughts and feelings towards their physical complaints, then they must take an active role in their own healing. This requires effort, introspection, and work. Many are not prepared to do so or simply choose not to. As a physician I am able to offer them my knowledge and experience. As a healer, I can bring a more extensive protocol to the picture. But the ultimate power to heal resides within themselves. Not everyone is ready to own that. But those who are courageous enough to face their feelings and realize they have a choice about how they react will ultimately begin to heal themselves.

Dr. Steves Prescriptions:

1. Research and recognize the reality of the mind/body/spirit connection. It is the first step in permitting oneself to become whole, to heal.

2. Observe how our emotional state produces physical symptoms.

3. Accept lifes difficulties as a necessary part of our souls spiritual journey. What you resist, persists.

4. Let others help no one has to suffer alone and be of help to others.

5. Give yourself permission to truly tap into your own innate healing abilities by finding your personal path to wellness.

6. Acknowledge that we are all responsible for our own health and allow the mind/body/spirit connection to truly thrive in your life.

Paxil May Increase Risk of Birth Defects

In a report by Health Day News, Americas obstetrician group is recommending that women who are pregnant or are trying to become pregnant do not use the anti-depressant drug Paxil. The drug has recently been discovered to increase the risk of birth defects; other anti-depressant medication should be dealt with on a case to case basis.

The report was based on 2 separate studies. The first study found a 2% increase in the risk of heart defects of children born from mothers that were taking Paxil. The second study found that mothers who took Paxil increased the risk of birth defects by 1.5% over regular anti-depressant medication. Most defects were found to be heart related. Other reports conclude that Paxil as well as several other drugs may cause withdraw symptoms in new borns.

The article states, ACOG acknowledged that these potential problems must be weighed against yet another study which found that pregnant women who discontinue their antidepressant medication are five times more likely to relapse into depression than women who continue with the medication.

Although taking anti-depressant medication increases the risk of birth defects, not taking the medication also causes problems that could be possibly be even more detrimental to an unborn baby. Women who discontinue use of the medication are 5 times more likely to fall back into depression compared to women who take the medication. This could lead to substance abuse, alcohol abuse, and weight loss, all of which can be just as damaging to an unborn baby.

How the Wonder Drug Penicillin was Discovered

The discovery of penicillin is generally attributed to Dr. Alexander Fleming. While working in his laboratory at St. Marys Hospital in London in 1928 Dr. Fleming conducted research on the pus forming bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. This bacteria was and still is a major cause of infections in wounds and injuries. The research Dr. Fleming engaged in required growing cultures of Staphylococcus aureus on plates coated with agar. When he examined the plates under a microscope he noticed one of them had accidentally been contaminated by some kind of mold that was killing his Staphylococcus aureus cultures. At first Dr. Fleming did not realize the significance of the mold and was simply annoyed that his hard work had been ruined. Fortunately he did not throw away the plate with the strange mold on it and instead he just set it aside.

Later, Dr. Fleming decided to investigate what went wrong with the contaminated plate. He put a tiny piece of the strange mold in a solution rich in protein and the mold soon began to grow quickly. The mold formed a cluster of blue green cells that when observed under the microscope looked something like a brush. Dr. Fleming was then able to identify the mystery mold as a member of the Penicillium group which is named from the Latin word penicillius which means brush. All of our modern Penicillium mold cultures are derived from this first sample Dr. Fleming had the good judgement to preserve when he realized that something that can kill the dangerous Staphylococcus aureus bacteria is just what we need!

Dr. Fleming proceeded to grow the mold on more plates coated with agar and to test whether or not it had the same effect on other types of bacteria. Although it had no effect on the disease causing germs B. typhosus and B. dysenteria it did rapidly destroy gonococcus which is the cause of the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea. When mice and rabbits were injected with an extract of the mold they were not sickened or harmed by it. Dr. Fleming was very encouraged by this and added some of the mold extract to a small sample of human blood. When he examined the blood under a microscope he saw that the blood cells were apparently unharmed. This is critical of course where any medicine is concerned. We can kill infectious bacteria sitting in a laboratory dish by simply pouring household bleach on it. But bleach is highly toxic and cannot be ingested or injected into the human body. The real trick is to find a substance that kills the harmful bacteria but does not harm the human body itself.

For the next several years Dr. Fleming tried to interest the scientific and medical community in his blue green but met with a great deal of skepticism. People just did not want to believe that something like a mold could cure diseases. Without the money or resources to further the development of his discovery he could only keep his mold sample alive and wait for people to finally see the potential of it. When the second world war broke out people became desperate to find new ways to treat all the wounded soldiers and prevent their injuries from becoming infected. Under the impetus of war the research and development of Dr. Flemings Penicillium mold finally got the attention it so richly deserved.

