My whole adult life I have been on paxil for panic attacks only. in nov i slowly weaned on paxil due to the inablitiy to lose weight and i just kept gaining, with the lexapro the attacks came back slowly till i was having anxiety everyday. shortness of breath as soon as i got into the car and my life is starting to feel cribbled again. so the doc put me on buspar about 3 wks ago. weaned off lexapro, been off that since last wed. ive been dizzy, i feel alwful, i hav crying bouts, and today i feel lik im going crazy. the anxiety seems to be getting better but i have these other weird feelings. has anyone ever experienced this?

I have constant daily difficulty breathing through my nose. The sensations experienced are different to that experienced when one has a stuffy nose due to a cold or flu virus or similar

This is worse in the morning.

When putting my finger on one nostril and blowing the other, i feel a sensation of pressure in my nose (around the bridge of the nose area) and feel this is in someway causing difficulty of breathing. When i blow my nose there is nothing to come down.

This has over time also caused skipped beats and regular palpitations with my heart. I would be thinking it was a heart issue if my nose didnt have the blocked feeling it does, making me think it may well be the nasal region causing the difficulty breathing.

What i would like to know is are there are natural things can be done at home to breathe easier? (say for instance leaning over a bowl full of steam, certain exercises etc) Please assist me if you can with this

I am to get a bike soon to get me out and about

On the one hand, one would think that a high-protein, low-carb diet would actually be the best diet for diabetics because meat, fish, and dairy products do not require (much) insulin and minimally impact resting blood sugar levels. On the other hand, one of the most common long-term complications from diabetes is kidney failure, and over time a protein-rich diet would place heavy demands on kidney functioning because of waste filtration of animal products. Any thoughts?

I am a little concerned that I may have done something stupid. I subsitute teach and one of my students whoose boss is a chiropractor asked if I would like my neck cracked. I told him sure why not, not thinking about.

My neck felt 100% better afterwards and has been feeling great this whole week. I can't remember when my neck felt this limber. I have had my neck bother me for years and I think this is from wrestiling.

I found out online that neck manipulation can increase your risk of stroke, especially if not done by an expert, this was a high school senior who did this.

Should I be concerned about getting a stroke?

I've never understood, with glasses, do you wear them for your lifetime to be able to see better, or is your vision eventually fixed to a decent standard?

I had an EEG done because of visual disturbances. I had spike and spike wave complexes in my occipital and parietal lobes.

the trouble is that i had this test done abroad and couldnt have things explained properly. they told me i had epilepsy, which i dont think becasue my visual disturbances are 24/7 and get worse each day.

these spike and spike wave complexes occured during the hyperventilation stage and in this time i was getting a VERY tight chest from hyperventilating.

i am awaiting an appt with a neurologist at home to get it analysed or another test done.

any pointers??

what can cause the spikes n spike waves? could it be my tight chest??? i dont know anything.

i have no history of siezure. i am having big issues with circulation and tingling fingers etc. i also had an mri - apparently clear. blood work - fine. heart - good.

could this be epilepsy without seizures? what could it be if not epilepsy?

I had hypothyroid and it went unnoticed by the doc for almost a year.. ..

So before this thyroid problem, I was very very thin, I would eat like a cow and wouldn't gain a pound and then I got this problem and in about a year I put on 50 pounds.. got horrible stretch marks and cellulites all over my legs..I used to love wearing skirts and bikinis.. Now all I want to do is hide

All this time I would diet so hard but instead I would only gain gain gain.. and it depressed me so much..

Anyways.. I'm taking medication for my thyroid and I have been for like a month now and still no difference in my weight.. and no professional dieting place will help me because WITH THAT 50 pounds GAINED I'm now only at "normal" weight for my height..

But I'm so depressed and I don't fit into anything I used to wear.. in fact I hate myself now..

I was wondering if anyone can tell me about a diet or exercise method that will help me take all this weight off.. The weight I’ve gained is 70% in my legs.. I'm desperate!
