Why in Malaysia the doctor don’t allow us to take vitamin and supplement? What do you thinks about this?
What are vitamins?
Vitamins are substances that your body needs to work properly and keep you in good health. Most vitamins cannot be made by the body, so they have to be provided by your diet in small regular amounts.1
Why do I need vitamins?
Your body uses vitamins to do a number of things, including building and maintaining tissues and organs. Vitamins provide energy, boost the immune system, keep skin healthy and help keep the brain and nervous system in good working order.2

DRUGS are chemicals that can prevent, prolong the life, treat other effects of a health condition, improve the quality of life, and/or cure ailments and diseases, or alter the function of any part or chemicals inside the body. These drugs have approved therapeutic claims.
Drug Side Effects
A side effect is usually regarded as an undesirable secondary effect which occurs in addition to the desired therapeutic effect of a drug or medication. Side effects may vary for each individual depending on the person’s disease state, age, weight, gender, ethnicity and general health.
Side effects can occur when commencing, decreasing/increasing dosages, or ending a drug or medication regimen. Side effects may also lead to non-compliance with prescribed treatment.Medication
A medication or medicine is a drug taken to cure and/or ameliorate any symptoms of an illness or medical condition, or may be used as preventive medicine that has future benefits but does not treat any existing or pre-existing diseases or symptoms.
(Redirected from Adverse effect (medicine))
In medicine, an adverse effect is a harmful and undesired effect resulting from a medication or other intervention such as surgery. An adverse effect may be termed a "side effect", when judged to be secondary to a main or therapeutic effect, and may result from an unsuitable or incorrect dosage or procedure, which could be due to medical error. Adverse effects are sometimes referred to as "iatrogenic" because they are generated by a physician/treatment. Some adverse effects only occur only when starting, increasing or discontinuing a treatment. Using a drug or other medical intervention which is contraindicated may increase the risk of adverse effects. Adverse effects may cause medical complications of a disease or procedure and negatively affect its prognosis. They may also lead to non-compliance with a treatment regimen.
The harmful outcome is usually indicated by some result such as morbidity, mortality, alteration in body weight, levels of enzymes, loss of function, or as a pathological change detected at the microscopic, macroscopic or physiological level. It may also be indicated by symptoms reported by a patient. Adverse effects may cause a reversible or irreversible change, including an increase or decrease in the susceptibility of the individual to other chemicals, foods, or procedures, such as drug interactions.

Chemotherapy
The overall impact of chemotherapy on cancer survival can be difficult to estimate, since improved cancer screening, prevention (e.g. anti-smoking campaigns), and detection all influence statistics on cancer incidence and mortality. In the United States, overall cancer incidence rates were stable from 1995 through 1999, while cancer death rates decreased steadily from 1993 through 1999.[1] Again, this likely reflects the combined impact of improved screening, prevention, and treatment. Nonetheless, cancer remains a major cause of illness and death, and conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy has proven unable to cure most cancers after they have metastasized.
As is obvious from their origins, the above cancer chemotherapies are essentially poisons.
Side-effects
The treatment can be physically exhausting for the patient. Current chemotherapeutic techniques have a range of side effects mainly affecting the fast-dividing cells of the body. The most common side effects include (dependent on the agent):[citation needed]
Pain, Erythema, Nausea, Diarrhea or constipation, Anemia,Malnutrition
Hair loss, Memo

Hair loss after 1 week of chemo?
I had chemotherapy a week ago and I’ve already lost 1 clump of hair on my head and a few nose hairs. It’s probably not unheard of, but I’m wondering if anyone else either has or knows someone who has had the same kind of quick hair loss from chemo?
I’m sorry you have to go though chemo. My sister went through the same thing and ended up losing her hair. The good news is it will come back when done.
what will the hair transplant cost in india?
does it really work and is there any side effect?
Hi! I got hair transplant done in India at Dr Bhattey’s Center in January. The procedure cost me US$1.5 per root. The experience was great and the density was very very nice. I forget the clinic phone number but you can search " Dr Tejinder Bhatti" on yahoosearch and get his number.
Best wishes.
Do you think that this is worth posting online properly?
So i started to write the whole story to this and then took a snippet for my english coursework, original writing. I want you to be as honest as you can and tell me whether its any good, i guess.

