This is for research for my psychological thriller, when my main character was diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia, and needed a bone marrow transplant. But is it possible that someone else other than your family is a match, when they don't match? And if so, what are the odds and percentage of that? Anyone who had Aplastic Anemic or in the health field would be great to answer this.

I have been diagnosed with Bipolar but have been pretty stable on my medication for years now. Lately I'm so sleepy I can barely function for more than a few hours at a time. I think I slept about 18 of the last 24 hours and I still feel awful. I'm not depressed though.

My girlfriend is smokin hot. Face, body, personality - she has it all and she's beautiful.

Whenever I appear in her dreams; she says I cheat on her. She laughs it off and goes onto another topic. Recently, I've had three dreams also (that I haven't told her about), where I cheat on her. These are very realistic. I feel anxious and after I've cheated, I feel regretful.

I have absolutely no desire to cheat on my girl! Why would I? She's gorgeous!

But what are our dreams telling me? This really has me disturbed. I feel like I just want to lock myself up so I don't risk screwing up.

What's my mind telling me?

There is a traditional belief in certain countries that certain combination of food stuff is to be avoided as it is considered not good for health..
For example-Eating
Fish, onion. garlic or
citrous fruits
With any of the following
Milk[not boiled]
curd, buttermilk or a combination of that.
Since this is only a belief it may or may not be scientifically proved.However these ideas are coming from ages from the experience of people.The question is do you have in your country such bliefs regarding food combinations that are to be avoided for better health.. A knowledge of such beliefs can help those interested in taking up research on the subject .

Like they did in Viet Nam. Then they pull the troups out and allow them to solve their own problems. The men who faught there and killed people 400,000 to date. Would it now be Bushes fault they died or the men who killed them? Would they be quilty before God since they were commanded to do it? Do we have a moral responsibility on a personal level for our actions?
Or does the government bear the responsibility before God for our actions? Who is held accountable?

Hey Folks,
As of lately, it's been happening a while, everynow and again I have really bad vertigo, it is pretty constant throughout the day, and at some points, I'll be sitting there and it will catch me off guard like somebody just grabbed me and shook me and I have to hold on to something or I feel like I'll fall. I have earaches sometimes, not constant though, and I always have like a numbing feeling in my brain like I'm about to pass out.
Other symptoms I've noticed are that I have to squint a lot, outside, and inside, I don't know if this says soemthing about it. Everyone keeps telling me it's an inner ear infection, but I don't know how bad the ear aches have to be.
Also, I don't know if this is the start of seizures or something. Anyone with experience please help me out. Thanks.

Had out-patient surgery 9/05. Paid all bills as they came in. 7 mths later received stmt from surgical ctr showing "Balance Forward $4500" Few lines down "Received from insurance $4250" Pay immediately $3500. I paid $ for difference between Bal. Forward and Ins. Paid immediately & questioned how $4500 less $4250 equals $3500. Was told their bills are confusing! It turns out they billed insurance $10K (what a rip off) & insurance paid $4250, hence outrageous difference. BTW, surgery took 30 mins, I was in an out in 2 hours. Did my surgery really cost $4500 (they refuse to answer that question & demand payment) & the facility are cooking the books? By sending me a bill with their mistake, am I responsible for their mistake? Can I pay $ each mth to get them off my back? Can they still demand $ in full if I make reg. mthly payments? Can they mess up my credit? Am also paying for dead beat ex-husband & a divorce so can't use credit card. Thanks.

For instance, I have these awful compulsions to be violent when I am upset about something (and not at any other time). The thing is, though, that I would never hurt someone else- I would hurt myself first.

But if I were to find a therapist, would she have to report me if I spilled my guts about the things I sometimes feel compulsed to do (even though I wouldn't)? If so, this is a Catch-22.. what then?

If someone you new was on 16 tablet's a day , they were being treated for depression, but then suddently when it seemed they were getting better their behaviour went all over the place for eg. they went to wash the dishes with milk , made no sense in what they were saying, taking in to hospital and when they woke up the next morning, remembered nothing, if this person has to get up in the night they dont remember anything the next day. they have being told that if they go to one of the bigger hospitals they can have some kind of treatment for 8 week's but would not be allowed any visitors only her husband and he can only have 3 visits , is this depression we are worried about her, she has been unwell for a long time but was making steady progress

I have been suffering from Migraine Headaches now for alittle over 5 years...I am taking medicine daily to help control them. I have now over the past year started Botox. I have had a MRI, and I see my Doctor on a regular basics.. Well I recently applied for Social Security Disability Benefits, and didn't know if anyone else has ever applied for this before for Migraines? If so, how did it go? Did you get it the first time? Did they deny it? Did you appeal it? I am 30...and really scared....I go to the E.R at least once a month or once every 2 months for a shot.... Any help would be great!! Thanks
