When I saw a specialist doctor, he pointed out that I have joint hypermobility, possibly related to Marfan Syndrome. He also pointed out that it was unusual for my thumbs to bend back at the middle joint to almost 90 degrees - I always thought everyone could do that.
I have just noticed that my big toes can go upwards at a 90 degree angle to my foot.
Can anyone else do this with their toes, or is it also unusual?

I've done Weight Watchers before and I never went to a meeting. And I lost 30 pounds before I gave up after a month of being on a plateau. Now some of my family members (ones who have lost tons of weight and my mom who is now a member and goes to meetings wants me to go with her. I want to and I can afford it, but I hate weighing myself in front of other people. I know I can get over it, I just need the push.

So what should I do?

the stool is a dark brown and it is all water. i have had food poisening before and this doesn't feel like that. my stomach was never terribly upset. last night i had a sandwich for dinner with chips and pretty much i have been eating sandwiches every day and maybe yogurt for breakfast. i was wondering if my body was having an adverse reaction to the anti-inflammatories that i take. i have never had a reaction like this before. also i take vitamins. i am in saudi arabia right now but live in the US. i travel abroad all of the time but have never had an instance like this. i am 36 and in pretty good health because i am a professional athlete by trade.

My mocks start tomorrow, and I have severe IBS, which can be brought on by panic attacks due to stress.

My IBS was triggered recently by antibiotics, and at the moment I have to do to the toilet almost every hour, which is usually followed by a panic attack.

Some of my mocks are over 2 hours long, and so I dont know what to do if I have a panic attack! Help!!

because the effects have worn off and I am back to my apathetic self. It feels like a huge let down. I've taken Bupron SR150 (Wellbutrin) and Prozac together for two months now but don't feel much of anything. Maybe I should switch to Bupron xl 300