During the second world war Dr. Howard Walter Florey led a team of scientist and technicians at Oxfords Sir William Dunn School of Pathology who finally managed to produce penicillin in sufficient quantities to test it against a wide variety of microbes. In 1940 penicillin was first used to treat a human patient who was a policeman with a blood infection. Further research told us that penicillin kills bacteria by breaking down their cell walls or by inhibiting their growth. After the war penicillin was hailed as a wonder drug and has since saved countless lives. Even today penicillin continues to serve as an invaluable medicine and its discovery laid the foundation of our modern antibiotic science.

Find A Doctor As Per His Ratings

Doctors search sites are now more accurate and authentic. Accurate in the sense that you can find a doctor depending on his area of specialization and location and authentic in the sense that you can see the ratings of doctors before selecting one. A number of sites also provide search facilities where you can find doctors state wise, category wise, and even specialty wise.

A number of doctors search sites even allow you to rate doctors whom you have visited. These ratings are an important innovation. People will rate a good doctor high while an average doctor will get a rating which he deserves. This is a very important innovation as far as popularity of a doctor is concerned.

Rating had become a necessity for online doctors search sites to survive. Any doctors search website is typically a place where doctors can register with their area of specialization and location details. These details are stored in a database and displayed accordingly whenever a user performs a search.

However, before rating a doctor, it is important that you visit him personally. How would you do that? Start by using a doctors search directory to find out a doctor. While choosing a doctor, you should keep in mind the following aspects: 1. Area of specialization; 2. Location; 3. Visiting charge; 4.Affiliations; 5. Patient feedback.

However, before using any such directory, it is important that you verify the credentials, qualifications, or abilities of any physician contained therein. You should understand, that any physicians directory does not verify doctors credentials. Some directories do display credentials and any certificate they have got for their superior service that can be a proof of their credibility. You can check this out before opting for any doctor.

A brief search on the Internet and you will come across a number of physicians directories that you can easily use as a quick reference of information about physicians across the US. A number of sites also provide search facilities where you can find doctors state wise, category wise, and even specialty wise.

A number of physicians directories will help you find a doctor by specialty, location, or even name. in fact, every year there are approximately 900 million physician and patient appointments in the United States. Statistics show that over 100 million physician and patient appointments are first time appointments where patients do not have any information about the physician. You should understand the risk that pertains to this. Most of us are forced to take this risk because we do not have any other option to know about these doctors. However, a search through a physicians directory will ensure that you have some first hand information about physicians.

The best way to find a physician online is to go for such directory that provides physicians with the following;

1) Area of specialization,

2) Visiting fee,

3) Location of service,

4) Patient feedback, and

5) Some other services to help your search.

A number of physicians directories also serve some leading pharmaceutical prescription drug manufacturing companies to locate doctors, thereby augmenting their authenticity. Hence, you should always check out for such sites to find a physician.

Natural Remedies from Herbs and Plants

Natural remedies have been around for thousands of years, and were the product of trial and error with eating many different plants over the course of time. Man has a long history with herbs and there healing properties. Herbs have saved many of lives and relieved people of a lot of suffering for thousands of years.

Herbal treatments take many forms, depending were in the world you happen to be, as different climates offer a different verity of plants for people to find there medicines in.
Many Herbs are also the sources of many of todays modern drugs. Pharmaceutical companies seen an opportunity to capitalize off the unique chemical compounds found in herbs and synthesized the compounds in labs, and were able to produce more concentrated forms of many of the drug compounds found in nature.

Pharmaceutical companies engineered many variations of these compounds found in herbal remedies. At the same time modern society started forgetting about herbal remedies and started using the artificial drugs that we could buy from the local pharmacy.

Many of the old herbal cures and remedies were soon lost and forgotten as each generation past. Unfortunately we all become to accustom to just buying our drugs off the shelves at the pharmacy.

Also something that we lost out on was the fact that herbs are natural and are symbiotic with there interactions on human beings. We started taking all these artificial drugs not found in nature, but rather the altered natural molecular structures found in nature, and having no biochemical relationship to the chemistry of the people and animals that eat them.

It just stands to reason that the evolution of all living creatures is defined by there environment, and the other living creatures and plants around them. The chemistry of all living things sharing the same environment, have a connection with one another on a complex chemical level. Each individual organism that shared the same environment while selectively mutating each generation, was influenced on a bio chemical level by the other organisms, sort of like biochemical cousins.