"Listen to me, keep your eyes open Dan, don’t you dare close them." I screamed shaking his arm as his began to shut. tears were streaming down my face uncontrollably; all i could hear was myself screaming and the noise of Doctors and Nurses hustling around me, fighting to stop the machine singing a loud clear beep.
"Dan don’t, please. Stay here, stay with me Dan!" I kept screaming shaking his arm vigorously hoping I could wake him from the nightmare. I remember taking hold of his now cold hand and pressing it to my enlarged stomach, "Dan can you feel him? Dan don’t leave us, don’t leave me here alone. Open your eyes!"
There was no response.
People hustled around me calling out digits and names of medicines; the machine still singing its long never ending beep, one that haunted my dreams. I could hear myself breathing heavily trying to stay conscious through my tears. My baby, our baby kicking violently within my stomach, he knew what was happening.
There laid my love, my best friend, my husband, a father attached to countless wires and tubes. His body moving like a dummy as Doctors hurried around him. His eyes were empty. The clear baby blue that usually sparkled with passion has turned hard and emotionless. He looked so pale so fragile, his skin no longer had its tanned colour and his cheeks no longer a rosy pink.
This was my love, my best friend, my husband.
"Dan listen to me, we did not fight for three years to give up now. Do you hear me? You cannot leave me here on my own to bring up our child, what am I meant to tell him? For goodness sake Dan come back to me now!" I screamed as his eyes were now open but as i reached out to take hold of his hand a Doctor told me it was an involuntary reaction to the amount of drugs they were pumping through his body.
Suddenly the machine sung a new song, a song of countless beeps. "Dan!" I wailed now smiling that he had come back to me. His eyes began to flutter and widen as he looked for something, for someone?
I put myself in his eyeline and smiled, "Hay- Hayl." Dan tried to speak but instead let out a quiet whimper. "Shhh, Dan don’t ever do that to me again," i whispered back as I kissed his cheek. His skin was stone cold and my lips were able to feel his cheekbone through his skin.
"Hayley, Hayley?" Dan mumbled louder, I turned to face him. he looked petrified his eyes wide with horror. Slowly Dan placed his hand on my stomach, on our baby., "I like the name george." he smiled to me, the first time he had smiled in a long while. Something there told me maybe he’d be alright. "Shhh, you’re ment to tell me this in two months time." I laughed, happy that he was back and happy tat he actually looked better than before. "No. no hayley I’m-"," dan tried to speak but all of a sudden let out a groan and his smile turned into pain, severe pain. "I love you Hayl-…I love you."
The machine turned back to singing the flat toned one continuous beep. Dan froze, his hand fell from my stomach and hung lifeless over the edge of the hospital bed. "Dan? Dan stop come back, DAN?!" I began to scream aonce more and cried like i never had before.
I realised that this time there were no rush of Doctors and Nurses fighting to stop the machine singing, instead they stood there at the foot of the bed staring at me. "Why aren’t you doing anything? Hurry do something, he’s dyi-…. DO SOMETHING!" I scaremmed at the one Doctor his eyes locked on mine. I wasn’t given an answer there eyes told me enough, to give up.
I quickly stood up and went to the end of the bed where syringes of medicine sat unused, "Do something anything please. I’m begging you I can’t be alone." I wailed holding out the needles to a nurse who looked like she too was about to cry. She simply turned her head away from me and sniffed trying to stop the tears from escaping.
"Time of death, one thirteen pm." The voice of one of the doctorrs echoed around the room. I stared at him in horror. "No, no no no NO! do something anything please……..help please!" I screamed running over to Dan. There were still no Doctors or Nurse around me helping to save him, nobody."I am so sorry for your loss Mrs Greene is there someone we can call for you?" The Doctor asked me as he stood awkwardly behind me. Loss? I thought to myself Dan’s gone?
It hit me hard. I screamed, wailed, cried and whimpered as i sunk to the floor on my knees.
Now it’s the year of 2010, February two eyars after Dan’s Death. I’m sat on a bench, on our bench, the bench where Dan asked me to move in with him, the bench where we sat when I told Dan we were going to have a baby. Now I sit ehre without Dan but with our baby, two years old and image of him.
Messy brown hair, baby blue eyes rosy pink cheeks and the dimp
If this were ready for formally posting online, you would know it and wouldn’t have to ask here. Your instinct is right. It still needs work. Especially the dialog and the repetitiveness.
