http://cfs-cure.plus101.com ----- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Diet , Cures For Fatigue, Cure For Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Treatment Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is variable and unpredictable, and the condition takes its toll on the patient physically, mentally and emotionally. A number of studies have been performed on CFS, with one particular study determining poor early management of the disorder as a primary risk factor for severe CFS. Among the medical community, there is still no consensus on the best course of action for CFS. Most doctors feel that there is no cure for this condition, and limit their treatment to managing the symptoms. There is controversy over different approaches, and main ones being: • Prescription medications • Lifestyle changes • Diet • Nutritional supplements • Graded exercise therapy • Cognitive behavioral therapy • Other alternative/complementary treatments As CFS affects the patients not only physically but also mentally and emotionally, a holistic approach needs to be taken. It is also important that the people around CFS patients understand the condition, and realize that the patient is not just "being lazy" or "constantly feeling down" - chronic fatigue syndrome IS a serious illness and has severe symptoms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Cognitive behavioral therapy helps individuals to interpret their symptoms, which in turn helps the patient to shape their behavior in a way to better react to the symptoms. Graded Exercise Therapy A physical therapist can help determine the best exercises for the individual. Programs will start with low levels of exercising, increasing the intensity as the individual gradually builds strength and endurance. Lifestyle Changes Lifestyle changes will also be necessary, including individuals pacing themselves, lowering stress levels, eating a well-balanced diet, engaging in regular moderate exercise, and improving sleep habits. The individual’s work schedule may also need to be modified, as many individuals with CFS find maintaining their regular work schedule too draining. Diet and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Treatment Diet is crucial in CFS, and dietary supplements may be needed. Certain foods may need to be restricted from the diet, as these may trigger or exacerbate CFS symptoms. A diet-symptom journal can help individuals to identify problem foods. In addition, a significant number of CFS cases may be caused or worsened by un-diagnosed food allergies and intolerances. Therefore, it should be a priority for every patient to check for these using a food-symptom diary and elimination diet, especially if in addition to fatigue you experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as stomach cramps, constipation, or diarrhea. Prescriptions and Medications Depression is often associated with CFS. Antidepressants may be prescribed to treat depression, which in turn will help individuals to cope with CFS-related problems. Studies also show antidepressants administered in low doses may help to relieve pain and improve sleep. Prescription sleep aids may also be prescribed to help individuals improve their sleep. Other drugs that may be prescribed include antiviral drugs, ADD/ADHD medications and anti-anxiety drugs. Alternative/Alternative Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Treatment While the usefulness of alternative/complementary therapy may still be controversial in the scientific community, many patients experience tremendous benefits from these. Main ones include:
What Is a Hair Transplant? It's a type of surgery that moves hair you already have to fill an area with thin or no hair. Doctors have been doing these transplants in the U.S. since the 1950s, but techniques have changed a lot in recent years. You usually have the procedure in the doctor's office. First, the surgeon cleans your scalp and injects medicine to numb the back of your head. Your doctor will choose one of two methods for the transplant: follicular unit strip surgery (FUSS) or follicular unit extraction (FUE). With FUSS, the surgeon removes a 6- to 10-inch strip of skin from the back of your head. He sets it aside and sews the scalp closed. This area is immediately hidden by the hair around it. Next, the surgeon’s team divides the strip of removed scalp into 500 to 2,000 tiny grafts, each with an individual hair or just a few hairs. The number and type of graft you get depends on your hair type, quality, color, and the size of the area where you’re getting the transplant. If you’re getting the FUE procedure, the surgeon’s team will shave the back of your scalp. Then, the doctor will remove hair follicles one by one from there. The area heals with small dots, which your existing hair will cover. After that point, both procedures are the same. After he prepares the grafts, the surgeon cleans and numbs the area where the hair will go, creates holes or slits with a scalpel or needle, and delicately places each graft in one of the holes. He’ll probably get help from other team members to plant the grafts, too. Depending on the size of the transplant you’re getting, the process will take about 4 to 8 hours. You might need another procedure later on if you continue to lose hair or decide you want thicker hair. Expectations and Recovery After the surgery, your scalp may be very tender. You may need to take pain medications for several days. Your surgeon will have you wear bandages over your scalp for at least a day or two. He may also prescribe an antibiotic or an anti-inflammatory drug for you to take for several days. Most people are able to return to work 2 to 5 days after the operation. Within 2 to 3 weeks after surgery, the transplanted hair will fall out, but you should start to notice new growth within a few months. Most people will see 60% of new hair growth after 6 to 9 months. Some surgeons prescribe the hair-growing drug minoxidil (Rogaine) to improve hair growth after transplantation, but it’s not clear how well it works. Risks and Costs of Treatment The price of a hair transplant will depend largely on the amount of hair you’re moving, but it generally ranges from $4,000 to $15,000. Most insurance plans don’t cover it.
