Health - 14 November 2006

So after a week of no bowel movements, a catscan with negative results, laxatives, enemas, and a magnesium citrate drink, with no results other than fluid, My doctor told me that its probably stress and I should be fine and to just eat dried fuit and grains. Can anyone relate to assure me that ill be ok?! I havent had any serious pain, only random sharp pain and general discomfort since the beginning. My doctor tells me the sharp pain is musculuar so it has nothing to do with my bowel movements.
Will I go eventually? Im sitting here praying to poop! it sounds ridiculous, but im scared none the less.

When I was 12, I was in a cliff diving accident and I injured my back. I am now in my late 20's and have experienced an increase of pressure on my bladder. I have been to a few specialists and not one can tell me why there is pressure. One doctor said it could be Interstitial Cystitis, but was not sure because my bladder looked so healthy! Another doctor did exploratory surgery and also found everything to be healthy. I even had an MRI and guess what...healthy! I told each doctor that I have a degenerated disk (L5) and thought that I should see a chiropractor, because this may be causing my problems (they said, "NO!"). Well regardless of what they said, I finally went to see a chiropractor and after a week of adjustments to my back, my bladder is actually feeling a little better, but off course, there is still a lot of pressure. I was wondering if anyone has had a similar situation, or the same problem and if a chiropractor was the answer to your problem.

I am an uncut male. This girl I was with said I was built weird because my 4skin wouldnt retract all the way down to the base. I never thought of it too much before, why would I since that's all I know. I start from the tip and pull down and can never get passed the helmet (glans). Is this true of all guys? Kind of embarrasing to ask my friends.

you get a spot in your nose up one of your nostrils, they are so painful and you cant squeeze them and if you try people think you are picking you nose.
How do you get rid of them or prevent them?

With all of the health risks known about smoking e.g. emphysema, throat cancer, and lung cancer why in the world are people still smoking? I realize there are those people out there who just don't even care that they smoke and just won't quit, I"m not talking abou them. I'm talking about those who have never smoked and are just starting. I hate to think that "looking cool" or peer pressure is driving them to smoke. I would think we would be above that now.

I am sick of meds... I am 50 and am having success with natural energies, nutritional suppliments etc. If I ever have to be hospitalized, I would want a supportive MD. I have talked with others about my desires, and am told that If MDs in this area of FL are open, they lose credibility and have even left the area to practice. Any suggestions?

Lately I've had a very hard time realizing what's going on. I'll be in class and get completely confused because it almost feels like i'm watching class from underwater. I've been hearing voices calling my name for the past two days, althought it's not the first time i've heard voices calling me. I've been diagnosed with OCD and Depression, I have crying spells almost every night, and occasionally, with friends, I will have laughing fits. I'm leading myself to believe I'm going insane, but I'm not planning on telling my therapist because I'm afraid she won't believe me, and I'll be humiliated. Does anyone know what this could be, and what should I do?

And yes, I have a family history of mental health problems.

and DON'T call me psycho!

I am allergic to penicillin and sulfonamides. I suffered anaphylaxis from the penicillin. I've heard that you shouldn't take drugs with a similar chemical structure to those drugs, as they can cause another allergic reaction. I would like to know, just to be safe, so that I am aware of what I am taking, to prevent any dangerous error.

My gf is a tricky one. I don't want to change her, but I want to know what could be going on w/ her so I can offer the best support I can, and she's really locked up about something. We talk about stuff like this and inevitably, she just almost freezes. We have made it a little further into discussions over time, which is why I want to keep this up. My question is, what sorts of things, irrationally strong emotions, tendencies, and (big one for me) relationship patterns might one taking berevemant especially hard experience/display? She lost her father several years ago (car acc.) as young girl.