There is a symbiotic relationship with all organisms in a shared environment. So when you start to have people eating chemicals that dont have this symbiotic relationship, these drugs stop being medicine and start becoming your poison. And though it may not be apparent right away, this will take it toll in time. People thought they could pull away from nature, but now are starting to realize you have to keep your roots to your environment, or face all kinds of sickness and disease.

Herbal remedies are the real source to keeping us all healthy and strong. Weather we like it or not, we all evolved in nature, and we can not get to far from it, or we will die.
People are a very complex assemblage of biochemicals that are interdependent with other forms of life that they evolved with. So as a species we cant just step away from the other animals and plants that we are dependent on for our survival. And start to take a new chemical compound and just throw it into the mix, and not inspect to have problems. Herbs are natures medicines that were specifically designed for us and through the course of many years by selective mutation, just as we were evolved around them to be compatible in nature. So if were looking to cure our selves it will be from the knowledge to use herbs and plants and not from buying foreign chemical molecules to introduce to our bodies that were never designed for them.

The Advantages of Arthroscopic Spine Procedures

Until the turn of the century, people who had back injuries could choose between often ineffective medical treatments and potentially risky surgical treatments. Quite a few chose to live with the pain. In the past decade, spinal surgeons have begun to use minimally invasive arthroscopic spine procedures to treat back injuries, which have important advantages over traditional surgical treatment for back injuries.

Pain. People who have arthroscopic spine procedures have less post-operative pain and, in some cases, get better pain relief than with open surgery. Arthroscopic spine procedures can often reverse the pain from failed back surgery, too.

No general anesthesia. Arthroscopic spine procedures are done without anesthesia, avoiding the associated risks. This is especially important for high risk patients with lung or heart disease.

The patient is awake and communicative. Patients are sedated and sleepy, but easily arousable. They can participate by following directions and telling the surgeon when their pain is relieved.

There is less tissue trauma. Instead of cutting through muscles and other tissue around the spine, the surgeon nudges the tissue out of the way with the endoscope. That means theres less pain, less damage to muscles, less scarring after surgery and less risk of bleeding or infection.

Shorter hospitalization. Arthroscopic spine procedures can usually be done as a day surgery. If hospitalization is required, it is much shorter than with open back surgery.

Faster recovery. Most people go home the same day and recover pretty quickly. Most can return to light activities within the first week. Complete recovery can take 6-8 weeks, as opposed to several months with surgery.

Direct microscopic imaging of the injured area. The surgeon has a much better view of the operative area and the view is magnified. It is not obscured by blood or other tissue.

Microsurgical capability. The surgeon can perform intricate procedures in very small areas. Instead of performing a laminectomy and removing the lamina, he can perform a laminotomy and delicately remove small slices of bone around the nerve root to relieve pressure.

Of course, there are some potential risks to arthroscopic spine procedures, too, although the risk is considerably smaller than with open surgery. Infection and bleeding can still occur. There can be complications from intravenous fluids or the medications used for sedation, and some people have muscle spasms for a few days after surgery.

Some spinal problems are not suitable for treatment with arthroscopic spine procedures and sometimes the patient and surgeon will have to determine whether its better to have one open surgery or multiple arthroscopic spine procedures.

We can expect the use of arthroscopic spine procedures to continue to increase as the technology improves and surgeons become even more proficient with using it.

Tracing The Many Causes Of Headache

In order to treat any type of headache, experts advise that you must know the possible causes first. Studies show that all types of headaches are usually chemical, emotional, or structural related problems.

1. Dental problems. One of the most common reasons of headaches is dental problem. Findings prove that if the teeth of a persons upper and lower jaw fail to meet properly, this can result to muscle tension that leads to headache.

Another dental-related cause of headache is the grinding or clenching of the teeth at night or bruxism. Because of the strain caused by heavy chewing or grinding, certain bones and muscles in the jaw are greatly stimulated that triggers headache.

What you can do is to increase your calcium and magnesium intake or use a plastic mouthpiece to reduce clenching and grinding. Aside from bruxism, another headache-related dental problem is known as temporomandibular disorder (TMD)a cycle of pain, muscle spasms, and joint imbalance that involves the jaw and the skull and results to interruption of bones, cartilage and muscle activity. You can ask your dentist to evaluate this situation and recommend treatment options to solve the problem.

2. Chemical sensitivities. Chemicals found in different gadgets such as computers are one of the major triggers of headaches such as migraine.

