My mother is 75, is not overweight and has had triple heart bypass surgery (years ago) but she gets very low blood pressure and can feel very unwell. She won't tell me how low and won't go to the doctor because she does not want any more invasive treatment. is there anything she can do herself?

I started taking this in March for anxiety, nerves, being a single mom with 1 child & to reduce the side effects of coming off some other stuff. Since then I have insomnia, wake up once in the middle of night, 1:30am, 3:30 am or 4:30. I hate this. I feel at times (at work) I am in a fog like I don' t know what I am doing. I make stupid mistakes! I don't want to loos my job. Or my mind will go blank for a few seconds, messing up at work or like driving in my car gotta think for a second what I am doing. I've notice weight gain is starting up. I hate taking antidepressants. What else can I take? Do I need something for adult ADD? I am 44 yrs old. I've always had a problem with concentration or MAKING STUPID MISTAKES! Not always focused! And so tired when I get off work, no energy. Don't feel like doing anything. I also take atenonol (tenormin) for heart flutters. Could it be from the atenonol? So frustrated!

i've never really had an orgasm during sex. i've been with three guys. my ex boyfriend of a year and a half, a one night stand, and my current boyfriend and the only time i've had an orgasm was when i masturbated on my own or with my current boyfriend. i get close sometimes but then it never happens. my ex mentioned that i might have an inverted cervix but my docter didn't say anything about that when i saw her. i just want to know if there is something i can do to change it because after putting up with this for about two years after my boyfriend releases and i dont i get really frustrated and sort of mad. i never really connected the frustration with not getting off but i'm starting to think that's what the problem is. i enjoy sex so it's not as if i'm just going along with it just because, but i'm tired of not thoroughly enjoying sex. i dont know if i'm making much sense or not.

I was recently diagnosed with a bipolar type of depression. I've tried the only few medications my doc knew of because it is a newly found diagnosis. Anti-depressants don't do anything. I was on Abilify, it was basically like taking benadryl, it made me fall asleep and that's it. the other one didn't do anything, it was like drinking water I guess.

What are the side effects when you undergo sclerotherapy? In the general, will this affect my health? Is it advisable or recommendable for patients with varicous veins? Are there options to prevent the appearance of varicous veins?

When he got back, he was complaining that the storeroom was really filthy and that he had noticed dried mouse or rat droppings in some areas.
A couple of days later, he started to feel like he was coming down with a stomach flu, complained of sore joints and headaches, and began to vomit. He went to bed and never really got up again. Within two days he was severely ill and weak. His blood sugar count was down to 66, and his face and eyeballs were yellow. He was rushed to the emergency at Pali-Momi, where he was diagnosed to be suffering from massive organ failure. He died sh ortly before midnight.
No one would have made the connection between his job and his death,had it not been for a doctor who specifically asked if he had been in a warehouse or exposed to dried rat or mouse droppings at any time. They said there is a virus (much like the Hanta virus) that lives in dried rat and mouse droppings.
Once dried, these droppings are like dust and can easily be breathed in or ingested if a person does not wear protective gear or fails to wash face and hands thoroughly .
An autopsy was performed on the clerk to verify the doctor's suspicions.
This is why it is extremely important to ALWAYS carefully rinse off the tops of canned sodas or foods, and to wipe off pasta packaging, cereal boxes, and so on.
Almost everything you buy in a supermarket was stored in a warehouse at one time or another, and stores themselves often have rodents.
Most of us remember to wash vegetables and fruits but never think of boxes and cans.
The ugly truth is, even the most modern, upper-class, super store has rats and mice. And their warehouse most assuredly does!
Whenever you buy any canned soft drink, please make sure that you wash the top with running water and soap or, if that is not available, drink with a straw.
The investigation of soda cans by the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta discovered that the tops of soda cans can be encrusted with dried rat's urine, which is so toxic it can be lethal. Canned drinks and other foodstuffs are stored in warehouses and containers that are usually infested with Rodents, and then they get transported to retail outlets without being properly cleaned.

1) If you're going to make fun of/lecture/yell at me, dont even answer.
2) I've tried getting help before, didnt work.

I'm trying a different aproach now.

I'm a compulsive cutter. I do it when I'm sad, happy, bored, everything. I'm not suicidal or looking for attention. The cuts are only about 1/4 inch or less on my arm, not wrist. I dont WANT to stop, but I was wondering if I should seek medical/mental help for this or does it matter or not?

Because of metabolism, or whatever, my hair is always wet in summer. Now, the question is, the stupid question is should I have to wash my hair since it is always wet? Nasty question isn't it?
