I suffer from IBS and my doctor has decided to put me on amitriptiline 10mg but never explained to me how an old antidepressent in a low dose will help me with my IBS..

can someone shed some light on this for me please.

I went snowboarding for only my second time without my insturctor with a whole lot of my guy friends on monday and they took me up to the top of a black dimond and just left me. So I was going down and i biffed it bad and landed right on my chest. It hurts to breath, and i got the hecupps so it hurts really really bad. It hurts to talk to move the slitest bit and to walk hurts too. It hurts even worse when i lay down. Even to touch near them hurts. But when i do touch them it feels......not like a rib, like it has a dip. How can I tell if I broke my ribs?

I'm trying to loose fifteen by June (most feared bathing suit season.) but I don't know how to get rid of them fast, but not by like starving myself. Between school and family, I don't have a lot of time (or money) to plan out fancy meals, or anything special. Help!! (Oh and since many people have told me exercise, and i'm not exactly and exercise person, I hate exercise actually, is there a way other than exercise?)

Thanks!!

i missed a few seconds around the time of the crash, but i've got a cut & sore spot (no bump ) on the back of my head & a long scrape & bruise on the side of my face across my temple... from what i can guess the retractable cargo cover for the back of the wagon came forward & the end got me pretty good. iwas totally confused for a couple minutes, but passed a sobriety test when the cops came. i'm all sorts of bruised up & sore, especially my neck & shoulders, but i don't know if it's all from the crash or from the fact that i had to walk 10+ miles to get home afterwards. anyone got any experience with this sort of thing?

I'm considering getting one and just want to hear about your experience. Where you happy with the results? What did you look for in the doctor? I watch all the shows on tv and it looks so painful, is it as bad as it looks?

My morning workout turn disaster
when i just finished my pushups and on my last push i just gave out and fell on the ground, then I got a very SHARP pain in my right side of the head from i think a pulled muscle from my neck.
i am lucky i was able to get up but by rubbing my head for a couple mins, the pain and the numbness went away. later in the day i have a slight neck soreness and taking advil for a headache, just never felt a pain like that before especially in my head.
Just wondering if anyone has experience a sharp pain in the head from a pulled muscle around the shoulder blade or neck

I get comments on my butt all the time,its high up on my fram and a little of a bubble shape...
or it used to be. During the week of christmas I gained maybe two pounds so its not from losing weight,but my butt's shape is longating so it looks flatter rather then pushed up and curvy. Where'd it go? Are the excercises I can do to get back the round shape?

My cold sores started appearing a couple years ago, and since then I have had the same cold sore in the same place at least 7 times in a row. It's on the upper right side of my top lip and it scarred on the lip and continued above it as well. Now it looks like I have ink smudged there.
