UPCOMING: Interview of a wife who's husband died from amiodarone. What happened? Why? Stay tuned...  

It treats heart conditions, but what could happen to your lungs?

WE’VE ALL HEARD SOMEBODY SAY “I’VE GOT A BAD BACK”. 

OR MAYBE WE SAY IT ABOUT OURSELVES. 

IN ADDITION, COMMONLY, IN HEALTH CARE, THERE’S A LOT OF CHIT CHAT ABOUT BACKS,  WHAT CAUSES BACK PAIN, OR BACK PAIN THAT CAUSES YOUR PINCHED SCIATICA NERVES. 

YET, WHAT I WANT TO DESCRIBE TO YOU, IS A CONDITION OF A BAD BACK THAT TENDS TO PLAGUE PEOPLE IN A PROFOUND WAY. 

IT CAUSES BIG PROBLEMS IN THE FUNCTION OF THE LOWER BACK. IT’S THE TYPE OF ISSUE THAT IF YOU’RE IN THE GOLDEN YEARS… IT CAN SOMETIMES BRING YOU TO TEARS… 

OR AT MINIMUM MAKE YOUR BACK AND LEGS FEEL LIKE THEY ARE IN LOW GEAR. 

IT’S THE TYPE OF CONDITION THAT IN CERTAIN CASES YOU MAY HAVE AN X-RAY AND AN MRI OF THE LOWER SPINE AND TRIED INJECTIONS, BUT YOU’RE STILL NOT FINE.  

SO YOU’RE LEFT WITH A FEELING OF UNCERTAINTY. LIKE, HOW DOES JUST A LITTLE OR A LOT OF ARTHRITIS CAUSE THIS MUCH PAIN, NUMBNESS AND TINGLING IN MY BACK, BUTTOCKS AND LEGS? AND IS IT ALL JUST BECAUSE OF ARTHRITIS? 

OR COULD IT BE SOMETHING ELSE…

INTERVIEW: WALKER FLANNERY, M.D. ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON.

ABOUT: WE’VE ALL HEARD SOMEBODY SAY “I’VE GOT A BAD HIP” OR MAYBE WE SAY IT ABOUT OURSELVES. 

IN ADDITION, COMMONLY, IN HEALTH CARE, THERE’S A LOT OF CHIT CHAT ABOUT HIPS  WE ACHE AS WE AGE AND THEN OUR HIP JOINTS BEGIN TO RAGE

EVENTUALLY AT SOME POINT, MANY OF US WILL HAVE TO ADDRESS SOME TYPE OF BONE, JOINT OR HIP ISSUE…

….AND YOU MIGHT BE HURTING SO BAD YOU NEED A KLEENEX OR A TISSUE. 

OR MAYBE YOU’RE THE WEEKEND WARRIOR OR ATHLETIC TYPE…

AND AFTER MANY YEARS… YOU KNOW THAT NOISE OR PAIN IN YOUR HIP JUST AIN’T RIGHT… 

SO WHERE DO YOU GO….FOR A HIP THAT IS SCREAMING NO?  IT’S A FIELD OF CHOICES… BUT

WHEN IT COMES TO CHOOSING AN ORGANIZATION OF SURGEONS FOR SOMETHING AS IMPORTANT AS A HIP REPLACEMENT… 

YOU WILL WANT TO CHOOSE A FACILITY THAT HAS ITS PROCESSES AND PEOPLE ``OPERATING” LIKE A WELL-OILED MACHINE. 

INTERVIEW: CEO Brian Rose. Artesian Water Company. 

ABOUT:

AS A GENERAL RULE OF THUMB WE CAN GO WITHOUT FOOD FOR A WHILE, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO WATER, AFTER ABOUT 3 DAYS OUR BODY’S BEGIN TO HAZE.HOWEVER, JUST LIKE YOUR NEW CHEVY OR FORD , WATER SOMETIMES HAS ITS OWN SPECIAL CONTAINER TO HOLD ITSELF AND BE TRANSPORTED WHICH YOU CAN AFFORD. 

SO WHEN IT COMES TO BOTTLED WATER, WE NEED TO BE CRYSTAL CLEAR ON THIS SUBSTANCE THAT’S AT EVERY STORE BOTH FAR AND NEAR. CUZ WHATEVER IS IN THAT BOTTLE WE THROW BACK FOR A CHUG, IT’S NICE TO KNOW A BIT FROM THE FOLKS WHO CAP IT WITH A PLUG.YES,  THERE ARE WATER BOTTLING PROFESSIONALS. WHO THEIR ENTIRE BUSINESS REVOLVES AROUND… 

WATER.

INTERVIEW: CEO Jen Toivonen. Discusses the importance of water testing in homes, wells, lakes and more. What's in your water? You should know. 

ABOUT: WATER. 

WE DRINK IT. WE PLAY IN IT. WE BATHE IN IT. WE DO A LOT WITH WATER. AS A GENERAL RULE OF THUMB WE CAN GO WITHOUT FOOD FOR A WHILE, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO WATER, AFTER ABOUT 3 DAYS OUR BODY’S BEGIN TO SHUT DOWN. AND JUST LIKE YOUR BROWN HAIR OR BLUE EYES , WATER HAS ITS OWN PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS WHICH ARE IN THE GROUND AND UP IN THE SKIES. SO WHEN IT COMES TO WATER, WE NEED TO BE CRYSTAL CLEAR ON THIS SUBSTANCE THAT’S BOTH FAR AND NEAR. 

WHY?

WELL, WHATEVER IS IN THE WATER WE DRINK, OUR SOIL, OR THE IN THE LAKES WHERE WE HAVE FUN OR TOIL, THAT WATER AND WHAT’S IN IT, WILL BE ABSORBED IN US THEREFORE IT’S GOOD TO KNOW IF SOMETHING WILL GIVE OUR INTESTINES US FUSS...BUT THERE’S NO WAY WE CAN BECOME A CHEMIST OR BIOLOGIST OVERNIGHT…

SO, THANKFULLY THERE ARE WATER PROFESSIONALS. WHO THEIR ENTIRE BUSINESS REVOLVES AROUND…
