INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Make sure the probe is snug around the finger. If your oximeter has a monitor attached, make sure this sits above the fingernail. If your oximeter has a plug, be sure the cable runs through the back of your hand. This helps minimize motion, as well as ensures that a good supply of blood will get to your finger. Holding your arm up in the air will drain blood away from the test site and lead to an inaccurate reading. After being placed on your finger, the oximeter should display your readings within about five to 10 seconds. If your model also measures pulse, this may take a little longer to calculate fully. Oximeter display styles vary, but the oxygen saturation reading is usually the top number, in percentage form. Consult the device's owner's manual if you are unsure how to read your oximeter's display If the oximeter fails to display a reading, try removing it and placing it back on your finger. If this doesn't work, make sure there are fresh batteries in the machine. Some newer oximeters store data or transmit readings to a computer. If you don't have one of these, make sure to write down all your readings and show them to your doctor. A normal oxygen saturation reading is 95% or above; 92-94% indicates that there may be a problem. Lower than 92% could be an emergency. If your hands aren't cold, you aren't wearing nail polish, you didn't move during the test, and the oximeter wasn't exposed to direct light, you should contact your doctor immediately if you read below normal.

SUMMARY: Clamp the probe onto your index finger. Rest your hand on your chest at your heart level. Assess your reading. Keep a log of your readings. Contact your doctor if your oxygen reading is low.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Stale, day-old bread will work the best for this recipe. The more rustic and hearty the bread is, the better! Keep beating the eggs until they are smooth and pale yellow with no streaks remaining. You can do this by hand with a whisk, or you can use a stick blender. Beat everything together once more with your whisk until the texture is smooth and the color is consistent. For a more traditional flavor, add 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon. A nonstick frying pan will work the best, but you can use a regular one as wellgrease it well with about 1 tablespoon (15 grams) of coconut oil (or non-dairy butter). The pan needs to be hot enough to sizzle a droplet of water. Make sure that you soak both sides of the bread in the batter and that it is completely soaked through. Hold the slice over the bowl for a moment and let the excess batter drip back into it. Place the bread onto the pan. If your pan is big enough, you can add another slice of batter-soaked beadjust make sure that the edges are not touching. Fry the bread for 2 to 4 minutes, flip it over with a spatula, then cook it for another 2 to 4 minutes. It's ready when it is crispy and golden-brown. The pan may start to turn dry after a few batches. If this happens, simply add more coconut oil (or non-dairy butter) to it. Keep the already-made toast by covering it with a clean towel. You can serve it jut as it is, or garnish it with your choice of toppings. Maple syrup and/or non-dairy butter are the most traditional, but you can also try toasted coconut or a sliced banana.

SUMMARY: Cut the bread into -inch (1.91-centimeter) slices. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. Mix in the coconut milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Dip a slice of bread into the batter. Fry the bread on the pan for 2 to 4 minutes on each side. Transfer the toast to a plate, then cook the rest. Serve the French toast.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Lipomas generally appear as dome-shaped lumps that can range in size, usually between the size of a pea and roughly 3 centimetres (1.2in) in length. If you have a lump under the skin on your body this size, it may be a lipoma. Some lipomas may be larger than 3 centimetres (1.2in). Additionally, you might not be able to fully feel them. These lumps are formed by an abnormal and rapid increase of fat cells in the area. However, if your bump is larger, harder, and less mobile, it may be a cyst. Additionally, cysts may feel tender, could become infected, and might drain. Lipoma tumors are generally pretty soft to the touch, meaning that they will move under your finger if you press down on them. These sort of tumors are only slightly attached to the area surrounding them, so while they will stay relatively in place, you will be able to make it move around slightly under your skin. This will help you determine whether you have a lipoma, a tumor, or a cyst. Cysts and tumors have more defined shapes and are firmer, compared to a lipoma. If the lipoma is deep in your tissue, which is rare, it may be hard to feel its firmness and to determine its overall size. While lipoma tumors are generally painless because the lumps don't have any nerves, they can sometimes become painful if they grow in certain spots on your body. For example, if the tumor is near a nerve and the tumor starts to grow, it might put pressure on the nerve, causing pain. Talk to your doctor if you start feeling pain near a lipoma spot. Check with your doctor if you notice a new mass growing or if a lump changes shape or size. It's important to get a qualified diagnosis rather than self-diagnosing your problem so that you can get proper treatment for your condition. Your doctor will be able to determine the difference between a lipoma and other types of tumors and cysts.

SUMMARY: Look for a small bump under the skin. Feel the bump to determine how soft it is. Pay attention to any pain you feel. Have the lump looked at by a doctor when it appears or if it changes.
