Probably not: It is formulated to enhance the natural skin barrier and has ingredients that make it generally hypoallergenic.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

They: Would need to be frozen during the entire trip. Dry ice or liquid nitrogen is usually used to insure they do not thaw during the journey. The donor should be able to provide you with the necessary info.

Question 5

can i use physiogel a.i cream on the whole face/body or should i only use it on the affected area ?

Accepted Answer

OK any area: This is one of many creams with ceramides for use on dry skin. Why the injection? What do you mean by "allergies"? You may benefit from a visit to a dermatologist. Bring with you all creams and pills.

Question 6

acth stim test done. acth was 12 at baseline cortisol 1. at 30 minutes cortisol was 22.7 then 1hr at 29. does this indicate secondary ai?

Accepted Answer

Adrenal insuff: The results of the acth stim test suggest that ai is not an issue.  The cortisol level responded as expected to the stimulation.  If at the start of the test, you were ill then it might suggest that you have a relative ai as your initial cortisol level was 1 (ok if your healthy and not stressed, but in an ill person the cortisol should be higher in response to stress).

Question 7

i had protected sex with a prostitute on dec 26 2012 i performed cunnalingus on her i had a blood testfor hivvrvl and hbs on jan 17 it was -ve ai safe?

Accepted Answer

You are just fine: You did everything right.  Oral sex on a female is not in any way high risk for either HIV or hepatitis b.  And you wore a condom. Bravo!

in m;y experience prostitues take their health very seriously. They demand condoms. They get tested on a regular basis for sexually transmitted diseases. 

Now with your blister on your lip i would worry about herpes. That is the only test left to discuss.
