HOSPITALS








Breakthroughs
Consider the following: You step into a germ-free booth, where your face and body are zapped by a bright white light. Seconds later, you step out, looking 25 again — no wrinkles, no cellulite, no sags or bags. Sound great?

Protect yourself
Spring is here and the yard is beckoning. It’s time to prune, plant and get rid of last winter’s ugly reminders. But before you head outdoors for some much-deserved sunshine and frolicking in the flowers, remember to take a few precautions.
Sugar attack
Diabetes is more common than ever. More than 20 million Americans have been diagnosed with the disease, but there are many more that are unaware they have it.

Take heart
Heart disease is the No.1 killer in Wisconsin for women; doctors urge it’s time to protect your health.

Implant alternative
Dr. John LoGiudice became interested in plastic and reconstructive surgery after observing a surgeon reconstruct the face of a 16-year-old girl suffering from a rare, aggressive facial tumor.

Rethinking pain
"I’m different than other people," Daffy Duck once proclaimed. "Pain hurts me." Sorry to ruffle your feathers, Daffy, but pain hurts all of us. And in an era of instant gratification and direct pharmaceutical marketing, it seems there’s a pill for every ache.

A change of heart

At a stable near Milwaukee, there’s a horse named "My Happy Ending." How he got his name is a story with more convolutions than a dressage event at a national horse show.

Deconstructing Harry
High-achieving men often pay a steep physical price for that success. They endure — Bzzzzz … bzzzzzz

A model makeover
Many people can easily list 100 things they would rather do than visit the dentist. But for Brian Janssen, it was his No. 1 fear, thanks to the childhood trauma of having baby teeth pulled by a dentist he and his brothers called "the old crabby guy."

Brothers team up in prostate cancer fight
As a former football player, Gene Felker knew what it was like to get hit. When he learned in 1997 that he had prostate cancer, Felker felt like he’d been leveled. Surgery, months of hormone injections, and 40 radiation treatments followed. 

Finding relief
An autoimmune disease is among nature’s most mysterious disorders — a malfunction of the body’s immune system, causing the body to attack its own tissues.

Precious moments

All that Ann Quale of Mequon can remember about the seizure that struck her "totally out of the blue" on the afternoon of Oct. 17, 2007, is coming groggily back to consciousness at about the same time her two young boys got off the school bus.

Kid stuff
Most infants and young children will develop an average of three respiratory infections each year, studies show. Some infections are the result of viruses and will go away on their own, but others are caused by bacteria and require antibiotics.

Sleep relief
Many a bed partner’s sleep has been disturbed by their beloved’s nighttime symphony. Homebuilders are rescuing the sleep deprived with separate bedrooms for the nocturnally noisy that are attached, yet separated, from the master suite. 

Healthier by morning
If you don’t think good sleep is a critical part of staying healthy, then you might be surprised by some of the questions Dr. M. Sandra Casper asks her patients.

Tame those tender tootsies
News flash: Feet aren’t supposed to hurt. Just try telling that to the millions of Americans whose tootsies, ankles and soles are singing, even wailing, the blues. Granted, some of the pain is the owner’s fault — sky-high heels, extra weight, ill-fitting shoes, miles at the track. And much of that can be eliminated with sensible heel heights, a few less pounds, shoes with wider toe boxes or, for serious runners, a reduction in training. But if your feet still hurt after those solutions, it’s time to get professional help.
