Can anyone recommend a good podiatrist/chiropodist in Ottawa, Ontario? I was diagnosed with patellofemoral syndrome which now prevents me from running and suspect the original cause are my flat feet. Thank you.

For all those vaguely interested (or who remember) I successfully defended my thesis on "The role of p2 in HIV RNA/Protein interactions" this afternoon. All being well you can start calling me "Bennett, PhD" very soon. :o) And to think that my research on HIV was started by stumbling upon misc.health.aids way back in 1998...heheh.

About three months ago I had protected sex just once. It later came to my attention that the person I slept with was well, not so monogamous. I'm concerned I may have contracted HIV from this person. A little less then two months later, I came down with a yeast infection on the inner part of my buttocks. I'm a 22 yo male, I have never had this before! Shortly before I got the yeast infection, I started having mild night sweats. These started about two and a half months after having sex. ...

Hi, My mother (she's 51) told me today that she's had diarrhea for the past year!!! She doesn't want to go see a doctor because she is terrified of the result since her father (my grand-father) died of intestinal cancer 20 years ago. She also doesn't want to tell my father because she doesn't want to stress him out. First, what can I tell her or do to convince her to consult a physician? I told her that there are many different reasons possible

Not yet noted by people with public health expertise... The phenomenon of people doing the strategy get tested together before you have sex. Together you get the standard tests .. sexually transmittable infections, .. acquired immune deficiency syndrome human immunodeficiency virus, .. hepatitis B, hepatitis A, hepatitis C and vaccinated for hepatitis B and vaccinated for hepatitis A.

Could you send me some publicly available references to these discussions, proposals, papers, etc, that discuss the methods for suggesting to people that they get tested together for standard STDs before they begin a new sexual relationship. Thanks.

Can you direct me to the web site that has a study or some kind of numbers with percentage of risk with AIDS infections in sexual contact? A text that gives detailed descriptions how one can get infected with AIDS, what are the sexual acts that are the most dangerous and how dangerous. That kind of thing. Thanks.

I sometimes have to work in noisy environments such as open offices and airplanes. Most of the noise is conversation, background music, and the like. I'm not concerned about damage to my ears -- just to my concentration. Are there any ear plugs (or other devices) that are effective at filtering out this kind of background noise so I can think and concentrate? I think I would prefer ear plugs rather than headphones because they would be lighter and cooler, but I am open to any suggestions.

Here is the evidence that something is amiss with the epidemic in South Africa. What is the significance of the year 1996? It is supposed to be the year HIV broke out in South Africa. So it is obvious to pose the question: what happened that year? There have bee dire predictions made about Uganda since 1985. What took HIV so long to make it to South Africa? And what significant event triggered it's breakout in specifically 1996 (not 1995 or 1997 or 1990)?
