			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>ive fallen victim to drug addiction.  ive been on anywhere from 30-60 mg of oxycodone aout 5 days a week for the last 2 1/2 months.  i started n/a meetings last week for the first time.  either way, i received a letter in the mail for a civil service test i had taken to become a deputy sheriff and i passed and now am on a list of eligibility.  within a week i will probably have to take a urine test.  the last time i took opiates was a day and a half ago and i will not be taking anymore.  how long will it take for the opiates to flush from my system?  ive been drinking more than a gallon of water a day and i lift almost everyday and do cardio.  thank you for responses.  and i understand im addicted, please do not tell me things such as &quot;the drug test is the least of you worries, you need to get over your addiction first&quot;.  not to be mean, but i understand that for a fact.  i just need some info on a urine test.  thanks again.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I don't know if it was the bird flu. Probably was since I ran over a pidgeon the other day and I eat a lot of chicken.<br />
 <br />
So the first day when I actually felt something was weird was Tuesday. No big deal. No pains or anything just felt something coming on. Started to take vitamin C like a man man and eat more vegetables/fruits. Second day was when it actually hit. Wednesday was pretty bad. Had some chills, light coughing sore throat and headaches when I coughed. Pumped up my dosage of vitamin C, started eating raw carrots/broccoli and bought cans of chicken soup. Thursday was the worst. Chills, very sore muscles, body aches that kept me from sleeping. Would wake up every hour due to aches/chills and had to  due to all the water I was drinking. Took some cough medicine I had in the fridge and two tylenols to try to soothe the aches.<br />
 <br />
Friday the aches and pains went away. All I was left with was a sense of exhaustion. Today this morning I feel a little better. No more exhaustion, but I'm short of breath. I think by tomorrow this will completely go away and I can go back to lifting. I'm debating whether or not I should go lift today. I want to hit the weights heavy, but I'll probably just ease into it since my immune system just fought a week long battle. <br />
 <br />
Anyways I think the biggest contributor to fighting off this flu was tons of water, 4000+ mg of vitamin C a day, raw vegetables, apples, hot soothing soups, green teas and plenty of rest. The cough syrup probably helped too and the two capsules of tylenols definitely help put me to sleep when I would wake up every hour due to aches. <br />
 <br />
Did anyone else go through the flu yet? Oh and I didn't take any type of flu shots. I'm actually against it since the flu is a pretty natural occuring thing around this time.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Any of you fitnesss ever have a torn labrum?  How did you get it, how long did (have) you had it, what did you do to treat it, and what was/is the result?<br />
<br />
I'll go first.  I just discovered I have a torn labrum a few weeks ago.  I did a few sessions of PT and it seems the focus is to strengthen the muscles that make my shoulder blade go down and towards my spine.  Not sure if it's called scar retraction or what.<br />
<br />
I think I got it at least ten years ago playing football.  Just was never diagnosed.  Have the classic clunking sign that comes and goes.  I got really bad tendinitis in my elbow and I think it was because I was guarding and trying to protect my shoulder, therefore putting my elbow in a vulnerable position.<br />
<br />
Sometimes I clunk during the actual prescribed exercises, and I just don't do them that day.  The next day it may be fine.<br />
<br />
Shoulder starting to feel slightly better but building significant strength is not a matter of a few weeks.<br />
<br />
The main thing my PT said is never do exercises where the elbow goes behind the centerline of the body.  Actually I guess BP is alright.  Also never do shoulder press with torso straight up, have to be tilted back one hole on the incline bench.  Also, no BB exercises, I should use all DB so that my shoulders can move more naturally.<br />
<br />
Right now surgery is not an option, partially because you always try to rehab it first and partially because I have no health insurance.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hey Guys, my title pretty much says it all.  I just got done with the shredder stack (loved it and the results) a few weeks ago and have started my <a target="_blank" href="http://www.needtobuildmuscle.net/store/Post-Cycle-Therapy-Support-Supplements-c26/">PCT</a> (forged post cycle and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.primordialperformance.com/store/Sustain_Alpha-libido-booster.html">Sustain</a>).  On MOnday morning (after a good hard workout Sunday night) I was peeing out blood.  Long story short - went to doctor who ruled out cancer (thank god), hernia, masses, tumors, kidney stones.  My prostate is enlarged (I'm 42) but I don't know if it is from shredder stack or not.  My doctor thinks either the enlarged prostate is causing the blood or he said it could be exercise induced hemuteria (fancy name for blood in urine).  He wants me to lay off working out for a few weeks which I will do.  My question is have any of you guys had this happen? I have not worked out now siince Tuesday and there seems to be no more blood in my urine.  Thanks in advance for your imput.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Yes, my raving lunatic friend that I have now given up on sincerely believes that &quot;both&quot; of his frontal lobes are gone due to being infected with genital herpes. :worried:<br />
<br />
He also thinks that the doctor who diagnosed the herpes on his penis caused the herpes to spread to his anus by examining both spots with the same rubber gloves. :confused:<br />
He also doesn't have temporary outbreaks, he suffers every day all year long.<br />
<br />
He also quit his job because he was mad at his co-workers from his previous job. :mad:<br />
<br />
Is this possibly paranoid schizophrenia?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>A couple of days ago I went to the gym to do a upper body work out. As I was doing my bench press I ripped out a fart while trying to lift the weights. I continued to do my reps when I felt something creamy in my underwear. At first I thought I had diarrhea, but when I ran to the washroom and dropped my pants their was blood coming out of my ass. :worried:<br />
<br />
I cleaned it up and noticed that their was no more blood coming out. I went to the emergency room thinking that the steroids killed something inside of me, or a vein ripped or whatever, but when the doctor put a probe up my ass, he said that their is nothing wrong with me and said that the blood that came out is not coming out anymore. He said that he could not tell me where the blood came from at the hospital and he game me a slip to go to a special anal clinic. My appointment is for next week. I'm quite scared and don't want this happening again. He suggested to just leave it alone and if it happens again to come in and they will look for the leak.<br />
<br />
I Googled this problem on the internet and found only a couple of people having this problem when working out. I don't know if it's due to my last cycle i was on &quot;which now I'm off&quot; or if it's from lifting. This never happened to me before.<br />
<br />
I was hoping that someone could tell me if this ever happened to them and what is the cause. <br />
<br />
ps.. No I don't shove toys or ANY item up my ass that could of caused this.<br />
<br />
Please help...  :(</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>No. It's not. Cancer victims have to get chemo therapy and all kinds of other . All swine flu victims have to do is drink more water, rest and shut the  up. Swine flu is nothing compared to cancer. While we're at it, cancer is nothing compared to aids.  cancer. People with aids are more . They have to go through life knowing they ed one too many gay guys in the ass without a condom. <br />
 <br />
But it does seem like the swine flu is the new cancer in a way. People talk about it all the time. Even brag about having had it. It's always on the news and it's almost a hip and progressive disease to have. Pretty soon they're going to come out with swine flu bracelets. Maybe even drinks will be named after it at trendy hip bars in places like New York.</div>