Caffeine that is usually found in sodas, coffee, tea, chocolate, and some over the counter painkillers can also cause headaches. Try to eliminate all the sources of caffeine from your diet.

3. Magnesium deficiency. If a person suffers from magnesium deficiency, he/she may likely suffer from headaches compared to those who are not.

In order to maintain enough magnesium supply, avoid too much mental stress, drinking lots of coffee, eating sugary foods, a high sodium, carbohydrate and calcium diet, alcohol intake, drinking sodas, cigarette smoking, diuretics, and taking in drugs of all types.

4. Infections and bacterial disease. Infections in the different areas of the body such as the nose, throat, and ear can cause major headache.

Characterized by fever, nausea, muscle aches, chills, and diarrhea, Bacterial disease such as ehrlichiosis can be a major cause of headache. Make sure that you visit your physician to get proper treatment.

5. Muscle tension caused by stress and anxiety. Tensioned muscles usually cause headaches. What you can do is to veer away from things that can cause you stress and anxiety in order to avoid recurrent muscle tension.

6. Musculoskeletal system problems. Misalignments of a persons spine and neck can greatly affect his/her poor posture and muscle tension that lead to headache. Try chiropractic, osteopathy, and physiotherapy treatments to solve this problem.

7. Eye problems. Various eye problems greatly contribute to headache. Visit your optometrist or ophthalmologist is your eyes need glasses or contact lenses already.

8. Lack of sleep and bad sleeping habits. Without enough sleep, your body is always tired. Muscle tension can build up which leads to headaches. Try to get enough hours of sleep and make sure that you eliminate bad sleeping habits such as using too many pillow or pulling a blanket over your to avoid having a headache.

9. Menstruation. Fluctuations of females hormone levels can also cause a great deal of headache. You can ask your doctor for helpful vitamins and supplements to solve this cause.

10. Neurological problems. Although it is a rare cause of headache, ask neurologists to examine you for possible brain tumors.

By conducting a series of tests such as CT or MRI, you can trace the possible cause of your recurrent headache.
Other causes include migraine, sinusitis, fevers, glaucoma, and neuralgia. Other serious causes of headache may include meningitis, sub-arachnoid haemorrhage, stroke, blood pressure, brain tumor, and temporal arteritis.

Medicine Search Engines: The Easy Way to Find Your Online Pharmacy

Good eating habits, regular exercises and a cheerful disposition are often considered as the essential constituents of a healthy lifestyle. A positive health empowers our mind, which generates the necessary impulse to do things in a wiser way. We all wish to have an energetic and healthy body but despite our best efforts our health is prone to illness. Health complications, major or minor, are common to all of us and the recovery process depends on the timely availability of medicines. In order to get the medicines, a patient either has to go through the tedious process of traveling to the nearest community drugstore or has to browse through thousands of online pharmacies to finally select and place an order with one of them. Still, after all this hard work, a patient might not get the desirable service quality in terms of the price and availability of the needed drugs.

The possible solution to the above complexity could be a common platform that entitles the patients to search, analyze and compare the goods and services offered by a variety of pharmacies and then subsequently place an order with the one that satisfies their criteria. Though the well-reputed generic search engines can be used for this purpose, they might not optimally serve as a good resource of quality medicines. The result sets of generic search engines are prone to manipulation by experts due to which a less desirable drug store may rank well enough that might influence a patient in placing an order with them. For a given keyword, the generic search engines will return links to various internet pharmacies that will require the user to go through the cumbersome process of browsing each of those websites individually to check the availability, prices and the support services offered by those online pharmacies.

In this scenario, a medicine search engine can be of great help to the patients. A specialized search engine, such as a medicine search engine takes into account only those pharmacies that comply with certain quality standards in terms of the various products and services offered by them. Alike generic search engines, a medicine search engine also offers a search box through which the patients need to query in the drug which in turn generates a far more exhaustive and comprehensive list of quality online pharmacies to choose from. Patients can compare the stock status, delivery time frame, prices and discounts to finally place an order with a pharmacy of their choice. Apart from that good medicine search engines provide user comments on various pharmacies that helps the patients to further streamline their choice of pharmacy. Some medicine search engines even offer added benefits like prescription history and customized support services on becoming their member.

Health complications are inevitable, but getting access to the right medicines at the right time for a right price is all what a patient needs during a bout of illness. Medicine search engines, powered by their unique search technology not only helps the patients to get quality and competitively priced medicines, but also saves a lot a valuable time and money.
