Three years ago, i had a complex ovarian cyst removed. The Dr. did not remove my ovary, and informed me at the time that the ovary had not been compromised in any way. Also, he confirmed I didn't have any other issues (ex. endometriosis, etc.). I just went to the same Dr. yesterday for an exam and he told me because of my operation, I am limited to the amount of eggs I have (basically, if I want to have kids, I have to have them in the next two years.). I am 31, and I feel what he said made no sense. Does anyone know if having a complex ovarian cyst removed compromises fertility? I've never heard of such a thing, and I haven't had any problems since. He also asked me if I was seriously dating anyone and refernced marriage which I thought was completely inappropriate.

I started weight watchers this week to shed the last of my baby weight (I gave birth on Jan. 10th). I am excited to use my flex points when my husband and I go out for dinner this weekend. Any ideas for some good types of food to use them on? I'm not really craving anything, just looking for a good meal out to celebrate a week of sticking to my 20 points!

My hands have hurt for two years post accident with neck injury. Duh, i can't get any doctors to say that my hand pain is coming from my neck. They say CTS but my thumbs and forefinger are fine, perfectly fine. Here are the symptoms: Before I started taking Lyrcia for nerve pain (hello?), the pain in my hands, mainly my pinkies and ring finger hurt so bad that I lost my job as a legal secretary. Yes, I may have CTS, but it's not the median nerve as much as something else. MY hands are swollen, larger than they should be, completely numb on the top of my hands and down the side of my hand along the pinkie and down to the wrist. What is it?

I simply don't want to go to bed, and keep pulling all-nighters (not in a row). My sleep schedule is totally upside down, backwards, all over the place. The idea of bed makes me feel lonely and isolated.

Hi, i am 30 years (2007) and having headache since 1992, it makes total of 15 years. i use to have Crocin(Indian brand of painkiller, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/crocin).... And sometime's Disprin. Almost daily i had to have either one of these before going to bed otherwise i could not sleep. I do not take both together. if i wake up early around 6:30 am, i do not feel pain in head otherwise i will 100% get headache if i wake up on or after 7/8 am. If i eat/drink ice-cream, cold-dinks, yogurt, milk pain will strike any time of the day else it will only start around 9-11 pm in night. it also depend on my work/movement, if i work more there are very good chances that it wont strike. mostly it strike at back of my neck and on the right side of skull above the ear and front of head. any suggection!

I need to lose about 30 lbs. I'm female - 5'3. I have been doing a in- home walking program for 30 minutes about 3 days a week. For breakfast I'm usually eating a cup of special K cereal. I eat a snack about 9:30 a.m. of fruit, or low-fat sugar free yogurt. For lunch a Lean Cuisine and a small supper. Why has my weight loss come to a hault. Its so frustrating

Every now and then I feel like something in my head has popped, weird I know, and then that part of my brain feels tingly and as I get older a headache radiating from that spot occurs. I've had this since I can remember, but I'm curious. What is it?

A few weeks ago, I started counting my calories and exercising daily. The first week I lost 3 pounds, but this morning I weighed myself and I'm back to my starting weight. Everyone is telling me that I look like im losing weight, but the scales say different. My diet consists of about 1200-1300 calories a day and I exercise (lightly) every night (sometimes I exercise harder depending on weather, etc). Can someone please explain how "weight loss" works or recommend something?

This is not insomnia anyway, but more to my choice. maybe i'm crazy, when i got a lot (really a lot) of things need to be done that day (work, homeworks), sometimes i don't sleep, for 1 day (or 2 days) at all, not even a single hour in 24 - 48 hours. I know this is bad for my health, but how bad that actually is, should i stop doing that, cuz i'm starting to enjoy (?) that, as there will be more things can be done, even though i must 'pay' for that lack of sleep, like: sleeping for 18 hours + on that coming sunday. If you're a doctor, your answer will be greatly appreciated. thanks a lot
