Health - 24 February 2007

behind me. I have been heavy my whole life and have tried numerous diets and nothing has ever worked. Do you think that i should try more diets, etc.? or should i go with the surgery? I am not the kind of person who just sits on the couch and eats all day... I am active and I do have friends and all that good stuff...... but I just keep gaining the weight... and when i do loose weight, I always gain it back...

people with stupid answers please dont respond.. I've been through enough pain without the rude people on the internet...

I've been a diabetic for 33 years...10 years ago I developed a chemical inbalance that was diagnosed as depression. After 10 years and two different anti-depressants, taken singularly and now taking both together, my Dr. says that I' maybe bi-polar. I experience really GREAT days and every so often I experience really bad days...I hate everyone, I get very confused and emotional, extremely tired (I could sleep all day if I didn't have to go to work). I have held 7 jobs in the last 15 years...the last 4 I quit unexpectedly... everything is normal and then suddenly I would be upset over something, that seemed valid to me, and I would end up walking out. All the jobs were good paying jobs, great benefits...most people would consider "lucky" employment for someone with a GED...problem is I am starting to feel that"feeling" coming on where I freak out and quit. I can't afford to do this again...what do I do? I feel like I'm in a hurry to "find something" or "get somewhere".

do my sit ups everyday. I normally write myself notes for things i forget, but it'd be kind of embarressing to have a big note, DO YOU SIT UPS. Also i can't ask someone to remind me, they'll say your soo skinny. you don't need to work out. But I do, I just need to flatten out my stomach the rest of the way, by the spring. I can do this with sit-ups... but only if i remember. How do I remember???

Or is there a better way (safe only) then sit ups? What is it, and how will i remember IT?

i need to take diflucan for a yeast infection the augmentin gave me, but i don't know if its ok to take both at the same time. I am in alot of pain, and I don't have the type of dr. i can call and they call back, its military dr, you get a appt in about 2 weeks or so. I have diflucan from a while ago, the dr gave me extra, just in case, and well, i need to know if its allright to take this together? please, i am not a child, and no i can't call the ER or any other medical facility, cause they won't give medical advice over the phone here. Thank you so much for your help.

I'm new with Lantus insulin and my doctor knows nothing. Does anyone know the profile of this medicine, how long it works, when does it peak, is there a graph I could look at?

I have in the past stop taking my Xanax and prozac to see if I still need them. I notice things fall apart and attacks come more offten. Do you ever stop your meds to see what if? I have had depression and anxiety since 25 and im now 38.I dont mind taking my meds Because I know thay work and help me. And yoga and wheatgrass does not cut it for me. but sometimes I think im over it or heald. Do you or your family or freinds notice somthing differnt about you when you have stopped your meds. So you start up again?

It ranges from just to the left of my belly button (on the left side of my body) and slightly above and below that. It only hurts in the front and it's a stabbing, twisting, hurts-really-bad kind of pain. It hurts occationally and doesnt seem to have any kind of pattern of when it hurts. HELP. PLEASE. I seriously think i might be dying :(

I'm planning to run a 5k and I'm wondering about how I should train. Specifically, I'm not a runner and I've been training on a treadmill. I'm wondering whether running outside is going to be a shock to me. Do I need to spend some time running outside? There's just so much snow and it's cold outside :(. It's for charity, so I don't care about my time so much, but I do care about not being in pain while running. It's in about a month.

I always say something hurts (example: stomach, head, etc.) but nothing ever happens. Is it just anxiety? If so, how can I get rid of it without using pills? (the sooner the better)
