I would like to take part in paid Clinical Trials but I got turned down due to Epilepsy?
I'm a bit confused because, for example, with an eczema trial, what if somebody with Epilepsy had ecxema, are they not allowed the medication. Surely they have to find out at some point whether they can use the medication on people that are also on other medications? Is there anywhere that does these kind of trials that would want me?
2 AnswersAlternative Medicine8 years agoI'm working for a US company online whilst living in the UK. What are the implications?
I mean on terms of tax, minimum wage.
Which minimum wage do we follow, US or UK?
I know in the UK tax comes out of the wage automatically, but obviously if that happens working for an abroad company it goes to the US.
1 AnswerUnited Kingdom9 years agoI've had 2 fits in the space of 3 weeks with a past history of epilepsy, my mums.....?
banned me from playing Rock Ban because it contains quite a lot of flashing lights. I always thought that when it's flashing lights that set a fit off it was instant. Am I correct or can it delay, I last played Rock Band last night about 11pm, I had the fit this morning about 12pm, 13 hours later.

2 AnswersCorporations1 decade agoI found a 6 legged medium size about an inch long green bug in my bathroom with thin legs?
I know it isn't much detail, but I was just wondering what it could be, it was like a greenfly, but I don't see how any greenfly, who are usually about 1mm long, can be that big.

2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks1 decade agoWhen I stand up from laying down about 5-10 seconds later I get really dizzy and my vision goes blurry?
I just had the worst ever one of these where I couldn't see where I was going it was that blurry and had to slow down, luckily I was indoors. Is this normal, I know it's normal to get dizzy if you go from laying down to standing up but this is on quite a big scale, although it only lasts from a few seconds to about 10-15 seconds at worst.

When I pull my charger out, the laptop just turns off, as though it was really at such a low power that once the charger was pulled out the laptop would just cut out. Doesn't shut down, just..stops basically. Like the power supply from the battery has been cut. There is no power at all going into it anymore

1 AnswerOther - Health1 decade agoI stopped weight lifting for a while and am starting again. Doing 200 dumbell lifts a day. 4kg a hand......?
And also doing 30 lifting them up from my side to shoulder height.
I plan to increase this as I build more muscle. I used to do weight regulary early last year but stopped because I didn't have the time and just basically, couldn't be bothered. I'm 14, I was 6ft when i was 13 so I don't know how tall I am now. Even without weight lifting I maintained a lot of muscle on my arms for my age. Is 200 a day with 4kg in each hand, 8kg altogether a large amount for my age and size. I do plan to increase it this is a starting ammount. Also will it badly effect my health.

3 AnswersProgramming & Design1 decade agoI have an old 60GB PS3 and it's starting to overheat quite a bit (age) Is there anywhere in the UK that....?
...does general repairs
It's the gell conductor stuff that's probabally messed up due to age and when it was young I left it on overnight because it didn't heat up when it was doing something. I could buy the gell and take the PS3 apart and so it myself but I'd rather a professional do it. I have no warrenty at all and Sony have suspended Continuous Play due to people abusing it. Takes about 15 minutes for it to start getting hot. I could leave it on overnight and then the next evening was when it started getting hot.
1 AnswerPlayStation1 decade agoBroken Nose Been Reset Question?
I'm getting my nose reset soon after it had a rather nasty 3rd break. They have asked for a picture before it broke. But all the pictures I have, apart from ones as a young child, which obviously I couldn't use as the nose would be too small, have a broken nose. I broke my nose in Reception of Primary School, they said it should heal in place but it didn't, although that was more of just a small crack. Then I broke it again when i was 8-9. Never went to hospital. As a kid I had a perfect nose according to my mum. And I've broke it 3 times so you can guess she isn't too pleased but I'm hoping for the best reset possible, how will they do it if they don't know what it would look like at my age when it wasn't broken, even I don't know that lol
