My skin cancer specialist had the worst bedside manner, especially I'm told repeatedly, towards women. It was my first round with Cancer and I was not sure what to expect.

He was very gruff, I have to admit, but he had very skilled hands and he made sure I knew how to take care of my skin when he had finished making sure that his scalpel caught it all. Very few doctors make sure you know what to use in post op procedures. Changing bandages is usually not left to the patient. He was one of the most thorough doctors I've ever had and because I move quite a bit, I've had a lot of them.

Any Cancer scares you to death. You are reminded of your mortality. Skin cancer can be deadly, but it need not be with proper prevention. Clothing for me changed. I wear long sleeve shirts and a very wide brimmed hat when I'm outside.

I exercise more carefully. I watch all the tell tale signs of skin cancer. (So far no reoccurrence). All cancers can morph or travel to other locations. So that's a concern. Skin cancer can become either a melanoma (very hard to treat) or rarely a bone cancer (almost always fatal and painful).

I do not believe in alternate medicine for treatment of cancer once it has arrived. It might be good for prevention, but I wouldn't bet the farm on it.
I trust my doctors. I have to say I've never had a bad one. The doctor I started with wasn't bad. In fact he was quite good. He just had no bedside manner. Few oncologists do now days. Why are you asking?

Obesity is associated with what? a. increased cck level b. decreased agt level c. decreased pyy level d. decreased arc level

Marrrta [24]

Peptide YY (PYY) levels drop when adiposity levels rise, and a drop in PYY levels is linked to obesity. The correct answer is C. decreased PYY level.

Following food ingestion, proximal small intestine cells produce cholecystokinin (CCK). Its effects include reduced appetite, satiation, and insulin and pancreatic enzyme release. Obesity reduces CCK levels. The production of angiotensinogen (AGT), which is elevated in obesity, occurs in the liver and adipocytes. By balancing the conflicting actions of two sets of neurons, the arcuate nucleus (ARC) in the hypothalamus regulates how much food is consumed and how the body uses its energy.

Where are HIV found in elite controller

erik [133]

Answer: In barren areas of chromatin.

Explanation:

Elite controllers are considering individuals with human immunodeficiency of virus-1 which means that it can maintain undetectable plasma virus levels and it is very rare.

60% of the elite controllers' HIV material is found in areas that are barren areas of chromatin and also called ''gene deserts''.

They contain about 0,12 percent of the integration sites which means that there HIV can plan its genes physically but that does not change the fact that 60% of the elite controllers' HIV genetic material is found in those areas.

Describe a potential risk that distinguishes hurdle stretches performed with the leg pointed back from hurdle stretches with the

andrey2020 [161]

Hey, there hope this helps

Explanation: Both types of hurdle stretches loosen up the hamstring in the same way. But the hurdle stretch with the leg pointed back puts sideways torque on the back knee and can result in serious injury. So while the potential benefit of the exercises are the same, one risks serious injury to the knee.

Good luck :3
