Ok, well, I am 21.... i have always heard that cancer can sometimes skip generations, and both of my grandmothers had breast cancer (one of them died from it), and my great grandmother just battled it also... my question is what age do you think that i should have an exam...do you think that i shouldnt worry about it for a few more years? or is this something i should really be worried about and should see a doctor sooner than others?

My father who is 82 and has kidney disease is scheduled to undergo a barium enema early on Monday morning. He cannot have a colonoscopy because of some heart medication he is taking so in place of that test, his doctor is having him have a barium enema. Both my sister and I are very concerned about him going through the prep as well as the test because we have heard that this test is painful since no sedative is given and afterward patients usually feel very weak and drained. At 82 years old is this really necessary? I don't believe he is having any bowel problems at all, although he has been treated for bladder cancer but is fine now. Can someone, maybe someone in the health field, give us some advice before he starts his prep?

I do beleive in heaven, but, I am talking about on earth. I wouldn't want to, but I think 300-400 years is a good range of life that way you have time to do alot and the people who are in charge of things can either get better at what they do or have four or five careers, the possibilities are endless!!! There is only a handful of people that live a century, could you imagine 3 or 4!!!

I can understand how insurance companies deny coverage to those who are overweight, have type II diabetes, or any illness that is the result of poor lifestyle. But I know that companies deny coverage to those who suffer from anxiety and depression. Why? Depression isn't deadly; heck, diabetes is worse than depression!

I barely managed to get coverage for the next three years (specialized COBRA plan through my parents) but why do insurance companies deny coverage to those with depression? Mental illness isn't the result of poor lifestyle and sometimes it's genetic.

scared and frightened, so if i hear loud shouting or arguing or music blaring full volume, im really full of panic and nerves are really bad, i jump if i hear any noise or voices outside my flat, even laughing makes me nervous and angry. this week im goin to make an appointment to thrash out all these issues, my housing, my mental health, but until i get anywhere and anything is resolved ive got to survive feeling like this and on edge and panic stations all the time

I am a very clean 30 year old woman and when I am anxious or nervous, my armpits stink, even though I am not sweating. I can work outside and sweat like crazy and not stink but if I get nervous, I can be sitting still and just start stinking. I have been to the dermatologist and what they reccomended didn't work and I now use an all natural deoderant that works a little, but I need a permanent solution. Any ideas?
