I am always tired on weekdays i get between 6 and 7, sometimes if ever 8 hours of sleep, and all day im exhausted. When i get home from school, i often have to take naps, and even afterwards i'm still tired. Is this normal? On weekends i get about 11- 12 hours of sleep so im ususally NEVER tired on weekends. I dont even do any sports to wear me out and im too exhausted to even work out.

Walking and talking??
I know this is gonna sound stupid, but for some reason, I can't do much talking while I walk! It's like, my friend was walking with me the other day, and I couldn't say anything! I don't know why. Even he said he noticed I was quiet when I walked with him. So do all my other friends too! I mean, I can talk, but I say stuff that doesn't make sense. Not gibberish or anything but you get the point. Oh, it only happens when I have some place to be. Like walking to my classes, that's the only time I'm at loss of words... AGH! It's so hard to explain! Anyways, I wanna know if other people are like this too. Do I have some kind of mental problem?

my little girl is 3 1/2 years old and is not talking. She can say single words only and not sentences. She puts things in a line instead of stacking. She is very shy and will not play with other children besides her sister. I took her to a developing doctor and they said it may not be autism but she said it was too early to tell. What is signs to look out for of autism?

Hi, recently I lost a family member to cancer. It has got me to thinking that maybe people should be checked once a year to see if they might have beginning stages so that you could have better odds of fighting the cancer. My question is, what kindof tests are available and is it possible or worth it to see a doctor once a year for this? Does anyone else see a doctor often just to make sure they are cancer-free? (I am not talking about breast cancer specifically, just any kind of cancer.)

ok im 13 and some of my friends are saying they think i have schizophrenia but then i heard that schizophrenia isn't there until your in your old teens or early 20's so is it even possible that i could have it?
is it something thats genetic cause my dad has it?
and im not really sure what exactly schizophrenia is either so could you please make that clearer to me?
is it only voices in your head telling you to die
or is it also schizophrenia when you hear voices in your head telling you to do things that aren't always bad?
PLEASE HELP!

So I smoked some pot (far from addicted, I do it about once every 1-2 months). Sadly, three days after I did this I came down with a bug of some sort, and now I have to go to the doctor's (when I visit it will be five days since). If I know beforehand they aren't going to drug test me are they going to be able to find it?

Seeing as I smoked it recently, I'm very nervous. If they do blood tests/etc. would they find it if they aren't looking for marijuana?

So this is hecka weird. I was in class taking a test, and my stomach growled so freaking loud everyone started laughing and saying "Is that someone's STOMACH!?! GROSS!!!!" Anyway, it happens like a billion times a day, to the point where I hate taking tests... fearing that my stomach will speak again. But the weird thing is, I ate like, just 20 minutes earlier! It doesn't matter what I eat, or how much I eat (Once I ate 4 pancakes and a waffle and my stomach still growled!), it always growls. What's going on? Do I have IBS or something? Please give me long answers I need to know whats going on!

I have obbsesive compulsive disorder, and I have been going to a psycologist, but it has not helped at all. It interferes with my everyday life, and I cannot stop thinking about different things. I find myself washing my hands up to 30 times a day, so much that my hands are getting cracked. I worry about things like "if I dont do something, something bad will happen, making sure my lights are turned off before I leave, someone being mad at me, being depressed, school, my grades, germs, getting sick, getting germs on my things, chemicals, etc. I have noticed my grades slipping from A's to B's ever since this has been going on. I am currently seeing a psycologist, but he has not helped one bit, and dosent really talk about the things that are troubling me. I just want to take a medication, and be happier, and stop going to his appointments. Is what I have incureable, or is there hope? What should I do to stop worrying about things, and to have a better, happier life?

I am having two cysts removed from my back. My doc said they should come out- but I thought most cysts were benign and nothing to worry over. Most people have cysts and dont even know it. These two cysts are moveable and softer than most cysts I have felt. One is completely round and the other one is smaller but not just round- but my question is, in that area my back has been tingly a lot- annoyingly- and sometimes its tender and sore. When I push on one cyst it does hurt a little. Does that mean anything? The cysts are on my upper right back right below my shoulder.

I understand why extreme temperatures like hot or cold can bother sensitive teeth, but I don't understand why sweet foods touching a tooth can cause sensitivity? For example, a Hershey bar isn't hot or cold -- it's just an inert piece of chocolate. So why do I get a sharp painful feeling when 1 or 2 of my molars chew the chocolate? :(

For the record, my dentist checked the area in question. There are no cracks in those teeth & no decay in their fillings -- he looked with his eyes PLUS took x-rays to be certain.

He said the teeth are probably just sensitive due to my nighttime bruxism (tooth clenching and/or grinding), or perhaps also because I used to use a somewhat abrasive whitening toothpaste. (I now use Sensodyne and it's definitely helping those teeth as well as ALL my teeth!) :)

What I don't understand is why SWEET causes me more pain on the affected molars than cold or hot? What does sweet do that temperature does not? (rhyme not intentional! *grin*)

I have 3-4 small GW inside and I've been on Aldara for about 3 weeks. Now they look like they are Shredding and have white crust on them. I tried to clean the crust off and they started to bleed which I figured that's not good! =(
Now is this normal? Should I stop using Aldara until the Shredding stops? Should I just call my Doctors Nurse assistant? Has anybody experienced this before...?
This is sooo new to me....please anybody...
